Honorable Traitor | Tarlos | [ON HIATUS]

Chapter 2

TK's POV

I was on the phone with one of my soldiers as she briefed me on what happened as they where stealing a shipping container from a nearby port. I made sure to ask as many questions as possible about what was happening. 1. To get lots of info and 2. To avoid the fact that the underboss was staring at me.

I eventually had to hang up the phone and while putting my phone back in my pocket I couldn't help but subconsciously check the wire in my belt. After confirming nothing was sticking out and it didn't look suspicious I looked away from it.

I felt a hand on my shoulder just as I looked up from my wire.

I turned to my right to see the underboss standing right there with his hand on my shoulder.

I let out a quiet sigh of relief.

"Hello Mr. Reyes." I greeted him politely.

He smiled back at me and squeezed my shoulder.

"Ah, TK please call me Carlos." He chirped happily.

This confused me. He was the boss. I had to respect him with a formal title. We weren't on first name bases.

"Um, are you sure you want me calling you by your first name sir?" I questioned skeptically.

He laughed at what I said.

I didn't think it was funny, but maybe he did.

"TK calm down, you don't have to be so formal. Just call me Carlos." He said with his hand still on my shoulder.

"It's hot out here." He said out of nowhere. "Let's go inside."

He slid his hand from my shoulder down to my back while leading me into the large house behind us where everyone lived.

At this point I was getting very nervous that I had been figured out. Why else would he be talking to me? Why else would he be touching me?

Luckily almost as soon as we got in the house a guard ran up to Carlos and whispered something in his ear before running off.

Carlos turned towards me smiling.

"I'm gonna have to leave TK. Have a nice night." He said to me before walking in the direction the guard ran.

The fact that Carlos was so quick to leave me alone debunked my theory that I had been found out.

I once again subconsciously checked my belt wire. Only this time my wire was visible. After taking a quick glance around me I quickly tucked my wire back into my belt.
