“You.” His foot kicks my thigh. “What's your name?”
“Umm, Porter, Sir.” I don't want to tell this drug dealer my name, but telling the truth is my only chance of getting out of this. I know nothing and hopefully, Annie doesn't either.
“Do you take drugs, Porter?”
“No, sir, never.”
“Then you'd better hope we don't find anything upstairs to change that with.”
He just threatened to drug me with whatever the two guys upstairs find. My head shakes frantically with panic.
“Please don't. My mum's a user. I don't want to become like her.” My bottom lip trembles, I know I must look pathetic, but becoming like my mother is my biggest fear. “I… I have money if that's what you want.”
“Shh.” His hand runs down the side of my face. “We'll know if it's your mum's shit. And I definitely don’t want your money.”
“Oh. Thank you?”
“Then there's no other drugs here. Right Annie?” He says with a knowing smile focused on my sister.
Her expression doesn't fill me with confidence. I’m not going to die because she doesn’t want to cooperate, but if he doesn’t want money then what else does he want? My mind starts to spiral with possibilities.
“I swear I have nothing to do with this…”
“Shhh.” Knox presses a gloved finger to my lips, then his fingers pinch the fleshy part of my nose. The action surprises me, and my mouth flies open to breath. It's instantly filled with a solid leather ball that's strapped in place behind my head. What the fuck? Who carries something like this around?
“I believe you. You're a good boy, aren't you?” Knox swaps the grip on my nose with a handful of hair to keep my head up. I can't talk, so he must be expecting me to nod like a good boy. He can go fuck himself. This is humiliating and if he thinks he is going to get any more cooperation from me he can go to hell.
“Hey, look what we found.” A man from upstairs returns with a white block in his hand. My heart drops in my chest.
“Well now. What a surprise!” Mr. Thayer says sarcastically. It looks nothing like the little bags of stuff Mum leaves lying around.
A squeak escapes me; he threatened to use that on me. I tuck my legs up trying to make myself as small as possible; this can’t be happening.
“Don't worry, precious. I'm not opening this bag to waste any on you.” He gives a soft chuckle, like my predicament could be funny to him. “But it leaves me with a few questions for your sister.”
“I don't know anything about that,” Annie insists.
“You're not dealing this stuff yourself, or you'd be giving your mum some. Are you just passing my bricks off to someone else. You are going to tell me who, or I will hurt you and your brother. It would be a shame to ruin such pretty faces.”
“I'm sorry, Mr Thayer, I've never seen that before. I don’t even know what it is.”
I don’t believe Annie's words any more than Mr Thayer does. I’m going to vomit, we're dead all because she has to be stubborn. The girl has never been able to lie well in her life and now she thinks it's a smart thing when our lives are in danger.

It'sastupididea.Every logical thought tells me to walk away from these two kids, but I want them both. I've got every reason to want her; my guys found last night's stash of coke, but this bitch has been skimming my profits, and I want her to pay. I want to make an example of her, so the rest of the workers know not to fuck with me. As for the boy, I want him for more selfish reasons.
“Well, Miss Ellis, I don't believe you. Convince me this wasn't taken from my club last night.” This girl is going to be a tough nut to crack if the threat of drugging and maiming her pretty little brother doesn't get her talking. I was expecting to find evidence of her cutting up my blocks into single doses to sell, but tonight's block is the only evidence here. This bitch is handing my stuff to someone else, leaving me with a far bigger problem than these two kids.
“Tell me you didn't steal this from me to sell on my streets.”
“That's right, Mr Thayer. That must be my brother's.” Tiffany nods at the coke we found in her room. The audacity of this bitch to not only lie to my face, but to drag her brother into this too. The shock and betrayal on her brother's face even with the gag in his mouth says it all. His eyes start to tear up, my poor treasure, she’ll pay for that also.
“Fine.” I'm making a cardinal sin, but I'm doing it anyway. “Let's discuss this more at my place. This is a shithole and I feel like I’m going to catch something. Plus…” I give my best sinister glare to both of them. “I have much better toys there for us to play with.” I make sure I’m looking directly at Porter when I wink. He is going to be so fun to break. My cock is hard just thinking about it.
I shouldn't bring the pair back to my house. I never bring work back to my house, but I need to quickly find out who she's working with and why. This is worse than what I thought. The plan to simply torture this woman and make an example of her, is changing. This is a wider problem than I originally expected. I need to make sure I get all the players before I let them go. I can torture information from the toughest of men, but it takes time, and that isn't something I have in this poor excuse of a living room.
