You closed your eyes and lay down on the bed. Minutes passed, but you still couldn't sleep. Deep thoughts and the hospital letter from a while ago began to rummage in your mind.

(A/N: think of this scene as a recap from chapter 1 until here  )

It still felt unbelievable that you're living under the roof of Bonten. You don't know why, maybe because you broke your promise to yourself that you won't and will never be affiliated with one of them, or basically any crimes.

Or worst, you'll turn into one of them.

Now how did everything really started in the first place?

It started because you're kidnapped by some unfamiliar men that are so-called Bonten. You were just a regular living person who's living with her stepmother, scrapping off money from a nightclub that is now gone, burned, and all collapsed, which is the day where Bonten kidnapped you.

Then mysteriously, your stepmother got hospitalized for unknown, yet many possible reasons.

But is that all where it really started?

Who knows? Maybe it's because the past is forbidden knowledge.

Honestly, living with men that are unfamiliar in the first place yet somehow familiar while the credibility is low, the unwillingness of signing a contract that who knows can change your life drastically, the forcing of succumbing to their will from their abhorrent threatening is sometimes sad and draining to think of.

Yeah, you had sanity and dignity before, but it's doubtful now when Bonten came into your life.

Yes, living in a luxurious place, living in a place where everything is free is nice, and come to think of it, you're even skipping every office day, yet your so-called 'bosses' weren't even complaining. Living in a place with men who treat you like you're in a relationship with them, even engaging in their sex life, fulfilling their sexual desires, yet any of the Bonten men weren't in an official relationship with you, and you're not even sure if any of them has pure feelings for you, or they're just playing these playful acts as a façade for their real intentions.

After all, they're Bonten, a group of men who are capable of everything.

Then there, you were finally able to sleep, slowly drifting off as the thoughts were all in shambles in your brain.

Until you heard a noise and your eyes shot open.

I tried to sleep again, pretending not to hear anything.

But it keeps on repeating and repeating; louder and louder, and you were starting to fear for your life.

"Fucking--" You groaned.

In frustration, you forced yourself to stand up from your bed and walked to your door, slowly twisting the doorknob and peeking outside the room, where you saw the long hallway.

You went out of your room and walked down the hallway, meeting with the familiar vast interior of the mansion, but you were hearing noises from the basement, again, like before.

Bang

Sanzu shoots the wall near the two people sitting on the floor, and the bullet penetrated the wall behind them.

Rindou kicks the other man's face and blood sipped out of his nose.

"Out of all the people," Sanzu kicks the man in the face, "and you."

Sometimes, hitting two birds with one stone isn't effective.

"Son of a bitch." Koko gritted his teeth, holding himself back to grab the gun beside him.

Ran and Kakucho are standing in the corner of the room. They're quiet and composed, but it doesn't mean they're not mad as well.

"Takeomi." Sanzu said in a cracked pained voice.

"My own fucking brother. I'm fucking sick." Sanzu's face is contorted into disgust and disbelief.

Takeomi looked up with his bruised eyes to his brother, biting the inside of his cheeks as he kept quiet, not uttering a single word.

"And you?" Sanzu said who kicked the other man beside Takeomi, also a traitor.

"Masked son of a bitch."

Kakucho rolled his eyes as he poked the inside of his cheeks while gripping the gun in his left hand, his thumb repeatedly locking and unlocking the lock of the gun that made clicking noises while Ran was picking some batons, guns, hammers, nails, and more torture weapons.

"Should we finish 'em?" Sanzu looked behind him to call Mikey, but he was not in the room. Also, Sanzu doesn't care anymore, even if he's a family of his. He had to force himself to believe by taking forbidden pills. It's the same routine for Sanzu. It's for him to cope.

"Where is he—?"

"Here," Mikey said as he entered the room, but holding someone, almost like dragging the person.

"Y/n was too curious, but don't worry, she got what she wants to see now." Mikey said with a sarcasm laced in his voice while gripping your wrist tight and pushing you lightly into the basement. The other men's eyes widen when they saw you.

"Told you, curiosity kills the cat." He added.

"Oh?" Sanzu raised his brow and chuckled.

You glared at Mikey and tried to pry your hand away, but his grip was too tight and you know it'll leave a bruise.

Mikey only groaned and sat on one of the chairs, and he pulled you to make you sit on his lap, your back facing him while you were facing the men, and the two familiar people kneeling on the floor, all badly beaten up.

"M-Mikey, I didn't know--" You try to retort as you also try to wriggle out of his lap, but he only grabbed your wrist and locked you closer to his body, yet it was embarrassing for them to watch you sitting on their boss's lap.

Now that Y/n is watching, it riles them up more to slowly torture the two.

"Don't fucking move or you'll be one of them." Mikey whispered sternly in your ear in response and grabbed your jaw to make you face the two, and as your vision clears, your eyes widen in disbelief.

"She's going to watch, like a fucking audience. Eyes on me, baby." Sanzu said then walked to Takeomi and punches him in the face which ripped the wound on his lips more.

"Now, wouldn't you want to miss this?" Ran added as he hits Mask in the head with his baton.

"M-Mas—!" But you were cut off as Mikey covered your mouth.

