41.2- Consequences

'You have already made our private matter public enough. Now come with me quietly." Sebastian ordered, taking a step towards me, terrifying me. 'I said my daughter is not going anywhere! Get the hell lost!" Father yelled, putting his hand in the air to stop him from advancing but it was only increasing his rage. 'Sebastian, please." I whispered, shutting my eyes, holding Papa's shirt from behind, on the verge of crying. 'You have hurt my daughter enough now. Leave! We don't want you anywhere near her! She won't go with you!" Papa continued, holding my hand tightly for reassurance but his very presence overcame it. Sebastian had overwhelmed me. 'I will make sure you regret it. You have already tested me once, there won't be a second time." He whispered in a low threatening tone, inducing an unforgettable apprehension. With tears blurring my vision, I trembled, shaking my head in denial, 'No…" 'I said come here!" He yelled, earning a gasp of fear from me. 'Please, Sebastian. I-I will come home myself… J-Just let me talk to them. I-I will make them listen.. Don't-" I whispered hurriedly, hoping to make him understand that I will handle this mess and return soon but Mama worsened everything. 'NO! You have frightened her enough. Not anymore!" Mama yelled. She couldn't bear seeing me like this and ended up crying, hugging me tightly but I pulled away, holding her arms. 'Mama, please…" I whispered, holding her desperately to stop and not enhance the fatality of the situation that she already did. But, Sebastian was not in the mood for negotiations at all, he wouldn't give me time, he wouldn't let me. He came to take me and will take me. With or without my consent. 'Jacob." Sebastian called Jacob this time who let out a whistle and I saw his guards, dragging Sofia along. Her mouth was taped and hands were tied, struggling to leave with tears streaming down her face, stealing my life to find my best friend in this condition. 'Mhm!" She sobbed, trying to move but they pushed her forward, throwing her on the ground with a gun over her head, horrifying her. 'Sofia!" Breaking into a sob, I could take it anymore. I knew Sebastian would go far to teach me a lesson this time but I didn't fathom this far. All of us were shaken by terror when he kept Sofia hostage, engraving a dread I could never forget. 'Sebastian, please let her go. I-I will go with you, I will do anything. Please don't hurt her." Wailing, I pleaded with him, hoping he would spare some mercy and leave my family. 'You truly shouldn't have triggered me." Snarling he took a step closer, gripping my hairs, pulling me back, my back hit his strong chest. 'Sebastian.. Please don't hurt her." I sobbed, tears rolling down my cheeks. But he didn't listen. Holding a fistful of my hairs, forcing my teary eyes to collide with his blazing ones. 'Now etch this as a fucking lesson." My eyes widened, shaking my head, begging him, 'No, no, please, I am sorry-" But, he didn't give me a chance to even complete my sentence and shot Sofia's arm, making us all scream in pure horror, 'Sofia!" 'Mhmm!" Screaming in pain, blood began to flow out of her arm, tainting our floor and my fate with blood and misery. 'Sofia..!" Crying, I tried to run to her but he kept holding me by one hand, making me look at Papa as he pointed his gun at him now. 'No, no, please, Sebastian, please I beg you. Don't hurt my Papa, please." I begged, holding his shirt, tears streaming without any halt. Witnessing the boundaries he would cross if I dared to infuriate him again. 'I would do anything, I won't disobey again, let him go, please…" I cried, pulling his shirt, only requesting him to spare my loved one and not hurt them more than he already did. 'Don't you fucking dare to utter another sound." He threatened. Enraged at my wailing, he pulled my face adjacent to his level, staring dead into my eyes with intense rage. 'Please… let her go. What have we done to you?" Papa sobbed, joining his hands before Sebastian to leave me. He was begging before him to leave our family alone but when he had locked his eyes on his prey nothing could stop him. 'Take a closer look at your loved ones, Eileen." He growled, turning my head to stare with those blurry eyes at the hopeless state of my parents and my bleeding friend. Leaning down to my ears, he whispered huskily, sending a deadly shiver down my spine, 'Because this is the last time you are seeing them." 'Sebastian, no…" What I feared the most occurred. I was frightened he might not shut me off from my family and he did it. Breaking the string I had left. 'If you dared to seek anyone's help or do anything which pissed me off. Keep it as a reminder that your daughter is in my hands and she would pay for each mistake you would make. So you better choose your actions wisely next time." He threatened Papa openly, horrifying us all. Moving his hand, he put his gun over my head, making my heart and body stop immediately when I felt the cold metal on my temple. 'Do not forget this sight ever again." He growled, etching this sight of having my life in his hands as a reminder to make the next decision wisely. 'And as for you," He paused, traveling his furious gaze to my horror-stricken face, speaking lowly but outrageously in my ears, 'You had already severed my patience. I shall deal with you at home." Shutting my eyes to cut off the intense contact he managed to induce by one death-glare, I whimpered weakly, 'Please…" But, ignoring my plea, he began to drag me away followed by the muffled screams of my friend in pain and my parents wailing loudly after witnessing his powers. 'Treat her and make them understand in your words, Jacob." He ordered. 'Yes, Boss." Jacob nodded, motioning to his men to help Sofia thankfully as Sebastian took my devastated form with him forcefully, not listening to my justifications. Taking me back to my world of nightmares again.
