Welcome to Hell (by Williane Kassia) novel Chapter 207

Chapter 207

Adrian Kael

I walk through the hallway with light steps, a smile consuming me

from the inside outthe kind of smile you just can’t hide.

I’m happy. No, it’s not just happiness; it’s ecstasy, it’s a fever, it’s a

nearsickly joy gnawing at my insides. Magnus accepted my love. He

didn’t just allow it; he returned my kisses. And thatthat drives me

wild, making me unable to stand still, as if every muscle in my body

were burning with anxiety.

I want his gift to arrive now, immediately; I can’t stand the wait.

Will he seal me with a kiss of gratitude? A deep, lingering kissthe

kind that traps the soul? Or perhaps he’ll wrap me in a tight, warm,

suffocating embrace, like chains I never want to let go of?

I don’t need to hear an I love you.Words mean nothing, not to me. I

want his heat, I want his touch, and I want anything that proves I am

hisanything that makes me believe he considers me his own.

If that day ever comes, if I see in his eyes that he truly views me as

his, I think I’ll lose it. Maybe I’ll die of a heart attack; who knows?

Chapter 207

I’ve always dreamed of him. I’ve always craved him. And now that

he’s accepted me, that he’s trying to like me, I already feel myself

going over the edge.

I imagine the day he finally calls me mine.On that day, yeahI

don’t think I’ll be able to handle it. I’ll snap for good and maybe smile

while I descend into madness.

I cross paths with David, who nearly trips when he sees me. He comes

running, out of breath.

Boss, the shipment you asked for arrived early. We stowed everything

away.

A wide grin spreads across my face at the news.

Excellent, David. Good job. I’ll check on it later. Right now, I need to

feed my love.

My gaze darkens at his nervousness; I watch him swallow hard.

Is there anything else?I ask coldly, my voice as cautious as it is icy.

He takes a deep breath.

I received a notice: in a week, they’re transferring a new guard. He

was a chief at a prison in Russiaand now he’s taking a post here.

I tilt my head and stare at him, failing to understand why I should

care about some new guard.

And what does that have to do with me?

He swallows hard; his hands are shaking.

I only warned you because he might want to change some rules

regarding the drug scheme,he answers quietly.

I give a humorless laugh.

If he thinks too much of himself, his head will roll. I don’t care about

the drugs; every inmate here eats out of the palm of my hand. But if

this guard touches what is mine, he will pay dearly.

David nods quickly, fear shining in his eyes.

Understood, boss.

I move on, leaving him behind. I enter the cafeteria, and, bit by bit,

silence reigns: spoons stop moving, and murmurs die down. I give a

lopsided smile at these gesturesit feels so good to unsettle them.

They’ve become even more cautious after what happened.

I walk up to the counter. TJ looks up as he sees me approaching.

TJ, make your best breakfast, a real hearty one. I want to feed my

love.

He looks at me and nods; the other cooks spring into action. TJ starts

to turn around to prepare the tray, but I stop him with a sentence.

You’ll receive your drugs today. The shipment arrived, and I’ll give

you your cut.

His eyes and the eyes of the others glint with anticipation. I smile at

their excitement and turn my gaze toward the cafeteria. Suddenly, I

catch Navarro’s eyes, already staring at me. I give a short smile and

walk over to him.

Hello, boys,I greet them with a cold smile.

Hello, Adrian,Navarro responds, mimicking the gesture.

с

Ah, it’s so good to see someone who thinks so highly of himself.

“As I promised, you’ll receive your drugs today.The table livens up

with satisfied murmurs.

I stare at Navarro hard. The smile vanishes from my face.

But I want to give you a warning, Navarro.My voice cuts through

the air.

I lean my hands on the table, I lean in slowly until I am inches from

his face, my eyes locked onto his like blades.

Just because I consider you an ally doesn’t mean I’m going to turn a

Ex blind eye to your antics against my Enforcer. If you dare provoke him again, I will personally open your belly and fill this floor with blood.I pause, letting the threat settle. Play with me and you’ll see how

slow death can be.”

He tries to hold my gaze but falters; he looks away a moment later. A

satisfied smile forms on my lips as I pull back.

It was good talking to you, boys.My voice returns to being serene,

almost friendly.

I go back to the kitchen counter. TJ places a hearty tray in front of

me: scrambled eggs with ham, crispy bacon, grilled sausage, warm

bread with butter and jam, panseared bananas, and a large cup of

strong coffee. The smell is intense, so appetizing it makes my

stomach growl.

Thanks, TJ.

I grip the tray firmly and leave the cafeteria. I balance the weight

masterfully, walking toward my cell. The bars are open, just as I left

them; no one would dare enter here. If they did, they would already
