In the Nest of the Enemy

"PAK!"

A loud and crisp sound surrounded the quiet and terrifying room.

Fiver fingerprints appeared on the left side of his face immediately. Blood was stained on the corner of his lips. The slap was brutal.

"Useless! Idiot!" the man in a suit roared in anger while looking at the man bowing to him.

"Just a fragile woman yet she can escape from you? You useless piece of trash!" he was fuming with anger.

The other man remained calm while bowing his head down. He couldn't rebut at all. It was his fault. Who would have thought that the so-called fragile woman had lots of scheme in her skin?

She said she was hungry. He just went to the convenience store to buy her a ready-made meal. He didn't even stay for long coz he knew, this woman was important to them.

This woman was their rival's younger sister.

Director Hansen was their main target but since he was always armed with bodyguards and big connections, they couldn't touch him. Which was why they went after his sister.

"You better solve this in two days if you don't want to disappear!" the man in a suit kept venting his anger and frustration at the man who kidnapped Michelle.

"Yes boss, I will!" he glanced at him with fear and anxiety.

"Get out!" the man in the suit slammed the wide mahogany desk in front of him which made the other man jump in fright. He was always terrified of his boss, so he left the room at once.

Upon closing the door, the man sat on his luxury leather chair. He looked at the ceiling while panting.

He was in that state for a while when his private phone resting on the table rang. His eyes narrowed when he looked at the number. It was unknown. Only three people knew his private number; the man he slapped a while ago, the brothel owner where he got some women for fun, and a woman in LA.

"Who could this person be and how did he get my number?" he thought while pushing the receiving call.

"Who are you? How did you get my number?" his arrogance and disdainful aura were frantically showed all over his tone.

"You don't need to know who I am and how I got your stupid number! Listen carefully to what I say!" an equal dominant and fearful voice answered his two questions right away. The man in a suit suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body upon hearing his cold and domineering voice.

"What do you want?!" he then asked with anxiety.

The fact that the person on the other line got his private number, only meant he was someone who couldn't be trifled with.

"Don't you dare hurt her again!" he roared and stressed every single word he uttered.

His eyebrows furrowed. Did the caller know something? Did he know about the woman they kidnapped last night? If he did then they were in big trouble. But how did he know that they were the mastermind?

This time, the man in a suit was already trembling. He was imagining that the one he was talking to on the phone was in front of him standing tall, unshakable, and supreme.

"Who are you talking about?" his voice was stammering.

The man on the other line chuckled, "I know you took the bargaining chip last night. If something like this happens again in the future, a woman in LA will suffer!" he said with fury. After leaving the man in a suit a nightmare of words, he hung up.

"A WOMAN--- IN -- IN LA WILL SUFFER?!" he couldn't believe it. How did he know about her?

He immediately called a number and when it was connected, he ordered an unwavering command. "Do not pursue the plan for a while! Do you understand? Do not pursue the plan! Forget about it!" he was yelling at him while gasping.

The man who had just slapped a while ago was confused. Before he could react, his boss already hung up.

Sometimes he didn't like his boss' attitude towards him. He was never treated as a human but always as a dog. Well, he seemed couldn't do anything about it. When he applied for this, he knew he would be treated less than human. He knew his boss would put a muzzle on his mouth and a rope around his neck. He felt pity and his eyes were consumed with rage every time he would think of his situation.

Who was he who kidnapped Michelle last night? He was an ordinary young man living peacefully in a suburb in another country. He had a wonderful dream but it all went to waste because of a woman. He had a fighting ability and good looks. He entered this job as a bodyguard but little did he know that he would do more than just his boss' bodyguard.

Sometimes he would hurt people who would offend his boss. He was always being paid a hefty price that's why he already bought his own house and car in a short length of time. He even had his own unit in a city.

He had saved a lot of money for his future. For his woman's future. But like what he said, all of his sacrifices and hardship were gone to waste. Because his woman had been sleeping with another man and that man was no other than his boss' number one enemy, Director Hansen. The older brother of the woman he kidnapped last night.

His long-time and undefined rage towards him was unfathomable. He promised himself he would take revenge. He would make sure, that the Director would fall. With the help of his big boss, his plan would surely succeed. But first, he needed to know his weakness and must eliminate it. That weakness was Michelle Hansen, his only sister.

Meanwhile, the man in a suit was Director Hansen's rival in the corporate world. They already had clutched way back when they were just started controlling their businesses. Their multi-billion-dollar businesses were inherited by them from their elders. He was not Chinese but he had met Director Hansen in school. They were classmates in high school abroad.

In addition, he had a long desire for Michelle. The first and second time he accidentally saw her was during their graduation day and just months ago on her aunt Tricia's Fashion Show. He promised himself, he would get this woman. He would like to play with her and announced to her brother's face that HE, his number one furious enemy, had played with his doting and adorable sister.

He chuckled and sneered upon thinking of the situation. How wonderful would it be he thought to himself. But someone seemed to know his plan, so he needed to lie low for a while and observe everything. He must have a backup plan. He must get Michelle's attention in another way.

A perfect and vicious plan suddenly structured on his mind.

"Miss Hansen, you will be mine, soon!" he uttered while smiling wickedly in his room.
