The Mafia Boss has a dirty little secret. BxB

23- with your boy toy.

Fate did not have it. 

It's one thing for you to get tired of your fears. To get so tired of them that it gets to the point where you don't let it control you anymore. It's another thing for you to be suddenly reminded why that fear was there in the first place.

It was almost by instinct. When my eyes met my fathers cold ones, I admittedly let go of Tae's hand. My face hardened for the person in front of me made all reason to be happy disappear. 

At that moment Tae's feelings were the least of my concern. Not when my father had noticed me pulling my hand away from his. If i really wanted to protect Tae i would pretend. A person with familiar blonde hair stood in front of my father and he seemed to be talking.

But he noticed that my fathers eyes were on something else. The stranger turned around and I mentally groaned. I should've known from the mess of hair alone that it was the bastard.

Saron. My father's bastard child. His mom wasn't the only one my father had cheated with. Saron wasn't even his first bastard child, either. But he was without a doubt my dad's strongest and smartest child. Which made him a threat to me in so many different ways.
  
I intentionally sighed letting them know there presence alone annoyed me. 

" Hello, father." All the softness in my voice had disappeared causing Liam to look at me surprised. But he stayed quiet, eerily quiet. Because he knew my sudden change in tone meant no good and that now I'd easily be angered by him.

" Ace, I didn't take you as the type to have a boy toy!" Saron mocked causing my eyes to flicker. My dad raised one eyebrow at Saron's sudden accusation.

Saron would take any chance he got to turn me into a outcast.  If he thought i would let him he was gravely mistaken.

" And I see your still as delusional as ever. I was just leading Liam's  Nanny out of the car, because he was being too slow by my standards. " I replied with my poker face. I didn't even have to think about my response before I opened my mouth. I had gotten good at coming up with excuses, perks of living with someone who was constantly trying to turn you an outcast.

" If he is too slow for your standards, then why the fuck is he Liam's nanny ? " Saron asked. The two of us stared each other down, until my father interrupted.

" SHUT THE FUCK UP, both of you! I did not come here to deal with this childish behavior. We have matters to discuss." My father yelled, causing the both of us look at him. He started walking towards the gates of my mansion and we knew to follow him.

I let go of Liam's hand and followed them. Tae was Liam's manny, he could take care of him. But there was a bugging feeling in my heart as his scent had become a depressing scent. I looked over my shoulder for a quick glance.

   Liam looked at me with a familiar face. The one he started to make after his mother died.  Tae had no expression on his face from what I could tell. But the way he clenched the hand that I had held into a fist said it all.

My head was pounding. " So let me get this straight." I said as I stood up and leaned against my desk. " You want us to mess with the strongest Mafia."

Saron practically rolled his eyes. " No, if you'd been listening you'd understand. The Fortin's are taking our deals and stealing our property from under of noses. I'm looking at the bigger picture because at this rate they'll bankrupt us."

" The only bigger picture I'm seeing is that you want us to use our incompetence to secure deals and take care of our property to start war."

" Well, maybe if you hadn't been slacking off with your boy toy. Maybe just maybe we wouldn't so be incompetent." Saron sarcastically stated.

" Stop it with your childish endeavors." My father said as he slammed his cup on tea against the table. The cup shattered and I easily caught a broken piece of glass before it could cut my face.

" You'll be coming over to my mansion to discuss the full plans." My eyebrows furrowed and I frowned. Father noticed and just rolled his eyes.

" Ace, your incompetence is costing us. I refuse to believe you don't see what corner you've backed us into." My father glared at me. There was a pit in my stomach as the familiar feeling of being a disappointment appeared.

" The bottomline is we are going to try and make a pack with the 3rd strongest mafia. Which I estimate will take at least a week. If all works out the two of us can take on the strongest Mafia." I nodded at his words, because at that moment that was nothing else for me to do.

" Your brother was actually the one who came up with this idea. You can learn a thing or two from him if you tried."  I again nodded and straightened my posture, feeling my nails dig in the desk.

I didn't need to look at Saron's face to know he was smirking.

It just struck me that I actually need to have a schedule. So expect updates either on 11: 00 am or 12: 20pm or  3pm or 8 pm.
