Chapter 78

Kyon was as white as a sheet. Damned old fart, why was he taking so long to reply?

Flitz approached Kyon like a sudden storm in the sea. He grabbed the boy by the collar and said in a hoarse, frightening voice:

«You… You are not lying, aren't you? Do you really know where she is?»

«I do! I can bet my head on it but not my balls! First things first, get me out of here!» – Kyon was talking a mile a minute.

«Uncle Flitz, stop fooling around! I've got work to do!» – Bilya pushed the old man aside and wanted to proceed with the execution, but Flitz pushed her back with so much force that she rolled on the floor with a squeal.

*thud* *thud* *thud* *thud*

Flitz tore the strong straps with his bare hands, slung Kyon behind his back and jumped out of the window like a meteor, just like he did last time.

Kyon could hear Bilya scream.

«Again?! You've deceived me again, old bugger! Just show up here another time!»

Kyon was relieved to have talked his way out of trouble again. Soon, Flitz put him on the ground and laid his heavy, wrinkled hand on his shoulder.

«Tell me where she is or I will rip off your balls myself!»

It was in Kyon's nature to take advantage of any situation. Now that Flitz had revealed his weakness, it would be a crime not to use it.

«I'll tell you everything, but first, you have to promise that my balls will stay with me safe and sound...»

«I'll leave your balls alone! Tell me!» – Flitz impatiently interrupted him.

«There's something more... Give me my sound transmitter back, take me to the mansion, and promise to do something for me.» – Kyon understood perfectly well that he was playing with fire. The old man would rip his heart out if he did not meet his expectations. And yet, Kyon took his chance.

Flitz immediately threw the sound transmitter into Kyon's hands and snapped:

«I swear to do anything you say! TELL ME!»

«First, take me to Juno's mansion. I will tell you everything there!»

Flitz snarled something under his breath. He grabbed Kyon by the hand so fiercely that he nearly tore it off and dashed to the mansion.

Somewhere far behind, Yegorka was yelling something indistinct. His expectations had been shattered. If Kyon had told Flitz his secret in the hospital, the old man would have run to the mansion, hanging him out to dry with Yegorka. Kyon had thought of everything.

They arrived at the mansion in a wink, thanks to Flitz's speeding step.

«This is your last chance, boy! Stop playing games with me, or I'll kill you!»

Kyon took a deep breath and said calmly:

«She is in the mansion. I'll take you to her.» – He decisively went inside.

Flitz couldn't understand. He had searched the entire estate over and over again. He had broken into the houses, turned everything upside down, and she... She had been with Juno all this time. With Juno...

Kyon went upstairs and knocked on the door to Marina's room. Flitz followed him. He didn't look himself.

Marina had just had her nails done. She cheerfully said:

«Coming!»

As Flitz heard the familiar voice, he could feel the goosebumps rise all over his body. Bliss replaced disbelief in his eyes. His dear girl had been in Juno's mansion all the time... All the time... What a fool he had been! He'd been looking for her everywhere except the mansion that he had forbidden her to approach!

As soon as Marina opened the door, the man she knew too well pulled her and held her tight.

Flitz buried his nose in her shoulder, inhaling the smell of the woman he loved. He was on cloud nine. He had missed her so much... He was afraid he would not see her again, and there she was in his arms... so warm, so soft, so dear.

«S..sir…» – Marina mumbled pitifully.

Filtz clung to her for dear life.

«My dear little Marina… You… You're a fool. Why didn't you tell me that you're with Juno? I've almost decayed alive without your sweet, lovely, tight butt... Do you understand?» – Flitz didn't know how to express his sincere feelings.

Marina's hands shook, tears of fear welled in her eyes.

«S...sir… I am… I am sorry…»

At that moment, Kyon was about to hate himself. He had sold Marina out for the sake of his balls. The half-dead, gross old man was pawing the girl Kyon loved like his family, like his own sister...

{Marina…} – Kyon bit his lip. He couldn't stand the old asshole touching his friend.

Flitz got handsy as if he had missed her butt more than the girl herself.

«I've missed you, obnoxious girl... I spent three weeks looking for you around the estate... I broke into all the houses where handsome guys lived, twisted their hands, beat information out of them. And you... You are so amazing, beautiful, sly... You're such a fool... How could you disobey my order and come to Juno. You've become so cheeky! Alright, let's go home. I will not let you go ever again. You won't run away from me anymore...»

Flitz pulled Marina's hand. She did not dare to utter any words of protest. She dragged her feet, trying to slow him as she did not want to go anywhere. Flitz kept pulling her by hand, ignoring her sluggish resistance.

Marina began to sob. She gave Kyon a tearful, imploring look that was worse than a bullet in his heart, asking him to save her.

For the first time in his life, Kyon had experienced an overwhelming feeling of guilt. It hurt like a knife in his heart. He could say Marina was a saint with no exaggeration. Now she was being dragged to the shriveled old man's bed like a mouse into the mousetrap. It was his fault.

