‘This’ being a crack house guarded by what looked to be five or six armed guards.
And, based on the heat signatures, there were at least twenty small somethings in that house.
Winston was right, though. What were the odds he’d lead us here?
Something wasn’t adding up.
But there was no way I’d leave anyone at the mercy of whatever creepy fucks were outside.
“Did you find what I asked for?” Winston asked LaDerrick.
“Yes,” he answered. “Just got the info. House is registered to Abraham McBride. That’s why he was here.”
“Wonderful,” Winston said as he slipped his gun into the holster at the back of his pants. “Let’s go see what we can scrounge up.”
“Incapacitate or kill?” Autry asked.
Winston rolled his eyes. “We can’t go killing in the States, Autry, and you know it.”
“I can do what I want, when I want.” He paused. “But I’ll be good just this once.”
“I appreciate it,” Winston joked.
“The names of the guards outside are…” LaDerrick went on to explain their names, job titles, last known locations, as well as the occupations of each man standing outside based solely on a grainy, almost dark photo that we’d sent to him over thirty minutes ago when we arrived to find it armed to the teeth.
“Now what do they have in that room?” I wondered.
“Let’s go find out.”
So we did.
And what we found was absolutely disgusting.

“The man lives in a home with five other wives, almost four children per wife, and they all share like one happy little family? Yeah, right.” I rolled my eyes. “And what’s with the hardware outside if they’re happy living here?”
“Something feels like it stinks,” Autry agreed.
“You’re telling me that you’re absolutely okay with your man living in Germany, while you and your husband’s five other wives live here and get protected by actual criminals?” Winston asked.
At the closest lady’s nod, he rolled his eyes and turned to the one who looked to be the youngest—and least brainwashed by her ‘husband.’
“Have you seen your ‘husband?’” I asked.
“N-no.” She looked around hesitantly.
She was the only one who didn’t have children.
Though it looked like she was a few months shy of having one.
“He’s suspected of abusing my fiancée’s sister,” I said. “She killed herself last month.”
The woman’s eyes widened.
It was the woman at her side’s snort that had my eyelid twitching.
“You think we’ll believe that our Abraham would cause anybody harm? He protects his country. Why would he hurt it?” She sniffed.
