His Little Star (BOOK 2)

𝐗𝐗𝐗𝐕

Abel POV
Few hours ago

"Who's all here?" I asked as I straightened myself up outside of the door. "Michael and jade, the stably twins, and Louie." Cameron said and I internally stabbed myself. "This is going to be a long night." I said and Cameron laughed. We walked upstairs but before I went to see them, I wiped myself down and changed and ordered someone to clean the room up.

I was too busy with David to come back in the room. I went back with Cameron and we walked downstairs to see everyone in the living room looking as judgmental as ever. "What're you doing here pops? You need to be at home." I said and walked over to him, he snorted. "Just like your mother but no, I had to be here after hearing what went down." I stood up and sighed.

"I'm working on it. We've been working on it since the night it happened , haven't gotten any sleep yet. I promise I'll find whoever did this." I promised my pops and to the others around. "I doubt that." Louie abruptly spoke up. "And what is it that you doubt Louis?" Louis was his real name. "Everything you just said. How do we know that you're saying what you mean. For all we know you could've just been sleeping." Everyone hummed in agreement with him and I rolled my eyes.

"Well, what do you want me to say Louis? You wasn't fucking there. Shit, for a long time you've never liked me and wanted to have this position, my position. How the fuck we know you ain't sabotage me to make me look bad?" He scoffed and everyone looked at him. "Alright then, sit yo flanky ass down and let the grown folks have a conversation. Anything to drink?" I asked. "No, let's get this situated." My pops said and I nodded.

I led them into my office and everyone filled into the room. "We heard something Abel, that we didn't like," jade said rounding my desk and looking at me. "We didn't want to ask you infront of your comrades because we have respect for the things you do. But, there's these rumors that are bothering me," she bent down to get face level with me but I kept my face stoic. "You gone keep telling me the shit over and over or are you going to tell me what they've been saying?" I titled her chin with my finger and looked at her lips then eyes.

"As charismatic as ever." She smiled and sat on the edge of my desk. "Dear." She looked back to Michael. "They've been saying you've been keeping the boy here at your home." He said and I looked at him. "What boy?" I asked cluelessly but I knew who they were referring too. He smiled. "The boy who messed up our money. Our shipment. Our shit, as you like to say." He said and I smiled. "I'm not." I lied. He snorted.

"I don't believe that because I also heard you and him know each other." I smiled and looked at my pops, who wasn't looking at me. "Maybe." I stretched. "Abel you're smarter than this. Give us the boy." He said and i scratched my eyebrow. "Do you know who blew up the jet?" I asked, not completely changing the subject.

"If you give us the boy, we'll let you know." He smiled.

I smiled back. "That's not going to happen I'm afraid. There's many ways I can find it out on my own but you keep playing shit games and we'll no longer have nothing to talk about." I smirked. "Abel do you think you can hide him for long?" He genuinely asked. "I know you like what you...like. But, don't you think you're taking this a bit too far. You'll end up getting that boy killed." He said and I nodded and rubbed my lip.

"Hmm. I might, but it wouldn't affect me. But what would affect me is if you actually decide to lay one finger on him and think I wouldn't do anything about it. But, again, I don't know what boy you're referring to and the only boy that's in my home right now is the boy right behind you on that wall." It was a painted picture of a boy standing next to a dog.

They all looked back and I kept my eye on Jade. Every move I made, she would catch it. She was good as hell too but the difference between me and Jade was...I was just way much better at it and hiding things. "Well," he said. "You said what you said. The person who did it was Cain, I'm pretty sure that name rings a bell." Cain? Although, I'm not surprised, but it's definitely entertaining. "I like that look in your eyes." Jade said to me and I looked at her.

"If I find that boy, I'll let you have him," I said and leaned back in my chair. "On one condition, he'll work for me in getting back at Cain and you don't lay a hand on him or even try and after the deed is done, you can take him with you." I offered and I guess they liked it but I didn't really give a damn on what they liked.

"Hmm," they looked at each other. "Deal." They said. I nodded.
