Dolores laid out on her sun lounger in the garden of her new home. She had left the marital home that she shared with Leaford and was now living by herself, where she could plot her revenge on all the people she believed wronged her.
She picked up her cellphone from the table next to her and she called Telford, she hadn't heard from him for a while and she was used to more communication than this with a man she had slept with.
The phone rang and then connected.
"Dolores... what a surprise?." He said.

"Hey you.. I wondered if you were busy... I'm at a loose end and wanted to know if you would like to come over tonight?.."

"... sorry girl I'm busy.. and I'm goons be busy for the foreseeable too... you know how business goes." He said to her.

"I thought you might like to celebrate with me the fact of the story on Hadyn... it drops tomorrow morning at 6 am." She said. "Yours and my handiwork..."

"For real?... if the feds read that...

"Good.. and half the country will see his face and know the type of man that he is... so, do you still not want to come over and celebrate with me?." She smiled

"Aite... I guess I can stretch to a celebration fuck... I'll see you in a couple of hours..." he said and ended the call.

She laughed to herself before her hair was grabbed from behind and she was dragged off of the linger on to the floor. A hail of punches came her way into her face and her head and she didn't have chance to get up from the floor let alone fight back. Whoever it was still had a hold of her hair.
She looked up and in front of her was Hadyn. He had his arms folded looking at her.

Courtney stepped from a bloody and beaten Dolores and stood next to her cousin

"Hadyn.. why would you do this to me.." she said wiping her blood from her mouth.

"I've been hearing shit about you

"I've been hearing shit about you.. it's like you just can't let shit go... a couple of things.. first of all and something you're gonna end up dead for is fucking with Leaford... and secondly, Lucia... tell me what my girl... I'll say it again loud enough for you to understand...MY GIRL... has got to do with you... I've been hearing that you're talking my business to people... and bringing her name into it..."

"No... no you're wrong... I haven't said or done anything!." She said protesting her innocence.

"Fuck you!... who had her apartment turned over... was it Telford?."
She shifted uneasily, to her it seemed crazy that this man knew everything.

"I don't know what you're talking about!.." she said still on the floor scared that if she moved Courtney would beat her again.

"You've been fucking him...

She stared at him. "I.. I... swear I haven't...

"You wanted for me and you to be together but you think that I would want to touch you after you've been with him?... you are more deluded than I thought...."
