King Mafia and Mago

Cabbage head

Some time back

The night was dark. Heavy grey clouds covered the shiny moon, taking away the calm of the night as thunder roared in the sky every few minutes. The roads were vacant; there was no traffic at that odd hour, except for the several SUVs that pierced through the harsh wind and raced towards the destination with a purpose.

The purpose is to bring back the tiny majesty.

While light rain thrummed against the cars and loud thunder clapped in the sky, the inside of the car was drowned in silence. Slow breathing and occasional device beeps were the only sounds competing against the outside world. King sat in the back, his face as nonchalant as it had been when he left the mansion, toying with the brooch Mago had gifted him on his birthday.

The time he had spent without Mago proved to be the hardest of all. King didn't believe the true impact of the boy on his life until the younger was gone for more than twenty-four hours. Everything around the house office, and even in his car reminded him of his tiny boyfriend. Mago had imprinted small details of his on King's belongings making it even more difficult for King to wait.

The pom pom pens, comic books, fluffy blankets and cute little other things all screamed Mago and King was happy for finally getting his boy back.

Flashback

After personally escorting Mr Chris into the mansion's basement, Charlton joined King in the hallway where the crime lord's office was. The scowl on his face told King that he wasn't the happiest at the moment as they descended the stairs together, discussing and proceeding for the great mission of the night.

"Pardon my manners King but that bastard Chris is a plague" Charlton spat in disgust, he stepped after King as he glanced at the screen of his loyal device once a few seconds. The crime lord only chuckled humourlessly in return, the roughness of his tone not surprising in the least as he scoff-laughed.

"Hm....my boy was unlucky to be fostered by him. But I am glad we found him sooner than later" he replied with a thought as a series of some of the earlier encounters with Mago surfaced and a smile bloomed on his features. Charlton nodded with a smile as well while both exited the mansion only to find Mr Xavier standing on the porch.

The former lord turned around to face them and smiled once his eyes met with his son.

Charlton excused himself and walked off to check the arrangements leaving both father and son duo alone. Pacing closer, Mr Xavier smiled again before placing his heavy hand on King's shoulder firmly.

"Are you ready my pride?" he asked with his charmingly commanding yet calm and collected voice and King finally smiled back as he looked at his father deep in the eyes.

"yes, father. Our men around the location have started to gather, Chris is here and soon others will join him as well" King answered truthfully, explaining the details of their plan and work they had put together until now, briefly. In all honesty, King was more than ready to bring the light of his life back into his arms but at what cost was the main concern. And that concern wasn't hidden when the older man understood his son's turmoil right away and squeezed King's shoulder in reassurance before patting there like a friend would.

"Don't stray from your purpose Raye, it is not what you need right now." Mr Xavier started calmly, his voice was laced with order but his tone was as soft as King remembered as a child. "I expect my son-in-law and grand-child back with my son......all safe and sound, count Lucca in as well and no mistakes" the older continued with dark eyes.
