The Twin Alphas Warrior Luna by RYN

Chapter 124

MIRO

I pressed the elevator button and when it opened, I found about three men in it standing with a little boy of like six. All wearing suits. From the similar tattoos on their necks, I could tell they were mafia but from the wary looks the men gave me, I could tell, they felt threatened.

Not caring, I entered, moving to the back and as we rode the elevator down in silence, the little boy craned his neck around and smiled at me. I smiled back, giving him a wink but the man he was holding hands with, turned his face forward.

As soon as we landed, they rushed out of the elevator like I was a plague and I found that somewhat amusing and satisfying. Exiting the elevator, I headed to the private casino where my father and his inner circle met once in a while but just as I was about to turn a corner where I'd see them, my enhanced hearing picked up on their conversation.

I froze.

From what I could hear, Mr. Cresswell seemed to have just arrived and was asking the circle about the game.

"My son defeated eight champions in under two hours." I heard my father say with pride which brought a smile to my face. "I never knew he could be such a good cash machine, I would have paid attention to him years ago." My smile faded.

"Well, good thing you're paying attention to him now." Mr. Caine said, pouring himself a drink. "He seems eager to please you."

"He better be if he wants my affection as a father." My father chuckled. "Where have you been, Robert? You missed the game and a lot of good money."

Mr. Cresswell sighed. "My wife wanted some extra attention and I couldn't resist. Besides, with the money I made on Ryn today, I am so satisfied."

A sliver of silence settled at the table.

"You're acting like a traitor, Robert." Someone said and the power in his voice made me know that, that was Mr. Blackwell. "Why?" Mr. Cresswell laughed. "Because you thought your son could beat Ryn Ashmore? Oh, please." "He was supposed to." My father answered, "What happened to your boy, Eric?"

"I have no idea but Adam's being punished as we speak. I can't have a son who can't even beat a girl."

"Me neither." Mr. Caine piped up. "Konan is also going through severe punishment. A hundred lashes to the back. I promised him that if he didn't win the event."
