Love Unspoken

Alexander lounged in his chair, legs crossed, casually smoking a cigarette. Flanking him stood about a dozen burly bodyguards, all stoically gazing at Sebastian.

To Sebastian's left stood David, a middle-aged woman nearing sixty with silvering hair, her eyes welled with tears as she watched Sebastian's agony.

Glancing at his wristwatch, Alexander remarked nonchalantly, "Ten minutes are up."

Kyle, upon hearing this, felt a shiver down his spine but signaled silently to the bodyguards on the side. They understood, and one of them drew a dagger from his waist, crouching before Sebastian.
