"Boss," His voice vibrates with anger.
"Have you killed anyone?"
He chuckles, "No, not yet although I'm fucking close."
"Right, is it any of the men?" I can't have him in a room with them if it is.
"No."
"Meet me and the rest of the men. We're having a meeting then you and I will have one." It's an order. He can't go off and kill who he pleases, although I'm pretty sure it's Carina that he's trying not to put his hands on. We may be assholes, but we don't stoop that low. Any of my men are found to have hit a woman, they will be severely dealt with, things are going to be different than how my dad ran the organization.
Martin's uncharacteristically silent, "What?" I bark out, the silence putting me on edge.
"I got a call from Jorge." I'm all ears. "The man that met with Juan is Juan's cousin, Arturo."
"How the hell did he not know it was his damn cousin?"
"Arturo's been in Mexico Boss. He's only been in the States for a month." Martin has a smirk on his face which means he has an idea. I wait for him to spit it out. "Arturo's visa ran out two weeks ago. It's time to have his ass deported."
I shake my head at the pettiness but fuck, it's a good idea. "Get the ball rolling, make sure he's arrested first and foremost with possession." Getting him arrested will have the cops look into him, he’ll be deported for being an illegal. The cops on my payroll will see to it. Not only that, it'll add more heat onto Juan and give me even more excuse to keep that fucker away from my family and business.
"On it Boss, he'll be picked up by the end of the day." He assures me, and I smile. It's about time those fucking cops and officials on my payroll are being used. Otherwise, they're sitting on their asses doing fucking nothing while reaping the rewards.
"Boss, may I speak freely?" He asks, his voice strong and steady, he's been working up to this.
"Of course," I reply instantly. He's piqued my interest.
"I believe that security for your father, mother, stepmother, and step-sister need to be set up. We have no idea what Juan has planned or what he'll plan once Arturo is deported. We need to have every base covered."
I nod, "Okay, what is your plan?"
"How did you know that I have a plan already?"
I chuckle, "You wouldn't have approached this conversation without being thorough. So what is your plan?"
His back straightens as he glances in the rearview mirror, "I want to hire a few guys to come in and protect your family."
"Absolutely not." I don't trust newbies, hell I hardly trust my men. There's no way I'm hiring out for protection.
"Listen to me, Boss." He implores, "These guys, they're the best. They're not cops, and they don't belong to the government."
"So, who are they?" If they don't belong to the government, then who and what are they?
"They're a group of elite men and women. They've been in the military but now are their own company or should I say task force. Look I don't know much about them other than they're the best and they will make sure your family is safe."
He's not exactly making a good case for them. "That's all you got?"
He lets out a heavy sigh, "No, my brother Macka is part of the team. Boss, the only reason I even know about the team is because of Macka."
I frown, "I thought your brother died."
His smirk is reflected through the mirror, "Yeah, Boss; you're finally getting why they're the best."
It clicks, these men and women are supposedly dead; hence, they can do anything they want. "How long has this team been going? What do they specialize in?"
"Um..." He wavers, "That I’m not entirely sure of, I’ve not long found out he’s still alive.”
They’re mercenaries, that’s what they are. I’m not having anyone I don’t know watch my family, but I’m not going to instantly dismiss it either. Martin brought it to me because he believes they would do a good job. I’m not going to cut down his idea, not just yet anyway.
