The ladies in the club couldn't avoid staring at the man who sat with a wine in his hand, gently sipping it.Only,it looked and felt like they were the only ones feeling a connection since the man won't even look  their way.His eyes scanned the VIP section of the club he sat as he sipped his wine.

He place it on the glass table before him and turned to his companion, Kelvin Lee, who sat next to him staring at the ladies.

"Can't you see man, they ladies can't avoid eye contact"Kelvin said.

The man stared at Kelvin, emotionless.Then suddenly smirked.

"So what are you implying?"He asked and took the wine again.

"Look their way and wink .If I were you,The great Dunn Apollo, with your looks, I wouldn't even think twice.They'd be sharing this seat with me"Kelvin said the fact.And it was no lie.

Dunn Apollo's looks were so..... Spectacular.

His hair was dark ,soft and silky which covered his neck and one of his eye with precision.He had hazel eyes which can make a woman faint off because they screamed beauty and were alluring.One could look at them forever.

Apollo's mouth was heart-shaped.His lips were pink and soft and ladies couldn't wait to have it tainted with theirs.Though, they could only dream of it but they knew it would never happen.Apollo was untouchable.He only gets to touch you if he wants you which will never happen since love is not his league.The obvious evidence was the tattoo of a broken heart at the left side of his neck.

His body was muscular and built-up, exuding his strength and  dominance.His abs were built up.And one thing which made him  scream peril was the tattoos on his chest and left arm.Plus, it could be visible because he mostly wore  cuban shirts with few buttons unbuttoned.

Apollo was so attractive with his sharp diamond shaped jawline and of course no lady would avoid a hot attractive seductive and on top of it all wealthy young man.

"I don't have time for this Kelvin"Apollo said and sipped his wine.

"What?I ain't joking."Kelvin said.

Apollo said he didn't have time for the conversation because he didn't want to talk about it.Yet,there Kelvin was expecting an answer.Apollo Dunn was the son of the Don of the Dunn Mafia clan.His father was so dangerous and so wealthy.And Kelvin,of course was just a nobody in the clan.Somehow like Apollo's assistant even though he wanted to be more than that.

Apollo shot a death glare at him and he cleared his throat."So,"Apollo spoke"When is the meeting coming on.Be sure to avoid picking a time that would affect me,I can't disappoint the Don"

"How about 5:30 tomorrow?"

"Change it"Apollo said, sipping his wine without making eye contact with Kelvin."I'll be busy"He added

"Sorry Apollo but that's the only time the other members of the clan would be available."Kelvin said.

Apollo turned to him."I said you should change it "

"Okay Sir, I'll try something else."Kelvin said as fear enveloped him.He knew what his friend slash boss was capable of.He knew how perilous Dunn Apollo was.

It was just ironic how his boss was a servant and an errand boy just like him to the Don,his father .

All Apollo ever wanted since the day he turned twelve years till date was for his father Lucus Dunn to at least be proud of him but it seemed like an impossible dream.Due to this, Apollo did everything with some kind of pressure and feeling just to make his father proud.

To Kelvin and others like Dunn Aaron —his stepbrother —it was waste of time. But to him,it meant everything.

Suddenly, Apollo's phone rang vigorously on the table.He picked it up only to see it was a call from office.He rolled his eyes and answered the call.Kelvin glanced at him before staring back at his computer, trying to figure out what to do so the meeting would be held another time that would favor both Apollo and the clan members.

"Hello"

"Hello Mr.Dunn please we have a little problem"Linda, his secretary said.

"Speak"Apollo commanded.

"Mr Dunn please Mr Clad denied our proposal saying he'd rather work with Dunn Square company "Linda said.

"Call him offer that proposal again "Apollo said quietly.

"I already tried that Mr.Dunn Apollo, but he said he wouldn't —"

"Fix it"Apollo said quietly with a subtle hint of anger in his tone ..Kelvin stared at him.

"But sir there's nothing I can do about it"

"I said you should fix it"His tone was rising.There was one thing Kelvin knew for sure.That Dunn Apollo's bark and bite were both worse.

"Mr.Dunn he refused saying it was better to work with Dunn Square company, Indicating, working with Mr.Dunn Aaron than with —"

"Fix it Now!"Now all the anger and burning rage could be heard and seen.The ladies who stared at him's heart skipped a beat.

One thing every one working with Dunn Apollo should know is,he hates it when his brother slash enemy, Aaron gets something that or which is his or that he wants.

Apollo drove with speed angrily.Not because he wanted to get home early but because he was angry.One should always count his or her self unlucky when sitting in the same car with Apollo when he's angry.

And the news Linda just told him aroused apoplexy to  him.

Apollo hated his stepbrother from the first day he set his eyes on him .It was Aaron Dunn,his pre-eminent enemy,who ruined the happy family he had.

Of course if The Don hadn't fallen for Juliet Bruce and hadn't cheated on his lovely mother Samantha Smith, nothing of this sort would have happened.

According to Samantha,The Don,Lucus Dunn loved her, his first wife.But Juliet, Aaron's mother seduced him until he slept with her and became pregnant with Aaron .

Then few months later Samantha became pregnant with Apollo.

Apollo,at a tender age, often withnessed his parents arguing about pitty things after Samantha discovered the Juliet incident.His once happy family turned into a crumpled shit he didn't want.

Then when he turned twelve,his mother left him alone and he was left to live with the Don, and his new mistress together with her son.

Apollo often wondered if his dad ever loved him . Because, after Juliet and her son Aaron came , Apollo was rejected.All the Don's attention was on Aaron and Apollo saw that if he wanted to get attention like before,he needs to please his father.

