Lethal Elite

[40]

Pete's POV

I know Amilia's going to be mad at me for sending her out with Melanie of all people but I just want her to get her mind off of things. Besides I've got some things I need to figure out and I can't have her involved until I know exactly what we're getting into.

Briggs then walked over to me and patted me on my back. "Dude you seriously messed up big time."

"I know but they'll be fine." I quickly responded trying to shut him up.

"I mean putting Melanie and Amilia in the same place at the same time is a homicide waiting to happen." Avery said as he joined the conversation.

Tim then made his way over with a mouth full of food. "And they're basically by themselves I mean , that Asian Maid can't really stop those two if shit goes down. It's like the Lion and the lamb.... literally."

"But the question is who's the lion and who's the lamb?" Briggs asked.

"You know with Amilia having powers and not being able to use them when she wants and all."

Avery then started chuckling "Yeah and with Melanie-"

"Stop it!" I yelled. "And that "Asian maid" is Keith's housekeeper named Alice!"

"And Tim! keep your greasy fingers off of my sofa."

Tim began sucking the grease off of his fingers as he put his feet up on the end table.

"All do respect boss.. But it's technically not your sofa anymore."

I just decided to ignore this idiot by keeping my mind focused on Amilia. "Briggs what information did you get from the lady down in Louisiana?"

"Well apparently the lady is deceased." Briggs said while slapping her files down on the coffee table.

"Well that's no help. Great job Briggs " Avery mumbled.

"Calm down dingbat! I found a contact to the ladies brother named Joey and it led me to the ladies daughter named Ally."

"Hey!" Tim yelled as he got up to look at the files more closely.

"I know her ...she's some Emo broad that works down at that nightclub that we had to shut down. You know where all the shitt went down with Keith and Amilia."

"You mean Purple Diamonds? The one that Jax owns." I stated.

"Yeah that one!"

"Wait a second" Briggs whispered.

"Jax? The guy we've been tryna bust for forever now?"

"Yes" I answered.

"And how do you know this girl anyways Tim?"

Tim then got up to admire himself in the mirror. "Let's just say we used to rock the boat. If you know what I'm saying."

"Yeah man!" Briggs yelled while slapping hands with Tim.

"Can we focus please?" I shouted.

"Tim, do you still have contact with her?"

"Let's just say I always keep my broads on speed dial." Tim said while swinging out his phone to pull her number out.

"Great aren't you just the coolest!" I said sarcastically. 

"Try to get an updated address on her if she doesn't answer."

"And then what?" Asked Avery.

I then walked over to grab my jacket and car keys. "Then we're gonna go pay the little Emo witch a visit."

Amilia's POV

"Are you gonna tell me where we're going now?"

"No! Now stop asking questions!" Melanie yelled.

"Woah Mrs. Melanie you seem very tense." Alice said while rubbing her shoulders.

"For one Alice" Melanie said while smacking her hands away.

"It's Ms. Melanie and for two stop calling me that. It makes me feel old."

"We both know your not old Melanie it's impossible, old is not in your nature" Alice continued.

Melanie began looking at herself in the mirror like she was the best thing since sliced bread.

Alice then put her feet up on the window seal. "Besides, if someone looks old when they are young already then when they get older no one will be able to tell the difference."

Melanie then suddenly slammed on her breaks as I busted out in laughter. "Were here!" she shouted in anger.

The store was a fancy modern all white shop. It was one of those stores that you would just stare at through the window and not actually buy anything since you didn't have the money for it.

"Vintage?" I said to myself reading the name of the store.

"Yeah , that's a word you two aren't used to hearing." Melanie said while opening my door and waiting for me to get out.

"Come on we don't have all day." She continued.
