Revenge Best Served à La Mode
The orange rays of the setting sun washed upon the dark decrepit walls of the Novak mansion. No light could be seen from any window, the moss and vines overgrowing on the walls and glass the only color to the estate. A soft breeze only helped sell the desolate chilly building all the worse.
Nikolai sat on his loveseat near the unlit fireplace, a whiskey in one hand and in the other, a cigarette mere inches from his face. The burning butt the only light in the room. The gloved man stared unwaveringly into the fireplace, two plumes of smoke escaping his nostrils. There was a furrow in his brow and a frown on his face, clearly upset.
It had been barely a week, yet it had been the worst week his pride could take. Despite his employee's best effort at a defense, the media had run wild with the news. Nikolai sucked the cloud of smoke into his lungs, exhaling the burning substance with a spiteful snarl. That fucking bitch stole his design, hell- it could have even been designs! That was the only explanation for how that godforsaken Jeremy Fritz- that knave- got his slimy little hands on it. What- just because Nikolai said that model's- was her name Mellie? Melda? not like it mattered- gait was like a dying pelican? The nerve of some people.
With a shout, he threw his have filled glass of whiskey at the fireplace, jerking up from his seat and onto his feet with unsteady legs. With panting breaths, he straightened, pushing his hair back with his hand. He took another drag from his cigarette, his shaking hands cupping it to his face. He was already on his fourth one. He sucked his teeth, eying the door before calmly taking his place back on the loveseat. He had called Naomi, his employee and friend to come to his mansion. Though he wasn't expecting anything, he severely needed someone to rant to. He could already imagine the blood of both those fucking swines dripping down his arms. Now that was something he didn't mind washing off.
