Daughter of a Gun ➟ Reece Bibby ✔

chapter twenty seven

The next morning we woke up in each other's arms. It all seemed like it was going to be nice until I saw the river of notifications flowing into Reece's phone. Somehow the entire gang found out about what happened last night and they were threatening him. They were sending him death threats. I couldn't have that. I had to do something about it but once in a blue moon I had no idea what.
I took his phone while he was still asleep and deleted all the messages before he could see them. We went on with our day just like nothing happened. We met up with the rest of the inner circle including Blake and George at our ex-leader's mansion and discussed all the tasks that we had to give to the others. "I heard about some guys dealing some kind of dangerous drugs at school the other day. I saw one of my classmates getting some from them. Should we do something about this?" asked Liam, our youngest member. I remember when he first joined last year. He was 16 and helpless. His parents were part of the gang but they kept him away from this world for his own safety. He joined us after they got murdered during one of their tasks. "We definitely should. But you'll need backup if you gotta go after them. How old are they?" asked Richard, our oldest and wisest member. He's been around since forever. He was the one who taught me how to hold a gun properly. He was 56 but had the wrinkles of a 70 years old. Reece might have been our ex-leader's right hand but Richard did all of the dirty work. He always helped us with tasks and always had our backs. He was that one member that you could've always reach out to for support. "They are 2 juniors and a senior. I'd definitely need backup going against them." answered Liam. "Okay, Liam. You shall take Mike and Jack with you. They are both seniors so they can back you up at school. Outside the school you can reach up to Dallon or Scarlet. Thank you for bringing it up." said Reece. The leader position fitted him so well. "Anyone else got anything else to say?" I asked. "I've heard about about recent shooting at a local coffee shop. There are rumours that it was settling of scores between another gang and someone who didn't want to do something for them." said Kevin, George's main ally. "Should I try and find out more about that or it isn't our business." he asked. "Well, if another gang is implicated in this we shouldn't shove our noses into it but we should find out who they were trying to make to do something for them. They might be one of our people." said Reece. "We can try that but I'd rather stay out of it." said Blake. He was always afraid of starting a gang war. I knew of the existence of the other gang and I was sure that they were nothing like us. They've had trouble with the law many times. They were doing the exact opposite of us but I knew for sure that if we took any kind of action against them they would liquidate us all. "I wouldn't risk going against them." I told Reece. "But Kevin and George could try and find out who was the victim." I added. "Alright then, Kev, G, you heard your task." said Reece. "With these all being said I call this meeting ended." he said standing up from the table where we were all standing.
Before everyone left the meeting room I stopped Richard. I needed someone to help me about Reece's threats. I had to take action against those people. "Hey, Rich. Wait up." I said as he wanted to exit the room. "What's wrong, Freya?" he asked me. "I need some help. You might've heard what happened last night. This morning Reece got a shit ton of threatening messages and we should do something about it. Could you help me find out who are the ones that want him taken down? I want them taken down." I told him. "I have the perfect plan for this." he told me. "Just give me the numbers of those people and I'll have it all figured out by tomorrow." he added. "Thank you so much!" I exclaimed as I ran out of the room after Reece.
