Luna slept for a long time. She seemed to be unable to wake up from her dream.
She dreamt that she was dragged down from the car by someone while being unconscious.
She could not open her eyes, but she could feel that her legs were being dragged on the ground. They were bleeding and they hurt a lot.
The sound of men talking rang out in her ears. She could not hear what they were saying but she clearly heard things like raping then killing.
She wanted to open her eyes, but could not no matter what.
In the end, she woke up by cold water being splashed on her.
She opened her eyes and realized that everything was not an illusion nor a dream.
At that moment, she was in an abandoned factory. The air smelled of rust, gas, and mold.
Her hands and legs were being tied up by a rope. She was tied onto a chair and could not move.
The lighting in the factory was dim.
A few burly men stood in front of her, sneering at her.
Behind them, a middle-aged man was sitting arrogantly on a chair. He was holding an opened letter. He took a picture of the contents of the letter.
After sending the contents of the letter as a message, the middle-aged man smiled. He burnt the letter away and looked at Luna.
“Do you know who I am?“
Luna bit her lips. She bore through the pain on her legs and forced herself to calm down. “Yes. You’re the gang leader of Sea City’s largest gang, Liam Clark.“
Liam was quite surprised that she knew his name because the party that hired him told him that she was a woman from Banyan City.
“You’re a treacherous, murdering maniac. As long as you want to do it, no one would be able to catch you, but you are not for hire, never doing things for others.“
Then, Luna forced herself to look at Liam courageously. “I have no grudge with you. Have you made an exception and started doing things for other people?“
