"Where's my dad" Sophia asked again watching Adrian wipe his blade on the sheets.
"And what are you going to do to us"
Pearl asked looking at the blade.
Adrain just smirked and continued with cleaning his dagger.
"You know..." Sophia said ignoring Pearl who was telling her to keep shut. "I expected less from you Adrian. I just knew you had it in you. I knew you were going to betray my father the first day I saw you. But I never knew you could stoop so low as to torture an old man just for your selfish desires".
Adrian turned suddenly and flung the dagger. It struck the wall just an inch away from Sophia's face. Then it fell on the floor with a clatter. Pearl shook violently already sweating but Sophia just smirked.
"You missed" Then she adds knowingly. "Intentionally"
Adrian picks up the dagger surprised that she was not even shaken from what just happened.
"Sophia it's enough" Pearl said glaring at her.
"I know you can't hurt us because you need us alive. You can't get anything out of my dad because you would have just left long ago. So you want us to be like the bait which our dad would have to save by giving in to your filthy demands"
"For a spoilt Spanish brat, you're quite clever and very intelligent" He smiles at her. "I like that"
Sophia was about to say something else but Adrian's face became serious immediately.
"You're right...I won't kill you. I want you alive. But who said anything about not hurting you"
