The Defiance novel

---- "Ym just asking a simple question yet you always make things complicated", I said. Everyone should be asleep or resting right now while I was left alone in the basement with these five, well, four 'cause one died even before we started, tough looking guys. "We will die anyway", one said and I nodded my head. "Yeah you're right. But I need the answer. I need the exact location, buddy", I was getting tired of making them bleed, I could now pass for a horror movie cast. Athriller one.

The door creaked and my head snapped at Sev. He was here again. Trying to save me and increase the blood on his hands. Without any word, he pulled the trigger and shoot the one who spoke last, it was a head shot. An instant kill. He shifted the direction to the other men but they remained unresponsive. "We need the location, Sev. Don't kill them all. Yet", I reminded him but he was not listening.

He shot another one dead, my ears rang from the noise it made and my eyes shut tightly in annoyance. "Two more", he said. He would not spare them, gaining something from them or not, he was determined to kill them and even before he did, I pulled my own gun and killed the other two as fast as he did. And again, without saying anything, he turned his back to leave. ---- "We can't help you if you don't say anything , man. You're forgetting us". It was time to put some sense into his thick skull.

"T don't need help", he replied. He reached the door but I quickly moved and got a hold of him. I slammed his body on the wall with my arm on his neck. My patience was wearing thin. He just looked at me. Just really looked at me. "You're getting yourself killed", I hissed angrily. He smirked , there was nothing funny about what I said but his reaction made me think that there was indeed something funny. "Ym letting myself live, Max. You know it. This is the life for me.

This has been my life ever since, there was nothing wrong with it". "Sev. You're forgetting things" "No. lam remembering who I am", his hand moved and I watched him put the mouth of is gun on his temple. "Help me pull this trigger if you think I need to stop 'cause I can't stop now, Max", his tone was full of challenge he knew I was not willing to take. I couldn't say more. He pushed me away from him and left. "T need to have her back, Max.

I need to have Alice back", I contemplated on his wish which he muttered before closing the door. I put my gun down on the ---- metal table and received a message from an unregistered number. "There are CCTVs all over the place. We need to talk but not anywhere in the house. We need a plan" "Fucking idiot", I muttered.
