ALESSANDRO'S POV...
I felt a sharp pain in my head as if it would just slit my head in two. My eyelids felt heavy while trying to move, but still, I tried my best.
My gaze was welcomed by the dizzy light of fire right away. My vision was blurry. I wanted to rub my eyes but... I couldn't move my hands! I can feel them then... Suddenly, it hit me, my hands are tied up!
I shook my head and opened my eyes again. Slowly, things turned clear before my eyes and there he is! My son! Still in the middle of the fire circle! Now, he is lying with his eyes closed without any clothes on him!
I struggled hard to move from the chair that I was tied with, but I couldn't. I wanted to cry at this point! But, it's not time to cry. I have promised Victoria that I would free our son and I will keep my promise at any cost! If that means, I need to give up on my life, I would do it! anything for my family!
I tried hard to free my hands and some places were even bleeding, but still, I didn't care! However, suddenly,
"Oh, come on, dear brother, stop being so hard on yourself. You will fail anyways." A male voice came to my ear. I know who is it... Calvin...
I looked up at him. He is standing on the opposite side of the circle. "You should pray for yourself, Calvin. Because once I am free, I will kill you!" I growled at him.
Yet, he laughed. And it was a clear mockery. He raised his brow pointing at himself, "Kill me?" He laughed again. "I think you should pray for yourself to be alive first, dear brother."
"Who the fuck is your brother!?" I roared at him. "Shut up! And let my child leave!"
"Oh! The fatherly instinct!" He nodded, tapping his chin. "Good for you, Devonte. But, tsk~tsk. You are too late, to be honest. You started showing your love to Victoria a lot later..." He shrugged, "But that does not bother me anyways. I am glad, you brought a good piece of meat for our mother... At least completed your responsibility toward your mother, unlike that arshole..." His eyes glared at someone besides me.
Wait... Is there someone else? I turned my head to my right side and gasped hard... Dominic! What is he doing here!?
I struggled to free myself again, wishing to strangle these both fuckers. But, failed and heard Calvin's maniacal laugh again.
"Have a last conversation brothers. Will be the end of your days soon..." Saying, he left and I shouted after him.
"Waste of energy." I heard Dominic's annoying tone beside me and my head snapped at him.
"All happened because of you only!"
I thought he would come and try to hurt me but he sighed quietly, not moving from his seat at all.
When he didn't respond, I concentrated on my movements for freedom, yet I kept failing again and again.
"You can't free your hands, Andro." I heard him again and turned to him, stopping my movements.
