Banquet

Sebastian p.o.v

The following sunrise, I accomplished my daily routines and headed down to the first floor for breakfast.

A smirk made its way to my lips when I heard the screaming sound of that traitor echoing in the whole castle. Alexis does a great job by playing the recording, he never disappoints me in any way.

I descended the stairs and amble towards the dining nook. Everyone is already present there and they are ready to commence their day. Assignments according to their positions and abilities are already assigned to them.

The maid served me, my breakfast and I munched on it. All of them tried to eat their breakfast along with me but it came off to be a quite difficult task for them.

Some of them clasped their fork and knife in their hands and some are trying to swallow their food but fear is evident all over their faces.

Good!! this way, I wanted to convey to them a massage ' Never bite the hand which feeds you. Now any of them will think twice before accepting any offer from an enemy.

I fed on people's fear and I'm feeling delighted now.

But Alexis is just like me, he is unbothered by the environment. He ate his breakfast as any other normal day but I knew his heart must be filled with disdain.

But I can't help him with this, we all are fighting with our demons, and he needed to go through it all alone too.

" Is everything ready Daniel?"

I inspected Daniel professionally after I finished my breakfast. One thing more they need to learn is that I'm their employer and they are my employees.

We never can be friends or anything else, I owned them. If we are a family then I'm the head of the family.

" Yes, Master everything is ready."

He replied to me with confidence and I glanced proudly at him. Although he normally behaved as a stary b! tch when it's time to perform a task, he is as disciplined as Alexis.

" Have a nice day everyone!!."

I raised from my chair while wishing them. It's a taut, mockery and arrogance dripping from my voice but I cared more or less about these things.

A group of men laced with different kinds of firearms encircled me as I came out of the dining area. These men are from Daniel's team.

He is the leader of his team and their every mistake is counted on him.

As I came out of the castle's main door, I stretched out my hand and demand my sports car's key from Daniel.

It's his responsibility to take out my car from the garage and inspected it carefully before I used it.

My brand-new black colored sports car from Buggati is already parked on the patio. This model is going to launch this month and it's already been in my collection for the last three months.

The company gifted it to me on a count of bribery, it's one of the advantages to rule the most feared community named 'Mafia'.

Daniel handed over me the key and I jumped in it within a moment. With a slight noise, the car engine comes to life and the machine picked up the pace.

It's classic and incomparably speedy exactly the way I like. I authorized the staring wheel and directed it to move out of the castle gate.

Three Sports cars from different brands are leading my way and four cars are trailing behind me but all are black.

I'm impressed with Daniel and the reason is the strategy he used in arranging my security is remarkable.

I raced my car for almost thirty minutes to reach the private airport, where my private jet is already waiting for me.

The back door of the plane is already opened along with a slide and I speed up my car to get a direct entry into the plane. I'm not going to leave my possession behind at any cost.

Daniel and his team member also board the aircraft. He examined the area for a while and after that, he gets relaxed in his seat.

Meanwhile, I settled down in my lounge. The pilot announced the weather and conditions of the aircraft when we take off from my private island.

This island is my home, I'm raised here so I knew every nook and corner of this place as the back of my hand and it gives me a warm and homely feeling.

A few moments later, a flight attendant made her way to me and inquire about my preference. After assuring my comfort, she left my cabin. I buried myself in the pile of files which is placed on my cabin's table.

It is almost evening when we landed at our destination. I drive out from the plane direct from my car.

I attached an earpiece to my left ear and connect a line to Daniel via wifi from my car.

" Daniel takes the route of Ryan's club, we will attend the banquet and meet everyone including Mr. Xavier William there. We don't have time for others meeting now."

I acknowledged Daniel about my change in the plan, who is settled in one of the front cars, they are guarding me all along the way.

We pierced through the busy streets of the city. All the passersby are awestruck by the scenario as they began taking pictures and filming from their cell phones.

Soon we arrived at the club. Daniel opened the door for me and Ryan's manager welcomed me with a bouquet.

Daniel's team cleared the path for me as we entered the ballroom. I'm not surprised to notice the face of every powerful man there. I know they will attend this banquet for sure.

The manager brought us to a different kind of banquet hall and I'm familiar with this place.

It's the region where the 'Auction' is held. The blanket of silence engulfed the whole space as I stepped into the ballroom. All the people present in the hall lifted from their seats to greet me.

Daniel lead my way to the gallery and it is all crowded with nobility. My throne has always been the center of attraction and it became more allure as I claimed it.

A lot of businessmen and ranked officers approached me with assorted propositions but fear is the one thing common in their eyes and faces.

I looked around to catch a glimpse of Ryan but failed to find him.

Suddenly, my phone beeped to indicate I received a notification. I unlocked my phone and discover it is a message from Ryan.

{ Ryan: Hi Seb, l purchased a new toy for me and now I'm going to enjoy it. Enjoy buddy and found a pretty toy for yourself too.}

I don't read further as I stuffed it back into my pocket.

" Hello!!! Mr. Sebastian King, my name is Xavier William."

Suddenly a man with a rough look and harsh voice stretched out his hand to me.
