Taesan's POV
Bang.
One last body drops, splattering blood on my clothes, I step over the useless man and keep moving towards my prey.
My steps are slow and calculated, every second that passes is my money and my time burning, the targets looks terrified as I take off my bloodstained jacket and hand it over to my right hand man.
Junho, always the voice of reasoning lets out a sigh, muttering about how stupid people are getting these days.
I tug the rubber band off my wrist and tie my hair back, just enough for the man to see clearly, he will need to remember my face even he'll.
Kang Taesan, the captain, the mountain tiger doesn't forgive.
"Wait…wait…sir…wait" the leader of the small gang pleads, dragging himself desperately away from me on his ass, I watch him with hood eyes and a cigarette dangling between my lips.
I don't fucking need it, I just want the heat of it, the heat keeps me grounded.
A reminder not to go too far, because I will be fucking going back to my home tonight, I will hate to explain why I have bits of human organs on me to my Sooin.
"Name" I ask, voice as low as my patience and the man shakes his head, "he'll kill me…he'll kill me…please!" he yells with his palms pressed together.
I cock my gun and take a low and long drag of my cigarettes.
"Fucking say the name!" a member of my clan says.
"He'll kill me!" the man screams again, the scream comes just in time to hide the noise of my bullet firing and piercing through his forehead.
His mouth is hanging open as he falls forward to the concrete, blood oozing out of his forehead, what a waste.
"Leave his body on the street, tell them Captain did it" I announce as I walk past his body, they have no idea how thin the line of my patience has become, I once played with food but now…I just eat.
"Captain, the package has been secured" my beta announces and I nod as two clan members bring it to me, they are holding a small wooden box that holds the drive I need.
I pick it out of the box and examine it.
Finally.
With a flick of my wrist, they bring just the thing I need, an already set up laptop, and the flashdrive is plug in.
I wait patiently as an icon rotate for a few seconds and then it disappears, giving way to a blank screen. I draw in a sharp breath when the screen lights up again.
The screen is scrambled for a few more seconds before I turn my head to ask the question on the tip of my tongue.
"Is it supposed to be this way?" I ask, rage eating into my skin with every second that passes.
The keyboard is pressed a few more time and each click brings up nothing.
They played me.
I tilt my head backwards at the darkening sky as a short laugh breaks past my lips and my cigarettes falls to the cold floor.
They played tiger.
"I want names by tomorrow" I say and my men nod all at once, "I don't just want names, I need them" I say, keeping my voice calm.
"Yes sir" they say in unison and I throw the laptop at the wall.
"Who brought this deal to me?" I ask and a man is pushed forward, his legs are shaking as he stands in front of me, "Captain, I- I didn't know…I-" he stutters, hands pressed together.
I don't speak for a few seconds.
My body is pulsing with energy that it can barely hold, the gun in my hand feels heavy, just begging to be used and fuck, the smell of blood send a rush to my cock.
Rut is near, it might fully come tomorrow, but right now…
"Who paid you?" I ask quickly.
"No one…no one…I swear, I just…" he stutters and i growl deep in my throat, a warning, I truly don't have time for this.
I have an empire to run by day, a clan to rule by night, a daughter to father all day and a thief…a thief to teach a lesson.
"Junho" I call my beta's name and he stands by my side, "is this man telling the truth?" I ask and Junho looks him over, "three hours sir and I will deliver" he says and I look at my watch.
Three hours
Without more words I turn around and leave them to their business. They failed again. Yuki must be getting ready to mourn her new set for lazy and stupid men.
I get into my car and the heat gets suffocating, I tear open First few buttons of my shirt and tug on the collar.
Three hours time, I might have a new body buried or I could be buried in a warm hole that can take knot well.
Junho drives me straight home after giving me new clothes exactly like the blood splattered ones.
The closer we get to my mansion, the hotter the feeling under my skin becomes; rage, frustration, lust.
"Junho, get me an omega tonight" I say, "yes, Captain" the man says as he drives in through my gates.
My sense to defend goes off as I see a strange figure standing in front of my home.
"Who the fuck is that?" I ask with a low growl and Junho straighten his back at the question, "sir, it's Shin Seoha" he says.
Shin Seoha?
"The black card thief sir" the beta says and the sick desire to crush him runs through my veins.
My jaws tick as I look at his form, his hands are in his pocket to ward away the cold, his nose look pink and I step out of the car.
I can shoot him now and forget he ever crossed me…but I hear Sooin's voice echoing.
"Where's daddy?"
I clench my fist and turn my head slightly to the side to address my beta, "Junho, forget the omegas tonight" I say.
Let the torture begin.
