"I need to go, everyone. Someone is waiting for me in the headquarters."
All of them looked at Raziel, confused. After they discussed everything with Officer Jones, all of them decided to chill out in the backyard of the abandoned building. They need to release the stress in the not so early morning.
"Who? A girl?" Kaede asked.
"Yeah, and probably not your typical girl," Raziel answered. "Someone wants to go with me?"
"Bro, we have a fucking car. Go with yourself," Darius sarcastically answered him.
"I'll go with you," Caspian said and started walking to the parking lot first.
"I'll go too!" Kaede ran towards Caspian.
"Wait for me!" Azrael shouted.
"Don't fucking leave me here!" Darius ran too.
"Assholes," Raziel whispered. "I'll go first," he told the brothers. Both of them nod in unison that made him laugh.
"You're not going?" Jiro asked his brother. He looked at the beautiful scenery in front of them, tall trees and beautiful flowers were everywhere.
"No, I'm not going yet." Casper sat on the grass, under the Mango tree. "You? Why are you still here?" He asked his brother.
"For a break," he answered. Casper just nodded, not convinced by what his brother said. He knows that he's going through something but he doesn't want to meddle with his brother's life. All his life he never tried to ask his brother about his emotions. They never opened to each other but deep inside, in the bottom of their hearts, they want the best for each other.
Caspian parked his Raptor beside the big bike, Kawasaki Nija 400 BS6. His brows furrowed after realizing that none of his mafias own the big bike. Though Casper owned a big bike, he doesn't own a Kawasaki.
"Who's bike is this?" He pointed at it.
"Ah! That owned by someone I know," Raziel said before he entered the elevator. All of them went inside except Caspian. "You won't go in?"
"All of you go first. I have to do something," he answered. After all of them nodded, the door of the elevator closed.
"Where is your visitor?" Kaede asked.
"Seems like you're more excited to see her than me," he chuckled. All of them laughed.
When the elevator opened, a girl sitting in the lobby welcomed them. She was wearing a short red dress and a white shoes. Her brown wavy hair was in ponytail and she's wearing a silver necklace that completes her look.
But the girl beside her caught Kaede's attention. She was wearing a black dress and black shoes. Her black hair was also ties in ponytail. Her smiles while talking to the girl beside her made him smile too. "She's indeed a sun."
"Fionna!" Raziel raised his hand and that caught the girl's attention. She ran towards him to hug him. "You hug me as if we didn't see each other last night," he joked that made her laugh.
"By the way, they're my friends. Kaede, Darius, and Azrael," he introduced them. All of them offered their hand and the two girls gladly accepted it.
After shaking hands with Fionna, Kaede stared at the other girl. "We met again," he said and smiled.
"Yeah. I guess it's destiny," the girl smiled back. The other guys made a teasing sound that made both of them laugh. Kaede was just staring at her eyes while she's smiling, she was stunning.
"That's with you all?" Caspian's deep voice caught their attention. All of them looked at him.
"Oh! This is Caspian. Caspian Magnus Catillo. I bet the two of you know him," Raziel introduced.
"And who are they?" Caspian asked, without looking at the two girls in front of him.
"I'm Fionna," she offered him a hand.
By the time Caspian's eyes laid on the beautiful girl in front of him, he was shocked but he had to play it cool. The woman he was looking! The only woman who caught his attention!
He hesitated to accept her hand but soon accepted it. "Is she your girl friend?" He asked Raziel. He has no choice! He don't want to get close with other guy's gurl friend.
Raziel burst into laugher after he heard his question. "Bro, what the actual fuck? She's just my friend! You know me, I don't want serious relationships," he said. Caspian just nodded. That was the assurance he needed.
All of them looked at the elevator when it opened, revealing the two brothers looking at them confused. "What is happening? Why are y'all here?" Casper asked.
After Raziel introduced the two girls, Jiro invited all of them for a lunch. They went to the headquarters' cafeteria located near the lobby. Miguel Lazarillo was also there to discuss about the incident happened last night.
