Chapter 32: Lost souls

I gasped, my hands cupping my mouth, my eyes wide. Sin was frozen in his spot, and I turned to him to assess his expression. There was nothing. His eyes were only slightly wide, but there was nothing else on his face.

The other man looked up, and he quickly moved away from the nurse, causing her to fall on the floor in the mess they had made. She gave a yelp, then started to search for her clothes, her fingers rather shaky and clumsy.

Slowly, Sin turned around, his eyes thinning now with murderous intent. Without a word, he walked towards the bathroom. There was a small service box tucked away, and he grabbed it and opened it.

Inside it was a large hammer, and he grabbed it, his lips pursed.

"Sin," I said, but he had already walked past me.

The nanny gave a squeal as she moved away from his path, and the next thing I heard was the sound of a hammer hitting flesh.

The still naked man who had only managed to get his boxers past his knees gave a loud scream, and I immediately sprang into action.

I ran down to Angel. She was on the couch, her brows furrowed as she looked upstairs.

"Sweetie," I said, leaning to her, my hands stretching to her. "Daddy is taking a shower. How about I make those toasts for you?"

She gave a small pout. "But daddy..."

"He will soon come down, okay? I promise you."

She finally nodded, and I carried her in my arms, then led her to the kitchen. There was a cute little apron, and I wore it on her as I brought out the things I would need.

She started to tell me more, about how the man, most probably the one upstairs would tell her that one day he would take her away from daddy, and soon, he would be her new daddy.

I closed my eyes at just how disgusting it all was. If they had a problem with Sin, they could just take it out on him. Why have such a dirty bastard prey on Angel?

I soon finished with the toast, and too afraid to risk sending her to any room at all, I rocked her to sleep on my lap. She soon fell asleep, maybe cause she was full. I stayed with her till after a few minutes, Sin finally came down.

He was wearing a pitch black casual V-neck shirt, a single chain on his neck, and large black pants. His eyes were cold, and he was still holding the hammer.

I looked down at it. It was bloodied, and he held it like he was holding something as normal as his phone.

"Sin," I said, my voice low.

He looked down at Angel, then towards me, his eyes slowly blinking. Gently, I let Angel rest on her own, and I walked up to him, my heart thumping hard in my chest.

"What happened?" I asked, my voice low. "What... why were they doing that?"

He swallowed, then pulled his other hand from his pocket. Without a word, he dialed a number, then put it on speaker, his eyes holding mine.

"Come get his body. I made sure to make it slow so he could see all of my daughter's things as he dies."

There was silence on the other side before a faint laughter came. "You are a bastard, Sin. Your mother opened her legs for everything with a rod and it fucking shows."

Sin swallowed, but said nothing.

"How could you kill him? How fucking dare you?"

Sin finally gave a small smirk. "I wondered why you made sure that I would leave for two weeks. I wondered why I couldn't attend the functions from home since it was all in the city. You were sending that guy to me. Does Larissa know?"

"Do you think she cares? Especially with everything you have just done, you think she gives a fuck about you?"

"This is her daughter!" Sin yelled, and I moved away from him to take Angel in my arms. "How could she have lived with herself if that man had gotten to Angel?"

"I doubt she cares since she is having a..."

Sin didn't let it finish before he smashed the phone on the floor, causing it to shatter into pieces, his eyes wide.

I swallowed, my brows furrowing, my chest heaving. I held Angel tighter, my chest heaving as Sin slowly turned away. I couldn't really trust anyone in the house, seeing what her nanny was doing, so I went after him, holding the still sleeping Angel in my hand. Sin passed right by her room to a massive room at the end. He entered it, grabbed a pair of keys, and turned to me.

Slowly, he collected Angel, then tucked her into bed, his eyes lingering on her for a while. He leaned to kiss her forehead, then adjusted the blankets around her before walking away.

"Sin," I said, catching his arm, my breath stopping in my throat as he turned to me.

"Are you coming?" he asked, but it wasn't exactly an invitation.

I let his hand go and immediately followed him as we went down the stairs.

"Get me the key to one of the smaller cars," he said to a serviceman standing outside.

The man immediately walked away, and I waited out with Sin, my hand wrapped around me. The man returned with a key, and Sin walked to the garage.

It was massive, with more cars than I could count before he found the car with the key he had been given. He got in, and I followed, my heart thumping with mixed feelings.

I would never understand why anyone would want to do that to Angel. Kidnapping her, using her as bait, things like those were at least around the normal range of madness. But assigning a potential creep to come unto her... to the extent of sleeping with someone else in her closet?

I could never understand.

Sin backed out of the compound at top speed, and I said a small prayer for the lost souls tonight.