Only the Don wasn't pleased easily and even if Apollo was close to pleasing him, Aaron always got in the way.

They both had separate companies,both under the Dunn Empire.They were both leaders of the a mafia clan , working for their father and lastly,they were both attractive and hot,sons of a dangerous Mafia Clan Boss.

Mr Clad was also a wealthy man and when his company associates with yours,no matter how rich you are you get more richer than before.

Apollo didn't know what made Mr Clad change his mind to associate with Dunn Square, Aaron's company.But he hated to hear that Aaron had taken what he wants and hated his predominant enemy more than anything.

Apollo parked in front of the sumptuous, magnificent mansion and run his hand through his silky  hair.

The deluxe gate opened automatically and Apollo entered the mansion.He got out of the car and entered ,fuming.

The house was quite as usual—as when Aaron and Apollo don't make eye contact ·It has been like this since Don was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease .

Apollo ascended the staircase, wishing to not meet Aaron to avoid any fight since he was cheesed  off.Before he could even hold the door knob of his door,he heard "Welcome"

It was no other person than Aaron.

Apollo reluctantly turned to him,his eyes were fuming with rage."So how is Mr.Clad doing?I heard you wanted to join forces with him.How'd it go?"Aaron smirked while playing with the coin in his hand.

"I don't have time for this Aaron "Apollo said.He was telling lies .He wanted this.Just one more push until he loses control and jumps unto  Aaron like a hungry lion.

"What I'm I doing?"Aaron asked, obviously aware of what he was doing."I'm not in the mood for this"Apollo's voice went cold as he glared at Aaron whose presence enraged him .

For a minute, Aaron looked angry and suddenly smirked.

"I don't have time for this either"He said.

"Well, lemme not disturb you,"He continued"The Don wants to see us.Says it's urgent."With that,he began walking away leaving Apollo there with clenching fists.

Apollo stared at him as he left.Anger stroke him like thunder.He wished he punched him or skinned him alive.He wishes for this every time.But he didn't and won't —at least not now—because, well, that would disturb his sick father and that would result in his father being disappointed in him once more.

Apollo got downstairs and noticed the Don was seated smoking his tobacco at the dining room with his beloved wife, Aurora sitting next to him. After Juliet Bruce died, the Don married another wife Aurora Berman,who was much younger than both Juliet and Samantha when the Don first married them.

Aurora was really beautiful and cared for both the Don and his two sons but in return she only received hatred from the two brothers and some different kind of love from the Don.

At times the Don would treat her like an angel, like a princess and she would have fun fucking the hell out of him and at times he'd turned into this monster who knows no one.

His mood swings got worst when he got diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.A progressive disease that destroys memory and other important mental functions.

A patient with that disease 's brain cell connections and  the cells themselves degenerate and die,sooner destroying the memory and other significant mental functions.

The patient experiences symptoms like  confusions at evening hours,agitation and aggression and also depression.

Therefore,the Don knowing how bad his condition can get, allows Aurora to sit beside him in order to explain anything he wants to say into details before he completely forgets.

Two seats away from Aurora was Aaron.Apollo sat opposite Aaron and glared angrily at him.

"Good day for you two"The Don's voice sounded tired yet it issued command." The Don has bad news for you two "Aurora said quietly.

"As you both know,"The Don continued,"I was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease a year ago."

The room was silent as they're gaze remained on the Don.Aurora took his hand and gave him a reassuring nod.

"And you both know that I have been going through a lot since I contracted this disease."The Don said ,his gaze on his two sons who stared at him with no emotion drawn on their face.

He was confident in his sons.Their responsibility to make him adore them made them do the the needful at times.They were the exact replica of him.Ruthless, Contemptuous and perilous.

His two attractive sons who took no for an answer.His sons who would do anything to hear "I'm proud of you"from him.

The Don was weak.He missed those days when he was young and stood up on his feet.Yes,he still stood up on his feet and made the rules but almost all he said were things he didn't really comprehend or mean to say but he said as a results of the Alzheimer's disease also called Senile dementia.

    His hair, still dark with strands of grey.He now had wrinkles on his face and he was forcefully growing because of the depression and confusion he was going through due to the disease.

"So my head was spinning today and Aurora my beloved wife,"With that he planted a kiss on Aurora's lips while she closed her eyes."invited the doctor over ."the Don continued with his gaze now on both of his sons.

Aurora also stared at them.

"The doctor checked me.He said my brain cell connections and the cells in me are dying."The pain could be heard from his tone but he shed no years and his eyes weren't close to being moist.

Apollo lowered his gaze .He was worried.

"He said that I have two more years till my death."

"What?!"Apollo and Aaron said at the same time.

"Yes.Only two years"Aurora added,her voice symbolizing worry and pity.

"I can't die like this!"The pain in his voice was missing."Says I have two more years till my death."The disease was taking place and now The Don was repeating stuffs.

"I can't die like this! I hear there is another empire increasing in wealth while the Dunn empire stay at where we are!"He yelled .His voice conveyed anger but they were used to this .It was only Aurora whose heart skipped a beat a little.

The Don smoked his tobacco and continued;"I hear they have taken the first sport in ranking of wealth."this time he said it quietly.

"Useless sons."He insulted."Why sit there and make our name go waste?I want to see who really wants to make dada proud sons ."Aurora looked disappointed in her husband but said nothing.

Apollo and Aaron glared at each other.

"Which of would work with The Cruze Empire and then get their wealth as ours.Is it Dunn Square or Dunn Root.Who is gonna make dada proud?"

Aurora realized from the way the the brothers glared at themselves that this was nothing but a competition to see who the Don would be proud of.

And she was certain about it when Aaron smirked and Apollo grinned.
