6. SAMUEL
I allowed Leo to collect his things. I didnât give him his phone back. I knew what I needed to know about him. He was the one. He was the cute onesie wearing boy whoâd occupied my mind on that app. But he didnât look like that now, he dressed in a tracksuit, it was a far cry from the boy in those pictures.
I wanted all his things here. And the two men whoâd grabbed him at the park accompanied him. He wouldnât try anything, especially since he wore the bruising from their actions on his face.
My flat was on the penthouse floor overlooking Hyde Park. It had four bedrooms, although Iâd converted one into a gym and the other into a home office, alongside three bathrooms. Two en-suites, and one for guests. It wasnât as grand as my parentsâ home, but it was mine.
The décor and colour palette of the place came from me. I made sure it all looked sleek with the white, silver, cream, and chrome over everything. I enjoyed the futuristic look and feel to things.
Nobody knew my plan with Leo, in fact, the only people who knew about him were the two men whoâd picked him up and brought him to the basement of my parentsâ house. But I had big plans for him. My family werenât at war, but it was only a matter of time. Tensions were growing heavy and pulling us apart, but the last thing the family needed was to be split.
I swirled the amber scotch in my glass as I called my cousin, Elias to figure out what he wanted. I knew Preston wouldâve been talking in his ear like the devil he is.
âHey cousin,â I said. âI hope I havenât called you at a bad time.â
âNo, no, itâs good,â he said. âI called earlier at the office. I know you met with Preston, and I had some ideas.â
Although my father was the head of the firm, I was acting head while he was sick. âWhat do you need?â
âI want to do more than smuggle drugs through art,â he said. âI want to have more responsibility.â
âListen, Elias. Drugs account for most of the money coming in,â I lied. âYou already have a huge responsibility. I donât want you to be spread thinner than you already are.â
âI donât feel like it is though,â he said. âPreston seems to think youâre keeping us out of all the important business stuff. Our fatherâs have little say now. This is for us to control. We shouldnât be sitting on our hands doing what theyâve been doing for the lastâhowever many years. We need to grow.â
âElias, youâre like a brother. Weâre family. And since weâre family, Iâm going to trust that youâve got my back with the decisions that Iâm making,â I said, taking a sip of the scotch. It warmed my throat like a pleasant spice. âIn fact, I wanted to let you know about an idea I had, but weâll have to figure out a meeting for that because like you said, this is ours now.
