Let it burn

Chapter 1

Declan's POV

"You think he's the one?" I looked into the eyes of the man who was tied up right in front of me. His mouth was taped shut but I could see he has tears rolling down his eyes as he realized who I was.

"It's not our guy...but maybe he knows something" I stepped closer and ripped the tape from his mouth and watched as he took in a big breath of fresh air.

"Please I'll tell you whatever it is you need just please don't kill me...I have a wife and kids."

"Sure didn't seem to care about your wife when you were fucking one our girls." Jamison said from right behind me. My right hand man had formed a plan of getting someone with more information into one of our night clubs. It had worked and one of our girls Lucy I believe had been fine with joining in on the plan to help. Once she got him alone in the room she did what she had to do to get a little information out of him till he spilled who he worked for.

"Winston...you work for an old friend of mine who might know an even older friend of mine..." the man's head snapped up as he started nodding. He was pathetic right now just giving the information up so easily. It really did take all the fun out of this for me.

"yes I work for Mr. O'Ryan" the name that I have been searching for. The man I had been trying to hunt down for ages now. He was the missing peace to who had killed my family that night. I could still hear their screams.

"Yes and you have a way to get me on his good side." I walked around this guy seeing his head turn to try to follow me. He was smart trying not to take his eyes off me.

"I-I don't know what you mean."

"He means if we let you live you'll be working for us now. Your alliance will be for us and you will help him get whatever he needs." The man's head snapped to Jamison as he processed what he had just said to him.  "I-I can't do that sir. They will kill me if I cross them." I grabbed the man's head and snapped his head back putting my knife right under his chin right on his throat feeling it bob from fear.

"And what do you think I'm going to do to you if you say no?" There were the tears again "listen if I say yes and I do get killed you only have to promise to protect my wife and kids...please that's all I'm asking no matter what happens to me." I looked to Jamison who nodded his head. He knew I would see it that they were safe no matter how this went for this man.

"I will uphold that promise. If you do right by me then nothing shall harm your family...but do me wrong..." I got real close keeping my knife close to him "and I will make sure that the last thing you hear is your family screaming for you." I said lowly before I threw his head forward. I nodded to Jamison to let him have a little fun with this guy before we let him go. I knew I would never hurt his wife or children. That was one thing I always made sure we avoided is that no woman and children would ever get harmed. I did know however the man did deserve to get hurt for cheating on his wife.

"Let me know if he gives you anything as to how this can work. Maybe that will stop you from taking all your anger out on him for cheating." The man hung his head low just waiting for his punishment as Jamison rolled up his sleeves.

"Will do." I stepped around the man and made my way out of the underground tunnel we have in this old house that was passed down to me from my family. Along with all of my family's money they had left behind. No one had expected someone to live through that night of horror but here I was still living.

And here I was planing to find the people that had killed my family and I was one step closer to it with getting an in with O'Ryan now. Just a matter of time till I was on his good side and finding out who had killed my family and also ending the entire O'Ryan Blood line.
