Unexpected Love

•Chapter Thirty•

Christmas and New Years passed within a wink of an eye, everything was slowly going back to normal except for Lauren and Paul didn't leave. They wanted to keep an eye on Miya but at least thet helped out. Today was Miya's doctor's appointment, she wasn't showing just yet which meant she wanted to have this wedding before getting huge.

"Are you ready?" her mother came inside the room.

Miya groaned as she turned over, her hair was fuzzy and all over the place. She lifted then blanket over her face. "No" she stated.

"Too bad, you have to get up" her mother went over pulling the blanket back. "You have see this doctor, we need to proceed with the wedding" she said.

Miya groaned then got up out of bed, her feet touched the cold floor. It sent shivers down her spine. "Can you go out there? I need to get dressed" she stated.

Her mother nodded then hurried out the room, she stood out there just in case Miya needed her.

Few minutes later Miya walked out the room, she looked over at her mother. "Thank you even though you don't need to do this for me" she said.

"Of course I do, I'm your mother" she stated.

Miya nodded her head then made her way downstairs, then out the door with her mom. While those two were going to the doctor's office, Nick was on the south side dealing with Pete. "How is this the third time you've been robbed?" Nick crossed his arms. He wasn't very pleased, this had been happening ever since Pete joined the Lions.

"I don't understand how they know that I'll be showing up" Pete had the look of terror in his eyes. He had heard many things about Nick. "Sir, I've even changed the time of when I'll arrive somehow they still know" he guy said.

Nick did a neck twitch thing, he was growing more annoyed. "Who all knew about this?" he asked. "Don't lie" Nick reached behind his back pulling out his gun.

"That one guy, he had a scar on his face. He comes here on certain days, you had demoted him because he was stealing from you" Pete said.

"Little Rome" Nick chuckled. He shoom his head, he knew not to trust that weasel. "Go drag Little Rone fron his house" he looked at his men.

They nodded their heads then headed out the door. Nick soon turned his attention back to Pete. "I have a family you know?" it was more of a question.

Pete quickly nodded his head.

Nick chuckled slightly, he licked his lips. "I need to take care of them, my wedding is coming up, I'm trying to buy a house. But somehow you guys keep fucking up, which I'm growning very impatient to" Nick said. "I would hate to have to kill you" he added. His whole demeanor changed, his eyes draken from anger, the smirk he had was gone. He looked like a cold killer at this point.

The doors of the warehouse soon opened, the guys had found Lil Rome quick. They dragged him inside and tossed him in front of Nick. He was bleeding from the head. "He tried to run" one of the guys said.

Nick nodded then stepped forward, he took his foot. He wore black combat boots, they were good for stomping something or someone. He kicked Lil Rome in the ribs, which caused him to groan and roll over. Nick didn't care he kicked the man again. "Get up!" Nick yelled.

Lil Rome slowly stood to his feet, he was holding his sid. He glanced over at the Pete before turning hi attention back to Nick. "What's going on?" he asked.

"I think you know" Nick's voice was calm at this point. He looked over at Pete. "Him right?" he asked.

Pete just nodded his head, he didn't look at the man.

"You didn't get a good look at him, turn your head Pete" Nick growled.

Pete did what was asked, the man's face was bloody. Practically unrecognizable it made Pete sick to his stomach. He looked over at Nick and nodded.

"Alright" Nick placed his gun back where it was. He leaned down reaching inside his boot, he pulled a blade out. "I want you to kill him" Nick held it out. "I mean you said he's the only one that knows the location so it has to be him setting you up to be robbed" he said. Nick could tell the guy didn't want to do it but this was a gang not some high school play but real life. "Either you kill him or I off you both, your pick" he shrugged.

Pete took the knife, he looked over Lil Rome. He quickly stabbed him in his side. Lil Rome fell to the ground, he was dying slowly. Pete's hand was shaking, he dropped the knife.

"Get out of here, we'll clean this up" Nick said. "Go make my money back or that'll be you next time" he threatened.

Pete grabbed the bag then rushed out the door.

Nick sighed shaking his head, he went over helping Phoenix put the body up. "You guys go get buckets, water, soap, stain remover and clorox" he said.

The men nodded and did what was asked.
