Tenkai was just finally finishing up a few written papers that his boss had been demanding of him, as he finished, he set his pen down, stretching, as he heard a knock on the door, sitting behind his desk, he was wearing a kimono robe, and his black leather pants with a white t shirt, hearing the knock on the door, he looked up at the clock and realized it was pretty late, he shook his head, taking his hair out, he knew it was probably Isabella-Luciano wanting those paper work.

“Come in…. “ He said, softly speaking, he sat back in his chair, with an eyebrow raised, as the boss and Vela came in, confused by this, he had one of the butlers pour them some tea.

He then had the man pour him a shot of whiskey, as he sighed, now he had to know.

“Hello Tenkai, I know you are busy, we just wanted to talk to you privately… “ she said, as he nodded.

“Yes… Please have a, seat…. I hope I'm not in any trouble… Uhm… Your paperwork that you wanted it finally done, you can have them… “ He said, as he leaned forward giving them his full attention.

“No… I knew you have a lot to do, so I wasn't expecting that right away…. No you have been doing a good job…. Actually this is about something else.. “ She paused, taking a sip of her tea, along with Vela taking a seat next to her, “I am trusting you with this personally, and I would like, it if you would investigate these, few names… You have my acceptance to torture them to get the information, because I do not take to kindly of my body guards giving my whereabouts to my father, getting me into trouble…. When we all know I can, handle myself, I'm very set on omerta, and when the names go and give out information on me, it breaks the omerta, the law… “ She said, as she took another sip and setting her tea down.

“Yes, Ma’am, I can understand where both parties are coming from, but they still broke the code…. So you want me to figure out what information they told him besides what you think they told him… Makes since. “ He said, picking up his drink, and gulped it down in one gulp, and set the glass down gently.

“Yes, so i would like you and Vela to do this for me, and Tenkai, I want you to take the lead on this… As a gang leader, I want to see how well you do, so make sure you keep me in the loop.” She said, as she adjusted herself to what seemed more comfortably.

As the moon’s light gazed upon him, his hair started to turn white, his eyes glowed, showing he was an immortal, and not of this world entirely.

“That is what you came and found me for, you know boss, you are the only one who has ever looked me up, and the only one who has ever dared to even get close to me, so for that I will do what you asked of me… Vela, are you ready to have a little fun, and to see why I chose you by my side?” He said, as he smirked a little showing his saber tooth fangs a little, from the small gap that his lips made.

He then raised a brow as the male took the paper that she offered, as the male gave it to him, he nodded, letting his smirk fad.

“Alright boss, this will be handled with great care.” He said as he popped his neck and his knuckles, his now white hair moved a little.

He then stood up, without another word, glad to be doing some dirty work finally, he didn't look back to see Vela follow him, he knew that already, he could sense her, he then stopped seeing one of his, own bodyguards.

“You ...make sure the boss is escorted anywhere she needs to go… Do not leave her side until she is back in her own quarters and safe, I don't care what she wants… You leave her side… And I will do things to you, that the boss won't do… I am very creative… You understand?” He threatened, looking at the male with his golden purplish black eyes, forgetting his hair was now white as snow.

“Y… yy yes sire….” The male stuttered, as they walked on, seeing from the corner of his eyes that he was going right away.

He then went over to the boss’s side of the tower, he then looked at the list, seeing the two men that were the only names on the list, he nodded to vela, as they started to back up, turning to run away.

Tenkai disappeared, and reappeared, in front of them, now they had just turned, “Hello….I have a few questions I want ask..but first..” He paused, as he used his elbow, to knock out the first one, the second backing up...as he watched Vela grab the second one from behind, choking him, to make him pass out, he smirked, shrugging, he then picked up the two men, and put them over his shoulder.

“Did you have to seem like a big scary badass...Tenkai, there are other ways of getting a hold of them, without bashing their faces in…” She said, as they walked to the dungeons, he laughed.

“Vela, babygirl, that is nicer than, what we will be doing to them later.

He could see in the dark, but didn't know if Vela could, so he lifted up his hand, and light up some fire on the torches, with just his hand, he then grabbed it, and handed it to her, so she could see.

