“Wait, do you mean? That he is rogue? He is not part of the cartel anymore?”
“No, he still has the last name. He is still part of the cartel, however they won’t help him. What he has, he has because of his name and there are still a few fucks willing to put themselves on the line for him. I would say at most he has one hundred people, half of which would drop their weapons before even one bullet flew. They are there because they have been around him from the very beginning, but Alejandro doesn’t have the loyalty that he thinks he has. If you guys can cut the head off this snake, I can guarantee that there will be no backlash. The rest of the Vilanuevas family know that they can’t kill him themselves.”
“It makes sense.” Keeley, the one that I figured out was Wire’s ol’ lady spoke up from where she was standing with her baby Lily. “There have been quite a few times that Da has just let one of his family die; saying he was too strong for his bridges, that they were doing too much and the family didn’t need that type of heat.”
“What, you think Alejandro has been excommunicated or some shit like that? Abandoned?”
“Yes, unless he turns a remarkable profit from what he is trying to do here, he is on his own.” I shrugged and looked over to Keeley who nodded as well. I was going to have to get her story, I knew that she was part of the mob but I didn’t know which one. That was going to be a fucking story to hear.
“How the fuck do we figure this shit out.”
“Attack them.” I said calmly. “I know in the beginning when we first got here, if there was an attack on Alejandro, the amount of reinforcements that he received was ridiculous. His brothers would send more people than I had ever seen. Right before we made it out of the house, there were no more reinforcements. If you can attack him and his brothers don’t retaliate, he is free game.”
“How can we do it without getting anyone killed?” Alex asked me.
“Well, I know a few of his drop houses. It’s just money, drugs and girls. A few guards but most of them are high out of their minds. You could probably just knock them out and take down the house.”
“How much money we talking?” Clean asked from the side.
“I don’t know, I wasn’t part of the count. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was just thousands. Could be hundreds of thousands. But they need rooms for the cash.”
“Yeeee! That is what I am talking about! Let’s get us some duckets!” The man with the cowboy hat yelled out as he turned to walk towards the door.
“Fuck that, how do we know she isn’t leading us all into a trap. She said it herself she was Vilanuevas head bitch. This could all be a fucking trick.” Rooster said as he tried to stare me down. I looked away, slightly, the amount of crazy in that man’s eyes were just not normal.
“It’s not a trick. That man took everything away from me and my sister. He destroyed any chance Angel would ever have at a normal life. Someone like that cannot be helped or healed, he needs to be gone. I will come with you if you need further proof.” I tried to take a step in the direction of Rooster but Alex tightened his grip on my waist.
“The fuck you are.” He growled in my ear.
“My love if this is the way to make sure that this is over with than I have to go. I trust you; I know you won’t let anything happen to me.”
“Wait, we have to get our shit together, we can’t just walk up on a stash house with our dicks in our hands. Mikki would you be able to tell us what the place looks like?”
“I can do you one better, do you have a map? I’ll point each of them out for you.”
“Each! How fucking many are there?” Clean hopped excitedly from one foot to the next, just like a little kid waiting for candy.
“I know of sixteen stash houses, don’t know if there are any others after I left.”
“Fuck me.” Alex said behind me. I know he wasn’t talking to me but I couldn’t let the moment pass me by.
“Right here? Or can we make it to the bedroom?” I turned and said over my shoulder. I reached up on my tippy toes and nipped at his lip. This beautiful man had a way of turning me on with just a look. I couldn’t stand how wet he got me just from staring at me, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
He growled and tried to pull me closer into him.
“Oh, oh, I vote right here. I won’t even record it!” Tex called out.
Alex wrapped his arms around me and pulled me down. He wasn’t about to give anyone a free show. Especially someone who was known to be a bit perverted like Tex.
“Rile up?” Mack said, his head shaking a bit from side to side. No one was quite sure as to what he was saying. I had learned that Mack had a horrific brain injury and there were times that what he wanted to say was not what came out of his mouth.
“He said,” I turned to see Maven behind us all, “Round up!”
With a slight smile Mack nodded his head.
“Yeah!! Let’s round everyone the fuck up!” Clean reached over the bar and pulled out a bottle of Jack Daniels and drank straight from the bottle. Everyone was ecstatic, but for the life of me I couldn’t see why. They were about to take on the fight of their lives and they were celebrating.
I turned to Alex and could see that he was smiling too.
“What the hell is
