ALEK

Isit down across from Andrei and wait for the meeting to start. The screen pops up, and there is Gray. It’s been over a month since I last saw him. I’ve officially been made a full partner in the Lucky Dice Casino. I’m aware Jimmy Duncan was killed in July. I don’t know who did it or why, and I don’t really care. As long as he’s gone, I’m okay with that.

The hacker messed up recently, and I’ve discovered a way to catch them. On the next screen is Pakhan Vladimir. He’s involved because the Russian Cardroom has also been hacked and had some issues.

“Okay, this is what we have so far. Tell them, Dmitri,” Andrei says.

“Lyric and Ainsley Duncan are Jimmy Duncan’s daughters. He had an affair with Clare before she was with Bronwyn, making them Lennon’s half siblings. Lyric is the hacker. Ainsley hires all the help. They talked Lennon into giving them the money to cover the costs. It started out as a revenge scheme against the men who sleep around and father kids but don’t care for them.”

“They are all against the family,” Vladimir says.

“Pakhan, I understand that, but Lennon is mine. She is becoming my wife, and I will pay penance. As for why they targeted the Lucky Dice, it was because Duncan told them Gray stole it from him,” Dmitri continues.

“But I didn’t.” Gray jumps in.

“I know. Lennon knows that now. She said she hasn’t been giving them money since Bronwyn cut her off.”

“Alek, we have something we want you to look at. It will explain why we took the action we did with Duncan. It needed to end,” Andrei says as Mikhail slides a flash drive over to me. I slip it into my pocket.

“I had to,” he says softly, but his voice is gruff and full of emotion, something he very rarely shows.

I’m sure I know what this is about. For years, we’ve suspected that Duncan was associated with the murder of my father. But could he have had something to do with Mikhail’s parents too?

We continue our meeting, sharing our thoughts about what Lennon and her sisters did. They are now wanted by the other organized crime families, not just for the hacking, but for creating the issues with the runners on opposing family properties. It’s as if they wanted a war to start between all of us. There is still a possibility it could happen. Every day is a battle to not go to war with the gangs trying to get into the gambling game too.

“This hacker, Lyric, hasn’t done any major damage, but the sister did by hiring the runners and making the complaints to the commission,” I tell them.

“Get them under control. I have to go,” Vladimir hangs up.

“I have a plan to catch this hacker. When we get her, I want to talk to her first,” I tell them. I’m fairly certain it’s my woman, and I’m going to pull a Dmitri and protect her if I can.
