Chapter 106: It’s Okay Maya.

"She’s right, Jones," Austin interrupted smoothly, a smirk tugging at his lips. His tone was calm, almost lazy, but it carried an undercurrent of menace. "The fact that you touched the female traitor without informing me already warrants punishment. But I’m feeling generous. Now that Ayra is back, I’ll let her handle the matter however she sees fit. The traitors are doomed, of course, but their deaths will be by her hand." His eyes flicked to Scarlett, a glint of amusement and admiration in them.

Scarlett forced herself to smile, leaning in to press a light kiss to Austin’s cheek. "Thank you, Austin. I’ll better rest tonight and gain my strength so as to punish them better tomorrow than dealing with them now that I’m weak," she said sweetly, though internally she loathed every second of the gesture.

She despised herself for the act but knew it was necessary to maintain her façade. The real Ayra would have likely gone further, perhaps straddling him on the spot or dropping to her knees and take his dick in her mouth to display her gratitude. Scarlett, however, settled for the peck and hoped it was convincing enough.

Jones cursed loudly, his face twisted with fury. "Fuck this!" he growled, his voice echoing through the room. His gaze burned with hatred as he stormed toward the door, slamming it shut behind him as he left.

Scarlett exhaled slowly, her hands trembling ever so slightly as she clenched them at her sides. The tension remained thick in the air, but she knew she had won this round.

"We should leave too. You owe me a proper thank-you in the room," Austin said with a smug grin as he grabbed Scarlett’s hand.

Scarlett offered him a warm smile and nodded her head in agreement, hiding the disdain bubbling beneath her calm exterior, and began walking alongside him toward the exit.

Once outside, Austin turned to the two naked guards stationed by the door. "Make sure you keep your eyes open," he ordered, his tone sharp. "Don’t let anyone inside except me and Ayra. Jones is not to enter this room again."

"Yes, boss!" the guards responded in unison, bowing slightly.

Austin then pressed a series of buttons on a keypad, and the door slid shut with a faint mechanical hum. Satisfied, he resumed walking, pulling Scarlett along with him down the dimly lit hallway.

They soon reached the main building of the organization, where the rhythmic pounding of music filled the air. The scene was chaotic, naked citizens swayed and danced to the beat, their movements wild and unrestrained. Scarlett’s stomach churned at the depravity surrounding her, but she kept her expression neutral.

"I need to use the toilet," Scarlett suddenly said, her voice raised just enough to be heard over the noise. "I can’t hold it any longer. I’ll meet you in the room."

Austin turned, his lips curling into a sly grin. "Alright," he said, his voice dripping with innuendo. "Be quick. I’ll be waiting for you. And tonight..." His voice dropped to a lustful growl. "I’ll fuck you so hard you won’t be able to stand straight."

Scarlett forced a tight-lipped smile and nodded. As Austin turned and strode away, she watched him go, her smile dropping the moment his back was turned.

’And I can’t wait to chop your dick into pieces,’ she thought, her face hardening with anger.

She made her way to the restroom, entering quickly. Once inside, she activated her invisibility ability, her body shimmering briefly before disappearing entirely. Moving swiftly, she exited the restroom and began making her way back to the holding room where Garvin, Ethan, Larry, and Maya were being kept.

As she walked down the hallway, Scarlett systematically smashed the CCTV cameras mounted on the walls, her movements precise and deliberate. She knew the guards in the security room had abandoned their posts to join the revelry, leaving the cameras unchecked. Even if they reviewed the footage later, they would see nothing, her invisibility ensured that.

Reaching the holding room, Scarlett paused. The two naked guards stood at attention outside the door. The sound of muffled cries and screams leaked through the heavy metal door, fueling her urgency. Without unlocking the door, though she knew the password, Scarlett passed through it, her invisibility allowing her to phase inside undetected.

The scene that greeted her froze her blood. Four burly men stood in front of Maya, forcing themselves on her. Their twisted smiles and cruel laughter filled the room as they took turns shoving themselves into her mouth.

Garvin, Ethan, and Larry shouted, their voices hoarse with desperation.

"Leave her alone!" Garvin bellowed, his chains rattling as he struggled against them. "You monsters, stop it!"

But their cries fell on deaf ears. The men continued their vile actions, reveling in the powerlessness of their victims.

Scarlett’s eyes burned with fury, her heart pounding with rage. Without hesitation, she summoned her fire element, forming a blazing blade in her hand. She moved swiftly, closing the distance between herself and the assailants.

Still invisible, Scarlett raised her blade and slashed downward, severing their erect penises in one swift motion. The men screamed in agony, stumbling back and clutching their mutilated groins as blood poured from their wounds.

The commotion drew the attention of the guards outside. They burst into the room, weapons drawn, but Scarlett was ready. Still invisible, she lunged at them, her blade flashing as she slit their throats in quick succession. Blood sprayed the walls as the guards collapsed, their bodies hitting the ground with dull thuds.

Scarlett exhaled sharply, her body tense but focused. She turned her attention to Maya, who was trembling uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face. Garvin, Ethan, and Larry looked on in stunned silence, their faces pale with fear and confusion.

Still cloaked in invisibility, Scarlett moved to Maya, freeing her from the chains that bound her. As soon as Maya was free, Scarlett embraced her tightly, letting her invisibility drop.

"It’s okay, Maya. I’m here. You’re safe now," Scarlett whispered, her voice gentle but firm.

Maya clung to Scarlett, her body shaking as sobs wracked her frame. She pulled back slightly, her tear-filled eyes searching Scarlett’s face. "You’re here," she stammered, her voice barely audible. "You’re really alive."

Scarlett forced a small smile, though her eyes betrayed the storm raging within her. "Don’t thank me yet, Maya. We’re not out of this hellhole yet."

She turned to Garvin, Ethan, and Larry, quickly freeing them from their chains. They were battered and bruised, but they appeared to be in decent shape.

"The cameras," Larry muttered, his gaze darting to the shattered remains on the walls.

"I’ve already dealt with them," Scarlett replied. "Let’s move. We need to get out of here before anyone realizes what’s happened."

Summoning her invisibility once more, Scarlett enveloped them all in the spell. Garvin, Ethan, Larry, and Maya clung to her as they vanished from sight.

Together, the group slipped out of the room and into the shadows, moving swiftly through the labyrinthine corridors of the building.
