Nathan’s POV
I could see the fear in his eyes as he begs for mercy, I know he regrets his actions now, but I also know he is as scared as hell. I must confess, a part of me wanted to listen to his pleas for mercy, I was a little touched by his apology but I couldn’t let him go so easily. If I show any form of weakness in front of them, they will take me for granted and they will attempt another revolt. Every often, I keep turning to my father and his son, glaring furiously at them, making them nervous. I want him to think that I am coming after them as well, I love seeing that fear in their eyes, it kind of makes me feel good.
I know it sounds weird, but that is just the truth. I want to make a statement with my actions today, I want them to stay the hell out of my way, I need them to stay in line because I won’t show any mercy to anyone that goes against me, not even if they are family. I ignored my father as he tried to pleas on their behalf, I guess he still thinks that he still has the right to speak in front of me. He would make an attempt to speak up, but when I turn to meet his eyes, he would turn away immediately and he would take a step back, removing himself from the equation.
I watched as Travis hot dragged to the center of the arena with his father crying and begging like a child, but I paid no need to his pleadings, I went on with my plans, showing no sign of weakness or remorse. I watched him run for his life as the dogs chased after him relentlessly. He nearly staggered and fell, but he regained his composure and balance and he kept running like hell because his life depended on it. The dogs were aiming for his left leg that has been smeared with dog treats, they were getting closer to him but he didn’t stop running, he didn’t even turn to look at them. He was getting closer to the guys and the dogs were gaining on him as well. He was so close, so damn close. A few more steps and he would have been in the clear, but my dogs are so damn hungry, they refused to let him go unhurt. Just before he could take his last steps, one of the dogs leaped forward and sank its sharp took into his left leg, making him scream out in pain as the dog dragged him down. The others caught up with him as well and they all sank their teeth into his leg, leg making him scream and yell out in pain as he struggled to get away from them. He reached out and tried pulling their teeth away from his body, but he could never win against three hungry Rottweilers. They kept fighting and struggling with each other, trying to tear his left leg off his body.
“Nathan, please, he is my only son, he is your brother. You have to forgive him, please I beg you. Let him go, take me instead, kill me in his place, please Nathan, I beg of you. I don’t have a second family like your father, he is all I have, he is my life. Please, Nathan, I’m so sorry for all we did to you, it’s all my fault, take me instead, let me pay for our mistakes, but please spare my son I beg of you. We will never try something like that, we would never go against you ever again, you will never lay eyes on us ever again, I swear it, I promise, I beg you… I beg you… I beg you.” My uncle pleaded hysterically as we watched Travis and the Rottweilers. I could see his blood all over the floor and it was dripping from the mouth of the dogs as well. My uncle lay at my feet, crying and begging for mercy. Travis was yelling and crying for help, begging for mercy, making me smirk in satisfaction.
From the corner of my eyes, I could see my father's little protégé, he had tears in his eyes as he watched on in fear. My father could no longer meet my eyes, he just stared into space, lost in his own thoughts. Regret was written all over his face, I know he also feels guilty for his own mistakes and I’m so glad that he is here to witness this. I hope he learns his lesson from all this, I hope he drops his stupid plans of stealing the company for his son. If I ever find out that he kept on with his plans against me, I would come for him and I wouldn’t mind the fact that he is my father, I would treat him the same way as I treated other traitors, I won’t show him mercy.
I gave the signal to the guys at the other end of the field, telling them to stop the dogs. They have been standing at the same spot all along, watching him as he screams in pain and agony. They are the closest to him and I could see him reaching out to them and begging them to help him, but they just stood in their position and watched. They wouldn’t dare to make a move without my permission. They had the dog foods right there with them, it is locked away in a little box behind them. When I gave them my signal, they turned around and opened the box, they brought out the dog food and poured it out into three different bowls, then they ordered the dogs to come and they obeyed immediately. It’s always so funny when they do that, they are so good at their jobs and the dogs obey their every instruction. The dogs left Travis and went to the bowls that lay in front of the dog trainers, they completely forgot about Travis and the treats on his left leg. He lay on the floor, crying like a baby while his father was still lying at my feet, sobbing hysterically.
