The Devil's Candy

Chapter 14

Jinnie and I are waiting outside by the car and the adrenaline rushing through me is keeping my blood pumping with excitement. We start squealing and jumping around all jittery like little kids on a sugar rush because we actually did it!

"Oh my god did you see the boys faces when we walked out?!" she asks me, "They were so shocked. We did good."

"Yeah," I agreed. I cannot believe we did it. We turn to see the guys come up and they seem impressed; everyone except Dom that is. He immediately storms up and my face goes from excitement to fright as he grips my arm tight, pulling me close to him.

"What the hell was that all about!" he shouts at me.

Shit he's mad.

"Did you see me in there?" I respond back to him flashing a nervous smile to play off my fright. The others watch in confusion. I tried to pull away, but his grip only tightened causing a sharp pain to shoot up my arm.

"Dom you're hurting me" He immediately lets go. His grip left a small hand mark.

"What's your problem?" I shouted, now I'm pissed. Who does he think he is grabbing me like that?

"I saw the way you threw yourself on Jackson."

Jinnie butts in and pushes him back, "What you saw was Amelia kicking ass and she got what you needed." She shows the address on the napkin.

Eli takes it off our hands and looks at us proud. He nods and gestures to Dom that we actually did it and shows the address to the others. Dom looks at me still pissed off

"We're supposed to meet him in an hour," I inform them.

"Bet, let's go then," Noah says all angsty. Dom hops into the car and slams the door not saying a word to any of us after he takes the napkin from Elijah.

"What crawled up his ass?" Jinnie asks. The guys shrug before getting in the cars they came in. Dom puts in the address into his phone; it's about 40 minutes away. We head to the place located in the outskirts of town and park in the woods out of sight of anyone who would drive by. We hop out of the vehicle and the boys check the area as Jinnie and I follow Noah toward a trail.

"If the address is right, the location should be seen just over the hill."

We walk ahead on the trail and look over a railing where a secluded warehouse stands within the woods.

How the hell are Jinnie and I going to get there?

The warehouse looks like it could come out of a horror scene; it's very suspicious. I see a few headlights pull up to the building and people exit their cars and go inside. Noah pulls out a pair of binoculars from his bag and takes a closer look. I kneel right next to him and he lets me get a look where I see a lot of guys in green and are heavily armed moving a large crate inside.

"That guy, Jackson, we didn't get to tell you earlier, but he works for a gang known as the Vipers."

"I've been wondering how you guys know who belongs to what," Jinnie comments, "Like how you make sure you don't shoot the wrong person?"

"We go by their colors," Olly chimes in as he walks over to us. He has a large duffle bag over his shoulder and places it down beside us, "Vipers signify themselves with the color green while we as you can see signify with black."

At that moment, I considered the guys' attire. I guess I've never really noticed but the guys do wear a lot of black. Sometimes a white or grey t-shirt and that one-time Olly wore orange. But it's usually all black all the time.