"Shh shh, just watch and be quiet." Mikey chuckled as he pulls your body tighter and closer on his lap.

Kakucho walked to Takeomi and hits his face with the tip of the gun, and the man grunted in response. The other men also joined in beating up the two traitors, mercilessly beating them up with their weapons, kicking, punching, and hitting them.

"Who sent you the location?" Mikey asked.

"Only me." Takeomi answered while gritting his teeth.

"Stop lying now, will you? We saw the IP address and resource."

"If you saw it, then why bother fucking asking me--?" Takeomi responded, but was cut off.

"Who fucking sent it?" Mikey asked once more, this time, a more rough tone.

"I can't— argh! I can't answer if these motherfuckers keep on beating the shit out of me!" Takeomi grunted as he spits on them.

"Enjoy later. I need to ask him some questions," Mikey commanded while they replied in response.

Takeomi almost gasped as a round, moving blade inched his face closer, like a chainsaw.

"I'll split your brain in half, or you'll spit the answer?" Sanzu spoke behind him.

Takeomi sighed deeply and looked at Mask before answering. He can't risk dying. Definitely not.

"Hanma Shuji."

"Who else?" Mikey said as the running blade inched closer at Takeomi's head.

"Mitsuya Takashi."

"And?"

"Chifuyu Matsuno."

Sanzu just snorted, then shook his head. "Meeting my ass."

Mikey then looked at Mask.

"And you?"

Mask kept quiet, he didn't speak the whole time.

"I'll handle you later. Leave him to me." Mikey said, clearly interested in Mask's motive.

You shouted in a muffled voice because of Mikey's hand covering you, and you pry and wriggle on his lap in an attempt to escape, but he only grabbed your wrist and waist tighter then leaned into your ear.

"Move more, and you know what will happen." Mikey groaned, and your eyes widened and a blush crept in your face as you knew what he meant, especially the hard thing that was poking under you in his pockets.

And there, that alone made you quiet and sit still.

"Good girl." He whispered.

"So, back to the topic, why did they send you the location?" Mikey then faced the men.

"Isn't it obvious dark circle-eyed bitch? It's because of Brahman." Takeomi rolled his eyes.

"Watch it, old man." Mikey clicked the lock of the gun. "Because I wouldn't think you're a traitor, especially with that wrinkly old brain of yours from B.C.E."

"K." Takeomi said who raises his hands in defense while the others laughed.

"Answer me properly." Mikey retorted.

"Alright," Takeomi mutters, and Mask looks at him in disbelief, shaking his head.

"We can't risk dying in this hellhole. If I'll die, at least not fucking here." Takeomi whispered.

"Hurry the fuck up." Sanzu mutters.

"Fine, if that's what you want," Takeomi said. "Hanma volunteered and offered Senju to be her right-hand man after Kisaki died."

"It took months before Senju finally agreed, then there, they're now working together. Remember the meeting we had with Hanma, Chifuyu, and Mitsuya? It was arranged by Senju anonymously." 

"Hanma collected information from the meeting, especially the location."

"Long time no see, Bonten." A man with blonde yellow hair strikes and glasses said while he puffed a smoke, placing the cigarette between his fingers.

"Likewise, Hanma Shuji."

The four men sat in the chairs while the servants filled each glass with wine.

"Welcome to Roppongi," Ran remarked as he sat back in his chair, watching the four men intently.

The tension grew in the room as the four men sat in each chair.

"It's been a long time, how are you?" Hanma said in a playful tone as he picked one of the cards on the table as if he owned it.

"We're good." Mikey replied.

"...Which is the reason why they knew our location, and also where Y/n is staying, which is the penthouse in Roppongi..." 

"Hanma." Senju called Hanma, they were in Brahman's base.

"At their last day in Roppongi, we'll land a surprise attack or an ambush to Bonten, I heard Mikey and Y/n are the only ones in the penthouse, but I need you to get the location first."

"I'm sure one of the Bonten men will call their boss Mikey and he will leave Y/n at the penthouse."

"So if you got the location, send it to Takeomi immediately."

"Okay, boss." Hanma replied then starts calling Chifuyu and Mitsuya to track the locations.

"...They expected that Mikey will leave Y/n alone in the penthouse because of the surprise attack that Brahman did to Ran and the others which made Ran call Mikey for backups, and they would take that chance to take Y/n..."

It was now in the middle of the night.

Until he heard his phone ring.

Ring! Ring!

Mikey sighed as he grabbed his phone, and Ran was calling.

"Boss! Fuck-!" Gunshots "We need back- " Ran's voice was cut off and jittery, Mikey heard gunshots and people shouting from the other line.

"We need backup! Someone has ambushed us!" Ran groaned through the phone.

Mikey widened his eyes in anticipation, and his heart skipped a beat.

"Someone is a fucking traitor!"

"But no, they were wrong, Mikey didn't leave Y/n alone in the penthouse so they didn't get the chance." 

"Someone is a fucking traitor!"

His breath hitched and immediately stood up from his bed and grabbed enough weapons from his duffle bag, and a suitcase that was like a vault which was gun proof, and quickly dressed up as he flee outside the room.

