Reckless

Kendu 76

How the fuck did I end up in this fucked up situation? Earlier today my only plan was to stay on the couch and sulk, now I was standing in an empty building, standing over a dead body. Not just any dead body but one of Epic's dudes (no one important but still), how the fuck did J'Wayne end up in this situation and why was he dragging me into it; cousin or not I wasn't trying to get involved in a murder that I didn't commit. For all his book smarts, when it came to this street shyt he was completely hopeless, and I was still waiting for him to give me a straight answer on how the fuck this happened. Where the fuck was his security, what the fuck was he doing here in the first place, and why... why was he coming to me for help? Didn't he have people who handled this type of thing? Whatever the case, I was here now and I had to help him, he was essential to my plans and I couldn't let him go down for something so stupid.... But I was going to need answers and not only about this situation, there were a few other things I needed answers to and if he wanted my help he was going to need to start talking.....

"How the fuck did this happen?" I asked, now this nigga was biting his nails... he needed to toughen the fuck up if he was going to continue his role as my business partner. "J'Wayne... breathe and tell me what happened." I asked, careful not to step in the pool of blood that was spreading across the floor and thankful that I hadn't touched a damn thing in here.

"He uhh.... he tried to extort me, he came saying that he knew who I REALLY was and my family connections... Threatened to out me if I didn't pay him 2.5 million dollars." J'Wayne said looking down at the dude, fuck... How the fuck did he get this information, more importantly, I need to know if he told anybody.

"He's a low-level nigga in Epic's little gang... how the fuck did he find out?" I said mostly to myself. "I don't think he's told anybody because he wouldn't want that information getting back to Epic.... he seems more greedy than ambitious." I said walking myself through likely scenarios.

"So what are we going to do?" J'Wayne asked and I was curious as to how it became 'WE', this was his fuck up... but still I needed him. "Maybe I should call Detective Cullen, he'll know what to do...." J'Wayne said and I was seriously considering smacking the fuck out of him, why in the fuck would you call a HOMICIDE DETECTIVE after committing a homicide?

"Nah... I'll handle it, right now you need an alibi. Who can you call that can say you've been with them all night?" I asked and J'Wayne thankfully had a list of people to choose from. "Aight get outta here..... we'll talk in the morning." I said and J'Wayne darted from the house out the side door.....

"There by the time the police finish the autopsy, it'll look like he set the fire and offed himself... I might have to grease a few palms but that's really nothing." Zeus said as we watched the building go up in smoke.

"Thanks, man... once again I owe you. So how is your little side project with Nolan and Bazil going?" I asked as he pulled off.

"Right now things are running smoothly, my boss has big plans for them so they're untouchable... They aren't too happy about my entanglement with Icon but since that nigga Sincere has been back that's pretty much over and done with... Shame I was hoping to get a piece of his lil sexy ass but I doubt that'll happen." Zeus said and I nodded. How I met this nigga is unimportant, but we shared similar goals and it was good to have someone close to the main players.

"Ayy don't count yourself out just yet... From what I've learned Hayes men are freaks and if you play your cards right you might be able to pull both Icon and Sincere." I said lowkey wanting to watch, I wonder if Icon's dick is as big as his brothers???? "Anyways, I appreciate your help, if there's anything you need from me just say the word...." I said.

"Actually.... there is something, I need to get close to Ezequiel and Edmund, my boss wants me to deliver a message to them. Do you think you can make that happen?" Zeus asked and I glanced at him... what the fuck did he need to talk to them for? "Don't worry it has nothing to do with you or your plans... Black Rose business, you understand." Zeus said and I nodded, I'd leave it alone because I definitely wasn't trying to get involved with those niggas.
