Three days of it was enough.
Three days of good morning with nothing behind it and mugs left outside doors without knocking and corridor passes where everyone nodded and kept walking. Three days of dinners where the conversation stayed shallow and nobody reached across the distance.
I had asked for the distance and they had given it to me. The wall was mine and they had simply accepted it, and somehow that acceptan

THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION An Agreement
Ace's PovHe had an answer ready immediately and I noticed that, not clearly at the time, but somewhere underneath the conversation.He had not said let me think about how this could work. He had known exactly what he needed before I had finished asking the question.I told myself it was because he had thought it through already. That was what a person did when they cared about helping someone."Get me in," he said. "One time. That is all I need."I looked at him. "And then what.""And then I get you out. You go to Marcus's family, you stay there until things settle, and you figure out the next step from a place that is not inside that building.""And you just want to see the inside of the building.""I want to know the layout so I can move us both safely. If I go in blind I cannot protect you."
THE MAFIA'S BLOODY POSSESSION The Weight
Sergei's PovHis message came through at half past two in the afternoon.Two words. I need help.I sat at the kitchen table and looked at them for a long time.This was the moment. The thing I had been building toward for three weeks. Ace Rivera had closed off from the twins, had decided the story I fed him was true, had decided the coldness he was reading was confirmation, and now he was reaching out to the one person he thought had no stake in any of it.I typed back and arranged the meeting and put the phone down.Then I sat with it.My daughter had been in that room for thirty one days with her lamp and her three books and thirty second calls every three days. Darnell had what he needed to keep me moving and I had been moving, one contact at a time, one seed at a time, and now the movement had brought me here.Here was using a twenty two year old kid who had done nothing wrong to get two men killed.I had told myself the job was the job for long enough that the phrase had lost me

Ace's PovThree days of it was enough.Three days of good morning with nothing behind it and mugs left outside doors without knocking and corridor passes where everyone nodded and kept walking. Three days of dinners where the conversation stayed shallow and nobody reached across the distance.I had asked for the distance and they had given it to me. The wall was mine and they had simply accepted it, and somehow that acceptance was the part I could not get past.I had told myself I did not care. I had said it plainly and clearly and I had meant it, or I had meant to mean it, and then three days of being given exactly what I asked for had made something in my chest do something I was not prepared for.It was not anger. I could have worked with anger.It was quieter than that. It sat behind my sternum and did not have a name and I could not reason my way a

If I go in blind I cannot protect you."It was a reasonable answer. It was the kind of thing that made sense if you were thinking about logistics. I stood there on the street corner and I looked at his face. I thought about the w

Ivan’s PovI found Nikolai in his office and closed the door.He looked up from his desk. "I heard," he said."How much.""Enough." He set his pen down. "Sit down."I sat. "He asked about the end date. He asked about a man we were seen with o

Ace’s PovI had been holding it for two days and then I stopped holding it.It was not a plan. It was not even a decision exactly. Ivan came into the library at seven in the evening and said dinner was ready and something in the ordinary ease of it, the way he said it like everything was normal, ju