As they walked down the stairs, he could see the old stones, they were old, and wet, he could also hear drops of water, seeping down, he smirked, liking the creepy vibe, about the tower.

He then took the last step, and he saw the ropes, and set the two down, on the floor.

As he set them down he walked over and grabbed the ropes and tape, he tied their hands together and hooked them on the old hook that was handing, he then tied some rope around their waist, and tied the other end to the bars of the old cells, and tied up their feet, and hook the rope in the old loop thing that was stuck in the floor, so they couldn't kick him.

As he finished, he turned on a light, that was just on them, and he blew out the torch, and had Vela and himself, wait in the shadows to wake up.

Vela nibbled on her fingernails as she scanned the outside area from inside the car. She was seated next to her beloved leader, Isabella Luciano of The Ivory Tower. She was far from just an ‘excellent’ and ‘competent’ leader, as Vela admired her perseverance and willingness to maintain communication in the family. It was why they were going to visit Tenkai in his office. Vela’s spectacular friend, whose enthusiasm you couldn’t let slip your view. It was one of the main reasons that she loved being in his company, as well as Isabella’s because they both motivated Vela to come out her comfort zone. She would forever appreciate that, and now as she saw the tower just few a minutes away, Vela straightened her posture and turned to Isabella. “I’m ready, boss.” Vela assured, nodding as she stepped out of the vehicle following behind her. Vela had always admired the look of the tower, and she was pleased to see the aesthetically pleasing design of it. Immortal beings seemed to have a particular eye for creativity. As Vela thought Tenkai would have.

When she walked in behind Isabella into his office, he was shuffling some papers. After a graceful knock, he looked up and greeted both Vela and Isabella with a warm, inviting smile. Vela sensed the bizarre look on his face, and she was excited to get rid of it. Isabella did the honours, and handed him a list of names that were to be tracked down. The torturous event would be up to Vela and Tenkai. Vela stood up from the seat, a devilish smile appearing on her face though she could not help the nerves that she was feeling at the time. The only way to shake them off would be to beat someone’s head in, or so she thought. Vela was ready, but at the same time, half of her felt bad that the bodyguards would be taken captive by them, as a result of them only trying to do what they thought was best for the Don. Vela shook her head, taking a sip from the tea that Tenkai poured for her before dismissing her invalid thoughts. Nevermind that. Vela had no reason to stray away from the boss’ orders, and off she went with Tenkai to deliver the message to the bodyguards.

Don’t kill the messenger. The messenger kills you, Vela thought to herself as she suddenly witness Tenkai using his immortal powers to teleport in front of the bodyguards. Her body moved as fast as a cheetah on a hunt for its prey, and was eager to make one of the two bodyguards pass out with just one chokehold. She struggled at first, but her grip around his neck became tighter. “Give up now..” She sighed, before the bodyguard’s eyelids shut tight, giving the signal that she could unclasp her arms around his neck. Laughs were exchanged as she walked with Tenkai to the place where they knew they could torture them in private without mercy. The dungeons were Tenkai’s second home it seemed, as she saw how easy it was for him to move in the darkness. As his trusted partner on this assignment, she thought she could have the same capabilities as him, but she could only see darkness in front of her. She shuffled in the dark, holding onto Tenkai’s arm, but she let go when she finally saw a flicker of light emerge from a simple hand movement. “Alright alright I get it. You’re amazing.” She rolled her eyes as she fought back a smirk. It wasn’t long before they reached the deepest part of the dungeon, and she watched Tenkai place the two troublemakers on the stone floors. “Uh they might wake u-..” She doubtfully spoke, but saw that he already had the required materials to keep them in place. “Yup. Was just about to mention. Ropes and tape. Perfect..” She took a seat on the floor, just a fair distance from the two men in case they would try to escape. Vela saw Tenkai do the job of tying them up to a hook, so all that there was left to do was listen to the eerie wind passing through the dungeon.

