NovelGold1 A Father’s Warning
Sean chattered on and on, mumbling happily to himself as he stared at his phone.
When Baron walked into his room, he found his son grinning like a fool, whispering to the screen.
Baron had seen many sides of this boy, but never this.
“Sean, what are you doing?”
“N-nothing!”
Sean jerked upright, shoving the phone behind his back. His voice.cracked. “I was... watching videos.”

“Less screen time. Bad for your eyes. Cdown for breakfast. After we eat, I'll take you and Susie off this
island... to see your mommy.”
“Really?”
Sean nearly burst with joy. He scrambled off the bed, eyes wide, practically bouncing in place.
“Daddy, you're a man. You have to keep your word. Otherwise, you're a puppy!”
Outside, anyone who dared call Mr. Gunn-or worse, the Witch Doctor-a puppy would be dead before the words
left their lips.
But from his son, Baron only smiled faintly.
*Alright.”

He flicked the boy’s nose, then led him downstairs.
Breakfast that day was filled with laughter. Susie’s dimples flashed with every giggle, too delighted to hide her
excitement. Sean stuffed food into his mouth as if every bite brought him closer to Natalie.
The butler’s heart, however, grew heavy. “Sir, perhaps my wife and | should calong. We've raised the
children since birth. Sof their habits... servants elsewhere might not know how to handle them.”
Baron considered, then nodded. “Fine. Pack what you need. You'll come.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Yay!” Susie clapped her hands. “I like Grandpa Butler and Grandma together!”
Sean's thoughts were already far away, fixed on the moment he would finally see his mother.
An hour later, the twins stood beside Baron on the deck of the yacht. The sea stretched endlessly before them as
the ship cut across the waves toward Murica.

Baron's face was composed, but inside his chest tightened.

If not for Natalie's need, he would never have let the children step into the open. Bringing them into the world
meant more eyes, more risk, more enemies to guard against.
It meant more weight on his shoulders.
And more blood, if need be.
His phone rang. Yvonne.
Baron's eyes narrowed. Trouble?
He raised a hand, stopping Sean and Susie from boarding the waiting car. Then he answered.
“Speak.”
His voice was low, controlled, dangerous.
Yvonne faltered, then quickly explained. “Mr. Gunn, where are you? Ms. Summers isn't well. | took her
temperature two hours ago-low-grade fever. The sterile ward hasn't been entered, | checked the surveillance. No
one cclose. | fear her burns are infected again.”
Baron's expression eased a fraction.
‘I understand. Keep her stable. I'll be back immediately. The infections won't stop until surgery. I'll arrange it
soon.”
‘Yes, Mr. Gunn.”
She hesitated before hanging up.
“What else?”
Yvonne drew a sharp breath. “I... | have news about my sister.”
Baron's eyes flickered, then cooled. “Later. When | return.”
“Yes, sir.”
The call ended.
Baron's gaze darkened, thoughts sharpening to a blade’s edge. Phantom’s death, her failure to protect Natalie...
none of it had ever sat right with him. He had let silence mask his suspicion, waiting.
Now Yvonne's words confirmed it-his instincts had not been wrong.
Someone had betrayed them. Someone had hurt Natalie.

And Baron would not let it go.
He slipped the phone into his pocket and crouched before his children.

“Alright, little ones. Daddy’s taking you to see Mommy. But you need to be prepared. She went through a terrible
fire. Her body... it's covered in burns. She may not look the way you imagine. She may even look frightening.”
Sean and Susie’s wide eyes fixed on him, serious now.
“If you feel scared, tell me. I'll take you out right away. But you cannot scream, or cry, or disturb her. Do you
understand?”
Baron's voice was gentle-but beneath it lay steel.
And both children understood, as only his children could, that this was the moment their father was at his most
dangerous.
