Romero was not going to wait any more. This place was boring and his men were getting dangerous. Drinking rum all day and night was only good enough for a few days—not the weeks they had been there. They needed some release, some action. And if they didn’t get it against someone else, Romero feared they might get it against him.

He had told Cadena as much, but the gringo’s lackey forbade him to take the boys on a raid, insisting that they all stay together at the island and wait for El Jefe’s arrival. But Romero had already decided he was taking the old steamer to Porto Bello and they were going to get some plunder and some women, one way or another. To hell with Cadena and his old womanly fear of the yanqui.

At two in the morning, after Cadena and the others had passed out from rum, Romero’s crew took the old steamer out through the channel in the moonlight. He had planned to hit Porto Bello just before dawn, when the inhabitants were still sleeping.

As they made their way from the island he thought he heard Cadena shout something. Too late, he thought with a smile.
