Chapter Sixteen

“I don’t know what the hell you were thinking,” the quiet tone vibrated with rage. “You should have just stayed out of that shit. No. You should never have brought them into this.”

“We needed them,” Pamela’s killer, King of Clubs, murmured and reached for the bottle of gin on the side table next to the chair he was seated in. The lights in the study were a light bright making him feel as if he were under a spotlight.

He poured himself another splash. The ice was melting in his glass, but that merely meant he didn’t have to add more soda.

“You’re an ass,” his companion muttered. “Now, The Hatter’s pissed and Trigger’s in deep shit. I’m going to have to kill him.”

“So what?” he asked. “The bastard should never have allowed her to skim so much. I warned him to watch her.”

“Wes was a loss too, but with DHS snooping around. It’s better he was taken out of play,” Black Jack muttered. “You let this shit get out of hand.”

“Yeah, but I’m cleaning it up just like you did a few weeks ago.” Black Jack was The Hatter’s right-hand man, and Black Jack had had to kill a few of the men Black Jack had brought into the organization. One had been a longtime friend.

Black Jack hadn’t batted an eye lash, but neither had he. They both understood that this was a hard life and hard choices had to be made sometime.

“So, are we getting back on track?”

“DHS is really pushing for Crandall’s murderer and they’re still on Mojo,” he muttered. “And Mojo has been too quiet for my taste since The Hatter’s fuck up.”

“Why didn’t you pull him back?” King of Clubs demanded. “Mojo is a pack of rabid females with guns. A little knowledge has made them damned dangerous.” Mojo was an agency of female mercenaries The Hatter wanted to see dead, but the feds weren’t able to get to them despite the assassinations of public servants Mojo had carried out.

“They aren’t just a two-bit agency of bitches with guns,” Black Jack murmured.

“That is my point, so why is he insisting on fucking with them?”

“I don’t know what his deal was, but I know what it is now,” Black Jack told him. He wants this city filled with drugs he supplies, and he’s worried they’ve put down roots here and won’t let it happen.”

“According to my contact, it’s not them,” he said and then took a sip of his drink.

“Who is it?”

“DEA,” King of Clubs said. “I heard they’ve got a mole inside the organization.”

“Five by Five? Our organization?” Black Jack demanded. “Who is he?”

“I don’t know,” he said with a shrug. “I’m still working that angle, but my informant said everything’s real tight around this case. They’re determined to take us down.”

“What about Mojo?”

“CIA wants them, but the mole they managed to put inside is dead. The girl didn’t last two weeks.”

Black Jack grunted. “We’ll have to be careful,” he said and narrowed his eyes. “Did you get the tapes back?”

He shook his head.
