“Have you ever, at any time at all, and I mean any quantity at all, been involved in the sale of drugs to clients at the club?” “No, I haven't.” “Have you ever seen drug sales going down at the club?” “No, I have not..” “Have you ever been asked to transport drugs from any location to the other by the club management?” “No, I have not..” “Have you ever hidden any drugs in your underwear or-” “What kind of stupid question is that?” Mercedes had been taken from the airport, along with Ruby and Gabi, down to a local police station where she was being questioned by Freddy, the lackadaisical, lazy, and disinterested agent. She was distressed, and it seemed her baby could also feel her tension because he hadn't stopped crying since. She was trying to pat his back and calm him down while answering the questions she'd been asked when she'd gotten sick of it. “Listen, ma'am, I'm just doing my job.. I have to ask questions, even the uncomfortable ones, because you are a major

***LOS ANGELES, USA***“1..2..3.. Now!”The Los Angeles FBI, led by Mia and Riot, had surrounded Tequila for three long hours, watching the going-ins and coming-outs, working with the intel they had gotten from Frank, the insider snitch, and confirming the things he said. Today was supposed to be the meeting of the top distributors in the cartel, which Frank had said would be where they'd discuss the way forward for their organization.This, Frank had said, was the best time to bust them, because there was going to be too much evidence to nab them with illegal gun possession, cocaine possession, prison escapees, etc. Now, at exactly 8 am, Riot had sounded a call on her walkie-talkie to signal that they were to move in at that exact time, and all the agents had come out from their various places of hiding and disguise all over the surroundings of the strip club, with their guns drawn, and we're charging towards all the entrances to the club.Leading them were Riot and Mia, the ones wh

“Gabi, can you stop acting like a girl and be a man, for God's sake?”“Hey, I'm doing this for you, quit acting like you won't wince if I went any harder,” came the response.Ruby was sitting before Gabi as he tried to clean up her face which had been messed up by her fight with Les Latinas De La Muerte at the hospital, and her face was so fucked up that it scared Gabi to Ben touch it, even with the tissue, for fear that he would hurt her or further damage her. This fear had made him keep dabbing softly and inefficiently at her face instead of wiping the blood away, and Ruby had tolerated him enough.Mercedes, sitting in the same room as them, breastfeeding Junior, looked on and smiled at them, shaking her head.She'd gotten her joy back due to two major things; one, the birth of Junior, her long-awaited bundle of joy, and two, the promise her aunt, Aylla Pedro, had made to her when he said she would try to help Gio gain his freedom again.And so, feeling good again, she was able to c

***LOS ANGELES, USA***“Sign here, Frank..”Riot and Mia had pulled the necessary strings to get the documents that would exempt Frank Gallas from any investigations into Tequila when the people involved in the drug cartel were being arrested and rounded up.They had brought him to their office and he was now seated in an interrogation room which had a long table and a few chairs.They wanted to wrap up this case as soon as possible, nipping it in the bud before it would drag into weeks, months, and possibly, years... They had been briefed on how it had started as child's play under the original handlers, and how it had spiraled and developed into a dangerous, 'playing with fire’ situation because the previous handlers had failed to grab the situation by the scruff of the neck. It had resulted in deaths and many other eventualities which could have been avoided. And so, Mia and Riot were keen on avoiding the mistakes of their predecessors.“Well, hold on, I need to peruse the document

Upstairs at the hospital, there was chaos and fear; no one could leave, either with the elevators or the staircase, because the gunfire they'd been hearing had been going on downstairs and by the gate, in the same area where they were supposed to escape from. The gunfire had gone on for about thirty minutes and even when it ceased, they didn't dare to even attempt to step out.The only thing they could do was panic.The nurses and doctors who would normally be the ones telling patients to 'calm down’ were now the ones who were near tears. Everyone was now following their religious inclinations; the Pentecostals were praying to God/Jesus, the Catholics were praying to Mary, the Muslims were beseeching Allah, and the traditionalists were shedding tears of hopelessness to their gods.Gabi was probably the most panicky of the entire bunch, and not just because he had learned that Mercedes had given birth, but because he wasn't built for such high-pressure situations. He was sweaty and unc

***LOS ANGELES, USA***Mia Compton and Riot Langston were seated in Riot's Ford truck with the fellow who had accosted them at the coffee shop and listening to what he had to say.Mia was in the backseat, while Riot, who sat in the driver's seat, kept her full stare on the man in the front passenger seat as he spoke:“My name is Frank Gallas... I worked at Tequila for many years as one of their major distributors-”“Tequila doesn't deal in wholesaling drinks, so what the fuck are you talking about, 'major distributor’?” Mia impatiently cut in, not trusting this fellow one bit.As she said this, Riot touched her hand gently, as though to say 'Calm Down’. This singular action sent shivers down Mia's spine and made her obediently seal her lips. Riot had gained such a heavy influence over her in such a short period that even she couldn't explain or justify it.“When I say I was a distributor, ma'am,” Frank continued with a half smile on his face, “I didn't mean of drinks... I mean of drug

