I was with Lilly, and her undead husband was watching me because of it.
“What’s it gonna be Vince?” Salvatore asks.
Nick and Gabe exchange worried glances.
“We need something if we’re going to continue,” Nick says and glances over at me. He’s the most similar to me with the dislike of control, but even he would be backed into a corner of shit in this situation.
“I’m thinking,” Vincent says. “I’m thinking and I’m stumped. I don’t know how the fuck I’m supposed to allow any of this to happen.”
Gibbs comes through the door in that hurried pace again.
“I got them,” he announces and I bolt up. “We were able to trace the call even though the number was unrecognized.”
“Where are they?” I ask.
“They’re in an old steel factory in Winthrop Harbor,” Gibbs answers.
That’s North Chicago. They’re still here.
“Looks like they’re planning to move after lunch,” Gibbs adds.
I look back to Vincent and each of the guys. The last person I look at is Georgiou who already knows what I want to do.
I want to take the risk.
I look at him and somehow I see myself eighteen years ago running toward Amelia as she stood on the edge of Eagle Mountain.
I always think about how I was running to her, but I never think of who was behind me. It was Georgiou.
We have our disagreements, and I can call him a prick who likes to please Pa all I want, but when push comes to fucking shove the man has my back.
So it shouldn’t surprise me when he gets up and walks over to me, coming to my side.
He nods at me and I nod back, appreciating him.
If I go and I get this wrong that’s everything gone down the drain.
Right now, two stand against the four brothers of power in the family. Any of them could take us out for causing a threat to what we have.
“I can’t allow him to take them,” I say, looking straight at Vincent. Each of them should know what I feel to have my woman taken. They each had it happen to them so they know that I’ll do anything to get her back.
Vincent stands and I hold my breath.
“Let’s go boys,” Vincent says and my whole body sighs with relief. “Clocks ticking.”

It takes us two hours to get to the factory. It’s by the docks and looks old indeed. Not in use by the looks of things. The perfect place for a guy like Miguel to hide out.
There’s a few men outside the place guarding the entrance. When we checked things out we counted out twenty guys in the facility itself. All guards. It’s nearly ten. Two hours before that prick is supposed to call me and I hope I can get Lilly and Rosie back before things get out of hand.
Miguel won’t know we’re here and I’m hoping the element of surprise with a shoot to kill tactic will get the job done.
We’ve got twenty men too, but the strength and skill is comparable to double the amount. We’ve got the place surrounded. Everyone has their set jobs.
Me, Vincent, Salvatore and Georgiou are going in from the side entrance with Claudius and his men backing us while Nick and Gabe have the others on the opposite side.
Gibbs has a hacker who’s infiltrated the surveillance and will be our eyes.