When all was said and done, there was no light except for a tiny flicker of glow that Tenkai was shining on both him and Vela. She sat cross-legged next to Tenkai, like a loyal puppy. Vela nibbled on her fingernails again as she waited for an eyelid to twitch from either of the two men. “So what are we going to do when they wake up?” Vela questioned, looking up at Tenkai. There was a flicker of excitement in her eyes when she realized that being alone with these men in the dungeon meant they could do anything. Isabella didn’t specify what they should actually do besides torture them in a general sense, so Vela brought her knees up to her chin and thought for a moment. A sound of struggle distracted her thoughts, as she noticed one of them groan in pain. “Why is my neck fucking sore?” A bodyguard shot, looking around him to figure out where he could be. Vela looked at Tenkai in response with raised eyebrows and gestured for him to take the first action. "All yours, captain." She provoked.

Tenkai looked up , after hearing them move , he gave a smirk of promise of sadistic fun , he stood up , stretching his fingers as they popped, then stretched the rest of his body , popping his joints , he needed that , after having sat there for hours , he then , walked along the wall scraping his now fingr nails, that turning to claws , giving a chalk board sound , as he walked away , walking towards the one that spoke .

"We are going to play a little game .....each time I ask a question , and you don't answer I cut ...With these .."  He paused, showing his now claws , as he gave a dark laugh , seeing the small horrer on his ,face .

"Yeah right ...like the boss is going to let you get away with this ......besides , I answer to the boss directly ." The male said , as Tenkai laughed more .

"That is the thing ...Your employer , my boss/mother , is the one who came to me directly , and approved me to do this...if I have to repeat my original sentence let me know, and I will repeat it .. Not that I like repeating myself, but for you I will ."  He said , as he quickly slashed his shirt off without ever cutting his skin .

"No, I heard you clearly. ." The male said, he seemed to shaking from what Tenkai just did, "You don't have to do this ....we are of the same family .... Why would you go this ,far ?" the male asked .

"Good man ....we'll you see, Omerta is very important in this world , and if the boss can't trust you enough to keep a secret , how can we trust you to have pur backs ?" He paused , as he raised an eyebrow , thr male gulped . " I thought so , so first question...what information did you give out to thr boss's father .. Now mind you .....I don't get an answer that is correct , I will cut something.. " Tenkai said , as he then stood back a little to see thr mans face.

"I ....don't think I. ." He started to scream ,as Tenkai used one of his claws to try and detach one thr males finger nails .

Tenkai slid one of his , claw like nail , under thr mans ,nail cutting into his nail bed startingvto lift up thr nail but ripping it up ,and he stopped a minute before finishing

"Now , let me ask you again , what did you tell Isabella-Luciano's fatherfather ?" Tenkai spoke softly , as he gave an evil smile .

"I....can't say ....Aaaaaahhhhh" He screamed as Tenkai ripped the rest of the males nail up , going to the next one .

"You going to answer ?" Tenkai said,  as he looked back at Vela.

"Aaaahhh ...." The male screamed again , as Tenkai started to rip up another nail .

Vela watched him carefully, his body slowly rising from the ground, waiting for what his next move would be. She would follow suit in whatever he was planning to do, but she couldn't help the battle of nerves in her body. Could she really bring herself to harm two protectors, even though they did Isabella wrongly, Vela would still feel bad for them and their families, who would have to listen to a report the next morning that their loved one had been captured by members of a secret organization, left for dead in an eerie dungeon. She couldn't help but shiver when she saw the corners of Tenkai's mouth quirk up, a sign that it was the beginning of his torturous antics. Vela shut out her other thoughts and returned her attention to the situation at hand, centered around the two, oblivious men looking around in confusion. As the screeching sound of Tenkai's long nails echoed through the creepy atmosphere, Vela held her breath and only hoped for what was to come. Tenkai revealed his sharp claws to the men, making them flinch as their faces turned pale. One of the two males scoffed, exclaiming that his boss would never do such a thing. Vela pursed her lips knowing he had gotten it all wrong. Vela surrendered to the plan, despite the nerves, knowing that if she was put in her boss' shoes, she too would be irritated if one of her bodyguards revealed her whereabouts making the Godfather mad. The silence that filled the air was incredibly tense, and it heightened when she heard Tenkai telling the men that he'd cut a part of their body if they answered any of his questions incorrectly. 

