Trappers 2: The truth

Chapter 29

Maria POV

*

"Are you kidding me?" I can't believe what I'm hearing.

"Wish I was Mrs. Montegue." I'm in a meeting with Kyng's lawyers. He's been incarcerated for the last 2 weeks. And KJ is in a foster home until further notice. "The evidence is piling up against him. Now she has a witness to this on set abuse on her and KJ."

"Kyng wouldn't do that. He loves KJ."

"We have to prove otherwise or he's going to jail for a long time." Man I want to cry right now. Santi and Harmony already lost one father. "There's something else."

"What now?"

"She's filing for sole custody of KJ. With this suit against Mr. Montegue she may win. Your best bet is to get your ducks in a row."

"Okay," I sighed. We shook hands and they left. "What am I supposed to do?"

"We have to prove her wrong," Tyson said. "We know she's lying but we need proof to back it up."

"We got you Maria," Chance said.

"We got a lot of work to do," I said. "I'm about to go see Kyng. Pick up Santi and Harmony for me?"

"Yeah. Tell him to hold his head up." We split ways. I just can't believe this bitch. These bitches are so sad. Willing to bring any and everybody down to make themselves better.

On the way to the prison I got a call from an unknown number. "Hello?"

"How you holding up Maria?" It was Jason.

"I'm doing what I can. Kyng said just because he's gone we're not going to stop business." Right now all I want is for my babies to come home. "I'm stressing out Jason. Now this bitch is trying to take KJ away for good."

"Damn. I wish I was there to help you. Just stay strong alright?"

That's all I've been hearing. Stay strong. Be strong. I've been strong since my mother died. I've been strong since I was raped I've been strong since papi died. Since I almost lost my sisters. I've been strong for years. Why do I have to keep being strong?

"Maria, it'll be okay. I promise."

"Thanks Jason." I pulled up to the prison. "I'll tell Kyng you called. When he gets out I'm sure the first thing he'll do is bring you home."

"Thanks. For everything you've done for my son. Just be strong for a little bit longer."

Dallas POV

*

The officers led me to the visiting space. Shit ain't been too bad in here but I'm ready to go home. I'm ready to hold my wife and hang with my kids man. But I was able to get the warden and some of the officers under my belt. I have a good deal of pull in here. Instead of meeting in the lobby for guests or guard surrounded room where I talk to the lawyers, we're meeting in a back room. We'll only be able to talk for about fifteen minutes since she's an off-the-books visitor. "Ten minutes," the guard said taking the cuffs off me. He let me in the room. My baby was standing there.

I went up and hugged her tight. I'm not going to lie a nigga felt emotional. I love this girl with everything in me and I'm scared as hell with her feeling so emotionally vulnerable and going through bull shit like this. She already admitted there's only so much she can take.

"You okay?" I know this is hard on Maria. She has a lot on her plate. Santi and Harmony are a mess without me or KJ and we're still looking for who killed Chase. Too much is happening around the same time and I know Maria can't handle it all on her own.

"Kyng I don't know what to do. Asiaa is getting all this evidence against you."

"You know that's not true right?"

"Yes," no hesitation whatsoever. "I just have to find something concrete to counter her claims. I just don't know how. Santi misses KJ so much and you. I just don't-"

"Calm down baby," I kissed her. Damn I'm ready to get home. "You're not in this alone. You're never alone. You'll find a way out of this I promise." She seemed a little bit more relaxed now. "How's Santi and Harmony?"

"Besides missing y'all, not too bad." She pulled out a piece of paper. "Santi made this for you." It was a picture he drew of his family. I mean he drew everybody. Tyson, Kiya, Tanisha, Drew, Box, Sophia, Andre, Chance, Carmela, Selena with a big stomach, Speed, and my mom. They were all drawn outside of the house. In the house was me, Maria, Harmony, and KJ. In the clouds he drew 2 angels. One said Chase and Marcus. Some tears fell out my eye. Damn I need my kids. "It's okay papi." It's not okay. After all these years I finally got what I wanted and now all of that could be ruined because of this bitch.

"Times up," the guard came in.

Maria kissed me. "I love you papi. We'll figure this out together." She kissed me again before leaving. Damn if I don't beat this I don't know what I'll do. I can't take much more of this behind bars shit. I need to be with my family and get my son back.

"You have a good woman," the guard said. Normally they don't talk to me and vice versa. "You're a good person Dallas. I can tell that. With a woman like her, you'll beat this. And hopefully stay out of here."

"Yeah." I looked at Santi's picture. I'm getting out of here. For my family. I'm beating this.
