Is this destiny?

Chapter 1591 - Venting Their Anger (2)



Jesse watched in horror as two men approached her. They forced her to sit on the chair and held her left hand on the table.

When Jesse lifted her gaze, she saw Oni holding a bolt cutter.

"What are you doing?" Jesse asked with panic in her voice, even though she knew what Oni will do with the bolt cutter.

In response, the bolt cutter in Oni's hands snapped open-closed twice in the air, like she is testing it.

Oni pointed with the bolt cutter to Jesse's left hand which is on the table. "Those two fingers, I will take them." She turned to Michael. "How about you?"

"She broke my hand; I will not sleep easily without doing the same to her. But…" Michael turned to Oni and gestured toward Jesse. "Ladies first."

Oni giggled. "You are such a gentleman."

"Only for you, my love. Only for you…" Michael responded.

Jesse was not sure how to interpret her current situation. Did they come to kill her, torture her, or flirt? And then she saw Oni approach her with the bolt cutter and the madness in Oni's eyes told Jesse that she will not have an easy death.

Half an hour later…

Jesse is sprawled on the floor, covered in sweat, tears, saliva, and blood. She screamed and cursed until her voice disappeared, but Oni and Michael showed no mercy.

Both Michael and Oni were consumed with images of what they went through while Jesse tortured them in the hideout of Shadow Ravens, and they were hungry for vengeance. But no matter what they did, it didn't seem to be enough.

Jesse has no fingers on her left hand, and all the bones in her right hand are broken (again). Her right leg is also broken in two places, and she is missing four more teeth. Her abdomen is hurting, and she is confident that she has internal damage.

"Just kill me already…" Jesse said weakly.

Oni snorted. "You don't deserve death. We are going to leave now, and we will be back. Eventually. Don't die until then."

Jesse laughed manically and spoke in a croaky voice: "You will be back? What for? To break my bones again? You are running out of fingers to cut."

"Next time, we might come up with something more than hitting and cutting. But if we don't have new ideas, don't worry, you have toes." Oni said casually.

Jesse widened her eyes in horror. "No! Kill me! Mercy! Just kill me!"

Oni sneered. "You want mercy? Is that what you gave us when you tortured Michael? Is that what you gave us when you tortured me and made him watch? You are going to pay for everything you did to us."

Jesse lost her will to fight. She knows that she offended someone she shouldn't have, but she was still not sure what position Oni and Michael hold.

"Who are you?" Jesse asked while looking at Michael and Oni.

Jesse knows that this is a base of the Army of Chaos. And she can see that the people who were coming in and out are treating Michael and Oni with respect. And even Sarah and Aiden came to their rescue.

"You know everything that matters." Michael responded. "In Frankfurt, your guess was correct. Oni is the girl I love, and we have the backing of the Army of Chaos."

Jesse opened her mouth to ask something else, but she realized that she is out of questions. What can she ask that makes sense? Nothing came to her mind that can improve her current situation and she knows that everything else is useless.

"Let's get out of here." Oni urged Michael. "If we stay any longer, I will be too hungry to wait for sandwiches and I might go straight for the dessert." She said while looking at him suggestively.

Michael smiled. "Let's go…"

Jesse watched Oni and Michael walk away while holding each other in a good mood, and they ignored her completely. Out of all the torture she endured, this was probably the worst: she is stuck here, bleeding and suffering in pain, while Michael and Oni are going to enjoy their life.

After Michael and Oni left, the medic entered. He stopped the bleeding and was bandaging her right hand.

"Why do you bother with first aid? Just let me bleed out." Jesse told the medic.

The medic shook his head. "The faster you heal; the faster generals can return for the next round."

Jesse narrowed her eyes, feeling that she heard something important. "Generals?"

Medic nodded enthusiastically. "You have the honor to be personally tortured by the generals. And the first round was done by the bosses themselves! Not many are so lucky. Usually, regular soldiers get to deal with these menial tasks…"

Jesse listened to the man who spoke about Michael and Oni like they are some celebrities. What is that nonsense that she should be honored? What kind of a crazy place is this?

Two men dragged Jesse back to her cell, and again, they didn't cover her head. Jesse understood that they are letting her see the hallways because she has no chance of escaping.

How can she dream of escaping when her right hand is useless, the left one has no fingers, and her left leg is broken?

Jesse thought of using her charms to win favor from her guards, but none of them spared her a glance.

The manic expression on medic's face when he spoke about two great generals (aka Michael and Oni) confirmed to Jesse that these people are crazy. They are all loyal to the point of insanity. What kind of an organization is the Army of Chaos? Who has a teenage girl for a general? And what about Michael? Michael used to belong to Shadow Ravens, how can they trust him with a position of power? Don't they suspect that he will betray them? Nothing makes sense.

In the back of the car, which is heading to the Cliffside Villa…

Michael cradled Oni in his arms.

"Are you OK?" Oni asked.

"I am disappointed." Michael admitted.

"About what?"

"I thought that I will be angrier, that I will lose it and snap her neck. But it didn't happen. And at the same time, I hoped for relief. I hoped that this heaviness will disappear with her suffering. But it didn't happen."

"That tells me that she is not important to you." Oni voiced her observation. She likes that Jesse can't stir Michael's emotions.

Michael thought for some time before responding. "That is true. The only important woman in my life is you."

Oni grinned. Michael knows what to say to make her melt inside. But she had to tease him about one point… "A woman? I remember that not so long ago you thought of me as a little girl."

"What can I say? You have grown splendidly into a young woman. My woman."

Oni smiled. "I love you, Michael. And that is why I will not let her off easily. Jesse will suffer over and over again until my hatred for her dulls."

Michael looked at Oni with sadness in his eyes. He sees Oni as an uncorrupted flower which is bringing beauty into his life and things like suffering and hatred don't suit her. He hopes to protect her from those. "Don't allow the hatred to poison you."

"I can't help it. Every time I think of how she tortured you, and how she tortured me in order to get to you, my blood boils. But after today, I feel better. I am confident that after a few more sessions with Jesse, my anger will be appeased."

"Do whatever you wish. I will always support you." Michael said dotingly.

Oni was surprised that Michael sounds like she is the one who wants to punish Jesse. "Don't you want to make her suffer for what she did to you?"

"I do." Michael responded sternly. "She deserves every bit of pain coming her way. But when I think about what she did to me, I can forgive her and give her a quick death. However, when I remember what she did to you… a thousand deaths will not be enough. I hope that you can vent your anger, and whatever is left I will take it."

Oni was not sure how to respond. Michael is talking about torturing and killing, yet somehow it sounds romantic.

She hugged him with all her might and regretted that they are in the car and not in their apartment which provides privacy. Because she would kiss him until her lips are numb, and she would do more than that.

"I look forward to your sandwiches…" Oni whispered. She didn't say that she is looking forward more to the dessert after the sandwiches. Or maybe they can leave food for later.