Kelvin’s POVKilling all of them that challenged my authority feels far better than I ever imagined. It has been so long since I dared to put them in their place. The silent shocks on their faces sends a different kind of thrilling emotion down my spine. “Alpha Kelvin. Thank you for your leadership. We dusky appreciate.” Another one of them says, beads of sweat are dropping from his forehead. “As expected. And I must thank the rest of you as I would like to assume you would be good followers and will consider the interest of the members of the clan in a situation like this the next time.”“Yes Alpha Kelvin. We most definitely will.”“Good. Invite the members of the upper council in as you leave. Remember, not a word should escape the lips of anyone of you. I will not hesitate to fish that person out no matter what it would cost me and that is not an empty threat.”“Yes Alpha Kelvin. Thank you.” They all scurry out of the royal chambers and silence envelopes all of us again. “Fion

Lila’s POVI sit there my legs clamped together. I always suspected Elliot’s confidence, aura and all. To think that she been through so much in the hands of Queen Aurora is quiet devastating. “Get me my sword.” His eyes are dark and his thoughts unfathomable. Yet for some reason, there is a smile on Eliot’s face. Almost like she has always wanted this. Sarah looks horrified and keeps trying to exchange glances with Aurora. Aurora pays her no attention. “May the Alpha of this clan live long.”“End it and take your seats. Some of you want me dead already. I don’t need your undeserving accolades. We are heading straight into the meeting.”The members of the lower council are surprised at how he is addressing them. I can see it on their faces. “Alpha Kelvin.”“Go straight to the point.”Silence stretches in the hall. “Fine then. Since nobody is willing to break the ice, I will. I was informed that the members of my council were causing a ruckus at my entrance. May I know why my bel

Kevin’s POVI swallow hard as I try to process everything. “How did they get a wind of this Aurora?” I fold my fists into each other. “I thought things were going to get complicated and considering the interest of the clan, I thought to make it known to very few elders so justice could be served the right way.”“So you do admit it venomous snake in human form that this was all of a setup?” Belarus’s daughter immediately speaks up, with a scoff on her lips. “You would not dare to pin words on the Queen! She never conceded to such.”“Another witch in disguise. Just what pathetic sorry offer did she have you make before getting you to do all of this?” She laughs in a very sarcastic way. “You think I’m you, Elliot that was sold? I walked into this palace of my own accord and my own will.”“All of that for what? To be given a position as the head of the maids? Can you see just how stupid and foolish you have indeed become? If you are going to have an argument with any maid in this clan

Kelvin’s POV“You Lila are plotting treason against the clan you are supposed to be building?” Aurora immediately speaks up. I squint my eyes as I try to finger out what exact game the both of them are up to. “You. What is your name?”“Alpha Kelvin, my name is Precious.”“I expect you to say more than that. You and your gang have successfully ruined my breakfast and my morning with nonsense. Don’t annoy me further. What is Sarah going on about?”She stares at Lila, Aurora’s personal maid, Fio- something, I can’t recall and two other ladies before placing her eyes back on her feet. “They were planning treason against the clan.” “Look, Precious, I guarantee you that the next time you drop such stupid suspense, I will make sure to suspend your name from the book of living members in this clan. Go straight to the point and spill all of it.”“Yesterday, after Lila had finished with her official duties, we had a discussion. Elliot was advising her to run away, she accused Queen Aurora o

Lila’s POVShe walks into the restroom and I turn back to stare at Fiona. She shakes her head twice and I know whatever communication we are going to be having in this space will have to be with our eyes and our ears. I turn my head around the room looking for the royal regalia. I have no idea what it even looks like. I know, I have seen the both of them, Alpha Kelvin and Queen Aurora wearing the regalia, I have no idea if it is a single piece or clothings arranged together to have that look. Fiona’s eyes widen when my gaze lands on a particular spot. I walk forward and I reach out to the chair, different colors at least four are in the bag, the bag is sealed, white and transparent. I signify tearing the bag and Fiona nods so at least, now, I know, I’m not in the wrong to rip the bag apart. The regalias are all the same but with different colors so I’m heavily guessing each color for a particular day. I lay all of the regalia on the bed and I start pointing at each of them. Fion

Aurora’s POV“I thought the both of you would dare me and leave. And why are you coming now? When I requested your presence way earlier than this time?” I scrunch my face in disgust. “Pardon me Queen Aurora but Lila and I were here not too long after your request for us, we had knocked earlier and there was no reply which resulted to us in standing here as we could not just barge into your room, that would be a sign of disrespect.” Fiona immediately speaks up. Slowly but surely, this girl is starting to become a pest. I had hoped to pick on this stupid Lila as I knew she would be too dumb to not fall into my trap and then comes Fiona. “Fine. I’d take it that the both of you are spilling the truth and I really did not hear the knock. But as I said, I would love to take it that the both of you are saying the truth. You can come in.” I walk away from my room giving them space to come inside. “Thank you Queen Aurora.” They both bow and come in. “You, the most recent maid, remind me