Kyon instantly took out his sound transmitter that Flitz had given him back and ordered Juno to come to the front door at once. Only Juno had power over Flitz... She wouldn't allow him to hurt her friend. Kyon would save their disagreement for later.

Flitz was still dragging the weeping girl to the front door.

«Stop crying, stupid girl. I won't beat you. I'll just punish you a little for almost killing me with your rash decision.»

Marina was his happiness. He could let her cry as she pleased, but he wouldn't let her go, never again.

Marina did not want to return to Flitz. She didn't want to satisfy the disgusting, gross old man in bed... She hated doing all those dirty things, serving him, wearing sexy stuff for him... The mere thought of all that gave her heartache. And yet, she couldn't say no to him… He was her master. She lacked the courage to go against the man who was terrible in all senses of the term.

The three of them were approaching the front door.

Kyon was about to say something to Flitz to stop him, but there was no need for that. Juno had finally come, and she wasn't pleased with what she saw. The bald but seemingly whole and intact slave was brazenly looking into her eyes. The annoying old fart was taking her friend away from her.

Juno and Kyon stared at each other. Sparks between them could lead to an explosion.

Just as Kyon started to fear that Juno didn't care for Marina that much, something extraordinary happened... Juno approached him at arm's length and slightly lowered her head, which looked like pleading.

It was not difficult to guess that she was asking him to remove the chain of orders to save Marina. Juno needed her initiative, her voice, the expression of emotions... Kyon's restrictions didn't let her get what she wanted.

Kyon raised his eyebrows in surprise. He was stunned. The little beast actually stood for something... The haughty sadist who despised the lower classes of society had someone to protect.

He got closer to Juno's ear and whispered:

«Please, do everything to save Marina without involving me in that.»

At the same moment, Juno rushed to Flitz like fury with a battle cry:

«Flitz, old fart. If you dare to take Marina away, I will do my best and make sure your decrepit ass spends all your life behind bars!» – Juno approached her friend, grabbed her by hand and pulled her to herself.

Marina looked at Juno in surprise. Then she glimpsed at Kyon, who waved to her with the sound transmitter. {He... It was he who called Juno! Oh, Kyon...} - Marina was at the brink of tears with gratitude.

Flitz stood there like a scared goat.

«Little one... Do you even know who Marina is for me?»

«A sex toy that you mistreat! I said that Marina stays with me, and that's final!» – Juno said through her gritted teeth. She pulled her friend again but to no avail.

Flitz's face darkened. He snapped:

«She is my most valuable maid, and you are just a little brat who wants to take away my treasure! Do you ever think with your empty head? What are you talking about?» – Flitz would gladly send Juno to hell and go on dragging his precious booty, only he understood perfectly well that Juno's threats were not an empty sound. She could easily ask the patriarch for anything. Once he accidentally stroked her head, and she did not like it... After that, her grandfather broke some of his ribs, kindly warning him not to do that again.

Juno snorted viciously.

«Too bad for you! Now she's my friend! And my friends will not serve any perverted old men. Guards!»

Two guards in black suits and sunglasses were standing behind the door. They came inside and stood menacingly at Flitz's sides.

Marina was being pulled in both directions now. She sobbed pitifully.

Flitz was taken aback. He pointed his trembling finger at Juno, who was angrily looking into his eyes without a shadow of fear.

«You... You won't dare! I've been looking for her everywhere hell knows how long. I've almost died of grief. I can't live without her!»

Juno pulled a disgusted face:

«You disappoint me, Flitz. First, you send me this…» – She broke off mid-sentence. She wanted to mention Kyon, hinting that he was her "owner" so that the guards paid attention to that phrase, but he had ordered her "not to involve him." So, she continued as if nothing had happened. – «…Then I learned what dirty things you did to your maid. I used to call you a pervert as a joke! Now I see there's some truth behind every joke... I despise perverts most of all. Go away. I can't even look at you! Let go of Marina. My friend will never sleep with a decrepit ugly old man.»

Flitz turned pale. He slowly shook his head.

«No... I will not let her go... She doesn't understand how much I appreciate her... I do everything for her! I protect her, cherish her, take care of her, after all! She is the senior maid in my mansion! It's any girl's dream to be a powerful master's maid, isn't it? Any commoner would agree with me! They would give everything they have for this! Marina, tell her it's true!» – Flitz looked at Marina strictly and expectantly.

«Let go of me.» – Marina whispered, barely audible.

Flitz's eyes glazed over.

«No... Marina... How can you be so ungrateful? Where would you be now if I had not made you my maid?»

Kyon crossed his arms. He could not understand what was going on in Flitz's head. If he loved Marina, he should have treated her properly, cherish her. Instead, he treated her as his maid, taking all his lust out on her. He was always rather harsh and never let her talk.

«I want to stay…» – Marina mumbled quietly.
