BIOLOGICAL SUPERCOMPUTER SYSTEM

(AN: Ok, guys; I went out of my comfort zone here. Let me know if you liked how I managed the situation.)

“AHH! AHH!”

Nathaniel was currently riding the girl that Glenn, Peter, and Achim had brought him. He would have had sex with Natasha usually, but since she wasn’t there, he asked for a girl, hoping to feel a little bit better after the deal was done. The girl writhed beneath him, giving him a sense of power and control.

“AHH!” The girl moaned as Nathaniel slammed her against his body repeatedly while pounding into her from behind.

The three looked at Nathaniel with a neutral look but were actually very displeased. It wasn’t like they didn’t ever do something like that; they were still the sons of very important people inside the Mambas, who were strictly tied to the Crystal Cross Gang, and those were everyday occurrences, but they were 18, and Nathaniel was only 16. They couldn’t exactly say no, though, or Nathaniel could throw a fit that could put their families in danger.

After ten minutes of going like this, Nathaniel actually had enough. The girl’s moans started to fade as Nathaniel thrust harder and harder until he finally released himself. He felt a brief moment of satisfaction but was soon overwhelmed by his usual anger.

He yelled, “Get the hell out of here!” as he pushed the naked woman away. She fell to the ground, grabbed her clothes, and hurried out of the room.

“Bring me more champagne!” Nathaniel shouted.

After five minutes, another good-looking girl brought in a small cart with buckets of ice containing four thousand New Dollar champagne bottles.

Then, a young-looking man brought in a food trolley full of glasses and snacks and put it next to the table in front of Nathaniel and the three men.

The girl then opened the champagne bottle, took an empty glass, and started pouring its contents inside. “Stop wasting my fucking time! Hurry up!” She hurriedly gave the glass to Nathaniel and then served the other three men.

“Fuck off!” Nathaniel said it was clear to anyone that he was in a bad mood. The woman quickly apologized and scurried away, sensing Nathaniel’s anger. The three men exchanged uncomfortable glances and felt embarrassed; the woman murmured an apology and swiftly left the room.

Nathaniel sighed irritably and downed the drink in one gulp, hoping to numb his fraying nerves. The air turned tense and hostile as soon as the words left his mouth. His outburst was met with silence. The men were unsure of how to react. Sensing the discomfort, he forced a strained smile and gestured for them to continue.

After the two waiters left and the four men were alone, they started chatting.

“Hey, I was wondering…” Peter said. “How is it to join the Red Palace?” he asked Nathaniel. “It’s nothing much,” Nathaniel replied. “It is still full of losers and spineless guys… My father even gave me a present when I joined since he was told it was a prestigious place, but we were both disappointed…”

“Yeah, you are too strong for the pricks there…” Achim said.

“Yeah, they definitely amount to nothing compared to you!” Glenn added.

“Shut up now… I don’t want to listen to this bullshit…” Nathaniel spoke, and the others remained silent. The young man observed the three older men, who were still in military school in their last year. He then had a strange fit of curiosity and asked them a question.

“I’m curious to know. What are you all going to do once the military ends?” Nathaniel knew that rich people could pay the military a certain amount of money to avoid military conscription. The three men in front of him had enough money to do so, and like most people in their positions, they didn’t want to waste time inside the militaries; Nathaniel included. The three didn’t like Nathaniel’s tone or words, but they swallowed their anger and replied immediately.

“My dad wants me to open some companies to money launder… “Achim said.

“Ah, you will keep working with us then…” Nathaniel said. “What about you?” Nathaniel asked Glenn, who replied, “My dad wants me to make a mercenary team in Etrium and establish some links with the local gangs. Besides, since Etrium’s economy heavily revolves around thaids’ body parts, we could earn much money there.”

“What about you, Nathaniel?” Peter asked the young man.

Nathaniel didn’t even have to think about it and immediately replied. “I will take my dad’s place, obviously. I already have some ideas to expand the family business and would like to collaborate more with the Crystal Cross Gang…”

“It looks like we will have a promising new leader then! Haha!” Peter interjected.

“Indeed, with Nathaniel’s promising future strength, I doubt there will be problems once he takes over the Mambas!” Glenn added.

Peter let out a chuckle before stating his opinion. “It’s good to have a strong successor in place to carry on the legacy.” Glenn nodded in agreement, “Nathaniel has all the qualities needed to lead the Mambas to even greater success.” After Peter made a witty comment, he turned serious. “I have complete faith in Nathaniel’s leadership abilities.”

