Icarus Rose [TRANSLATION]

Chapter Forty Two

Charles drove down to Doncaster after discussing it with Edmund, who had agreed to stay a few days at the Tomlinsons'. The alpha's hands gripped the steering wheel tightly and his foot felt heavy on the accelerator, and for his part Styles thought exactly the words he was going to say, he needed to destroy Icarus Rose at any cost and no matter what price he had to pay, his son and everything he owned had been taken from him, a tear slipped down his cheek, but he wiped it away roughly.

"You reek of sadness and anger." Charles spat, rolling down the car windows.

"I'm sorry, there's just been a lot of things today." Ed replied as Charles parked outside a huge house on a private street, he could see the lights on through the windows.

"We'll discuss it in my office, oh, and if my omega asks, don't tell her your real last name, do you understand? I'm letting you stay at my house for a few days, but that doesn't mean we're friends, much less that you can talk to my wife or my daughters."

"I don't want to be your friend Tomlinson, all I need from you is to help me figure this out, and I think after listening to what I've heard you'll agree with me."

Both alphas got out of the car and entered the house. An omega came out of the kitchen with oven mitts in her hands, she smiled and gave her alpha a soft kiss, that reminded Ed a little of his family, what he could have had if he hadn't been a complete coward wretch when he got Jane pregnant, but he quickly erased that image from his head, it was too late for that."

"Lillibeth, darling, this is Edmund... Wade, a new partner, whom I offered to host for a few days because we need to discuss some matters." The alpha lied, but his omega seemed satisfied with that statement.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Wade, Elizabeth Tomlinson." They shook hands and smiled politely, although there was something about the man that the omega just didn't like. "I imagine you'll be in your office, dear, I'll bring you two some tea, is that okay?"

"Perfect, thank you, dear." Agreed Charles, both alphas entered the office that was next to the stairs, once inside and with the door closed Tomlinson told Styles to sit down. "Aren't you going to talk?I haven't got all night."

"Well, all I know is that Louis Tomlinson is one of the three crowns of Icarus Rose, one of the most powerful mafias, if not the most powerful in the world, " Ed said with a bit of venom in his voice, "and apparently he also has a thing for my son."

"I don't care if that bastard has anything to do with your stupid son or not." Charles spat, his voice laden with venom. "I thought that the bastard was dead, that's why I got rid of him, but apparently he's still out there dirtying the Tomlinson last name."

Neither of the two alphas noticed Lillibeth's stealthy footsteps outside the office, who frowned upon hearing her husband's words, what bastard was he talking about? Did he have another child that she didn't know about? She left the tray with the tea on a table next to the door and moved closer to it, very quiet and attentive to the conversation.

"Well, apparently not, a few years ago among the mafias a rumour spread, it was said that Kasper Malik took in two orphaned children, Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson." Elizabeth's heart clenched when she heard the name of her son, whom she believed dead years ago...

She had been looking for her son for months, regretting having allowed Charles to run Louis out of the house, he was just an eleven-year-old boy, he wandered all over the city, her omega screaming for her to find her puppy, where could he be? But while she was contacting some people who claimed to have seen it, her alpha arrived with the worst news a mother could have been given.
