Revenge and Execution

Boch slammed his desk, shouting at his men, "How did you allow that girl to escape, didn't I tell you lot, that used sex doll is my key to becoming the next head of the family, didn't I tell you that you can do whatever to her just don't let that lass escape!"

Boch looked down to his hands, cold sweat built up in his clenched fists…

"Fuck…"

Fidgeting with his hands he cussed a few more times.

"He was trying to use me as the tool to rise onto the seat of the head of family," Fia explained, opening up to the group, her voice shaky still shook from her six years of getting assaulted by soldiers and other nobles alike, "If he had me in his hands he could guarantee himself the position by stating that he's the head of two branches."

"..." 

Julian was silent.

"Fuckin' unacceptable, these nobles doing anything for power… Losin' their humanity, fucking power obsessed creeps." Heyrm mumured from the corner of his mouth.

"If there is no more need for me, I'll take my leave now, even if I stay for longer it wouldn't benefit either of us." Hew said as he headed towards the door.

"…"

"No Hew, you should stay… We need your help, you're one of the main reasons we have gotten out of the manor unscathed." Julian humbly replied, "I'll pay you however much you want if you help us going forward in this battle."

"If you really want my services that much, I'll just be in the bar downstairs then." Hew replied, walking out of the room.

"No Julian," Fia said, "There's no chance against the other branches, we can't win, the Notros branch is now only just a shell of its former self… We just can't… Not without father or uncle Kief."

"I'll find a way…" Julian grumbled walking out of the room, leaving only Fia and Heyrm.

"..."

"..."

Silence pierced the room-

"Thank you… For supporting my little brother, I know that it must be tough on him, hopefully he hasn't caused you too much trouble." Fia remarked, breaking the awkward silence.

"He's fine… He had gone through quite a lot in order to save you, you could see that he isn't that kid who he once was."

"Yeah… I can see that…"

It was weird to talk to Fia, she kept herself in check, trying her best to speak smoothly and calmly, but to Heyrm it was clear that she wasn't in good shape, he saw right through her disguise, all that abuse she faced throughout the past six years in the dungeon was hid within every sentence she spoke and every expression she made.

***

And sure enough soon a letter arrived for Julian, a letter talking upon the selection of the Head of family, he was determined to succeed, to get revenge on what the Minais branch did to his family.

There wasn't any room for failure, it's either kill or be killed.

Weeks passed by and then it was the day, the day of selection…

He won, and to everyone's surprise, Julian was elected as the head… The Head of the Farion noble house. 

It's unclear what he did that got him the support he needed, what bribes, what darkness lies behind his unexpected victory but he won in the end.

Not long after becoming head, Julian instated his revenge, executing the man responsible for all his suffering.

"Please, I'll give you anything!" Boch begged as his head was placed upon the wooden dock.

Julian stared down coldly at the fat man, his hatred burning in his eyes, "Can you give my family's lives back? Can you return my sister's virginity that you took away without a hint of remorse… I guess not." 

Slamming his hand on the desk ordering the guillotine to come down.

The sharp blade of the guillotine came down upon the fatty neck of Boch Minais-Farion

Plat—

Blood poured onto the floor, the stone floor covered in scarlet blood…