Her expression hardened when she realised this would be a deadly game of question and answer. She still wasn't fully trained about how to lead these things, which is why she let Tenkai make the first actions. Vela raised her eyebrows as she took in the sight of an immortal beast in front of her, his voice calm yet so sinister that it frightened her almost. First blood had been drawn when Vela saw him dig his claws under the nail of the man who spoke back from before. "Now let me ask you again..." Tenkai demanded, using a tone of disgust to intimidate the nervous victims. It was an unfortunate event that she could not have the same impact as Tenkai, even if she was stronger than most, she was a mortal being unlike Tenkai. She could almost feel his inner strength, and it provoked her inner wolf. No one else knew about her wolf heritage besides the family. She remembered the time when she first approached her current boss, Isabella, as Vela revealed the dirty, wolf secrets of the past. Through bloody wounds and sharp teeth, Vela was able to showcase her strength- but immortality, there was no chance. She looked away from the sight of the man screaming in agony as his nail was suddenly chipped off, biting hard on her tongue to suppress a statement of objection. Vela knew better than to disturb Tenkai in his element. Anyways, he could use some stress relief. Back at the headquarters, sometimes she would see him in a raging fit in his own office, going on about someone picking his pockets that day probably. 

Time was being used wisely. Another nail had been brutally ripped off from one of the man's fingers. She caught a glimpse of Tenkai's devilish grin in her direction, and she forced a smile in return, but she could not say anything back. Vela watched like a hawk as a small puddle of red was forming on the stone floors. "Alright Tenkai, enough..." Vela hesitated with her sentence, but she decided to challenge the assumptions and make her first move in torturing the other man. "My turn now, move aside." She raised her eyebrows, surprising herself with her sudden boost of adrenaline. Vela got up off the ground, swiping off any dust that may have flown onto her clothes when she entered this bat-cave looking dungeon. She put a hand on her hip and observed the man who was wailing in pain, thinking of other ways to get the answers they needed for the boss. She looked at Tenkai first, signalling him to move aside with a dismissal wave and an assuring smile. "I got this. You rest now. Look at you, your heart is racing like a damn rabbit running from a tiger." She hissed, slightly worried that his blood pressure was gradually increasing. Vela stared suspiciously at the two men, whose heads were already on the chopping block, their meat ready to be served on a pretty dish. "Don't tell us WHAT you told him, because we know. All my friend and I here want to know is WHY you told Godfather Sal her locations, when you guys know she can handle herself. Is someone putting you up to this? Someone trying to make her own father turn against her? Tell us or I swear to everything almighty my inner wolf will be very displeased, and might have to bite off a leg or two." She tapped her sneakers lightly against the ground, looking around the dungeon as she waited for their responses.

Tenkai, raising a brow a Vela, and nodded as he took a step back, backing up so far int the dark shadows, only his eyes to show he was still there, he watched as Vela tormented him with such soft words, making him shiver from excitement, his long,black, curly hair, falling over his shoulder, almost like he was appearing out from the gap between the strands of his hair, appearing out of the shadows, he smirked, watching the males chest rise and fall, he could see a bead of sweat sliding down his forehead.

As he watched he began to think back on his own torture session, that was being done to him, to give out ancient family secrets, as he was tortured, he never cried out for once, for he knew, he could never get out of it, but he could find a weak spot, and get out, those were his only options, to let them think he was being broken, and to then and only then turn and get them where they least expect it.

Coming back to reality, he heard Vela ask the male,"Don't tell us WHAT you told him, because we know. All my friend and I here want to know is WHY you told Godfather Sal her locations, when you guys know she can handle herself. Is someone putting you up to this? Someone trying to make her own father turn against her? Tell us or I swear to everything almighty my inner wolf will be very displeased, and might have to bite off a leg or two." She tapped her sneakers lightly against the ground, looking around the dungeon as she waited for their responses. 

