Chapter 19: Don’t Cross Me
Chapter 19: Don’t Cross Me
"You there, whatever your name is. Stop what you and your men are doing and give me those slave
girls."
"I'm sorry my lord, but we can't do that, and we have no obligation to follow your orders."
Leon got a little agitated, his face presented how he felt pretty well.
"Give me the girls, if you're going to discard them, then let me take them."
"My lord, it seems you don't understand, we received orders from the king to dispose of these things.
So I'm sorry, I'll have to decline your offer."
"It's fine, if the king gets on your back about it, tell him that it was my fault for you not doing your jobs."
"For the last time, no. Come on let's get a move on!"
Leon looked at the man gesturing to the guards under his control to move out.
"Huh(sigh)"
Before the man knew what was happening Leon's hand was already tightly gripped around his throat.
Leon was severely ticked off at this point.
He didn't care whether he had to use force to get what he wanted. Since that was the only option left,
he took it, grabbing the main man by the neck.
"W. Hat... a..re yo.u doing?"
Leon looked straight at the main with not a hint of fear in his eyes. All the main could see was death
starring him in the face.
"I asked you nicely, but you refused. So for the last time, before I break your neck, let me take the girls
off your hands."
Some of the guards after putting the girls down faced their weapons towards Leon.
"Let go of him!"
Leon looked at the guards, not even turning his head.
"No."
Leon's grip got tighter and tighter as every second went by.
"I suggest you put your weapons down. You wouldn't want to get your throats crushed, like your
superior here, would you?"
The guards slowly and hesitantly put down their weapons, looking at each other and at the man in the
air struggling to get loose from Leon's grip.
Leon looked back at the man in his grasp. His eyes were showing not a hint of fear or hesitation, he
was ready to kill. The man knew it.
"Fi. ine. Wee..'ll, we..'ll st..op."
The main man, almost faint with lack of oxygen, yielded, approving of what Leon desired. After getting
what he wanted, Leon dropped the man. Leon's face was back to normal, with a fake smile.
"That's great, I hope we won't have another one of these issues later on."
The guards placed the girls down on the ground, backing away a little from Leon.
"Cough, cough, cough"
Leon looked down at the man on the floor, he was rubbing his now bruised neck.
"You.. monster."
The man looked at Leon with anger and hatred, he really wanted to kill Leon.
The man tried signaling the guards under his command to attack Leon, but they didn't move. Leon was
still looking at the man, he knew exactly what the man was planning. He crouched down getting closer
to the man on the floor.
"They're not going to attack, your too late for that move. If you really think you'll be able to beat me then
your just stupid. At least your men are smart enough to figure out they won't win."
While on the floor, the man was frozen with fear trying to back away.
"Because it doesn't seem that you injured the girls, I won't kill you. So why don't you get up, with your
men, and leave."
"Yes my lord, let's get out of here men!" Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
"One last piece of advice, if you ever, ever cross me again, even if it's my line of sight, your dead.!"
Leon watched to man and guard ran off out of the hallway. He stood there for a moment, with a smirk
on his face.
The girls after watching him at work just sat there. Leon untied the ones tied up and helped them get on
their feet.
