"what the hell are you doing? Are you stalking me?" said the detective and went for her gun before remembering that she was in her pajamas.

"relax, detective; I'm as surprised as you are. I genuinely thought that you came here to ask me more questions. I didn't know that you lived here when I bought this place."

"you bought the place," there came another shock for the detective "how could you? You were broke the last time I checked, which was only four days ago."

"I don't think I need to explain myself to you if you are not on official business. Now, if you still want coffee, I think I have some," said Alex and went in to get the coffee without waiting for an answer.

"thank you," the detective said before the door was completely shot in her face.

Alex didn't even say goodbye and closed the door before rushing to the secret room, grabbing the secured phone, and dialing number three.

"what the hell? Did you know she lived here? Did you set me up?" asked Alex without even letting number two say a word.

"yes, I knew. And I knew that she was the detective on your murder case. It's just a little exercise for you to learn how to …."

Alex almost crashed the phone when he heard her answer.

"fuck you," he said and then hung up.

He was too mad to think straight, so he decided to just go to bed and sleep.

Whenever Alex felt stressed or angry or any kind of negative emotion, he slept, and the next day, he could look at the situation with a new view.

It was like a defensive mechanism that he had had since he was a kid.

The next day after he woke up, he was stress-free and decided to have a nice breakfast before calling number three again.

"I won't stand for that kind of behavior a second time; do you hear me?" said number three as soon as she picked up the phone.

Alex didn't know whether laugh or cry when he heard that, but he remained calm and said, "can you explain, please?"

"it's just an exercise to see if you can hide under the nose of the people that you want to run away from. I also gave you other choices for places to live, and you could have even chosen a place of your own. So it's not my problem that you didn't investigate the place enough."

"I understand"

Alex still had more questions to ask about the matter but decided to drop the matter for the time being.

"is the investigation on Zack Rid finished?" asked Alex

"not yet, but I think you find what I have on him very satisfying."

"what is it? Send me the file."

"I will send it when it's finished. Before that, it can bring more harm than good."

After that, number three ended the call.

Alex's thoughts were a mess. He couldn't think straight; this would change everything. All his half-finished plans were useless now.

So Alex did what he did best. He slept.

He slept and woke up and then slept again until his mind was clear.

'I have to frame one of the other MA participants for my kills. That's the only way the spotlight can move from me. but who?' he thought

After thinking about it some more, Alex stood up and went out. When he opened the door, he saw detective Gray posing to knock on the door.

_ _ _ _ _

Inside a luxurious bedroom, on a king-size bed, a man not older than 30 and two women lay naked.

The man was panting with a big smile on his face. He came out of the bed and went to the door.

"don't move, ladies; master will be back soon."

As he was going out of the door, he grabbed a towel and wrapped it around himself.

Right after the door closed, the expression on the man's face became serious and gloomy.

He went to the kitchen, grabbed a milk box, and drank from it.

Then he went back to the hall where the bedroom was located and unlocked the door in front of the bedroom door.

There was a complete set of knives and surgical equipment inside the room. He went for the table next to the opposite wall, grabbed a phone, and dialed a number.

"number four here. Is there any new improvement on the three?"

A deep voice from the other side of the phone answered, "no, but I have information regarding the other subjects you told me to investigate."

The man didn't seem satisfied. He hung up the phone, grabbed two full syringes, put them in his towel's pocket, and then went into the bedroom with a big smile.

"So, where were we"

The two girls giggled and looked at him playfully before looking at each other and kissing.

The man took out the towel and carefully put it on the right side of the bed before going into bed.

"Now, now, leave some space for master too," said the man as he separated the two girls and went between them.

He grabbed the breasts of one of them and started playing with them under the other girl's jealous eyes.

"don't worry, baby, we will get to you soon."

The man started biting the other girl's breast while still playing with the first ones.

Then he stopped and said, "how about we make it a little more fun" and brought eight ties out of the drawer next to the bed.

The girls looked at the ties playfully and brought their hands forward for their master to tie to the bed.

The man grabbed one of the girl's hands and tied it to the bed before going to her feet and doing the same.

Then he told the other one to lay on the first girl face down and tied her too.

"what are you going to do with us, master," said the girl on top while giggling.

The man spanked her hard before saying with an ominous voice, "you will find out soon enough, beach."

The girls were a little startled by the sudden change in character but didn't say anything and waited.

The man got out of the bed and went to a closet near the door, and unlocked its door.

The two girls looked curiously, but when the closet door opened, both were terrified.

"Master, what are you going to do with those. I can't handle that much," said the first girl with a terrified tone.

"yes, master. that's not a nice joke… please untie me; I want to go home," said the second girl

"shut up. You don't have a say in this. You had to think of it when you decided to sell yourselves for money," the man shouted and grabbed what looked like a very thick stick out of the closet.

The girls started to beg to be released, but the man ignored them and emptied the closet one toy at a time.

"Now, which one of you want to be the first."

The two girls started crying and shouting, but nobody seemed to hear them.

"don't shout; it will only make me want to play with you more." Said the man before penetrating one of the girls with the thick stick.

The girl screamed in pain and tried to release herself from the tie but to no avail.

The other girl also tried to escape but couldn't due to how strong the man had tied her to the bed.

The man went back and put on a glove on a black glove on one of his hands before saying, "unfortunately, we don't have another stick, so you have to bare my fist."
