Yay! I’ve got so many prompts! First up, have you seen that TikTok trend where a kid gets in trouble for sitting in The Boss’ chair, but then they realize that the kid is The Boss’. That, but with Owen! He’d get so cocky and believe himself to be untouchable because of his mother, but then Mama Shaw arrives and puts him in his place.
I have no idea what trend you're talking about, sorry friend. I don't use Tik Tok
But it is really funny to imagine Owen getting way too cocky and Mama Shaw having to put him in his place!

Owen smirked harder as he popped a hard candy into his mouth and sucked hard on it. He leaned back in the large, plush chair he was sitting in and looked across the large, mahogany desk
Standing in front of him was one of the largest crime bosses in London. Normally, the man would be towering over people and striking fear into their hearts
But in front of Owen, the man's head was bowed and his hands were shaking as he balled them up
Owen wasn't going to lie and say he wasn't tempted to make the man kneel before him. But he wouldn't take it that far. Not yet, at least
"Tell me, Brindly, how's business?"
"It's fine, Mr. Shaw." The man forced out from behind clenched teeth. The response only made Owen smirk harder
"Really?" Owen hummed in thought, rolling the candy in his mouth. Nonchalantly, he lifted his legs and propped them up on the desk. "I've heard from a few sources that you've been struggling to pay back what you owe me."
Well, owes his mother specifically. Everyone knew in the UK, if you wanted to do any serious business in the criminal world, you needed to pay a fee to Queenie Shaw
Owen kindly took it upon himself to collect a few of those fees personally
"Not at all." The man hissed. "I don't know what those liars are telling you, but me and my boys are doing just fine."
Owen raised an unimpressed eyebrow at the simmering anger just below the man's skin. It was just too much fun to mess with these stuck up, older criminals. They always had a certain pride that bruised far too easily. Far too tempting for Owen
"Then, I hope that you let me know if these rumors ever become reality." Owen smiled warmly, but his eyes sent a silent warning
The man nodded stiffly before turning on his heel and storming out. Owen didn't hide his snort of amusement at all as he watched the small temper tantrum
"Kim, who's next?" Owen called out, looking over to one of his mother's goons. The woman was always around in London to keep track of the family business when his mother was out of town
"I believe there's someone of a very high status that would like to see you." A dry voice called out instead of Kim's high pitched one
Owen jerked around in the chair and let his feet hit the ground. Standing in the doorway was his mother's right hand man: Jeffrey. Who didn't look one bit amused by the situation
"Give them my deepest apologies then." Owen said smoothly. "I'm quite busy."
"Don't you dare give me that kind of lip, you little whelp."
Owen flinched slightly as he heard his mother's voice
Jeffrey stepped further into the room, allowing Queenie Shaw to step into the room. She looked extremely unamused
"Get the bloody hell out of my chair, Oh." The snapped
"Of course, mother."

I hope you enjoyed friend!
