Chapter 33

Visions are worth fighting for. Why spend your life making someone else's dream?
- Tim Burton

I throw the door open, almost making it come off its hinges. Walking in, I stare at Jacob menacingly. The boys follow in behind me, locking their stares on Jacob.

Jacob and me say nothing as we look at each other. I read the expression on his face while waiting for him to say something. He looked stunned, but not shocked. "Well, I can't say I'm surprised that you would try to defeat me. I expected this from you." he sneers at me, then looks behind me. "So, how did she get y'all? Did she fuck you to get what she wanted, or do y'all have something against me too?" He asks, looking genuine.

I laugh, hard, at what Jacob said. "Me fuck them. I honestly thought you thought better of me. I mean you have been watching me all this time. You know that I don't trust many people anymore and that I only have feelings for one person in this group. He knows who he is, but that person is certainly not you." I say standing back up with a smirk on my face.

A scowl comes on his face. I feel the boys tense behind me at what he asked them earlier, but relax a little when I said what I said. "So, who are y'all supposed to be?" He asks, standing up behind his desk and leaning over it. I look behind me and lock eyes with Ace. I can see that he is asking me if he can tell them who they are. I nod in response.

I feel Ace step forward and stand beside me. He holds an emotionless expression on his face as he opens his mouth to speak.

"I'm a little offended that you haven't noticed who I, or the guys standing behind, are yet. I mean, I know we haven't shown our faces to anybody, but I would've thought you would have recognized my voice." He pauses. I watch Jacob's face fall.

Ace sighs and continues. "I mean I don't think your mafia is as advanced as we are, but I thought you had voice recognition somewhere up your sleeve. But it doesn't matter. With that look on your face, I think you already realized who we are, but I will make it clear for you and your pea-sized brain." he pauses again, but this time for effect. "We are the Phoenix mafia. Otherwise known as the most powerful mafia in the world." Ace smirks at Jacob. 

"Nice to meet you officially. Jacob, leader of Red Death mafia, my name is Ace Torres, the leader of the Phoenix mafia. The men behind me is my inner circle." He nods his head towards Lee, Zack and Jay.

"Why are you telling me this?" Jacob asks, becoming tense with this new information. "Why you may ask? Haha." Ace laughs coldly. "Because, you aren't going to survive this meeting. I like my privacy, that is why I keep my face hidden, but in this situation, I don't have or need to, because I already know you are going to die." He says, schooling his face to not show any emotions towards Jacob. 

Jacob on the other hand, you can read like a book. He has this ugly, pissed off look on his face. 

He sighs. "That is where you are wrong. You are on my turf, and you know what that means? I have more power and men on my side. I don't see how you can win this." Jacob laughs. "Oh, my sweet queen, you really are a handful. I love that about you, to be honest, but I think after I win this fight, I will make you watch as I kill everyone you love. I can't wait to see your face. I can't wait to watch you break and surrender to me." Jacob smiles evilly. 

"You know that isn't going to happen, Jacob." I tell him, scowling at him as he makes his way around his desk. "Oh, I think it is going to happen. And it'll all start," He pauses and smiles at me. He then moves aside his suit jacket and grabs his gun and holds it up. "now." I hear the gun click off safety and men come out of secret doorways in the room.

I watch as they surround us, each one of them holding some sort of weapon in their hands. Jacob smirks at me. "What are you going to do, my queen? Fight? Or Surrender?" He asks me.

I look him in the eyes, giving him one of my harshest glares. 

This dude is starting to piss me off.
