Hendrick POV

“Rassie is sick again.

The doctors aren't giving any hope this time.

He had a bad stroke”

Sevas tells me, as I walk out dressed.

“He is a fighter.

He will make it” I speak out confidently

Always confident when it comes to the old man

“Well, it looks like he is just waiting down minutes to see you take over his shoes”

Sevas hands me my phone, as I grab the keys

“I'm already in his shoes.

Since I was a kid.

I'm ruling the empire he has built”

I inform him.

As I take the elevator down to the parking lot

“But it's not official yet.

And to make it official, you got to get married.

Call all the other leaders across the country to show them that you are here to rule”

Sevas states the fact

And he is right.

I know he is

But, I haven't found a wife.

At least not yet

“Ursula wants to know if you need her tonight and wants to ask if you would love a full Brazilian or not”

Leo walks in, his mouth having no filter.

And sevas shakes his head, as he looks away.

Sevas is older than me, late thirties,

Well, I'm twenty-eight now

Whereas Leo, he is still a baby.

Just eighteen.

I remember being his age

Reckless and angry all the time.

But now every word I take, every action of mine comes with a price.

Because I own the Mafia in this country.

I'm the king ,as Rassie calls it.

The Castillo family is a popular name.

We are like the painted knifes.

Everybody fears us.

Even the bravest men, fear us.

Because I'm the leader

We are Sworn by the blood

“I'll see her tomorrow at seven.

And tell her that my preference will be communicated personally”

I start the car, as I look at Sevas

“What's on the schedule?”

I question,

Roaring the engine

Turning my beast on

I always had a thing when it comes to car

I am a man who enjoyed prized possessions.

“Meeting with the east dealers.

And there were some peddling activities in the west side, they took our name to loot the people.

I crossed checked with our team but those guys weren't ours.

So, we need to warn them.

We can't let the fools use the Castillo name”

Sevas informs me.

And I stretch my arms, as I check my gun

Fully loaded as always

“Send my father for the meeting.

He just has to shake hands.

And warn them?

I'm not playing hide-and-seek Sevas.

Take the young ones who have just learned how to use a gun.

They will have fun, playing with real bodies, alive”

A small smirk appears on my lips, as I look at his face go pale.

“Boss, Benjamin was supposed to come meet you yesterday.

But he hasn't.

Our men went looking for him.

And he is missing.

He owes you half a million”

Leo informs, chirping the finance stuff.

“He as crossed the due.

Officially thirty-one days ago.

Three warnings has been sent”

He adds, stating the rules we follow when it comes to repayment.

“Half a million for that bastard was too much.

We knew he would never pay us back.

So tell me, what did we mortgage?”

I ask him.

Curious

“Anything.

He begged us to help him , saying if he fails to pay back we can take anything which belongs to him as a repayment to the debt”

Leo smiles.

And I stare at him

“He is the one, with the daughter?

That red haired girl which blue eyes?”

I ask

And he nods, Knowingly.

“How old is she?”

Sevas chirps in, like he can see where I am going

“Just turned eighteen two weeks ago” Leo grins

“Come on Leo.

We got to meet my new toy”

I order.

Everything and everyone comes with a price.

And I own them, with great pleasure.

Matilda Vaughn POV

□□□□

I dial the number again…

But it's still switched off.

He didn't even wish me on my birthday

And tonight, it's my prom.

I wanted him to be here to see me complete my school.

“Your dad is not answering the calls again?”

Riya questions

And I shrug

“He must be busy” Hailey pats my shoulder

And I give her a weak smile

“I wonder what job he does.

What if he is in some Secret Service or like in the Mafia?”

Riya looks at me, with a curious tone.

“He is not in the Mafia for one.

I don't even know If that things exists anymore, with government tightening the rules and the cops being more active.

I doubt it

And for two, Secret Service hello?

Have you seen my dad?

He gets scared of a lizard.

So please”

I scoff, as I grab my books from the locker!

“He didn't even wish on my birthday.

I mean, he has never gone this long without returning my calls”

I murmur, as we walk down the school hallway.

“Don't worry.

You know that your father works overseas.

So, I'm confident, he is just busy.

Just leave him a message saying tonight's the prom.

And he might show up.

Like a surprise”

Hailey suggests , being optimistic

And I sigh.

I have left like a dozen voice mails and a hundred of text messages.

And calls?

I can't even count!

“So what are you guys planning to do after prom?”

Riya asks, her voice excited

“You know, get naughty” Hailey winks

And both of them look at me.

“Well, Dylan and I have decided to do it”

My cheeks flush as I say the words

“O.M.G.

Do it in the sense?

Have s*x?

Oh my god Mattie, you will no longer be the sacred one.

You would be de-flowered by your year-long boyfriend”

Riya gasps, faking to shed a tear like a proud mom

And I shrug.

These people tease me too much

“Are We still borrowing the dress from your mom?”

I ask Hailey

And she nods

“I need to go to my boxing class too.

But I'm not sure if I have time today” I added.

“I don't understand why you and your father are so crazed with punching those bags.

But good thing you can beat the bullies when needed.

Anyway, mom has kept the dresses ready”

Hailey commented.

Since I had turned fifteen my dad had put me in self-defense classes

And over the years, I had become good in that

Now I teach the young kids boxing after my session in leisure time

“Cool.

I need to get back to work.

Dylan said he will book a room for us and that we will see each other directly at the prom.

So, I have to walk to the Café”

I smile, a good feeling inside me.

And riya hugs me, as she bids her goodbye

“I'll walk you halfway.

Come on”

Hailey offers, as she takes my hand!

“Is it going to hurt?”

I ask her.

Out of blue.

I wish my mom would have been alive to talk all this.

But I'm thankful for Hailey who is like a sweet sister to me and her mom is an angel.

They always got my back!

And Riya, is like that annoying sibling.

But we have been friends since middle school!

Well, I met Dylan in the high-school.

We were friends for a year before we started dating in the final year of our high school.

“Well, Toby had no idea what he was doing.

But it felt a little uncomfortable.

That's it.

But you know ,Riya enjoyed it”

Hailey speaks, a little embarrassed of all of it.

“Well Riya enjoy a lot of things”

I comment

And we both burst out into laughter.
