Who's my baby's DADDY?

Shipments missing

Shane's POV ~

"Elijah, shipments arrived?", I asked as I walked inside one of our main warehouses as Elijah followed me. "Uh… yes brother...", Elijah unsurely dragged his words and I turned to see him signaling my other men. "What's with the signaling?", I asked and everyone was startled at my words. "Nothing brother… everything is fine", he assured me but something was off with him today. Why am I getting a feeling that he is lying to me? I sharpened my gaze on him and he was clearly trying hard to avoid my look. "Okay, you better tell me what happened, if not you won't be leaving this place without a bullet in you", I roared with my serious voice. Elijah and my other men turn to look at each other's face hesitantly. "Uh, brother… you won't like this. One of our shipments is missing and this is the second time this month", he said, as his eyes dropped to the floor. "WHAT? WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN BY MISSING TWICE? AND YOU GUYS DIDN'T BOTHER TO TELL ME ABOUT IT?", I yelled, on a pissing tone. Everyone around, looked at me with fear in their eyes. "Elijah, what is this?", I asked and he shook his head on either side. "Brother, I was about to inform you after findin…", he started and immediately paused when you gave him a quick death glare. "So did you find the f****** person who did this or not?", I asked and again he dropped his head down. "What the hell is actually going on here? Open your mouth and answer, Elijah", my yelling voice echoed throughout the vast warehouse. "Brother, we tried checking out the surroundings but got nothing. One suspect is in the dungeon but he is not opening his mouth.", He explained. "Stab him, shoot him, burn him, do whatever the hell you can. I want to know who did this within 24 hours. Or don't dare to come in front of me.", I ordered, clenching my teeth tight in fury. Who the f*** has the audacity to touch Bookers shipments? No one from inside our territory is brave enough to do this. This is someone from outside. "Elijah, who do you think it is", I asked him, waving my hands at others to continue with their work. He walked close to me as he let out a deep sigh. "I have no idea. As we know scorpions are dead. Probably a new one", he said. "Did we really finish off all the scorpions or did I miss someone?", I asked "It's for tomorrow. Now, we are already running late for the Gala. Mum will chop us into pieces if we are gonna be late again.", immediately he shook his head and pulled me out with him. Duh! How did I forget about the Gala? Time to meet, baby girl…

Kelsea's POV~

"Kelsea, look at this one, you'll look like Cinderella!!. Oh no, forget about that, just look at this, how dazzling it looks", she admired, as she kept on placing different dresses on me. It's been more than an hour and still she doesn't seem to stop. I yawned, feeling exhausted. "Enough, Skyla. Have you decided?", I asked and she shook her head for a NO. I felt drowsy after trying a lot and a lot of dresses she got me for the Gala. She seems more excited about the Gala than me. If only she knows the difficulty to face both the super hot Booker brothers. "ENOUGH MY DEAR FRIEND! I'LL CHOOSE ONE. JUST FORGIVE ME FOR ASKING YOU TO PICK MY DRESS", I sighed at her and she pouted at me dramatically. Putting the dress on the bed, I grabbed my towel and walked inside the bathroom to get my lazy self a quick shower.

It was 5:30 already. I rushed out of my bathroom after a chill shower with all my amazing scents and oils. Ah! I smell like lavender. I walked inside my dressing room and quickly dried and styled my hair into a high updo. Since this is my first ever Gala or big party whatever they call it, I'm quite nervous. I don't know how these people afford to throw such a large amount of money just on parties and events like this. Richeee!! I sighed as I looked at the dresses that were lying in front of me. Okay, this is indeed tough to pick. Skyla bought me a lot of dresses and I really don't know which one to pick from. I just stood there staring for a few and a purple shade long sleeveless dress with a v-cut neck caught my eyes. I pulled it out from the pile of other dresses. I placed it on me and looked at my reflection in the mirror. Wow, the dazzling stone on the dress shined like a diamond and instantly there was a smile on my lips. Perfect, this is the one.

Shane's POV~

"ARE YOU READY, SHANE?", I hear my mom yell as I just rolled my eyes at her impatient tone. "Coming, maa!", I adjusted my black suit and looked at myself in the mirror. It's gonna be a boring night. I rolled my eyes and I walked out of my room. My mum was standing out and throwing orders at the workers. Why are all the women obsessed with Galas and parties? Forget it, I don't think I'll get an answer anyway. "Ready, maa!", I said with a fake smile which we had to put on before everybody till this event ends. "I just hope everything goes well today. I don't want everything to be messed up before my friends", she said, sighing. "Oh, how did I forget about that? Is your date ready as well?", She asked and my mood instantly freshened up at the thought of Kelsea. Ah, I forgot about her. With her by my side I don't think it's gonna be boring night anymore. "I think so, maa. Just gonna go, pick her up and I'll be there in the Gala sharp at 7", I said and she nodded. When I was about to leave, "Son, wait!", her voice stopped me. "I'm sure you bought her a very beautiful dress, right?", She asked with her sharp eyes pinned on me. Uh.. what? Why is she asking me that? Should I send her a dress or what? I looked at her puzzled. "I never send a dress to Maria for such events, why are you asking me such new things? Do I have to send one to Kelsea?", I asked and her face quickly turned into a serious one. Ok, I know this look… Am I in danger? "DON'T TELL ME YOU DIDN'T SEND HER A DRESS, MR. SHANE BOOKER??", she asked with her fierce tone and I shook my head on either side. "YOU ARE AN i***t, SON!", she squealed and my eyes widened. Me? An i***t? Why all the women around me keeps calling me that??? Fu** myself.
