“Why are you doing this?” Selena asked. She was in a car and the driver’s seat was Lydia who seemed focused on the road. She had one hand on the steering wheel while the other was a gun pointing directly at Selena’s abdomen. If she made any false move, she was going to end up dead. “Why wouldn’t I?” Lydia asked. “You have what I want, and apparently it’s only you who can read the map.”Selena was puzzled by this. The first time she had heard of the map was when her father spoke to her just before he was taken away. She had no idea where the map led to or how to read it. Lydia and Viper Don were in for a big disappointment. “I hate to break it to you, but I can’t read the map,” she said nonchalantly. “I don’t even know where it leads to.”Lydia swerved the steering wheel to the right dodging a speeding truck. She chuckled after that which had Selena sort of confused. “All you need is a little bit of inspiration, and you will know,” she said. Selena didn’t speak after that. That wa

Viper Don smiled widely as he watched Lydia step into the room. Recruiting Lydia turned out to be a better plan than he had initially thought. She had done the job she had been asked to do impeccably, which was impressive. It was safe to say that there was no doubt that she was his best work in recent months. Standing still beside her was Selena Rhoades, who looked particularly frightened to see him. Viper Don could vividly remember pulling the trigger and boring a hole into her father’s head. It was sad that she was going to go through the same thing. He hated thieves, and he was going to make sure that he wiped out all of them, including their families. It was the only punishment deserving of them. “Did you bring what I asked for?” He asked, looking at her left hand, which was clutching into a box. Lydia gave him a sinister smile. She took away her gun from Selena and shoved it behind her belt. She walked towards him with the box in both of her hands. “You bet I did.”Viper Don

Deputy Behrens washed his face in the faucet before looking at his reflection in the mirror. His hands were trembling as he gazed at them. He had messed up badly. His secret was now out. Eric and Adam now knew that he was the mole. He was lucky to have made it out alive with Eric coming in to take him by surprise. Never did he know that Adam would be the one to figure everything out. It had all happened in a flash. Behrens knew that he was in trouble ever since he had seen Eric with the file from the first murder case many years ago. He thought he had hidden that case file perfectly. How they had found it was still a mystery to him. But none of that mattered now. He had been caught, and it was only a matter of file before the news spread throughout the precinct. What would he do? Where could he go? He had no clue. Going back to meet Viper Don would attract attention to them and ruin their plans. But that didn’t matter. He had to inform them that their plan was in jeopardy and they w

Roman stared at his chest which was filled with stitches in the mirror. He wondered if he was capable of going through with the plan tonight. Did he have the strength to fight Viper Don? If he lost tonight, he was as good as dead. There would be no coming back from this. Viper Don would have everything that he wanted and not even he will be able to stop him then. If he had to do anything, tonight was the night. Roman clenched his jaws and wore his undershirt buttoning it up. He picked up his suit jacket and wore it next. Now he was ready. He looked gorgeous for tonight’s occasion. His black hair was combed backward and his silver eyes shone as he stared at himself in the mirror. This was all that he wanted. This could be his last night. Or this could be the night of his elevation. It all depended on the outcome. Roman walked downstairs and found Ben stacking a black duffel bag with guns and ammunition. They were not messing around tonight. Ben felt he had something to prove. Befor

“Did you hear that?” Adam asked as he cocked his gun. Eric clenched his jaws and nodded. He was staring at the estate now where the sound of a gunshot had come from. Something was going on there, and they had to go in and find out what it was. They were cops. It was in their nature to respond to the sound of gunfire. “Are you sure Behrens isn’t going undercover to solve this case?”Eric turned to Adam in shock. “This guy tried to kill you about three hours ago, and here you are still trying to support him?”Adam stared at his gun before turning to Eric and shrugging his shoulders. “All I’m saying is that we need to be sure about what we are doing.”Eric shook his head. He didn’t have time for this. There could be people in there who could need their help. There was no way he was going to sit here and argue about which side Behrens was truly on. He opened the door and stepped out of it. “You could sit here and think about them while I go in and help people that actually need sav
