"She won't stop calling me." Obasi expressed to his sister Ime as the two of them stood in the sunroom of the main house. He didn't know what to do at this point. All he knew was that he wanted to get him and his family out of dodge from the crazy woman that wanted war with the Köhlers. For what he didn't know, but they were his family, and Obasi couldn't let any harm come to them. The mistress needed to be stopped, and if he couldn't do it, sure enough, his brother's family could.

"Talk to Luca and Chance. They will know what to do. I don't think his son trusts us just yet, but this could be our way to gain it, Obasi. They need to know that we are not a threat to them, but you're hiding shit. Things that will get you killed. Go to our brothers. Tell them."

"Tell them what?" Xerxes spoke from the doorway with a raised brow. Both jumped at the sound of his voice echoing throughout the room. "Last I check, I was their Don. Anything you have to say needs to be to me. Not my father or my uncle, and gives no fucks what they are you until I can trust you. You report to me... understood."

"I know this...."

"Mistress keeps calling him Don. He hadn't answered the phone, but we know what she is doing. She's upset. We left without a word and took her prize. I know she was planning on killing your brother, and we couldn't allow that. Elijah is our nephew... you are our nephew. I'm speaking for both of us when I say this. We will do whatever is needed to protect you and whoever else in this family. Our father... grandfather, may have been out of his mind before he died, but it was the one thing he told us to do. Protect our family. Our real family, but we didn't understand it until Emmanuel started this war. It has nothing to do with our color. It's your mafia the Nigerians want. It has always been the want for your mafia that started the war."

Ime and Obasi waited for Xerxes to speak as he stood there, which they believed in thought, but the silence was killing them. They needed him to say something. At least say that he understood and start speaking of a plan they could do. Instead, he stood there studying them silently for about five minutes before doing anything.

"Give me your phones." He spoke as he held out his hand. Neither of them wasted any time handing over their phones and telling him the passwords as he searched through them. A few moments later, Xerxes handed Ime back her phone while calling back the last number that called Obasi in his.

"I don't know who you are, but when I find out, you're going to wish that your death came a long time ago. I want you to know your death won't be quick and easy. I plan to start at your nails, pulling each of them off and burning off your fucking flesh piece by piece. Then cut off your limps, starting at your feet, making sure you feel each time the saw move against you. You're fucking with the wrong people, and we will not stop until you and all of your followers are dead bitch."

They could hear the woman breathing from the other end and by the sounds of her heavy breath. She was afraid. Still, she didn't say a word, only listened, as she quickly hung up once Xerxes was finished speaking.

"You're on the inside, and she knew. I wanted her to know that was why I didn't take your phones. Now that is done, take them to the tech building and get rid of them. Vince will supply you with new phones... and talk to your siblings. All of them."

"Y-yes, sir."
