"While Mexico faced a crossroads, Amado Carrillo Fuentes had taken off with Sinaloa and Tijuana at war, Amado cut to the front of the line. His deal with Cali now paid him in product, a kilo of coke for every one he moved. Three thousand dollars to transport a kilo became $40,000 to sell for himself, it put him in retail the promised land. Direct sales to America the biggest drug market in the world, as much as five tons a month. That's around 180 million in cash every 30 days thanks to his partnership with Hank. He was able to do it all in plain sight, upgrading from desert landing strips to international airports. For a couple of years in the mid '90s, Amado wasn't just the biggest trafficker in Mexico he was the biggest trafficker anywhere, ever. The vision was complete there was no limit to how much he could move, but as 1994 showed us, that could all change in a hurry."

Alexandra's pov.

As I predicted Amado changed the game and was making thousands plus with the success of the transports a lot changed we finally had a home and a pretty big one but I know that this lifestyle will change very soon. I'm still trying to figure out my plan to continue if Amado does go down.
Believe me, that's going to happen very soon.

We're meeting up with Pacho today we'll see what news he brings us

"There he is, the man in black" Pacho says

"Can't all have your style man, surprised you were in town" Amado says greeting Pacho

"The place looks nice and hello Alexandra how is everything going" Pacho greets me

"Hi Pacho everything good, It's a very beautiful home right," I say

"Shit took long enough, been easier if I'd done it myself," Amado says we all walk inside into the living room

"You like big things, I see," Pacho says

"Who doesn't," I say

"come on, let's talk," Amado says sitting down I stand by his side

"Wanted to tell you in person my partners in Cali want out," Pacho says

I knew that it was all coming to an end.

"The fuck are you talking about?" Amado asks

"They cut a deal with the government, they'll serve a little time, then walk away with their money. Go legit it's over Amado" Pacho says

"Over," I ask

"Yall knew change was coming after Escobar went down," Pacho says

"Not this fuck Pacho. Where do you stand?" Amado asks

"Gilberto and Miguel have always treated me like family," Pacho says

"Pacho there are many things to do and a lot of money to be made," Amado says

"Want to know what god thinks of money? Take a look at who he gives it to. I'm joining them, a man riding into the fucking sunset" Pacho says

"Fuck Pacho," Amado says

"How long do we have? Before our supply runs out" I asks

"I'd make it a priority"

After Pacho gave us the bad news Amado left to figure something out and I stayed behind I called Mayo over to talk. We're running out of time and I gotta act fast.

"Things are changing fast huh? Fucking mess huh?" Mayo says

"Yes it's a mess we could of had all of this figured out if you listened to me in the beginning," I say handing him a drink

"There's nothing we can do now Alexandra, Amado expanded operations taken over the port in peñasco made it hard for my boats to unload. I was hoping to redirect em to San Isidro and not pass them through Tijuana" Mayo says

"That means they will go through the Arellanos plaza but I heard you refuse to join their organization," I ask

"We both know that I like being my own boss," he says

"Yes I know that but hey we will figure this out and we gotta work fast," I say walking over to him

"What's the plan then cariño," he asks

"I call you later so we talk more," I said kissing his cheek

With that being said he left I gotta find my supplier soon as possible. I remembered one guy whom Miguel Angel mentioned once to me some guy named Henao from the north valley. Might as well give him a call and hope he answers which he did.

•phone call•

"Hello who calling" Henao asks

"It's Alexandra Montesinos"

"Ah it's el señor del los cielos wife"

"Yes and can we have a conversation that will stay between us only."

"Yes and how can I help you"

"The Rodriguez brothers want to retire, that doesn't sit well with you," I say

"Rumors"

"Rumors or not let me get straight to the point. I need product four tons a week can the North Valley put together that kind of package" I asks

"Sure we could arrange something but quick question," he asks

"Yes what is the question"

"Is this product for you only or for Amado?" he asks

"To be honest with you Henao I'm starting my operation so you will only supply to me and no one else. Not even Amado or the damn Arellano's you understand" I ask

"No need to look elsewhere darling the north valley would be happy to accommodate you," he says

"This arrangement it's exclusive you will only supply to me and only me understood," I asks

"Understood and we can leave the Arellanos starving as well with Amado because they both contacted me," he says

"I gave you my terms and that's it," I say

"It would be a pleasure to work with you, Ms. Montesinos"

That was a success I go my supplier and it was so easy to do that shit behind Amado's back. I called Mayo to give him the news and he agreed to work together.
