Chapter 38
Jason and Janet sat at the restaurant with their drinks, which they were going to need for certain. Janet had a glass of sparkling water while Jason had some whiskey. They were both nervous and beyond pissed that they had to do what they were doing, having a conversation with Christopher Sanders when all they wanted to do was murder the man. It was a favor for Antonio.
He found his house and needed to find Christavo Tate. Therefore, he needed Chris out of the house long enough for him to search without interruptions. It made sense. He couldn’t just knock on the door knowing Chris knew who he was. He couldn’t take any chances.
Dan was entertaining Damien for a few hours, in the meantime. The house would be empty enough for him to explore. A message appeared on her phone as she saw Julissa’s text warning her to be careful and if she needed anything to call her. It
One Year LaterJason fixed Damien’s tie as he prepared for his first day on the job as the Sex Doctor. His hair was cut into a tapered style, head full of curly hair spilling over his face with a fresh fade on the sides. He fidgeted a lot as Jason helped him dress.“Nervous?” Jason asked but already knew the answer.“What if I can’t do this? What if I screw up?” Damien asked, doubting himself and ready to pull the suit off.“Do you want to do this, Damien?” Jason asked picking up his suit jacket.Damien sighed then as he swallowed a huge gulp of spit. “Yes,” he said determinedly.“Then, you have everything at your disposal for you to do so. I showed and taught you everything I know to prepare you for this business side of things. All you have to do is charm your clients.” Jason encouraged.The door opened then as Damien looked at himself in the mirror. “Oo
Chapter 50 Antonio took a deep breath as he entered the nursing home he dreaded all his life. A hand touched his right shoulder and then another soft hand grabbed his rough one. Both Julissa and Janet were there to comfort him in this time where everything seemed so uncertain. It had been years since he even spoke to his mother, far too afraid of the outcome. They all waited in the guest room, holding their breath as the nurse went out of the room to escort his mother to them. Antonio fixed his collar as he cleared his throat. A beautiful, Latin woman came into the room looking sad at first, but her eyes lit up once she saw her son. “Antonio?” “Hi, mother!” Antonio stood up as Julissa and Janet helped him go to he
Chapter 49Dan returned home to see his boys at the dining table, one drinking the other not, waiting for his return. After a quick shower and advising them to do the same to wash away the grime and blood and guilt, they sat back at the table, Jason in some of his old clothes and Damien fitting something old of Dan’s. They all looked exhausted.“I’m proud of you boys,” Dan said, taking a shot of his drink. “I couldn’t have asked for better sons, despite everything. I know you all will carry the Sanders legacy on. Which is why I have some things brewing. But since Ross is gone, I will have to find a new lawyer.” He paused looking at Damien. “I want us to get your name changed to Sanders, Damien. You’re part of the family now.”“No offense, but my name is all I have left of my mother. No thanks to you and Chris.” Damien argued back.Dan only nodded, understanding. “You are part
Chapter 48The quiet, eerie police station after dark only had a few officers there on duty during this shift. The rest went out on patrol which would, thankfully, give Antonio enough space to do what he needed to do, as quickly and efficiently as possible. There was a cold suspicion that Haynes was there. Of course, he would be to handle all of Chris’s needs; hopefully, it would lead Antonio right to him. Now Christopher Sanders was on everyone’s hit list.His key still worked for the back door as he tried to go to the evidence room without being caught or making too much noise. If things were filed correctly, Christavo’s gun would’ve been placed with the rest of the things on his person. He rested his hands on his hips as he walked forward, taking every breath with a step. His eyes glanced around the low-lit room searching each shelf for the gun.The door then opened to the police station causing Antonio to hide in between shelves, sq
Chapter 47 The smell that hit their noses once they opened the door was something all the men couldn’t deny would be embedded in their memory for all time. Dan had seen dead bodies, dealt with them, but the amount of stink in his home would never seem to clean itself after Eric Ross's dead body laid in his living room. Damien started to gag and hold the door frame for fresh air as Jason just covered his nose, closing his eyes as well. “Is he supposed to smell like that?” Jason asked, turning his head. “Ross had always been a smelly fellow. Go get the bleach and towels out the kitchen.” Dan commanded as he inched closer to the hallway to grab some gloves. “Here.” He handed some to Damien as he covered his nose and mouth with his arm. 
Chapter 46 Jason immediately lowered Dan’s gun down to invite him in. “Damien?” He wrapped his arms around his little brother, surprised to see him, but more so now that they had all the pieces together could welcome him with open arms. Janet walked over to him as well hugging him to Damien’s surprise. The sibling’s embrace was rather heartwarming as Damien didn’t know what to do with the affection. “What happened, Damien? Have you taken your old man’s advice?” Dan asked, folding his arms as Damien pulled away from the twins. “I read the letters, but it still doesn’t mean I trust you. Chris has been…he didn’t come back from the hotel and neither did your lawyer. Did you murder them?” Damien asked outright to Dan.
