“Keeps the crew loyal to you,” Black said and pointed at her. “If you had busted up his crew and made them work for Carter or Jackie, they would have resented you for it and that’s the last thing you need when you’re trying to rebuild. Understand?”

“This way everybody’s happy,” Bobby said and shot his drink and Black poured him another. “Judah gets to have a piece of Doc’s legacy and his crew stays loyal.”

“I understand.” Rain paused. “What you wanna do with Ed Weather and the rest of Doc’s businesses?”

“What do you wanna do?” Black asked as he and Bobby sat down.

“I don’t think we need to make anybody a captain, not right now, for sure. So what you think about splitting it up between Carter and Jackie?”

“I think that you’re right,” Black said. “I honestly don’t see anybody I’d pull out the captain’s chair for. Do you, Bob?”

“Not anymore. Anybody I thought could have stepped up is dead.”

“Neither do I,” Rain said as Yarrisa knocked on the door and stuck her head in.

“I have Jackie for you,” she said, and Rain waved her in.

“Hey, y’all; what’s up?” Jackie said.

“What do you know about AD and what happened to Robert King’s organization after he died?” Rain asked.

“And you killed Ronnie?”

“Yeah, smart ass.”

“Not much, to be honest with you,” Jackie said, thinking that Rain was ready to start hitting their spots. Because that’s how we do it. “But I’m on it.”

“I’m out. I’ll take care of AD,” Black said as he and Bobby stood up. He looked at Rain. “Remember, you be patient. Understand?”

“Understood.”

When Black, Bobby and Jackie left Rain’s office, she was faced with a dilemma. She was sure, without question, that Rona King was not only involved, Rain was certain that she was the mastermind behind it.

After all, the bitch really is brilliant.

But that didn’t change the fact that Rain had to find a way to stop her and put an end to this war.

Putting that bitch in the ground would have been my first choice.

But she was a soldier; Mike Black’s loyal soldier, so she would do what he told her to do.

And then you be patient.

Being patient, about anything, was never Rain’s strong suit, so not ordering that her people find Rona King so she could kill her was the hardest thing that she had ever had to do. And there in lay the dilemma.

Go do what I know is the right thing to do, or sit here like a good girl and behave myself?

The decision was easy.

“Yarrisa!”

It took a while this time, but Yarrisa came in the office shaking her head. “I’m not even gonna say it.”

“Good, ’cause I don’t want to hear that shit. Is Jackie still in the club?”

“In the lounge with Carter and Baby Chris.”

“Get them for me,” Rain ordered and Yarrisa rushed off to carry them out.
