The Defiance novel

---- close this deal as soon as possible", he said when he reached my side. ECAC CCC CCC "We are not actually asking a favor here, Mr. Gustavo. I think you are misreading the situation here", Seth stood from his seat and took light heavy steps to Mr. Gustavo's seat, and positioned himself just behind the man. I was just there in front of them sitting. My brother's stance was shouting like he would not take anything at his disadvantage. Gone was the playful brother of mine.

He put his hands on the man's shoulder and gave him a message, it would look like it if the latter was not flinching every time Seth would press down his fingers onto his flesh. And even with those layers of clothes , I bet it was painful. "B-But I already told you, I have no intention of selling that company to anyone" Seth exhaled loudly and drew a Swiss knife from his chest pocket. The light from the chandelier bounced from it and hit my eye. I squinted from it.

"But that's not what my old man wanted. You had a deal with him and now you are not fulfilling your promise. That's too disappointing , man", the knife's blade glide on Mr. Gustav's throat drawing an inch line wound. He gulped. "Seth...", I tried to get his attention . It was my first ---- time seeing him being like this. He was definitely dangerous. He really looked like he did not care about anything else but the order given to him. "shhhh.

I got this, brother", he smirked which could definitely give chills to anyone. He was soulless. And then, everything happened in a second. He stabbed the man's throat three times. Blood splattered from him. Red covered the cloth on the table and Seth also got it on his hands. The sight was horrific. Seth never did killed anyone unless the attack first. Yes, we killed people several times but this was different. Seth then wiped his hands on the dead man's coat. I inhaled sharply.

"You killed him" "He's getting on my nerves already. His voice alone is irritating the hell out of me" Our men cleaned the scene. "What happened to you, Seth?" I asked when we were left alone at the car. He said he would drive. "What do you mean?", he started the car and drove off really fast ignoring the traffic signs. "T don't know. You just seem different from before" He took a quick glance at me before focusing on the ---- deserted road in front of us. "T got better.

I don't really remember what happened but I feel better than before. I can kill people and feel nothing, meaning I can easily accomplish father's wishes. Isn't that great?" I stiffened on his words. Why was he so adamant at following our father's orders? "Anyway", he continued, "Who is Alice?"
