“I will,” Carla said ending the call as she got out of bed and got to work.
Black dropped the phone on the couch next to him and then he looked at Carter. “What’s going on with Rona?” he asked thinking that Rona had a hand in this, but it was just a feeling.
“You think she’s got something to do with this?” Bobby asked, because he did.
“I do. she couldn’t out fight us, so this would be the next logical step.”
“We bombed five of her spots tonight,” Carter said.
“What?” Black asked.
“Rain had us bomb five of her spots.”
“I heard you.”
“She said that you said to kill her.”
Black chuckled and shook his head. “I told her that it was her move. Told her to draw her out and make Rona come to her.”
“You know as well as I do that all Rain heard you say was kill her,” Bobby said.
“Yeah,” he laughed. “And to Rain, bombing her spots is drawing Rona out.”
“So she did exactly what you said,” Bobby added.
Carter sat quietly for a second or two, thinking whether he wanted to tell Black and Bobby the rest of it, but knowing it was an easy choice.
“After we bombed the spots, me her and Carla went to the Baccarat Hotel to kill her.”
“Is she dead?” Bobby asked.
“No. a little while after we got there, Kirk and Dawkins showed up, so we left and came back here. Bautista and Dickerson were her waiting when we got here.”
“I wonder what Kirk was doing there?” Bobby inquired.
“He’s working Doc’s murder.” Black paused. “That means he’s on to her too.”
“That’s what Rain thought,” Carter said.
“You gonna call him too?” Bobby asked.
“Not yet. I wanna wait until I heard from Tamia and Carla first.” Black got up and walked to the bar. “All we can do now is wait.”
Bobby laughed. “Back in the old Late Night days, we would have been waiting in the VIP room being entertained by four or five sexy mugs.”
Black chuckled. “Did I tell you that I saw Lo-Lo a couple of weeks ago?”
“No. how’s she doing?”
“She’s doing great. Her and Anya are still together, they adopted a couple of kids. Get this; Anya’s teaches third grade and Lo-Lo’s a dental assistant.”
“Didn’t see that coming,” Bobby laughed.
“Neither did I, Bob, neither did I.”
It was almost an hour later when lieutenant Adams called back with the information that Black had requested.
“What did you find out?”
