Chapter Twenty

After seeing that Nesmith got the medical attention that he needed, Jada and Carmen were on their way to J.R.’s to see if she could connect with Rain. And besides, after what just happened to them at Enzo’s Palace, J.R.’s was the safest place for Carmen to be or so you would think. This wasn’t a veiled threat like pointing a gun at her. They were trying to kill her, and would have succeeded had it not been for Nesmith making himself a human shield.

Carmen looked over at Jada. “Go ahead and say it.”

“Say what?”

“Aren’t you going to tell me that I should back off of this? Everybody else has.”

“No,” Jada simply said.

“You’re not?”

“No. You're a big girl now, Carmen Taylor. You certainly don’t need me telling you what you should and shouldn’t be doing. Men tried to kill you tonight, Carmen.” Jada paused. “To me, that means that you know more about … whatever it is you’ve gotten yourself into than you think you know, or at least they think you do.”

“Right.”

“So, going to Paris isn’t going to stop them. You have to stop them. Your life actually does depend on it.”

Carmen laughed quietly. “Thanks for that.”

“You’re welcome. I thought you needed a reality check,” Jada said as they arrived at J.R.’s. When the driver came around and opened the door, Jada got out and then she looked back at Carmen.

“You go ahead. I got a few calls that I need to make,” Carmen said, and the driver closed the door. Jada walked away from the limo thinking that may have been too direct, but they were words that she needed to hear.

Jada walked toward the club and went straight up to Leo.

“Good evening, Mr. Williams.”

Surprised by her sudden appearance, Leo practically sprang to attention. “Good evening, Ms. West.”

“Would you mind escorting me in, please?”

“It would be my honor, Ms. West.”

“Splendid,” Jada said, and looped her arm in his and he escorted her in J.R.’s.

Carmen sat in the limousine thinking about what Jada had just told her. She was right, it was direct, but it was exactly what Carmen needed to hear. Deep in her core, she knew that Jada was right. Within the last twelve hours, men had tried to kill her twice. So her running away for a couple of weeks in Paris wasn’t the solution. And neither was letting the police handle it. Jada’s words rang in her ear.

You have to stop them.

The fact was, Carmen had the flash drive; she’d seen what was on it. But what is it about those women dancing and masturbating that is worth killing for?

It strengthened her resolve to find out what it was.

Even though she was still a little weak, Rain, along with Wanda, Glenda, Yarissa and the men that Carter assigned, were on their way to J.R.’s. Wanda felt, and Rain agreed, that the fewer people knowing the location of her safe house the better. She was going there to meet with all the captains to talk about what was going on.
