Hazard chuckled devilishly. “Beg me.”
“What?” Pispa whispered in shock as she watched him, her brows had narrowed as she looked in the eyes of the devil who wanted to frustrate her life.
“Beg me Ms. Sassy.” Hazard said with an evil leer.
Well.. his smiles was irritating and annoying too.
He wants to wreck her.
But..?
She is just wrecked.
Pispa’s mouth twitched, she felt scared, she can’t beg that man, he forcibly dragged her into this unfamiliar room.
He humiliated her.
Threatened her? And now he is requesting for an apology?
Craps!
He leaned over her, his fixation was rested on Pispa as he smirked impishly. His eyes going through her as he tried to read her expression.
“You aren’t begging?” He asked
Pispa licked her lower lip as she gulped down her spit, feeling like strangling him to death.
She needed to salvage her father, he is innocent.
Pispa exhaled. “Why.. are you doing this?” Pispa looked up at him slowly, her eyes was dripping in anger.
“Why are you doing this to me? You.. humiliated me and also made me a failure in front of everyone… even kidnapped me and now my dad is in your custody? How so cruel are you?” She yelled angrily. Her voice echoes the empty room.
Hazard chuckled, when he saw reel in Pispa’s eyes. “You want to know?” He asked but she was quite but her eyes on him could gouge his heart.
“First, you happen to be the first person, not only that but a cheap one at that, that have ever lay a finger on me… I can’t let it slide off, that’s the reason I want to have you around me, you will keep paying for your sins, till I’m satisfied.” Hazard said bloodily.
Pispa slowly bursted into a cranky uncontrollable laugh that sent Hazard aback.
She laughed to her filled and turned at Hazard. “You can’t stop being childish and freaking funny, you think that will intimidate me right? Well.. Mr. Childish, you should think like a normal grown person and stop bragging.. of course I know you are the eminent Cruel DeHavilland but I really do not care who the fuck you are.” Pispa said resolutely.
Hazard felt a sharp pains piercing into his chest, her words were like a very sharp bullet and it stuck into him with great effects.
He dangerously looked up at her, she was really getting on his nerves, he felt like he got a rivalry and first time in his life—he felt defeated but he wasn’t going to take it.
“I’m happy you know, I’m eminent Cruel DeHavilland but do you know why it is like that?”
Pispa chuckled softly with anger lingering in her face. “Like I said before, I don’t give a damn who you are… And you better free me before you get a bleeding nose.”
“A bleeding nose?” Hazard flared up, his chin clenched tightly for a while and slowly he scoffed. “Well.. maybe you don’t know what I’m capable of doing, since you are too stubborn. What about, I capture your mother as well?” He smirked
“You dare not!” Pispa growled, her face had reddened “My family is innocent. Mr. Childish.” She added angrily.
Hazard chuckled, his phone beeped and it was Callum. He didn’t want to speak with him, so he declined the call immediately.
Pispa was wringing on the rope to free herself, but couldn’t.
“You won’t leave that place until you agree to work for me.” He added with finality in his voice, leaving.
“You better not touch my mother or siblings!” Pispa yelled in between her strugglings.
Hazard paused on his tracks turning towards her with a narrowed eyebrows. “You have siblings as well?”
Pispa glowered at him.
“Maybe I should start from them.” His lips formed into a lopsided smiles. A cold smirk.
“Hey. Don’t do that okay? We didn’t reach on a deal okay?”
“You are quite stubborn and by the time I’m done dealing with them, you will barely recognize them.” He chuckled darkly. “..And that’s for being stubborn.” He said with an evil intention leaving out finally.
“Hell. How do I get the f+k outta here.” Pispa said as she dangles herself on the ropes. “You must get a bloody nose. Mr. Childish.” She yelled to his hearing but she got no reply.
“Gosh!” She muttered, squeezing her eyes closed as she was thinking on what next to do.

Hazard dropped on the bed, dragging back his hairs backwards, reminiscing on what just happened in torture room.
“She is quite interesting.” He muttered with a chuckle as he headed to the window of his room, he grabbed his phone dialing a number.
In a second the person received the call immediately. “You have a work for me tomorrow. Get ready.” He said and hung up.
*
Ronnie kept trying Pispa’s number but it was still unreachable.
“Where could she have been with her number unreachable?” Ronnie thought, his eyes looking dizzy and he looked so dazed.
“Her stubbornness is so irritating.” He exhaled again. He had just went to the park to know if he could see Pispa but couldn’t.
He had gone there once, the day he made Pispa angry, she failed her test and Ronnie scolded her and she rushed out of the class immediately heading to the park.
She was alone. Looking so isolated.
“She isn’t here. Where could she be?” Ronnie thought.

