Chapter 25: A gift

October 31, 20XX (Sunday)

In a secret room of the auction hall,

"Boss, are you just going to let her get in there?" Christian who followed Alessandro for the auction that day, could not help but asked. Since the man had suddenly asked him to reveal some news about a past person, and had told him to held an auction at the exact place where the dungeon is held at.

Alessandro calmly sipped on his wine, unfazed about what was about to happen. His eyes were deep and unfathomable, "Why not, isn't it fun?" he smirked, finding Luciella every movement from the screen very amusing.

Christian looked at Alessandro, as though he saw a creep. He always knew his boss was a little weird, and psychotic. But he did not know it was to that extend, where Alessandro clearly know what Luciella was trying to find.

He did not want to help her, but set a chess game for her to play in. His end goal was to entertained himself, from her actions. He want to know till how far can Luciella go for her vengeance.

Alessandro could have helped her, but he chose not to. Things would be dull with no meaning, if everything was spoon feed. There was still somethings he does not get, hence he wanted to see what she was truly looking for.

Since he knew she would never tell him, even if he asked. "Old Master has been trying to contact you, if he knows about..."

"She is my prey, nobody stands in my way." Alessandro had a look of possessiveness and a slight tinge of obsession towards his new found feelings.

"Understood, Master." Christian curtly bowed a deep 90 degrees before getting out of the room to handle the situation well. Though he did not know what the man wants, but what he needed to do still had to be done.

Alessandro licked his lips, feeling thirsty for an unknown reason. He felt weird, for him he had always gotten what he wanted by his own way. But this time round, he decided to stand by the side and see.

He could owned her right away, and find out what was the thing that got him hanging. But he did not for some unexplainable reasons, he was determined to find out his new found feelings of excitement in his dull life.

----------

Luciella who had made her way in the underground dungeon, throughout the way. She had skillfully dodged every surveillance, without getting caught. Walking in the dark dungeon, it was slightly chilly inside, she looked at the time making sure she was not taking too long.

Walking along the dark lane, she found a few flights of spiral staircase. Calmly strolling down, she saw some gory scenes. There were numerous cells, with initials crafted on the side of the cell. From 01-2489 to 10-6182. The initials were slightly tricky, it was actually a code to find the prisoner in the maze like dungeon.

It shows the route to take to find the one she was looking for, when she finally stopped in front of the cells. Her eyes glint in malice, pick locking the cell lock. She professionally unlocked it, stepping into the disgusting slimy cell with blood spilled on the ground.

A woman was tied with chains, it could be seen that the woman was in her twenties. Her eyes were drooped lifeless, as though given up on life. Her body was naked without any clothes on, there were many needles stuck onto her body.

Her legs were almost cut-off, her flesh was half dropping where a tear could be seen on the flesh. Her bones could be seen, maggots can also be seen eating away her flesh. The woman was still half conscious, a very apparent tattoo was at her inner thigh.

The woman had a black hair and slightly elegant face, amid the torture. "Ela...Elaina Walker?" The woman eyes shot open, her mouth agape. She looked as though she saw a saver, one that can finally sentence her to death.

Luciella laugh coldly, her eyes shined with killing intent. She slowly walked towards her, bending down. With her gloved hands, she took down her mask. "Aren't you delighted to see me, old friend?"

"Ha!" Caroline Robinson could not help but laugh crazily, "If my life is what you want, just kill me already!" she yelled, a look of despair on her face.

Luciella shook her head, taking out her knife. She trailed it across her only unharmed face, making Caroline shiver in fear.

"No, that won't do it now will it?" She stopped right near her eyelid, "Say, if I stabbed your eyes..." her hand that was holding the knife, went nearer to her eyes.

"Will it make you hurt like how my brother did?" "AHHHH!!!" Before Caroline could say any further, Luciella cut open her eyebags. Neither blinding her, nor letting her have her way.

"GET IT OVER WITH ALREADY!" Caroline struggled on her chains, helplessness was shown on her eyes.

"Urgh!" Caroline grimace in pain when Luciella punched right into her face, Luciella eyes were extremely emotionless. Devoid of any emotions, "And what do I have to do, to let you suffer the exact same pain my sister had?" she spoke, questioning herself.

"Ha..HAHAHAHAHA!" Caroline laughed, as though she realized something.

Luciella patience started to run thin, she took her knife and sliced Caroline's mouth. Making the woman shuddering in utmost pain, "What are you laughing at?"

"Laughing at how ridiculously naive you are!" Her body shook in pain, but she still continue laughing.

Luciella emotionlessly stared at her, "All along you thought I was the one who brought your sister and brother demise?.....Have you stop and think about your father, is he really not into any of that mess?"

Luciella still remained emotionless, she did not show any signs of shock. Making Caroline stunned, surprised evident on her face. After a minute, Luciella stared straight into her eyes.

Standing up, she took out a transparent liquid from behind her. "I came here for a gift, I hope you like it." with that she poured the liquid down Caroline, "AHHHH, Just kill me...PLEASE!" wailing could be heard, as the acid starts to dissolves her skins and flesh.

Luciella stood there lifeless, 'Humanity really sucks.' she felt cold in her already frozen heart.

She stood tall, as she stared down at her. Pointing her gun at Caroline's head, "Child, that is enough for now." before Luciella could shoot her, she was back hugged by a man.

Her hands were being forcefully gripped by Alessandro, who tried to restrain her. "You finally showed yourself?" Alessandro eyes slightly widened in amusement and surprised that the woman knew he was there.
