“Naw, too far away.”
“How far out are you?”
“‘Bout fifty feet. I’m out at the shrubs ‘cross the way.”
“Well go back up to the fuckin’ door, dumbass, and be quiet about it.”
My mind was racing. Cold sweat was dripping down the small of my back.
“No,” I said. “Get out of there, Roach.”
“Get your fuckin’ ass outside that door, Roach,” Lou said in a louder voice.
I glared at Lou.
“Uhhhh… soooo… which one you want me to do? Get the fuck out, or get my fuckin’ ass back to the door?”
“She’s with someone, Jack,” Lou said. “Roach can’t leave until he finds out who.”
“He’s not going in there.”
“Think with your goddamn brain instead of your cock, you stupid sonuvabitch. She’s either a fuckin’ mole, or she’s cheating on you. Take your pick. Either way, she’s a lying bitch who’s not worth having this fuckin’ argument over.”
My guts twisted. I tried to tell myself that she’d never made any promises to me, that she could fuck whoever she wanted –
But ten minutes after I dropped her off?
And even then, I knew that wasn’t the truth.
I knew in the pit of my stomach that she wasn’t fucking some other guy.
It had to be the other option.
She had to be the mole.
“Roach isn’t leaving until he knows who the fuck’s in there, Jack,” Lou said.
This time, I couldn’t find it in myself to say ‘no.’

“What?! Who, the DEA?!” I sputtered.
“Yes. She was an informant for us. She was helping us build a case against the Midnight Riders leadership on drug trafficking charges.”
My head was spinning.
Ali? An informant? For the DEA?!
No… impossible.
A memory bubbled up from the past.
Ali and I were in high school, standing by the lockers in the hallway when a boy walked by. He was dressed like a punk rocker.
Hey, Brian, turn in any of your friends today? Ali spat as he walked past. Don’t worry, it’s early – you still got time.
