chapter twenty-four.
▂
Hopping out of his all-white luxurious car, Sin storms through the crowds of people standing around inside the warehouse. It was noisy, but the noise dialed down when they noticed him, Martin, and Xavier. Sin didn't care if he was earning odd gazes left and right; all he wanted was answers from Felix; why did he just let Missy go like that?
As he makes his way further into the warehouse, he could see Felix and Kevin standing at the bottom of the steps discussing quietly amongst each other, about something. That something is what Sinclair wants to know about. Him approaching them caused their conversation to stop, and so did Sinclair.
Sinclair halts his footsteps, anger covering his face as the crowd gathers around him, he knew this would happen, but he wasn't nervous at all. He did cause a lot of attention when he arrived barging in, but he could care less about that. Sin glances around before burning his gaze into Felix's face.
"You gave her up to Trunk!" Sin shouts not sugar coating anything. "What happened to you saying you'll keep her here with you?!"
Sin didn't know why he was so upset over this. He barely held a full conversation with the girl, yet he's so sensitive about her whereabouts. He flirted with her a couple of times, and managed to kiss her once, but now the man can't seem to let the small and brief moments go. They run around his head constantly, making it harder for him to think sometimes. Now, with everything that's going on, Missy's safety is the only thing on his mind. Not the mafia, not the money, not even the words he wanted to say to Felix were there.
Kevin looks at Sin as he halts his steps, the tall male steps up creating a wall between him and Felix. It was as if he was warning him to stay back, but unlike Felix, Sinclair wasn't looking for a fight, he wanted answers.
"Stay out of it, Kevin! This is between me and him!"
"Now you want to show up?" The tall male counters, stepping to Sinclair's face. "Go back to your little party, Sin. We don't have anyone else on our side in this syndicate, besides ourselves!"
Xavier and Martin step up instantly, preparing to defend him if Kevin tried anything. A kick. A punch. Anything. They were ready to shut it down. It annoys him more seeing Felix sit there, not saying a word, not even deescalating the situation. Typical of him. Sin holds his hands up, stopping Martin and Xavier from doing anything irrational when Mina stands next to Kevin.
The girl that shares a similar face to Felix taps Kevin's shoulder, getting the tall man's attention. It seems like she was the only one with a level head, when she pulls at Kevin's arms.
"Let's not do this here, Felix please take this to your room," Mina asks, causing Sin to look in the direction of the long-haired man who stays still in his spot, not even sparing Sinclair a glance. "Felix? Please."