"Ran, send me the location ASAP." Mikey said as he ended the call.

But then he paused in his tracks as he looked back at your room, he was stuck between bringing you with him or leaving you all alone here.

If he will bring Y/n with him, she will foremost see what the depths of Bonten's doings, she will see scenery which Mikey knew she doesn't want to see, and there's a high chance she'll get involved.

On the other hand, if he left you, a suspicion was contemplating him, especially what Ran said, someone ambushed them, and someone is a traitor, meaning it's not just any random criminals, he was fond of these mind games, he was a smart man, and all he needs to hear were those two words for him to analyze that someone knows Y/n's location.

"...The surprise attack was all planned by Brahman, and... their leader Senju..." Takeomi admitted. "Also, I've been working with Brahman ever since Y/n lived with us, it was all planned." 

Anonymous' POV

Instead.

Takeomi's POV

"I went back to Brahman." Takeomi said in a cracked voice, holding back his tears as he grits his teeth while telling the whole story.

"I want to see my sister again and apologize, then forget everything about Bonten..."

"I'm tired of pretending that I like being in Bonten for years, pretending to be a devoted member, when in fact, I still want to be in Brahman." Takeomi added in a pained voice, all painfully and bitterly true.

Silence fell in the room.

The other men shook their heads, especially Sanzu whose heart is aching, and felt his heart crack, disbelief, disgust, jealousy, and betrayal plastered all over his face. 

"It's better off without the two of you. I was wrong trusting you again, fucker!" Sanzu shouted, Ran and the others had to hold back Sanzu from grabbing his gun and killing Takeomi. 

"Shameless son of a bitch." Mikey said who've had enough then shoots Takeomi in the leg.

"AAARGH!" Takeomi shrieked in response as he gripped his legs with pools of blood starting to ooze out. 

Your eyes widen as tears brim in your eyes, and you hold them back, trying to stop the flinches as they continue the brutal beating of the two traitors. The story, the information, the mysterious letter from your father, and your stepmother's condition were all mixing up in your head.

"Keep on watching, Y/n!" Sanzu shouted wickedly as they continue to beat up Takeomi and Mask, no, he doesn't care anymore and there's no hesitation anymore if he kills Takeomi.

Mikey's tight grip on your body wasn't helping, and you shook your head as tears escaped your eyes and your heart began to race. Air was leaving your lungs from your muffled screams on Mikey's hand covering your mouth, and it felt all too suffocating.

After almost what felt like an hour of brutally beating up, Takeomi and Mask collapsed on the floor.

Uncontrollable hiccups, sobs, tears, and muffled screams emitted from you, and it felt utterly horrifying, you gritted your teeth as Mikey then spoke from behind, making you flinch on his lap.

"Don't end them... yet." Mikey said, making his voice loud so everyone can hear, especially the two half-conscious on the floor and Y/n.

"Lock them up for now." Mikey added.

Bonten workers entered the basement and carried the two bodies out of the room, and they left with a cold and bitter atmosphere, and all that was left is you and the other Bonten members.

Your eyes were widened as you were frozen yet trembling slightly on Mikey's lap, avoiding their heavy gazes on you.

"Like what you saw?" Koko asked you which you impulsively raise your head.

Sanzu who was surprisingly quiet is just sitting beside Koko and staring at the floor.

You noticed Ran, Rindou, and Kakucho standing near the door, their bodies leaning on the wall, while Ran was leaning against the doorframe, his palm resting on top, all so quietly.

Mikey pulled your chin from behind and forced you to face him; he has a stoic expression on his face, his eyes don't look for sympathy, and he doesn't seem to regret what he just made you watch; and, to top it off, it's all icy cold, especially when you're staring at him with your glossy, tear-filled eyes.

"See? Now you know what happens to traitors." 

A/N: yes, takeomi and mask are both the traitors in bonten, and takeomi is the anonymous pov :)

SOME SMALL CLUES/HINTS FROM PREV CHAPTS ON HOW OMI AND MASK R THE TRAITORS AND OMI IS ANON POV
⬇️⬇️

from chapter 30. ok ever wondered why takeomi puts his phone back in his pockets then coincidentally wakasa and senju attacked immediately after that? possible that takeomi messaged senju and wakasa for the go signal. and notice how they didn't attack takeomi.

from chapter 31. takeomi stops sanzu from killing senju (one of the obvious hints). but then takeomi pretended to fight senju and uses the reason to "find some useful opponents" when actually takeomi kept senju safe and notice how takeomi and senju didn't have a fight scene after that?

from chapt 30. notice how mask kept saying stay safe to y/n everytime? even in the recent previous chapters? 

from chapt 30. "mask" it's pretty obvi 

from chapt 15 (where the anonymous pov is introduced)

from chapt 15

(comment if i missed something)

i was rereading some theories and guesses in these comments and CONGRATS FOR THOSE WHO GOT IT RIGHT >:Dd

also, notice how takeomi is quiet or doesn't have much screen time the whole time in this fanfic?

anyway, since "anonymous pov" and the traitors r revealed which is takeomi and mask, who is behind mask?? accepting more theories btw ♡
