“We’re leaving as soon as this meeting’s over with,” I respond.
I sit back in the seat, letting out a deep breath. I need to know how deep Ben is involved with the Black Market Railroad before I go after him with guns drawn and get Dia out. After ten years, she might want nothing to do with me, but I’ve waited long enough to reclaim my life and my woman. I’m not waiting much longer.
Kayne finishes his meeting, and we all file out of Church. I’m wearing a hole in the floor, pacing erratically back and forth, waiting for some information to either confirm my gut instincts or settle the irrational thoughts in my mind. I pull out my phone and dial Chainz.
“Are they willing to deal?” Chainz asks.
“They’re looking for dirt now, but this shit is more serious than we thought. They almost busted a nut when I mentioned Black Market Railroad.”
“Brace yourself, Tank, this will not be an easy fight. Hound is turning up some dark shit with his research.” I grit my teeth, waiting for what I know is coming next. “If Ben is involved with this, and we go after him, Dia might be in serious trouble.”
“I won’t let that happen. We get her out first,” I growl into the phone.
“We’re working on a plan. We’ll bring it to a vote when you get back.”
“The sooner the better.” I disconnect the call and shove the phone in my cut, turning to Cobra and Reaper. The lump in my throat stops me from forming words. I just shake my head and they know; things are getting heavy.
Kayne’s jaw is ticking and there’s a fire in his eyes that sets me back a step when he marches over, shoving a piece of paper in my face. “Are you playing some kind of sick fucking joke?”
I look at the paper, and see red. I was right. “No joke, brother. This is what I needed.” My fingers curl around the paper, squeezing it in my hand.
“This proves Ben Cross is in deep with Steam and the Russian asshole Mikhail Vladimir,” Kayne tells us.
I turn to Cobra and Reaper. “We need to get Dia out of there.” My thoughts are like a runaway train. I’m ready to blow.
“Chains is working on it, brother. We need to get back now.” Reaper tries to calm me down, but nothing can settle this rage boiling in my blood. I’ve never been good at containing my anger and now that it’s confirmed this is more than a jealous rage, I’m ready to kill that motherfucker and take back what has always been mine.
