Trust Must be Earned

Chapter 18

A/N: Hey little monsters! We need to talk! So I'm in a very happy committed relationship and he's amazing! That's also why updates have been so slow. I write because I can't handle reality but when reality is better than my dreams I'd rather be there. So updated will be a little bit slower and I'm really really sorry! Imma keep writing oh so don't worry I'm not going on hold or anything! Keep voting and commenting!!! I'll have an update up with in this week because the final gang mission is next!!!

I was packing bag after bag full of bogus drugs. This mission was a dangerous one. I mean every mission was, but we were actually sneaking into Gods' property. Dylan decided that it might be helpful to replace their drug supply with shitty shipments because the customers would drop them and come to us. Some may even get as angry as to kill. I didn't really care about what happened to the Gods' drug system. All I wanted for for the final mission to end well and this whole gang war to be over. Tatianna didn't ask for this life and she is risking everything by being with me. I want to be a normal couple, well as normal as we can be.

"Please be careful tonight." I heard a small voice. I turned away from my work to find Tatianna in just my t-shirt. Her hair was down in long waves as usual. Her beautiful brown eyes held sadness.

"I will be, angel. I always am." I pulled off my latex gloves and pulled her into me.

"I don't want you to go." She pleaded.

"I know baby, but this will all be over soon. It's almost done!" I promised.

"Are you sure I can't come?"

"Positive. We are going into the Gods' headquarters. I don't want to risk it. If I get hurt it's one thing but if you get hurt I'd never forgive myself. I can't lose you, baby girl." I explained. Tati just nodded and nestled our bodies even closer together.

"Dre?"

"Yeah, angel?"

"I can't loose you either."

"You won't. I promise. Now, go back upstairs, put your headphones on, and play our playlist. I'll be home before you know it." I kissed her forehead and she just nodded. As soon as I was sure that she was back in my bedroom I put a new pair of gloves on and finished packing each bag.

"AJ you ready?" X asked me.

"Yeah, I'm all good. Get Dylan." I said quickly. Each of us picked up two duffle bags and headed to Dylan's range rover. I have never been a religious person. I kinda gave up on the whole idea when I was little. I prayed and prayed for the pain to stop and it never did. But right now I was saying a prayer in my head as we pulled up to the head quarters. Javon should be out right now but here could be any number of guys inside that house. The three of us jumped out and grabbed our duffels.

"Ok boys, there is most likely an alarm system Derek is hacking it right now. We wait for him to tell us when he's in." Dylan explained. The three of us waited anxiously for about fifteen minutes before Derek called and said he was in. We had 10 minutes to get in and out before the video surveillance would go back to live feed and we'd be caught. I set my watch for exactly ten minutes. This was it.

"Go." X ordered in a harsh whisper. I took off running across the front lawn. Thank god for curtains. X picked the lock on the from door. Bags slung on our arms, silencers on our guns, and a plan in our heads we were ready for real action. There was fear in our hearts but absolutely nothing in our eyes for we are gang members and this how we roll.

"Clear!" I whispered fiercely. There was no one in the living room but I could hear the faint sound of a girl moaning. They were in the kitchen. I was positive.
