Alexander was sprawled on the couch, holding an old, yellowed photo. He glanced over at Daniel, who sat across from him.

Daniel's burns were so severe that he barely looked like the guy in the picture.

Daniel's one good eye was locked on Alexander.

"You know why. Spill what you know and save yourself some pain," Alexander said coldly.

Daniel chuckled, his scarred face making the smile creepy.

Alexander smirked. He handed the photo to Sean, who was standing nearby, then pulled out a cigarette. Sean quickly lit it for him.

"You don't know me well. You can't even begin to imagine what I'm capable of doing to you," Alexander threatened.
