* * * * *

Angelo went to see his mother, sitting down to breakfast and finalizing a date to have dinner with Gabe, before he drove over to the garage his uncle used as his hangout spot.

He’d deliberately stayed away from Carlos when the man got sprung, choosing to order his men to keep tabs on him instead. They hadn’t met face-to-face in years. Angelo always feared he’d lose his cool and beat his uncle down with his bare knuckles for all the pain Carlos perpetrated on him and his family over the years. The wounds were still there in his mother’s eyes, haunting her day and night.

He sat in the SUV across the street from Carlos’ garage, windows rolled up as he watched the men standing at the entrance. Their casual stance and light banter didn’t fool him. They were the gatekeepers, the bulge in the waistbands of their baggy jeans letting him know just how strapped they were. He turned off Jay-Z’s 99 Problems and sat back, taking a deep breath to calm the knots in his stomach.

Those knots weren’t for Carlos. No, they were for the memories staring into his eyes would resurrect and Angelo needed to prepare himself. He emptied his pockets of everything but his cell phones, turned up the collar on his wool coat and hopped out the car.

Probably should have told Gabe how I feel about him . Angelo pulled on black leather gloves as he hurried across the street. The loud voices and laughter stopped. Men eased their hands into waistbands, clutching their pieces no doubt, and he held his hands up, palms spread.

Walking into the lion’s den with no backup, no protection. No one but Gabe knew he’d be there today.

“Easy, gentlemen.” He stopped in front of the group, meeting the eyes of Hugo, Carlos’ most loyal man. More than once Angelo wished he’d sliced Hugo’s throat back when he had the bastard on his knees and blubbering. “Hugo, long time no see. Hope you’ve grown a pair since then.”

A red flush darkened Hugo’s face, hate filled his eyes as he stepped forward.

Angelo allowed a lazy smile to curve his lips. “Back the fuck up, Hugo. We both know you don’t blink without orders. Take me to see my uncle.”

Hugo growled as one of his friends laid a hand on his biceps, but he took that step back.

“I’ve got a bullet with your name on it,” Hugo promised.

“Really?” Angelo laughed. “I smell your fear from here.” He spat on the pavement. “Strong, like hot piss.”

Hugo froze, only for a quick second, before heading into the back of the garage, but Angelo caught it. That comment hit home. Hugo had pissed himself when Angelo stuck the muzzle of his .9mm in his mouth. He grinned at the memory.

As Hugo disappeared through a back door, three guys flanked Angelo where he stood, hands now clasped behind his back. Waiting. He ignored them, eyeing the blue candy paint on a low-riding Chevy Impala.

Pretty.
