“There won’t be any more beatings.”Frost growled.“She’s under my watch now and no one will ever hurt her again.”

Chapter Five

When Leon went to hisoffice for a moment’s peace he found Jelly Bean and Rebel waiting for him.The both of them were sitting in the high back chairs in front of his desk.

He sighed hard as he knew by the looks on their faces this would not be a peaceful moment.He went around and sat down at his desk.Then looked at the two women and asked, “Can I help you ladies?”

Jelly Bean growled.“Yeah, you can help us.Tell us about the woman the guys brought in.Who the hell beat her up like that?”

“So, you saw that, hmm?”he asked them quietly.

“Yes, we did,” Rebel replied.

Leon paused as he stared at them for a long time.Then he leaned back against his chair and told them about Ria, “Her brothers dragged her here to Boston.They were following the cartel we are dealing with.They came here to make their bones and prove to the cartel they had what it takes to join them.”Shaking his head he added, “They were troppo poco, troppo tardi.”

The two women crossed their arms over their chests and glared at him.

Leon sighed and translated it, “Too little, too late.You both know this because you helped us to kill quite a few of them.These idiotas had a plan too.They planned to use her to get to Lucinda.”

“What?”Rebel asked while looking puzzled.

“This girl Ria is Lucinda’s best friend, apparently.So they wanted Ria to lure Lucinda to her so that they could trap her and give her dead body to Paulo Gondo as their ticket to cartel fame.Bene, Ria refused to do it.They got pissed and let their hands do the talking.They used her own dog to hunt her down and after they were done using her as a punching bag, they shot her dog and she escaped.Now they are looking for her.Frost and Jake found her before they could.”

“Is she okay?”Rebel wanted to know.

Leon stared at her then he slowly nodded his head.“Si, she is, but she will have issues perhaps.With walking, so the doctor told us.She may have to use a cane.”

Both girls growled low.

Leon stared at them.He might even fear these girls if they were both angry and ready to fight.He hid his smile as he looked down at the desk.

“Does she got any love in her heart for her brothers?”Jelly Bean asked.

Leon raised his head to look at her.“Why would you ask that?”

Jelly Bean and Rebel got to their feet.
