Excerpt
Tino cursed
every person in Isabella’s life including himself. She should not be here in
the middle of what he now believed to be a showdown between the drug lord, the
gangs stealing his goods, and DEA. He wove in and out of traffic, his foot
pressing the accelerator to the floor as he sped back to Garza’s compound. He
wanted to charge into the house and confront the man but that would only get
him killed and perhaps Isabella as well.
He punched the
button on the call box at the gate and was buzzed in. Everyone, including the
staff, milled about the grounds. Tino parked his vehicle in the garage and
strode up to Cezar.
“Why is everyone
walking around?”
“We still have
not found Hector.” Cezar motioned toward the house. “Perhaps you should go in
and tell jefe all you know about where Hector could be. I told you to watch
him.”
Tino shoved the
man in the chest. This was an excellent way to work off his rage. “You did not
tell me I was to babysit.”
Cezar shoved
back. “You knew he was incompetent.”
Tino stood in
front of Cezar ready to shove a fist in his face, when he caught sight of Garza
watching. He pressed his arms down to his side, clenching his fists. “I did not
think he could screw up parking cars.” Shaking out his tense arm muscles, he
nodded toward the house. “I’ll go see Garza now.”
