"Should be since I'm the boss am I not?" Dante said curtly with a challenging gaze that switch from Lance to Lewis.

"Fuck you got me there" Lance laughed as he put both his hands up he looked at Lewis and said "well you heard the boy"

"This may sound rude but could you tell me your names? I don't think I've had the pleasure of an introduction" Lewis asked cautiously.

Dante looked at Lance in which he nodded back as if understanding the unspoken question. "You can call me Lance" he said pointing at himself and then gesturing to his side he said "and this is Dante"

"Dante and Martello those sound familiar hmmm..." Lewis thought as he contemplated the idea that was forming in his mind.

"Why is a five year old visiting an establishment like this?" Lewis asked as he looked at Lance with unease.

"That is because this five year old is taking over this place. Let's go I won't tell mother" Dante said with a grin underneath his mask.

Lewis Face paled as he thought about Julia Martello when he went to Dante's 2nd birthday party as the manager of Hells paradise he heard a rumor. It was said that if you messed with Ferdinand's children you had better meet Ferdinand instead of Julia at least with Ferdinand you would meet a quick end. Lewis tried to stop himself from shaking as he failed to not to think of the legends of the Demoness of the underworld who turned the city's name to hell forge during her reign. "I'm so fucked if she finds out " Lewis thought cursing the little imp in front of him he muttered in a hushed tone "can we keep this between us because my life and sanity are at risk here"

"Of course this is between friends and my ass is in risk of a beating that will make even the devil wince in sympathy" Dante laughed he turned to Lance "what did you just hear?"

Lance took the hint with a look of understanding he said "hear what?"

"Ok let's go" Dante nodded as he walked out of the room.

Lewis gave an embarrassed smile "that is why I don't work in my office at night"

"I'm guessing by your face this is where the special dancers relive clients stress and desires?" Dante laughed "my virgin sense is tingling" Dante thought with a devilish smile.

Lewis coughed and pushed up his glasses "you are correct we shall now be going to the dance hall and bar" he said as he sped up his foot steps with Dante's chuckles echoing behind him.

Dante walked down the stairs as he reached the bottom of the spiraled stair case he opened up the door he was greeted by a sight that seemed taken from a fairy tale. The tables were neatly placed in a diamond pattern. Four round tables at each diamond point with some space in between and this was carried out through out the room making a beautiful scene of white cloth covered tables. To Dante's left there was a stage where he guessed the dancers used for their performances as he walked into the room the crystal chandeliers glimmered lighting up the large room. He looked to his right and there was a looked like a classical bar the smooth vanished wooden counter with the bottles of liquor glistening behind it. "Quite a grand looking place" Dante exclaimed.

"Yes it's one of the things we are most proud of. No matter how many times you visit it still looks amazing " Lewis sighed as he walked in between the tables to a door beside the bar with a pair of dice on it he opened up the door the walls drastically changed from a smooth wooden wall to a rough ancient stone wall that led to a spiral stair case. Lewis led the group down the shadowy stairs to a dimly lit roomed which hand a bunch of tables scattered around with different games from roulette to black jack "we were suppose to have renovated this place but we never got around to it." Lewis explained as Dante looked at the bumpy stone walls and cracked flagstones.

"I see so as I'm guessing I have seen all the things that I should where is the money kept?" Dante asked.

"It's hidden underneath the bar in a safe" Lewis replied.

"I see I may need to use this place to take my gains from other places can I do that here?" Dante questioned Lewis.

"Yes we have had dealings of a similar kind before" Lewis smiled as he understood Dante's question.

"Alright I'll have Lance to take a look at security and I'll give proper background checks to all the other employees later" Dante said as the group headed back up the stairs.

They reached the reception Dante turned and looked at Lewis in his black suit and tie with a crisp white shirt. "It was a pleasure meeting you and I hope we can work together In the future" Dante said as he walked out of the building.

"You to" Lewis said as he watched Dante walk out "I need a fucking drink" he muttered as he wiped his forehead of sweat.

"Dante want to go look around the shops?" Lance asked.

"Need something Lance?" Dante replied with an interested gaze.

"Yeah boss wanted me to pick something up" Lance said as he got into the car.

"Sure might as well" Dante said as he climbed in front putting on his seatbelt he stared out of the window as the car cruised down the streets after some time he noticed something in the mirrors a sky blue car kept following them at first it didn't seem suspicious. It's just going the same way is what Dante reasoned but it turned off and minutes later the same car showed up like a bloodhound looking for its prey.

"Lance I think we are being followed" Dante said in a mix of fear and excitement.
