EDEN
I’M QUIET AS JW LEADS me into his house, which happens to be just around the block from Jenny and Judge’s. My thoughts are scattered and it leaves me feeling numb. I’ve never considered myself a weak person. I stand my ground, I’m not afraid to give my opinion, I always fight for what I believe in, and I’ve never let a man treat me like shit.
I feel weak right now though. Diego makes me feel weak and helpless. No matter what I do, I’m going to lose. If I run, I’ll be leaving everyone I care about behind, including JW and the others in Malus I’ve begun to think of as friends, for God knows how long. JW was right earlier. There’s no way Diego will give up looking for me. He may go back to San Antonio when he realizes I’m no longer here, but it’ll never be safe for me to return, and I’ll always be looking over my shoulder.
If I stay, I run the risk of someone else getting hurt. Even if JW and his brothers manage to capture him, there’s a chance one of them will get hurt, possibly even killed, in the process. And if they aren’t, Diego is part of the Tomas cartel. He’s Emiliano’s son. He’ll no doubt send goons to Malus, and I don’t want to imagine the havoc they would cause.
“Hey,” JW calls. I blink and look up at him, briefly remembering him walking me to his room and sitting me on his bed before he left the room. I didn’t even see him come back. “What’s going through your mind?”
I drop my eyes to his shirt where I pick at an invisible string. “Just how stupid I was to ever get involved with Diego. And that no matter what I do, someone is bound to get hurt.”
He grabs my chin and forces my head up. His brows are slashed down into a frown. “You need to have more faith in me. Diego’s done. He won’t be hurting anyone else. That, I can promise you.”
I want to believe him. I want so badly to take his word and run with it, but there’s no way he can guarantee it. There are no guarantees in life. It’s unpredictable, no matter how much we may try to make it otherwise.
“Come on. It’s early, but I’m exhausted, and you look dead on your feet.”
It’s dark, but it’s early. Only about nine o’clock or so. He’s right, though. I’m exhausted to my bones. Earlier, after the initial shock of seeing the picture of the girl, JW called in Trouble and Emo. Remi and Grace came with them. After Jenny gave the women a short run down of what happened, she quickly changed the subject. I think she knew I was on the verge of a mental break down and needed a distraction. The four men sequestered themselves into Judge’s office and talked about… I don’t know what, but I know they were planning something and it had to do with Diego.
