Seize the moment (Jacob Scipio, Armando Aretas fanfic bad boys)

Aretas

Abigail POV

I sat in my porch drinking a glass of wine looking out at the lake.
Thinking about everything,
If Armando didn't rat me out then why would Lockwood say it's him.
Unless Lockwood is trying to cover for someone else but who?
Is it Dr Frank?
Or is it the same person that is after Mike and Armando?
Well who ever it is I'm sure that person is working with Lockwood.
But why would they target me?
I have nothing to do with Captain Howard,
Unless Dante is working with Lockwood, it's not the first time Dante has worked with the cops to get what he wants.

I looked over at Dorn and Kelly's place across the lake taking a deep breath contemplating if to let them know of my suspicion of Lockwood or let it go because what if I'm wrong?
Rita would kill me.
And also I don't want to see Armando right now,
the guy gust gets me mad for no reason possible.
I don't know if it's because he looks like Dante or it's because he isn't afraid to tell me the truth that I am the ex girlfriend of a notorious criminal.

I headed back into the house grabbing the gun case walking back out to the front porch taking a seat on one of the lounge chairs,
I opened the case taking out Armando's file I stole earlier.

Let's see his father Benito Aretas was the head of the drug barracks in Mexico until he died after his arrest reasons unknown,
He died before Armando was born.
There was not much in his father's file.

His mother Isabel Aretas who also had a huge part in the drug empire and also had a big part in his father investigation and arrest.
she assisted Mike Lowrey who was at the time was undercover as Isabel driver during the investigation.
The Captain noted a suspicion of affair between Lowery and Isabel.
Apparently Mike later on the investigation had a change of heart and arrested Isabel,
She later on gave birth to Armando in prison.
Captain also noted suspicion of kid being Mike's.
There is no notes on Armando child hood and how he grew up.
Years later Armando assisted his mother in her escape,
Isabel later on made a hit list ordering Armando to associate everyone responsible for her arrests,
Resulting in Mike's near death shooting outside a bar in Miami.
File ended there,
I guess that's when captain was killed.

Wow Armando has a fucked up life, being born in prison, probably grew up on the streets without family.
And then had to do his mother dirty work for her killing all those people and at the end being convicted for his mother's crimes.
And also to end it all finding out his father is actually the cop who is responsible for his family downfall.
Yea wow.

I picked up some some photos running trough it stoping at the picture off Isabel,
She is beautiful but why does she look so familiar.
Like I have seen her picture before somewhere.
But where?
Then I remember.

Flash back ( 3 years ago )

"I'm scared, what if they don't like me?"
I said to Dante as we approached his parents house.

"Take a deep breath mi amor, relax,"
"They are going to love you as much as I do."
He said placing a kiss on the back of my hand.

"You know you're the first girl that I am bringing home to my parents?"

"Well that information isn't helpful Dante,"
"Now I'm even more nervous."
I said as we walk inside the house.

"Wait here I'll go get them."
Dante said walking away to get his parents leaving me standing there alone this huge ass Mansion.
I stand there gazing around the room looking at the paintings on the wall.
I came across a few paintings of what looks to be family members.

"That's my son and daughter."
A voice said making me turn around coming face to face with a male around his 80s.

"I'm Bernardino I am Dante's grandfather and you must be Abigail."
He said shaking my hand.

"Nice to meet you."
I said looking at him smiling.

"As I was saying this painting was done by my wife Realia she died 35 years ago."
"She actually painted this picture a couple of days before she died,"
"That's my son Arturo, Dante's father and thats my daughter Isabel she lives in Mexico,"
"she left after her mother's death."
"I miss her so much."
He said taking a deep breath.

"She is beautiful."
I said looking at him smiling as Dante and his parents entered the room.

End of flashback.

I put down the picture of Isabel taking a deep breath,
No wonder Dante and Armando look alike,
they are cousins.
Dante father and Armando mother are siblings.
Suddenly I was taking out of my thoughts by my phone ringing,
I hurried back into the house grabbing my phone on the kitchen counter answering it not even bothering to look at the number that was calling.

"Hello?"

"Hello my love."

"Dante."
I said instantly recognizing his voice.

"It's good to know you still recognize my voice,"
"I have missed you so much, how's your new life in the US?"
"It probably sucks to have to work in a prison treating criminals like me."

"Are you still there Abi?"

"Yes."
I said as my voice began to tremble.

"Well I'm just call to say that I missed you and I will be seeing you sooner than you think,"
"Just be a good girl and go without any issues okay?"
He said as I instantly heard the sound of a boat approaching the house.

"Love you baby see you soon."
Dante said before hanging up.

I quickly took off the lights making my way to the front window peeping out.
A gasp instantly escaped my lips as I saw two men in black military gear exiting a small boat jumping into the front deck off the house.
Fuck!
I whisper realizing the case with the gun was outside in the porch,
I quickly ran into the kitchen grabbing a knife from the drawer taking my phone dialing Kelly's number.

Mike POV

"What about them?"
I said handing som pictures to Armando.

"Nope."
He said flipping through the photos shaking his head.

"Guys we got a problem,"
"Abigail just called,"
"two guys gust pulled up at her place on a boat they are heavily armed,"
"She said she thinks it's Dante guys."
Kelly said.

"I can send in my drones?"
Done said walking towards us.

"Nah we need to get to her now,"
I said grabbing a gun trowing it for Marcus.

"Armando you stay back here,"
"we can't risk anything happening to you,"
I said looking around.

"He is not here."
Dorn said.

"What do you mean he is not here?"
I asked shouting at Dorn."

"He grabbed one off my guns and headed out the door."
Dorn said looking at me.

"Fuck!"
I shouted heading out the door followed by Marcus.