Meanwhile all of them were so invested with Miguel's explanation and plans, Caspian was distracted. He keeps playing his fingers. He keeps on staring at the girl beside him, Fionna.
Casper noticed that. "Why the fuck are you distracted, Castillo?" He raised a brow.
"Castillo, I was discussing here for almost ten minutes and you're not even listening?" Miguel said. "And what's with this water? A lot of ice were floating."
"Castillo, I was discussing here for almost ten minutes and you're not even listening?" Miguel said.
"I-I was listening. It's just-" He didn't get to finish what he will say when someone shouted.
"Ah!"
All of them looked at the girl who screamed. A girl was in front of her, laying on the floor lifeless. "A d-dead body!" She keeps shouting.
"Calm down," Casper approached her and held her hands who was trembling, but the girl just keeps shaking her head. She was traumatized, that's what Caspian thought.
"N-No... A dead body. A d-dead body in front of me! A dead body!"
"Calm down please," he keeps repeating but she didn't listen.
"I said fucking calm down!" He shouted, getting impatient. The girl is now quiet, surprised by Caspian's sudden raise of voice.
"I'm sorry but this is not about you. Get out of here, will you?"
Kaede and Azrael assisted the girl away from Caspian and the dead body. Casper gave her a glass of water to calm herself. Her hands are still trembling, and she's staring at nowhere, a sign that she's traumatized by what she saw.
"Who's the one who gave her a glass of water?" Caspian asked the people near the table.
"The waitress- wait, Janella!" Someone called the waitress. The girl, probably the waitress, smiled at the guy who called her.
"Yes?"
"Mr. Castillo called you."
The waitress approached Caspian, still smiling. "You're the culprit, aren't you?" Caspian asked her.
"You are the one who killed her!"Caspian pointed at the waitress. All of them are shocked, even the mafias. How could a waitress kill someone when she is just doing her job a while ago? But Caspian can prove his statement because of the evidences he saw."You're the one who gave her a glass of water, so basically you murdered her." "What?!" The waitress shouted. She looked frustrated and defensive. "How could I kill her by just giving her a glass of water? Are you fucking accusing me, Mr. Mafia Boss?" "Well first of all, I can prove that you are the one who killed her just because of this glass of water." He picked up the glass of water. "Miguel, what have you noticed with your water?""A lot of ice were floating.""When you put ice in a glass of water, the ice will float. But this water he was drinking, the ice was submerged. Water is heavier than ice. It expels the lighter ice and enables the ice to float to the top," he explained."Fuck," the waitress cursed. She was about to es
Caspian's pov:"Is it a bad idea that I let her come with me?"I asked myself while looking at the mirror in front of me. She told me that she needs to go to the restroom so I stopped the car in the nearest gasoline station. I was distracted the whole time! I don't know how to react."This is my first time letting a woman enter my car. Yes, first time so my feelings are valid. Yes, valid," I assured myself.I went to the convenience store beside the gasoline station to buy some snacks to eat. I ran out of food stock in my house, especially my snacks. Casper was in my house last night and he didn't do anything but play my PS5 the whole night, he even ate my snacks. That dumbass.After I payed the cashier I went to my Raptor and there I saw the woman waiting for me. "Caspian, calm," I reminded myself."Oh, what did you buy?" She asked me, smiling. I saw how her eyes lit up when she saw me but her smile is fake, I can sense that something is wrong with this woman."Just snacks," I boring
Caspian's pov:"Good morning, Mr. Castillo."Everyone in the board room stood up to greet me, except Hunter Cody Lazus. He didn't even bother to glance at me. All of them are not surprised, they know that I am Hunter's biggest rival. He's insecure of me and my city but I don't blame him, if I were him I would be insecure with myself too.I am the most respected mafia boss in the country and his insecurities towards me is very understandable. I am the number 1 mafia and he didn't even make it to top 5 of being the strongest and greatest mafia in the country. I gestured them to sit in their respective seats. "Let's start," I told them. I sat on my seat located at the very front. I looked at them one by one, trying to see if every mafia boss in the country was present."Mr. Elizalde is absent. He told me that he has more important plans than this today." I nodded at Mr. Acosa and thanking him for telling me. I was actually looking for Mr. Elizalde. He is a big catch and I know if he wil