He watched, seeing the male, not respond, he raised an eyebrow, "You know, he is playing you right?....besides, I don't think this man believes you can do anything to him, he probably thinks you are too nice...but I would listen to her, because she learned it from me, and sometimes I hear she can be a bit, well...more like mind breaking, or so the rumors tell me, I would be careful, because they say that women wolves are ore unstable, when it comes to emotions, and torture...especially when they don't get what they want.." He said softly, as he leaned back, in a crouch, on an old stone table, he chuckled a bit, looking up and around on the walls.

Vela bent down and made eye contact with the two men, her eyes dancing between them. She slowly raised her index finger and slid it across the left man's forehead as the corners of her mouth quirked up. Once she had received approval from Tenkai to do whatever she likes, Vela knew her inner wolf wouldn't stop at nothing. She tried to calculate in her head how long it would take to amputate each body part of the two men kneeling in front of her, but she decided to kill them with kindness instead, and maybe make them comfortable first before they start speaking. "Fine. You don't wanna talk? Let's talk about something else. You have family, right?" Vela intruded, inspecting her fingernails and showing that she wasn't asking to be polite, but rather to threaten them with a subject that they were probably sensitive to. One of the men raised his head swiftly, drops of sweat running down his sideburns, and he whispered momentarily. "No... no.. Please! I'm begging you. Don't hurt my family, all they have is each other in this world. Please!" The man beckoned to the other guard beside him and let out a cry. "Both of us have families! Please. Just do whatever you want with us, for I am not speaking about your Don no more. If killing us means that our families get to survive, so be it!" Both of their heads were now hanging in shame, and it appeared that they had accepted their fate. "Is that so. Well, I respect that you have to come to terms with the fact that both of you have broken the code of omerta, and that is unforgivable." Vela faintly spoke, letting her gentle yet harsh words linger in the air. 

The deathly silence that surrounded the four people made its way out of the cave, because now Vela's inner wolf took over. It was like witnessing a spiritual transformation, from the way her mouth twitched from anger and the unfamiliar body language that she exuded was different from how Vela would react. Before proceeding with her vital plans to destroy them, she sneaked a glance at Tenkai and gave him a serious look, but she felt her shoulders relax. She needed Tenkai to keep her sane, as though her inner wolf may be tiny compared to other pack wolves, the emotional torture she would lash out on her victims were brutal. Vela stood up cautiously from the ground. "You have broken the inner wolf in me, and she is beyond furious. You have crossed the line. You mess with Isabella, death is the wage." Vela fumed, the words never leaving her eyes. She looked down at the two men again, and saw that their expressions were blank, and minds corrupted. She didn't know if someone set them up, or if they really did what they did. Vela kept her eyes on them as she revealed her claw-like hands. The fur that surrounded it was black as her hair, which would camouflage with the night shadows that bounced off the deep waters under the moonlight. The men's eyes were glued to her sharp nails that emerged from the darkness of her fur. 

They could not bring themselves to say a word, afraid for their life, and the fact that they could be ripped to shreds any minute now. Vela was certain that would happen anyways, but the point of Vela and Tenkai forcefully dragging them into the cave was to torture them right? With the task set in her mind, she approached them closer than before, on all fours. The mind of her inner wolf was set on one thing, and one thing only- to give them the worst mind-fuck of all time. Vela's wolf calmly sat herself down, her breaths slow and steady. She pushed the air that came out of her nose deliberately onto the two men as her jaw set. Her wolf was beyond ravenous at this point, and Vela could tame her, but she decided to leave it up to the wolf inside of her for this one because she had made her suffer enough. Wolves who have stayed tamed for so long will experience massive withdrawals because their emotions have been bottled up for so long, and they haven't been given the chance to exercise their capabilities. Thus, Vela would have posed the risk of becoming weaker. Tonight would be bloody, she told herself. For now, she stayed quiet as her eyes stared back at the dull and sunken eyes that looked back at her. Vela's intention would be to gradually make them extremely frightened to the point that they will beg for death. She hoped that they would also end up confessing about who put them up to the mission of sabotaging Isabella's plan of keeping her father from knowing her whereabouts. Vela had sensed that maybe Sal was like a helicopter father, constantly looking over his daughter's shoulder to see if she was with someone that may be a bad influence to her or in any place that she wasn't supposed to be. 

