Her Mafia Revenge

2. Ask

~ Jax~

I was sitting at the desk in the office of my club, filling out paperwork when my best friend Jake walked in.

"Hey man, what are you up to?" I asked, seeing him agitated.

"Haven't you heard?" He asked. Running a hand through his hair, pacing around.

"Heard what?" I ask, raising my brows.

"Dad got a call from the police last night" he said.

"And?" I asked. Expecting him to explain.

"They didn't want anything" He said "It's what they had to say"

" Well? What the fuck did they have to say, spit it out! " I said getting annoyed.  Frustrated, that he hasn't gotten to the point.

"Someone left a bunch of flowers on my mother's grave" He hesitated looking at me.

"So, what's so bad about that?" I asked. Leaning back in my chair.

"They also blew up Ava's headstone"

"WHAT?" I yell, shocked. Standing up, knocking my chair backwards.

"Why in the hell! Would someone want do that?" I asked.

"The cops think it's to get father's attention or to send a message" he said.

"Message? What kind of message is that! Blowing up her headstone?" I say, pissed.

"Well, the cops are saying it could be a lot of different things!"

"Yeah, well what's things?" I asked, pacing around now like he was.

"1. It could've been something to do with what happened years ago when they died.

"2. Someone did it for attention, that they now have!"

"3. Just Dad's enemy's trying to make a point"

"4. To cause a distraction"

"Or"

"5. Just to piss my father off" He said. Using his fingers, counting reasons.

Ava was a really sore subject for the both of us. Just thinking about her, had me rubbing at my chest over the tattoo she'd given me. Looking closely at Jake, it seems it's effecting him as badly, considering she was his twin.

Taking a deep breath, I asked" How did your father react when they told him?"

"He was so... angry. He sent his men out to get answers. Then destroyed anything & everything he could get his hands on. Darla couldn't even calm him down"

Ehhh!, I can't stand the thought of that fucking woman!

Just him mentioning her had me annoyed. There's just something off with her and that spawn of a daughter she has that I want figured out. He met them six years ago when Darla started dating Mr. Night two year's after his wife's death and Brittany has been trying to take the place of Ava ever since. Jake can't stand Brittany, he only puts up with her for his father's sake. Lately, Brittany's been bugging the fuck out of me! Thinking she can just show up at my club at the oddest times, trying to get in my pants. At times, I feel sorry for Jake having to put up with her. I'll feel even more sorry for him if she becomes his stepsister. Darla has been dropping hints to Mr. Night that she wants him to propose.

Sometimes I think he is going to give in and do it!

Coming out of my thoughts I asked" What else is your father going to do about it?"

"I'm not sure yet, but we need to make our own plans. Cause something's just not adding up" he said, looking at me.

Jake and I have been broken since the day he and his father found his mother on the floor and sister missing. Ava was his world and mine, I loved her. Jake missed her, he didn't want to stop looking for her back then. Sometimes I think, he thinks she's still alive out there somewhere since they've never found her body. He walked over to the door before looking back at me "I have some digging around to do. Lets meet up later for a plan."

"Alright then, just give me a call when you're ready" I say, as he walked out the door.

After setting the chair back up, I sat back down thinking.

I need to tighten up security and more camera's in areas no one knows about. See if theres something amiss.
