Chapter 27
Lucian
My blood boils. I can’t believe Ralf is extorting Mason like this in order to get me to do something so dangerous and against everything I have been trying to get away from.
Ever since I was given the run between Chicago to Canada for drugs, I haven’t bothered anyone. I haven’t given anyone any attitude and I’ve kept to myself.
Now, I’m back on their fucking radar and so is Mason.
How did Mason get on their radar? How the fuck did they find out about him? I don’t understand how Ralf would have found out about him unless he’s been following me.
Or… does he have a spy inside my club? Does he have a spy inside my syndicate? Does he know what I’ve been doing inside my club and syndicate because if that’s the case... someone’s going to die.
The only people who know anything about my club and syndicate are Raul and Trina.
It’s time to call an emergency meeting. I need to know what the fuck is going on and I need to put a stop to everything before it gets too late.
I help Katie off the floor, she limps along with me out of the hotel room. I know she’s struggling with everything going on and around her especially since she can’t do anything to help herself.
“What are you going to do, Luca?” She questions.
I shake my head with my arm around her waist. My heels clack against the tile flooring of the sleezy hotel. I don’t know what I’m going to do. The only thing I know is the fact I have to figure it out soon. The sooner the better or someone’s going to die, and it could be me.
Death has always been around the corner since I was jumped into the 3-1-3 Gang and I knew it was a matter of time before I was behind bars or pushing up daffodils.
“Katie, wait until we get to my car. Once we get to the car, I’ll talk to you about everything.”
She nods.
It’s been three years since I saw the woman who tried to save me from the initiation from hell. I had been there the night she sold herself to Big Heavy to save another girl from being jumped into the gang because she didn’t know what else to do with her life. Her mom and dad were both pieces of shit.
People always wonder what gangsters, gangsters. It’s simple. We don’t have anything else to get out of the shitty situation of our home life. In my case, my brother is a piece of shit.
She limps along with me and holds onto me as much as she can.
Ralf comes running after us with a pissed off look on his face and fire in his eyes.
“What did you do?” I demand to Katie.
“I might have stolen his car keys and wallet!” She winces.
“Are you fucking kidding me? Are you trying to get me killed?”
She groans.
“Run as quick as you can into the bathroom. I need to call someone to come get us.”
I push us through the lobby into the bathroom available that’s closest to us. Once inside, she slumps over in the corner and begins to wheeze from the pain setting in from running.
I pull out my phone dial Raul. Once he answers, I demand for the help that I need. “I need the driver you’ve been using now.”
“Luca! Are you sure?”
“Did I ask you to ask me questions?”
“It’s Mason. We’ve been using Mason.”
“You’ve been using my new sub?”
