Miguel Lobos in the m.m :)

Miguel Lobos P.O.V

After Kimberly 'oh so dramatically' walked out of my office, I actually calmed down. I sat on the couch and dialled Nicholas.

"I'm with Zack at the warehouse what time are you going to be here? We need to strategize." That's how he answered his phone. No need for formalities, we were in so much trouble.

"Before we deal with Carter we need to take the bodies to their families and arrange the money for their relatives." I was torn, this business we were in was very, very dangerous I knew that but still death touched what was left of my heart.

"I will let the other guys handle that. Just sign the checks." He informed me. Nicholas grew a thick skin better than me. He refused to feel anything, even when we recruit our men, he tells them before hand exactly what they are getting themselves into. Their job is to deliver the services, be our front men, back men, side men and protect us with their lives. We paid them hefty amounts every month for just that. Losing ten men was going to hurt my coven, I have to act.

I used Lobos Empire to clean my dirty money, I am not one of those drug dealers that always have hefty amounts of money stashed in the house, I have ten different bank accounts, legally that held my money. I didn't take those online business lessons for granted. I signed the ten checks, two million dollars each.

I went to my room and took a shower. I dressed in my usual attire. A black suit, white shirt no tie. I don't know why I always felt the need to dress up, but I can't just walk out looking like I'm some basic dude. I was just centimetres from being A mafia king, I had to look and own the part.

I took my cell phone and picked car keys at random and walked out.

"And where are you going looking so yummy?" Aunt Charlotte was coming from her room, walking barefoot.

"Something came up. I have to dash." I answered not really wanting to waste a second minute in this house.

"Does Kimberly know you are leaving?" She asked, eyes suspicious. I forgot how she thinks Kimberly and I were an item. How do you explain living with your boss, without telling the truth?

"Uh, no. But she knows where I'm going, tell her I'm gone." I descended the stairs quickly, trying to beat the late afternoon traffic just outside the complex. It was Saturday and people have this need to go out Saturday night and there is always traffic just before the T-junction.

I found Kimberly downstairs she was coming from the outside, her phone in her hands.

She just walked past by me, even when her aunt was right behind me.

I grabbed her by the elbow. "I have to meet Nicholas and I'm sorry, you were right." She didn't even look me in the eyes, she just nodded and walked away.

I sighed and walked to the garage. I got in my 2017 Porsche Macan nd sped off. Lucky enough I beat the traffic.

I arrived at the warehouse in forty minutes.

"Boss." Rio welcomed me by the entrance, his hair was disheveled and eyes blood shot red.

"What happened?" I asked, I never actually got the story behind all of this.

"We have been watched." He said.

"Rio? We are always being watched!" I wanted to jump his throat for saying that stupid line.

"No, we are being watched as in severly observed. These guys went clubbing on their day off, fifteen of them. They were marked, Carter knew which guys he wanted dead and all fifteen of them, were his target. The other five survived. Managed to take out four of Carter's men, but we lost a whole lot."
