Chapter 15
“Where the fuck is she!” Cade yells, throwing his glass of whiskey across the room, its contents shattering against the wall..
He can’t find our little angel, and he is seconds away from tearing the world apart. I knew she was meant for me the day I walked down that hallway and saw her face. She smelled of peaches and sunshine.
God, I miss that smell.
She was supposed to be sent here, but someone fucked up, and she never arrived. Not even Cherryville has a record of who she was released to.
The only information we know is that three guys picked her up. Once we grabbed the footage from there, we ran the plates, but they turned out to be fake. Kevin put out the word with every connection we have.
Stone hasn’t slept in days, causing him to be more on edge than usual. We had to drag him out of a bar fight with two guys last night. The twins are headed home today, so we can come up with a plan.
“How the fuck does she keep slipping through our fingers? This was supposed to be a done deal.” Stone says, cracking his knuckles.
I pull out my phone, sending a text to my cousin.
Me: Hey man
Vito: Sup Bro
Me: I need a favor and need it done quickly
Vito: Don’t I always deliver quickly? (eye roll emoji)
Me: Yeah, man, you do but this one is important
Vito: Aren’t they all? Get to the point
Me: I need you to look into a girl
Vito: A girl, huh?
Me: Yeah, man
Vito: Name?
Me: Aluxis Vega. She goes by Lux.
Vito: Attachment Received
Vito: Damn. She’s fine.
Me: I’ll slice your fucking throat. Blood or not.
Vito: Chill bro. Anything else?
Me: Yeah, she was last seen getting in a car with three dudes leaving Cherryville
Vito: Maybe she doesn’t want to be found
Me: FUCKING FIND HER OR I’LL SEND STONE YOUR WAY
Vito: Chill. Don’t send big boy my way.
Vito: I’ll find the chick
Me: Quickly.
Vito: It’s gonna cost you.
Me: It always does. Name it
Vito: I’ll let you know when the time comes.
I stare at the message. He’s always getting himself into some shit. I don’t know if the guys are going to go for it this time. Last time, he got us into a gun fight, and I was shot twice, leading me to be hospitalized for over a month.
“Vito says he will help, but it’s going to cost us.” I look over to Cade. He stops pacing and turns to look at me with an annoyed expression.
“What will it cost us this time?” Rubbing at his temples.
“He won’t say until the time comes.” I pick up the glass off the table, bringing it to my lips, drinking the cool liquid, allowing the burn down my throat. I look back up towards Cade.
“Fuck. Fine. Just find her.” Walking out of the room and slamming the door. Picking up my phone, I respond to Vito.
“This is going to bite us in the ass, man.” Stone looks over at me. “He always comes with a catch.” Stone says, standing up and walking toward the door.
“Yeah, that’s what I’m worried about too, but what other choice do we have?” Standing up, following him out the door.
“Let’s go grab some food.” He says, walking down the stairs.
It’s been a week and still no word from Vito. We’re all losing our shit, not sure what the fuck is happening. How does a girl just disappear off the face of the earth?
“If we don’t hear from him soon, I say we drive down there and kick his ass.” Stone says, with a sinister smile on his face.
“Anyone heard from Zin or Harlan?” Cade asks, still scrolling through his phone.
“Nope.” We say in unison just as the front door opens.
“Hunny, we’re home!” Harlan yells, coming around the corner and into the room.
“Where the fuck have you been?” Stone asks.
“Fucking your mom, pretty boy.” Harlan says, blowing a kiss at Stone.
“Fuck you.” Stone says with a laugh.
“Any updates?” Zin asks, finally walking into the room, looking down at his phone, before looking up, and as soon as our eyes lock, he looks away.
When is he going to get over his little hurt feelings?
He’s been acting like a little bitch since he sucked my dick. He needs to get the fuck over it. He knows how I feel about it and him. I get up, walk over to him, grab him by the back of his head, and slam our lips together. Our tongues fight for dominance. I pull away smirking, turn and walk back over to the chair, and sit down.
“Now that you two, kissed and made up.” Stone says. ”Can the rest of us get our heads out of our asses?” He looks over at Cade with lust filled eyes.
Cade rolls his eyes, “Can we focus on finding our girl?”
“How the fuck did you three lose her? I knew one of us should have gone.” Zin says as he walks over and pulls out a chair, sitting down.
“Fuck that. I’m not a fucking babysitter. From what I’ve heard, she acts like a spoiled little brat.” Harlan says.
“If you aren’t down, then say that. More for us.” I smile, thinking about her laying on my bed as I suck on her clit. Adjusting myself at the thought, I clear my throat, letting out a little cough.
“I didn’t say I wasn’t down. I can’t wait to see her fight and struggle when I wrap my hand around her throat as she gasps for air.” Harlan says with a huge grin.
“Keep your dicks in check. We need to find her.” Cade says, slamming his fists on the table. “Now let’s come up with a plan.”
We will find you little angel and when we do you won’t slip away again.
