The Hill family and Delano family have been rivals for generations. One generation decided they had enough of the fighting and bloodshed and signed a peace treaty. In this treaty, they are to be cordial and not attack the other group.

Rhys pov:
I grabbed the final gift bag. I had like five wrapped gifts in the back of my car. It was Kaisen's birthday and after staying up damn near all night trying to learn how to wrap gifts, I finally got it down.
When I opened my front door I saw my father standing there. I sighed. "I can't talk now... I'm busy."
"Too busy for the mafia?" He looked at the birthday bag in my hand in disgust. "You're attending birthday parties instead of doing your responsibilities as a mob boss?"
"This is important to me."
"The mafia should be important to you."
"It is, but not everything is about the mafia."
"It is. The mafia is your life you were born to lead them." He sighed. "Your mother died so you could take over the family business and now it's like I don't even know who you are."
"You never knew me to begin with!" I yelled. "Go ahead, tell me how I killed my mother. Remind me every time I don't do something you want me to do. Take me to her grave every year for my birthday so I can sit there and listen to you talk about how I'm a disgrace and how I should never have been born. How I should've been the perfect Don, but instead I'm a freak who killed my mother. I've heard it all before Sylvester. Save it." I said before slamming the door.
I was now chest to chest with him. If I have to, I'd kill him right here right now.
"You are a freak who killed your mother." He seethed. "You have responsibilities. Stop going to childish birthday parties for people who don't even like you. No one actually likes you. They lie to you because of your last name. You're honestly a disgrace to the Delano family."
"If I'm such a huge disgrace then cut me off." His jaw tightened. "Cut me off Sylvester. You won't because you're one of the few people that need me. You need me to run this mafia so I will do it my way. I don't need your two cents or stupid ideas."
"Half your men died because a shipment was robbed last night. Want to hear my stupid idea?"
"If I wanted to hear your stupid idea I would've asked. From now on you don't speak unless spoken to."
"Who do you think you are?"
"I'm Rhys Delano, leader of the Delano family. You're not the leader anymore so stop acting like it. As soon as we do this ceremony I'll officially be the boss and I'm going to do this my way. If you don't like it please tell me now so I can go ahead and make funeral arrangements."
"You're going to regret this." He seethed.
"Try me." I held eye contact for a few seconds before walking away. I got in the car Kaisen bought me for my birthday. I glared at Sylvester as he got in his car and drove off. I really do want to kill him.
