And so we begin 😏😏
___

My fingers circled around my cup. As some men of my family sat in a room, a break before we start compromising. They all chatted as Sebast'yan sat on the desk beside me. He voice never faulted from its cheerful mood. Honestly it creeped me out sometimes.

" so how's your lily?" He asked I looked up to him and took a drink not wanting to answer his question.

" better than you" I spat

" cmon..even I'm curious to her..I kinda miss her eyes" he smirked. I reached for him but he moved away just in time. He laughed and ruffled up my hair a bit as I let him. " I don't know, so—"

Suddenly the doors opened of the room. A frantic guard skimmed the place before landing eyes on me. The room was silent feeling as though a single breath could be your last. He hesitated for a moment before walking towards me as I lowered my cup to give him my attention. He stood unsure of what to do as I stared at him.

" what is it"

" i-sir, you may want to take this call" he muttered

" about?"

" sir, please" he whispered

My brow rose not expecting him to sound like that. I looked to Sebastian as he nodded him self. Taking the phone and held it up to my ear.

" hello?"

' BOSS!'

Seeing my father look over to me as the room slowly went back to its chatter. ' h-how have you been?' He chuckled

I knew who was on the other side of my line. He's the only one to know what happened with Serina or what my plan is.

" spit it out" I gritted

' fine, don't compromise..they just tried to kidnap her but she was saved just before... she is home. And yes others are around monitoring.' He went quiet for a second

" the whole truth"

' what? I have nothing else—'

" If I find out it will be worse"

Noticing my father coming closer and gestured to put it on speaker. I nodded and did so and stood up to meet his gaze.

' she was silent the whole way...till we got to her apartment. She mentioned to pass a message but it's stupid. She didn't mean it, she was scared'

" say it" my father spoke up

' sir...she kept threatening us once we told her that we would tell you about the event. Then she laughed...and grabbed my hand..sir please don't take her seriously.'

" stop it and tell us before I find you"

My hands rested on the desk as my head slightly dipped. It's felt as if whatever she could say would send me into a frenzy. I just wanted to hear what she would say. I needed to know.

' if Terreno ever gets her..she would turn on you and take Ace. Please everyone she's not a threat-"

Suddenly I laughed. It's the only thing I could do. Feeling a hand on my back from Sebast'yan till I looked at father. Everyone around has disgusted and shocked faces, even father.

" why are you smiling? She just sided with the enemy!" He shouts

I shook my head as I chuckled. " none of you know my lily and I know her. My poor girl is sending a message just to me...so thank you for letting me know"

I hung up and looked at Sebast'yan. " guess your question was answered no? She's okay but scared." He nodded and smiled

" Felix she just threatened—"
