CHAPTER 2

THE BOSS

Rat-a-tat-tat-tat

Rat-a-tat-tat-tat

My heart sinks at the sound of each bullet fired. “What the fuck?” I can’t wrap my head around it. One minute I’m throwing the party of the year and then the next thing I know my entire estate is under siege. Bullets and bodies are flying everywhere. My men counterattack and hustle me to the estate’s panic room. What’s going on? Whose fucking balls sag this low to try to pull this shit off tonight—of all nights?

The Vazquez brothers.

Shit. The very thought of them being the masterminds sets my blood on fire. Why did I go against my better judgment and bring those two snakes into my inner circle? I know fucking better—but the Sinaloa and the Zetas cartels have all but boxed me in; strong-arming connects, destroying my distribution and turning my own men against me. Bottom line: they have my dick in a vise and I had to start thinking outside of the box if I want to survive.

The drug game has changed over the years. There is no longer honor among thieves and killers. There is no respect for families and tradition with this new generation of degenerates. The wars are now fought with heavily armed militias that practice scorched-earth tactics and strike fear in the heart of everyone from clients to law enforcement and even politicians.

I’m not a fool. I know what’s up. I can feel the walls closing in on me. One by one, my connects have dried up. However, I keep the illusion going and had devised a plan to combine forces with another cartel. Even that is difficult. The old guard is being slaughtered, jailed, or running scared.

Hell. I’ve even thought about cutting my losses and getting out.

Then they killed my Bella—the love of my life. I was a nobody and I had nothing before I met her. It was because of her I was able to build this empire. In the back of my mind I always knew that there would be a hell of a price to pay for the lives I’ve taken or ruined. And yet, I was still caught off guard when the devil took his due and mowed down my wife right in front of my daughter and me.

I’ve relived the moment where she lay in my arms, bloodied and struggling to breathe. I begged her not to leave me, but it did no good. A merciless God refused to answer my prayers.

But I still have a piece of her: Cataleyna. She is the sole reason I wake up every morning. The world that I fought to give Bella, I now aim to leave to my daughter. Impulsively, I reached out to the Vazquez cartel. The patriarch, Alejandro Vazquez, had been killed in a car bomb two years back, but his sons, Tomas and Carlos, have taken over and not only managed to hold their ground, but made some surprising gains in members and distribution against the Sinaloas. The history between us is a bit tricky.
