Vanished in Chicago (Vanished)

“Shit. She sounds like the real deal.”
“Fuck yeah. She is dangerous and Jak, she is looking for her sister. Just last night she killed a guy connected to Jedrzej. From what I hear he gave her a name. It wasn’t either of ours or Miko’s, but it will bring her to Chicago.” I feel everything around me beginning to unravel and it is fucking with my head. “She fucking torched his dick while he was alive bro. This chick is epic.”
“Do we know why she killed Jedrzej?” I don’t give a shit, but my grandfather is asking, and I promised him I would find out.
“Yes. Seems he was trying to run prostitution out of one of the DeSantis clubs.” Figures. He was trash just like my father.
“How long do you think we have?”
“Before she makes it to Chicago, a few days. Before she hones in on us almost immediately. She doesn’t waste time. When she makes it to Chicago, she will know everything.”
“Good work. Are you heading back?”
“Yes. I can’t learn anything else here without compromising us more.”
“Be safe. See you soon.” The information that he just dropped on me is both intriguing and unsurprising. The problem is, I am running out of time to flush this fucker out and to figure out how to keep my woman without bringing war to our doorstep and losing her in the process.
Looking at my watch, I see I have a couple more hours before my princess gets out of school. Anya is in the kitchen right now preparing dinner for tonight. This is going to be the official introduction for her and my mom and even though I am not worried about my mom, I am unsure how my lady will behave. She is a wildcard on the best of days. The only time she is not giving me shit is when she is under me or over me, riding my cock. Fuck. I should not be thinking of that right now. I need to work out some of this tension.
I hit my gym in the basement with a vision of the bag as my father. If I get one more fucking text from him demanding I do something about Chiara I am going to blast him in his damn house while spitting in his face. Over and over, I punch the bag, sweat dripping from my body as I imagine being free of anything having to do with him. I love my grandfather for giving me a chance to reach my potential but the waste of space he gave birth to is working on becoming maggot food.
It is right here in this moment I realize what my play has to be. I am holding the answer in my hand, but can I, do it? The short answer is yes if what I think is happening is true. But will it work?
I have had to kill two more men in the last forty-eight hours. I started doing weekly phone inspections in the last two months since I realized there was a power struggle going on between me and my father. Stupid bastards think they can delete shit but what they don’t know is the chip in their phones comes to mine when I put in a code on theirs.
I found a few texts between Vlad and Miko, asking about my holdings and if my businesses were secure. Let’s just say he choked on his tongue before I ice picked him on my floor. Speaking of phone, I hear a text come in.
Tink: Finally done with class. Headed back.
Me: Missed you baby. Can’t wait to kiss you.
Smiling like a moron, I wipe my face and head upstairs to shower.
“Syn.”
“Mom, what are you doing here? You are early.”
“I know. I wanted to talk to you alone first. Are you sure this is a good idea, my son?”
“What do you mean?”
“I am worried about you. What do you really know about this girl? I don’t know the specifics, but I know enough. Can this really last?” The fucked-up part is she is not asking me anything I haven’t said to myself after she has fallen asleep, and I am up at night staring at her beautiful face. The difference is, I am usually wondering because in order to keep her, I might have to kill her sister and I have to question if she would love me then?
“I love you mama for worrying, but I promise you, this is right. You are going to love her. She is feisty, beautiful, and smart as hell. Plus, she is going to make you a grandma.” I know that will soften her up. “Now, I need to go get clean. I will see you in a few minutes.” I kiss her cheek and walk out. I have just enough time to jerk off in the shower and get dressed before she comes home. Yeah. Every second that I am not inside of her, I need to shoot one out.
