...inside the gambling room...
The room is dead silent you can cut the tension with a knife. The pale man with cold blue eyes sits back comfortably in his chair a mocking smirk on his lips that did not reach his eyes. His eyes cold and intense watching his opponent squirm like a stuck pig opposite him. Pathetic little pig. Did this fool really think he could cheat on him?. He can hear the frantic thoughts of the man he can smell the nervousness and fear on him its intoxicating. This makes the blue eye mans smirk darker and sinister frightening the other men in the room. He can see a few men pity the unfortunate man in front of him. Fools...it almost made him laugh out loud. He does not care never had and never will. He does not have a heart.
Growing impatient the man ask in a cold voice sending shivers down the spines of all the men in the room. 'DO NOT TEST MY PATIENCE OLD MAN IF YOU KNOW WHATS GOOD FOR YOU. I DONT HAVE ALL NIGHT I HAVE A NAKED WARM BODY WAITING FOR ME AND I DONT INTEND TO MISS OUT STARING AT YOUR PATHETIC FACE ALL NIGHT. PAY UP'! The man screams as he slaps his hand on the table making the man in front of him jump up and sending coins, cards and paper money all over the room.
How did it all came down to this Rudy thought frantically?. There is noway out. Someone clears his throat. All eyes turns to John Gilbert. The pale blue eye man slowly turns his head in John Gilberts direction his eyes wild and crazy a cold darkness behind them. 'And you are'? He ask coldly in the dead silent room. John Gilbert nervously clears his throat again and continues to say. 'We are all gentlemen here my good sir perhaps you and Mr Philips can work something out'?. Everything happened so fast in a split second the mysterious man had John Gilbert by the throat in midair almost choking the man to death. 'Is there a problem with your hearing old man? I asked you WHO YOU ARE INTERUP ME AGAIN AND ILL RIP OUT YOUR HEART AND MAKE YOU WATCH ME EAT IT. IS THAT UNDERSTOOD? 'Ye..s..s John Gilbert barely chokes out.
'I can..can pay you si..sir Rudy stutters please don't hurt him for my wrong doing. The pale blue eye man turns his head sideways not even bother to look at Rudy or letting go of John Gilbert who was turning all shades of colours by now. 'Speak he spat out at Rudy. 'Sir I have a nice piece of land. A few gasps can be heard in the room. 'Land? I own more land than I can keep count of you better come up with something else or your lover here is going to choke on his own blood and saliva. Rudy inwardly flinch at the mans crush words. 'I...I have a strong boy that can work for you sir and...and a beautiful maiden daughter to be at your service'. After those words were spoken Rudy knows he lost the respect of all the men in that room but he did not know what else to do. 'At my service you say you slimy worm and what exactly do you mean by that? the man ask in a cold dark voice that held no good in it. And its at that moment that Rudy Joshua Philips realize that he has come face to face with the devil himself. 'To do with her as you please Rudy managed to get out through a dry throat. 'NAME! The man snaps at him. This startles Rudy. 'Pardon me sir? 'What's my future whores name you pathetic excuse for a human being the man ask Rudy in a cold harsh voice. Hearing what the man just ask him felt like a hard blow to his heart.
Abby please forgive me. 'Her name...her name is Bonnie...Bonnie Bennet sir. Rudy says in voice void of life shoulders slumped. The man suddenly drops John Gilbert like a sack of potatoes on the floor he steps over the body as he makes his way to Rudy with a wild look on his face. His eyes dark almost bulging out of its shockets.'Bennet you say? Rudy can't bring himself to look the devil in the eye and can only nod as he say 'yes Bonnie Bennet' a single tear rolling down his cheek.
