Inside a dark underground the room was dreadful and littered with different rusted tools and the air around it felt erie that could make you tremble in fear.
"Did you know why you are dying, Nicholas," a lady cladded in all-black attire asked the man covered in bruises groaning on the floor.
The lady was oblivion to whatever was happening around her while she dawned herself in her monologue.
"I love the way you scream though," the lady says sliding a knife on the man's skin blood started oozing out of it and the man yelped in pain while she laughed maniacally.
It looks like the man's pain was bringing pleasure to the woman because her expression was blissful not portraying an expression of someone inflicting pain on anyone.
The only thought on the man's mind was psychopath, the lady was a fucking psychopath at the same time because there is no way she could stand something so horrid.
"Beg Nicholas, I want to hear you beg me, "the lady said lowering to his level and raising his chin and the man finally got a full view of the woman that had been tormenting him.
He looked into the haunting hazel eyes that makes him swallow a gallon of saliva getting drawn making him forget that he was in pain.
Her chestnut hair tied in a ponytail shooting out of her cap, her pleasing bloodshot lips that fitted the theme of her exercise, and lastly her delicate features that will get you stuck no matter what.
If she wasn't in front of him as an assassin then he won't mind taking her to his bed and exploring every crook of her body.
"Checking me out Nicholas?" she asked with a sinister smirk and that sends a shiver to the bruised man who shakes his head vigorously but the lady wasn't having it.
"Looks like I haven't passed the message yet," she says and as she started her series of assaults and the man's shriek of pain rang through the isolated basement and after some time the basement returns to a deafening silence.
"What a hassle," the lady says looking at the man that had grown cold on the floor and she hissed in disgust.
"But you are a coward you don't even put up much fight," the lady says looking at the floor that was already painted with the man's blood but she shakes her head.
"Adieu Nicholas," the says her final goodbye and she turned around walking away from the dreadful place in brisk steps.....
"Cut!!" a voice was heard and the dark basement was filled with light making the room bright.
And the dead man on the ground groaned and stood up dusting his body but he looked around him and it looked like the people were in trance.
"Sandra that was a top-notched performance and Jason you are also admirable," a man in his 40s complimented the two but the lady referred to as Sandra decided to say something.
"You are really good Jason," Sandra complimented the other guy as a courtesy and the guy's face was red as a tomato when he got complimented by his senior.
They were currently on the set of Dirty Assassin and they just finished shooting one of the scenes and she still had more.
The lady clothed in black attire and stained with the set prob blood felt disgusted and when she looked around for her manager she was nowhere to be seen.
A lot of people gave side glances some in admiration and some in envy but she was already used to it as an A-lister having people envy was normal.
Acting was the only thing that had been giving her existence meaning so, if acting good was the only thing that could make her happy then she don't see a reason not to make enemies.
"So Sandra all you have to do is wait and let us shoot another scene before we get back to your scene, "The director says but that ticked something in Sandra's.
"I have to wait for you to shoot another scene in this dress when you can just wrap all my scenes and get it over with," Sandra complained with a sign of irritation, and the director swallowed a gallon of saliva.
Sandra's words put the director in a tight spot because as an A-lister he couldn't offend her but he can't also offend her too.
"Don't you think you are being smug you just had to wait for a few minutes to resume your scenes," Sandra hear a mocking voice behind her and she turned to look at the person that was so brazen to talk to her like that.
The lady that just finished talking was Priya and she was one of the actresses in town but not as popular as Sandra and she also has her share of beauty.
After Sandra seized the woman whose aura was screaming pretense, Sandra removed her eyes from her like she was a plague but her reaction irritated the woman.
"Director Cal if you are cutting off my scenes now because of someone that just got to the set then I think that was the most disrespectful thing to do," Sandra says with her tone getting cold and the crew witnessing the scene were all tensed.
It was no news that the two women hate themselves and they like to prove their supremacy and it looks like the director is going to get burnt by the decision.
The director looked at the two women and tried to scale his situation even though Sandra was an A-lister and shouldn't be offended but the person backing Priya can't be ridiculed because of his influence.
"Sandra I think you would have to wait a bit and we will quickly shoot Priya scenes," the director says after weighing his options but that was the mistake he made.
"What a joke," Sandra snickered and the director avoided her eyes immediately.
She felt her breath uneven because of so much anger and she tries to steady her breath by sucking in some air.
Priya looked pleased by the turn of events and the look on her face says it all.
Sandra decided to walk out of the basement to get some fresh air because she might kill someone if she stays longer.
"What's the point of being an A-lister when you can't win the director's favor," Priya's assistant says throwing shade at Sandra and that halted her steps.
Sandra took heavy steps towards them and the crazy glint in her eyes makes the girl shifts back in fear but Sandra has no business with her.
"I don't know how strong your backer is but I would advise you to keep sucking on that dick instead of messing with me," Sandra says in a cold voice, and the people around her gasped in shock at the obvious truth.
"You!!!"Priya yelled livid with anger but Sandra's expression was different, she felt blissful that was able to get under her skin.
"And instead going about of getting an assistant I think an acting coach is better because your last movie was a flop and I almost puked while watching it, "Priya paled with anger but Sandra doesn't care she was too angry to care.
She had worked her ass up for years so, she would be able to have a footing in the industry but is this what she was going to get.
She decided to stroll out of the building because she needed fresh air away from the suffocating stares of the crew members.
"Pang," the loud sound of a gunshot was heard and that made everyone around suck in their breath and Sandra halted her steps.
