White Queen Ascending

A man brushing his clothes that were stained with blood stealthily walks towards the Mavi mansion.

He looked around him cautiously and when he saw that there's no one around, he continued his way inside.

He licked his lips and formed a smile. His heart could not stop from beating loudly because of the excitement he felt this morning.

He remembered what he did a while ago, and his smile couldn't help but grow wider. His smile could make any girl infatuated. Too bad though, the bloodthirst in his eyes is still apparent and gives off chills to anyone who sees them.

His friend told him that he'd give him 'gifts' and so, he hurriedly left the mansion. Upon his arrival at their meeting place, he could no longer hide his excited feelings.

In front of him, were several tied up children whose noses were filled with snots, and have obviously bawled their eyes out.

"What do you think of the gifts I prepared this time?" A man wearing golden and flamboyant outfit said to the man who just arrived.

"Good! Good!" The man repeatedly said good, and his expression couldn't hide his ecstasy.

"Hey, I have lots of new tools too. Look at this huge nails! I ordered them from a famous blacksmith in the neighboring town. Looks good right?" The other man boasted.

"You sure did a good job Lark." The man said while grinning creepily.

"Of course, who do you think I am? Garth Mavi, it's playtime! HAHAHA!"

Soon, the two started their 'game'. One by one, the children started crying loudly like a pig being slaughtered.

"Nooo!" A kid shouted as he saw his sister being skinned alive.

"Little boy, it'll be your time soon. Don't be in a hurry." Garth laughed maniacally. He enjoy the sound of the children's cry and pleading. Hearing them gives him intense p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e.

Garth Mavi expertly moved the knife, removing a thin layer of skin from the girls face. The girl cried, but no words came out from her mouth. She's too tired, all she wanted is for everything to just end.

Half of her face is filled with blood. The outer skin was removed exposing the muscle tissues inside. She could feel every cut of the knife, and her sense of touch was enhanced by the nerves that were broken.

She felt cold. The wind felt like shards of ice that strikes her body continuosly.

Not longer, Garth began to skin her body. It's no longer by smaller pieces, but he is now removing larger part of her skin. He suddenly had an idea and stopped from playing with his knife. He took a candle and lit it. He pointed it towards the girl, and let the melting wax fall into her 'unskinned' body.

"S-stooop!" She shrieked. Her supposed to be protection, was already removed and the wax directly fell into the layer beneath her skin. She can only shout, while Garth takes p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e in her pain.

Not long after, the girl eventually became numb. She appears to be staring at the ceiling. She couldn't see, or hear anything. All her senses were shut down.

"Hey little girl, the game isn't done yet. Don't disappoint this big bro." Garth teased. But the girl still stayed silent, not minding his words.

Suddenly she screamed. No longer aware of what's happening. She just screamed in fear, not knowing where she got the strength to shout. She felt dizzy and confused. In the end she lost consciousness and the shout just now, was like the realization of the upcoming death. Atleast, losing awareness was a great relief for the girl.

When the girl finally died, her brother immediately puked his guts out. He cried and cried, not willing to accept that his sister died a gruesome death, and that his time is near too.

"Tsk. Died just like that." Garth frowned, not feeling satisfied. He picked up the skin he removed, then hanged it up on a hook. Then, when he looked at the innards of the girl that were a bit exposed, he took them out. He pulled her intestines and put it beside her skin. After that, he took the heart and the other organs and crushed them with his hands and feet.

When he remembered what he just did, he suddenly had the urge to go back and continue their game. He was about to turn around, but immediately stopped on his track. Because when he got near his courtyard, he saw his son still awake.

Indescribable glint passed through his eyes, as he suddenly pulled up his son.

"Daddy!" The young boy greeted happily. "I've been waiting for you!"

"Really, Dax?" He smiled. Garth shook his head inwardly. This boy is still his son. He controlled his urges and put down the young Dax.

He went inside his room to change. When he went out, he saw his wife sitting on a couch, her face was pale. He frowned, but soon smiled and returned to his usual gentle demeanor.

"Were you waiting for me as well?" He asked.

The woman bit her mouth. "You.. I know what you've been up to! I've always disregarded everything you do! But don't you harm my son!"

Garth now finally can't make a smiling face. "What do you mean?"

"Of all the years we've been together, do you think I won't notice anything? Yet, even knowing them, I didn't say anything! When I saw you picking up my son, and how your eyes looked at him, I felt mad!!" She cried. Her face is pale, and her lips were trembling. Even though she is really scared of her husband, she still stood up for her child.

Garth lost his cool and grabbed his wife's neck. "Shut your mouth, s.l.u.t!"

*Sobs sobs* "let go.."

"Oh? I will." He said that but he didn't remove his hand. "Since when did you know, my dear Cristina?" His voice is filled with coldness, making Cristina felt her goosebumps all over her body.

"I-I.." she haven't finished what she's going to say, when Garth said, "Better seal your mouth properly, or else.. I will kill you."

What's the reason of him hiding his filthy hobby? Isn't it to protect his image as the perfect son of an aristocrat, and the kind gentleman everyone adores?

He'd spare the woman for now. Besides, she gave him a son. Take it as her reward for that.

Feeling greatly dissatisfied, he once again left his house and walked around the vicinity of the mansion.