Vela could respect that, and so could her inner wolf because it was a protective act to her. However, when you swear to your life that you'll protect the boss, and suddenly push her aside, there will surely be consequences. The guilt that she was feeling from the start had now vanished completely. Her furry bottom connected with the ground, as she suddenly let out a howl that pierced through the men's ears. In the back of her still conscious mind, she was worried that Tenkai might be bothered by the sound, but she only pointed the sound towards the guards hoping that it might decrease the impact coming towards his direction. "Unless you have an ingenious thought about why it would be beneficial for me to let you survive, I will have to make you suffer. Is that clear to the both of you?" There was one thing that shocked Vela when she first found out she was a wolf. Her voice could be transmitted even when she was in her wolf form. It must have been a family thing, because she once witnessed her mother speaking while her body was still coated in that extremely rare and fine fur. Vela let out another deafening howl. The sharpness of her teeth could be visibly seen now, and it caused for one of the men to tremble and fall to his hands. Still kneeling, he cried out into the stone ground. "Ahhh! Please! Stop!" He wailed, desperately trying to shut her wolf cries out. 

It all seemed to happen in a blur, and Vela howled at Tenkai, her eyes flickering with anger. "Move further out. I don't want you to get hurt." She spat on the stone walls, and revived the soul that had been kept buried for so long. Her body was lifted from the ground, her claws ready to pounce on the men that dare to destroy the empire that the Don had built. Her wolf was kept devoid of any mercy now, and she moved her snout right to the left man's nose tip, skin touching. Vela pulled her face closer, which then caused her nose to slip down to the man's cheeks. In one rigorous movement, she then bit the head off the dude, the walls of her mouth almost swallowing him whole. It was bloody fantastic, in a bittersweet way. The walls seemed to shake inside the cave, as if by the power of her furiousness she had somehow caused the world to experience a rumble in the ground. As the man used all the energy inside of him to scream out, Vela gave him ten last seconds to say his last words. Her wolf figure towered over him as her patience was starting to wear out. "P-p-please." Vela let him speak as her eyes were now focused on the blood that was forming on his scalp. "T-t-tell my family that I love them with everything that I am." His life was coming to an end, but it should have been over ten seconds ago. With one last breath of fresh air that the man could take, Vela bit down hard as her teeth dug into his mortal neck. Blood spurted in every direction, some of it even landing on the walls and on the other's man face. She swiftly backed off afterwards and observed the man who was now lying in his death bed.

"Sleep well, darling. I'll see you in hell."~

Tenkai sat there and watched, nodded , to her , each time she looked back , as he stayed in his crouch , intently watching as the men , started to do a hardcore sweat, yet they still didn't say a word , he loved the way they used omerta, he risked , in annoyance , as he combed his fingers through his hair .

His eyes widened in excitement , seeing vela starting to transform , it was almost like a whole nother spirit there , as the wind started to blow around them, he being uneffected by the noise , he looked as her hands we're turning into paws , nails turning into claws , he gasped , seeinng her fur , that was once skin , he could hear speaking in that form , which he didn't understand how , since she wasn't projecting those words to him. 

He realized she was trying to save the not kill them , but when they didn't even answer , even at the very end , he watched , as her mouth wraps around the mens head , one at time , ripping it off , he realized she was in fact huge, he had heard legends , but seeing it in person was a whole nother ball game, he had to calm her down , before she ran off. 

He then hopped down quietly, so as not make her jump, for he was a beast as well , he was her alpha , and he needed her calm , using his immortal instincts , barely letting a noise come from, as he became lighter , he could see she was about to flip ,she had just had a taste if blood after so long , he could tell , he knew that look anywhere. 

As he suddenly appeared before her , he had his hands up , as if he was trying to make a truce , using his immortal alpha eyes, to let her see , he wanted her calm .

"Vela , look at me babygirl , remember me ?"  He asked, as he started to get close to pet her head, he wanted her to know , hse was still his wolf .

As he got down to her level , he crouched directly in front of her , as he put his hand out , to let her smell his scent , it was a sign of respect to the wolves , and he would have wanted it done for him , but then everyone was different , he thought .
