I’m Dedicated To You

DOUGLAS’S POV

I drove into my brother’s compound with my red sports car and I got down from it since my other car got wrecked the other night I decided to make use of it.

I looked at the mansion that looked like the prime minister’s home due to its elegant design and I snickered knowing my parents really put a lot of care into it while they gave him the house.

After I got out of my car I also saw my brother coming out of the house and about to leave to go out.

“Good morning, are you going to the gym?” I asked about seizing up the gym suit he is putting on and I could see that he was in terror about my presence.

“What… are… you… doing.. here?” he asked, stuttering and I was surprised by the way he is easily scared.

How could a scaredy cat like that even think of committing such atrocities?

“For someone bold enough to think of sending assassins after me you are a coward, “I say and I see his face green with fear and I continue.

“And if you wanted to send people after I don’t send amateurs it’s disgusting fighting some lazy assholes” I said lazily and I gave a bored look.

“You must think you are some undefeated king that can not be overthrown, “Micheal said for the first time and I looked at him smirking.

“I just hope our parents that doted on their favorite son could witness this side of you then I can die peacefully without having any regrets” I mocked Micheal and I can see his face burning with fury.

“You!!”Micheal yelled.

“Since you are feeling so insecure then as an adopted son you should watch your head because now I won’t go easy on you”.

Yes, my older brother Michael was adopted by my parents who love children and since they were not able to get one themselves they decided to adopt but after sometime they were blessed with me. But I wooul not say it was a blessing because my mom struggled between taking care of two kids and since one was adopted she does not want to be impartial.

That was how I started getting neglected being the biological son while the adopted one got fired on but I could not blame them they were just caught up in their own incompetence.

But that adoptive son and of theirs is now going after their original son without their knowledge.

“And about the attack, you can trust me not to tell our parents and you can treat that as your birthday gift mom says I should give you this brown leather jacket the other day but I forgot, “I say pointing to the jacket I was wearing on my brown pants.

“Does mom know this side of you guys, I mean the other dark side,” Micheal said in a threatening voice and I smirked on how the flower boy was threatening me.

“I think we should start from how you lied that I hit you back then when we were in highschool and did you remember the time you stole dad’s money we could also tell him and….,’ I say trailing when I saw that my words got to him.

“I think you have more secrets than me dude so I hope you keep your little talk to yourself,” I say and I leave him standing on his house pouch and I enter my car driving out of the compound.

“You are wrong Douglas I am not as weak as you think”Micheal mutters and his facial expression of a coward earlier changes.

*****************************

Back at Hale’s ancestral mansion in the dining hall, everyone could be seen sitting down except two certain people.

“I am wondering when the two lovebirds will grace us with their presence,” Kate says and that makes Emily so mad.

“What are you saying Kate don’t associate my son with your useless talk,” Emily says and Justin cautioned her.

“We can just start eating and then they can join us later, “Grandma Hale says, putting a stop to the argument that could start with it and Beatrice shakes her head.

The family started dishing out their food and everyone started eating in silence before the arrival of Bradley and Georgina.

“Good morning” Georgina greeted cheerfully and she exchanged pleasantries with grandpa and grandma Hale.

“She must be a thick-skinned b***h, “Juliana thought.

“She is a really tough one after all the last night fiasco she can still smile cheerfully, “Kate thought, smiling sheepishly.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“How can my son be married to that vixen?”Emily thought angrily.

“She looks so beautiful, “Jayden thought, sipping water from his glass and licking his busted lips.

“I am sorry we don’t mean to be late for breakfast it’s just that…..”I was saying and I raised my hair letting my collarbone show which makes the hickey on my neck very visible.

“pah” the sound of shattering glassing on the floor could be heard and when Georgina looked to the source it was Jayden.

“Is that hickey on your neck?”Jayden asked in disbelief…
