Chapter 252 - A letter from hubby

Max gasped for air as her kick was undeniably powerful and momentarily constrict his lungs from breathing after receiving a blow from her.

"what was I saying again? ha! right. I can still feel my bone cracking as my body flew from the impact and landed hard -- real hard breaking more of my bones. The blood that drips from my wounds cannot compare to the internal bleeding I have felt -- ravaging inside me from that crash. All I want that time is for me to lose my consciousness so I won't have to feel the excruciating pain any longer but, I didn't. I could still hear everyone's murmuring, loud and clear like they are speaking right in front of my ears." Seraphina then steps her foot on the back of Max's head -- slowly putting her weight as if she wanted to feel the pain she had gone through from that incident.

"I will spare your life, Max. But, I won't forget the pain you have caused me either. Everyone, leave." A glint of viciousness flashed across her eyes as she uttered her command.

Without a second delay, Mike and his men immediately nodded and slightly bowed before exiting the bas_e_m_e_nt. On the other hand, Tuna who was kowtowing seems to have a hard time getting back on his feet due to his incredible size. Hence, without exerting much effort, Tito grabs his back collar -- lifting him up as if he was a doll.

"I got you, boy." Tito emotionlessly uttered before glancing at Seraphina who was still staring at Max with a bone-chilling smirk on her face. Tito knew what will she do and it will be easier for her to vent her anger if no one is around as they could also be caught up when she unchained the beast inside her.

After a minute, Seraphina and Max were the only ones who were left in the bas_e_m_e_nt -- having their own privacy. Lifting her foot from the back of his head, Seraphina took a step back, she spoke. "Don't worry, Max. You should also understand that what I did is also what I have to do. But, you made it more complicated."

With that send note, Seraphina crouched down and forcefully grabbed Max hair pulling it. Max gritted his teeth in rage and pain at the same time.

"Bullsh*t!" He growled before his head was hardly pounded on the hard concrete floor -- making the side of his head bleed uncontrollably. One after another, Seraphina emotionlessly pushes and pulls Max head, almost crashing his skull.

After numerous pounding of Max's head, Seraphina grew tired from the seemingly unending cycle. Standing up, she kicked him hard, enough to make Max roll on the floor and lay on his back. By the ruthless beating he inflicted, he can't think straight anymore as his consciousness starts to fade away.

Max's side eye started to swell as his head continuously bleeds yet, Seraphina still had her poker face and no remorse could be trace on her whole being.

"Max, whatever I do, I always have my reason, you know. Next, ribs." She spats and by the next second, Seraphina stomps her foot on Max abdomen.

"Oh--!" Max could loudly hear his ribs cracked a little -- incapacitating him to breathe for the meantime. One after another, Max slowly turns numb as he lost count to how many times she stomps on him.

All he heard the next moment is her indistinct murmurs and his legs being crashed by something but his body and head received too much pain that the next assault felt nothing anymore.

He could feel his body being thrown yet, Max will only growl by instinct but the pain doesn't last long as another pain from the different part of his body will surely receive another blow. He almost could not keep track of the time as Max could only hope for the pain to stops.

Even to Dragon, he never felt this kind of beating as the right-hand man of Dragon. Surely, Dragon and Seraphina had different ways of punishing someone as she prefers more violent route while Dragon would only send them to a life and death mission -- whether they will get captured or survived, that's their fate to decide.

Soon, Max sensed that his body was being lifted and the constant blow he received stops. Slightly opening his swelling eyes, his vision was clouded but he clearly saw Ezt docile profile before Max body finally eases and submit to a deep slumber.

"D*mn, you arrived too early. Where's your master?" Seraphina clicks her tongue the moment Ezt entered the bas_e_m_e_nt. He instantly went directly to Max who was in his pool of blood with few of his teeth missing and his whole face was swelling and bleeding -- leaving him unrecognizable.

Surely, he was beaten black and blue by Seraphina who only had flecks of blood on her face and clothes -- showing that she was unscathed and Max didn't have the chance to fight back.

After Ezt carried Max, he took a stride towards Seraphina and handed her a note from his master which Seraphina nonchalantly received. As soon as Ezt executed his job, he was about to leave but halted when Seraphina adviced him.

"you should send him to the hospital first -- I got carried away."

Without a word, Ezt resumed his tracks and left the premises. Being left alone, Seraphina opened the note and only read two words that were clearly handwritten by Dragon;

'I'm busy.'

Reading Dragon's response as if he knew that she will ask about him, her brows twitch. 'this guy...' she murmurs before folding it again and slid it on her other pocket. Soon, Tito's figure came into sight with a confused expression on his face.

"Oh, let them cutest. I already received their ransom." Seraphina reassured with a smile. Hearing her statement, Tito didn't dare to question what it was and let the intruder get the man.