Paula had gone to the hospital to check up on those ladies and they were getting better, their mothers were mad when they heard about the incident and Paula was done tackling with it.
Now she had alighted from the car heading inside the house to rest, Four was a personal servant in the house, she met him on his was out.
“Four. Did he do any thing stupid when I left?” Paula asked.
Four swallowed nervously before nodding. “He brought in a woman and she is in the torture room.”
“A woman? How is that possible?” Paula asked surprisingly. “Hold on. Hazard I know does even have friends not to talk of bringing a woman home?” She added shockingly. “Hazard had been tortuous since 17 and never wanna change.”
Four only stared at her without saying anything.
“We need to save that girl..who knows what she has been passing through in there?” Paula stood.
Four shook his head. “I might lose my job ma, I will be out, I don’t want him to know I d’ lick some information to you.”
“Okay. Go back to your duty post.”
Four bowed before walking away.
Paula got to the hallways to the torture room, she tried opening but found out it was locked.
“Is anyone in here?” She knocked, placing her ear on the door, to know if someone is there.
Pispa stopped whimpering for a moment to listen to the voice at the door, so some one else is at the door aside him?
The voice come again.
She took the advantage to speak. “Hey! Save me, I’m very much stuck.” Pispa yelled struggling to squirm free. “He is evil, get me out of here if you can!” She added
Paula was furious. She couldn’t open the damned door. She walked straight to Hazard’s room, bursting into the room.
Hazard was drying his wet hairs, looked like he just went to bath, immediately he saw his mother, his expression changed.
“Why are you in my room?” He said with zero emotions. “You could have seen me naked if I haven’t changed.”
Paula released a very hot slaps on his cheeks and he widened his eyes in shocks.
“What did you just do?” He looked up at his mother.
“I’m sure you know that slaps hurt right? Since you lack some senses I need to instill them for you. Hazard when are you gonna start feeling people’s emotions?” Paula fired.
“What nonsense are you spilling?” Hazard said coldly.
“Who is that girl in the torture room? Why the hell did you have to lock her up? Her parents must be looking for her by now, don’t you know that?”
“Look. If that the reason you slapped me, I’m ever ready to turn to my other side of cheek to receive another. Did you just slapped me because of that girl in the f+king torture room?”
“Hazard!” Paula called unbelievably. “Those ladies are innocent. What has come over you my son.”
Hazard licked his lips, looking up to his mother, his eyes was hardened with angers in them. “That girl in there is paying for her sins.” He breathed “And I’m not releasing her anytime soon.”
“C’mon those ladies you tried to kill with hot water are still struggling for their lives in the hospital and now this?”
“I don’t care.” He Jibbed “it is my life and I don’t whatever that pleases me okay. Excuse me.”
“Wait.” Paula said and he stood. “You know Hazard, I’m sorry if have wrong you in anyway but you have to release that lady.” Paula pleased
“Okay, you need to know the reason I locked her up there… Look, I just want her to work for me but she is proven stubborn and I hate it.. she has to be there till she agrees to work for me.” Hazard said walking out.
“Jesus Christ. He has turned to a wild animal.” Paula muttered going after him.
“Okay, I promise to beg her to work for you if you could release her.” She said after him.
“I can’t release her. I just want her to suffer her. And there is no amount of your pleading that would save her untill she beg with her mouth.”
“C’mon, baby. Don’t be like this.”
“I’m not, I’m just paying back.” He shrugged grabbing his jacket leaving. “And..” he paused turning to his mother.
“Don’t try anything funny. I have my cameras in the room.” He added walking finally out of her sight.
Paula sighed, seemed like he read her mind “After his 17 years of birthday, he completely changed.” She swallowed her spit, as he throat bobbled.

Katie was returning back home from a theatre, she was dialing Pispa’s number and it wasn’t going through, Mel had called her countless time about Pispa and she kept telling her she wasn’t with her.
“August must know about her whereabout.” Katie said to herself.
“Hey.” Someone said behind her.
“Hey.” Katie said turning to the person. It was one of their friends. “I thought you must be home by now.”
“No. I just went on a stroll.” He said. That was Butch.
“Okay.”
“Uh ..I .. I haven’t seen Pispa, she isn’t with you.”
“No. She might be with her boyfriend.” Katie shrugged.
“She had a boyfriend?”
“Yeah.” Katie stared at him doubtfully.
Butch chuckled. “Sorry. I never knew someone like her have a boyfriend?”
“She have. A perfect one.” Katie shrugged looking at him.
Butch nodded. “I will be on my way now, I.. just need to take a fresh air.”
“Bye.” Katie waved with a smiles and he ran off with a quick steps.
“Pispa. I know you failed but don’t act crazy today okay. I just want to believe you are with your boyfriend.” Katie said doubling her steps when she saw her father alighting from the car.
“Dad!” She waved rushing towards him.

Hazard staggered into the torture room, seeing Pispa still dangling on the ropes, she looked up, her eyes locked with his and she frowned. Her eyes darkened in anger. “You bastard! Hope none of my family members are hurt right?”
Hazard scoffed. “They will suffer more than you. Look here little sassy girl, I’m a hard nut to crack. Hell will be a better place for them from now on.”
“You are crazy!” Pispa yelled
Hazard laughed.
No he snickered.
Like someone under manipulation. “To make it more hard for you little minx.. you will be this way till enternity.”
“I hate you dickhead!!”
He shrugged. “The ball is in your court to play.”
“Goblin!” Pispa said. She didn’t know what to do but she had to figure out a way.
A better way.
Hazard started leaving but stopped. He had a device in his hand. “Well.. I’m gonna give you a second chance. Press on this if you have decided to go on with the deal.” He tossed the device and it felled on her feet.
Pispa angrily kicked the device and it hit on a wall and ricochet back to her feet, she rolled her eyes on him and started struggling on the ropes again.
Hazard left. He will forcibly make her regret ever being stubborn or maybe he was just teaching her some lessons.
He had gone to the lobby to have a drink, his mother needed him to release her but he had another way—thats to make her bleed.
Soon, his phone pang again and he checked only to see Callum’s massage and it got him annoyed.
*Dude, so gross, I never knew a girl could be such a superhero.* He read and his face deepened in anger.
Hazard wanted to type back but there was a beeping sound from his wrist watch indicating a red lights—that means Pispa had just clicked on the fucking device?
Oh yeah she had.
Maybe she is gonna beg this time.
Definitely she will.
He ran off to met her.
TBC…