Caspian's pov:"We're not fucking kissing!"I defended myself because it's true! Who the fuck would kiss this old and gay mafia boss? I don't give a fuck about Hunter, who caught us today, but knowing him, he would gossip about what happened. He wants my image to be dirty."OK," he said, but I sensed sarcasm in his tone. "I don't give a fuck though. Why so defensive?" I removed Adamson's hands from my shoulders and went to my chair to get my things. I need to get out of here. I have things to do in the headquarters. When I was about to leave the room, Hunter said something, so I stopped."Fionna, do you know Caspian? Caspian Magnus Castillo from Ciudad Reál?" Hunter loudly asked. Why the fuck would he ask her about me? I looked back to see her reaction, but it seemed like she was not bothered by what Hunter asked her. Is there something wrong? "Yes," it's almost a whispered when she said that. I left the room after that. I don't want to meddle in their conversation. I don't care if
Caspian's pov."Let's make a deal."I looked at her, confused. What kind of deal is she thinking? We both know that her brother is my biggest rival and the reason why Ciudad Reál is a mess is because of them! How am I going to trust her?"A deal? Really?" I shifted on my seat. "Come on, Via. I know what you're thinking. You probably want to watch my downfall.""What?!"Is she shocked? Does she thinks that I won't know their plan? What am I? Stupid? I am not stupid, but their plan is."You know what, I regretted that I trusted you. The time that I saw you holding Hunter's arms, I should've distanced myself from you! You fucking traitor!""I am not a traitor!" We're both shouting now. I was relieved that the other mafias were away because I am not going to waste my time arguing with this girl here in the headquarters if the mafias were here."Then what, Via?! Are you going to manipulate me? Again?" "I never manipulated-""Then explain why did you brought me to Aranda City when you knew
"Get on your grip everyone!" Caspian shouted as he tried to lift everyone's energy. Early in the morning, he called all the mafias to the headquarters for some training sessions. They need the safety of their city, Ciudad Reál, especially now that the Castillo Clan's biggest rival are starting to make a move. "Darius! Hold the Gold Revolver tight! You're not holding a fucking Gold Retriever," Caspian said. "Casper, you mother fucker. What are you doing?" He continued scolding everyone that is not doing their tasks right. Casper, his cousin, put the gun on the table where all pistols are located. "Boss, chill. We are just training. We are not on a war or something," he chuckled. That earned a smack from Caspian. What he dislikes most of all are people who don’t take work seriously. When he is working, there's no friendship is involved. Work is work. That is Caspian, a man who is passionate with his work. "You can joke all you want but never make a joke while doing this work," he s
"Caspian! Why are you rushing?" He drank the last shot of Alfonso in his glass before he put it on the table. Jiro looked at him, confused. Caspian is drinking nonstop, as if he wants to go home already. "I'm done!" He wiped the side of his lips. "I'll get going now." He snatched his keys from Jiro before walking away. While taking the stairs, he scanned the whole dance floor. He muttered a curse when he can't see the woman that caught his attention. Jiro was just silently following him without him knowing. He wants Caspian to be safe, especially now that he drank a lot of alcohol. Man finished three fucking bottles of alcohol all by himself. Jiro was genuinely concerned by how Caspian is acting. He is not like that. "Fuck, wait!" Jiro immediately scanned the whole bar, from every corners of it to the middle of the dance floor. Caspian was gone in just a snap! Jiro was annoyed and at the same time concerned. Someone held his arms that made him look fast at the one who held him, h