Glenn nodded and said, “He has already shown great potential, and I’m excited to see what he can achieve as the head of the Mambas.” Peter laughed before saying, “It’s going to be tough to top our success, but I think Nathaniel is up for the challenge.”

Glenn agreed, “He has a bright future ahead of him, and I have no doubt he’ll take the Mambas to new heights.” As the conversation shifted to Nathaniel’s potential, Peter said, “He’ll put us all to shame with his leadership skills!” Glenn chuckled.

“Enough…” Nathaniel said, slightly annoyed by the three men’s bootlicking.

“What about you?” Nathaniel then asked Peter.

“I will enlist in the army,” he replied.

“Why?” Nathaniel asked, as his reply greatly surprised him.

“Dad has some friends inside the military; they can ensure me a commanding position, and having more men close to that mother fucker, General Becker, will be good to keep them all in check.”

“Ok… I’m tired of this conversation; let’s change topics,” Nathaniel interjected, and the other three men immediately shut up. Nathaniel thought about his problems for a couple of seconds, and he thought that maybe the three older men could give him some insight into the matter.

“Say… What would you do if someone almost killed you by throwing a thaid horde at you?” .𝘤𝘰𝑚

The three were immediately left dumbfounded. The truth was that the attack on Erik and his friends was already circulating inside the city since one of the students that joined Erik’s large group talked to the media. They knew that whatever Nathaniel was asking was related to that incident.

“Are you referring to what happened to Red Palace’s last outing?” Glenn asked.

“Yes,” Nathaniel said in annoyance.

“Well, if it were me, I would try to get revenge as soon as possible,” Peter said. “Yeah, I agree…” Achim added. “Especially if I knew who it was, I would try to make him pay…”

This wasn’t something hard to understand; even Nathaniel would have done something like that, and having confirmation of this only made him suspect Erik more.

“Hey, I have a totally unrelated question for you lot. Is it possible to hack devices and make it appear like the device itself sent some messages and the like?”

“Why do you ask?” Glenn said.

“Mind your own business…” Nathaniel replied with a nasty tone.

Peter swallowed his anger and promptly replied: “Well, it is possible, but you should have a certain level of skill to do something like that. Some conditions must also be met…” he said.

“How do you know all this stuff?” Achim asked.

“I had fun with some friends of mine. We actually hacked a girl named Scarlet’s phone and stole all her naked pictures. We asked her to pay if she wanted to prevent us from sharing them online. We got a lot of money from that…” If Nathaniel had paid attention, he would have immediately understood that he was referring to Scarlet Calvert, New Alexandria’s mayor’s daughter.

This wasn’t something new for the mambas; they often did things like that to extort money, which was why Peter knew these people. He simply asked his father, and the young man quickly became friends with the hackers.

“How hard do you think it is to find and hire someone with such skills?” Nathaniel asked.

“Pretty easy for people who work in our field…” Peter replied.

“And for normal people?”

“Hard, but not impossible.”

All the information Peter was giving him gave Nathaniel more reason to think that Erik was behind all that was happening to him. He was sure the awakener saw him lure the monsters there, and that alone could be a reason for him to hire a hacker to humiliate him.

The problem was that he had no idea how he could do that. Hiring hackers to mess up his, Karl’s, and Natasha’s phones were not cheap. Amber could have given him the money, but even this was just speculation.

The three men weren’t sure what Nathaniel was asking as he was thinking this. However, being the sons of extremely cunning and ruthless people, they immediately understood that this wasn’t coincidental. Probably Nathaniel had something to do with the thaid attack, and the people to whom he did this were probably retaliating.

However, they didn’t ask him anything since they didn’t want to risk making him feel humiliated. The topic fell soon after, and the four guys spent the rest of the time partying.

They drank and ate, ending up being tipsy. They had to get up early the following day, so they decided they had enough, and it was time to go home.

The four men left the private room they spent the evening in and headed to the entrance while passing through a dance hall that still had the music blasting from the speakers.

It was hard to reach the entrance due to the sheer number of people drinking cocktails and dancing in the building. After a while, they finally reached the entrance and left the club. They stopped outside the club to light cigarettes, and Nathaniel called his limousine.

“The limo will be here in five minutes,” Nathaniel said.
