admit it, your friend JJ already filled me in.”
    “What’s it to you anyway? So I offed the bitch. Big deal.”
    Kyle didn’t know how he had expected to feel but this admission, after all this time, left him feeling weak with relief. Kyle must have eased his hold on Deshaun slightly because in an instant he had pushed himself away from the wall, turned and landed a punch to the right side of Kyle’s head. He went crashing down to the ground, stunned. Holding his hand to the side of his head he looked up, straight into the barrel of a gun. Rookie mistake! He’d forgotten to check him for weapons.
    “Not so cocky now are you? Now who the fuck are you?”
    Kyle answered, while trying to figure a way out of the mess he was in. “She was my wife.”
    “Ah , now I get it. You’re the dude that went to work for Luccio.”
    He laughed then and the sound set something off inside of Kyle. The weakness was gone and the rage was building until with a burst of speed he jumped to his feet and ran at him. Surprised, Deshaun fired his gun and Kyle felt himself get hit, the force of the bullet spinning him around, sending him to his knees.
    Determined that if he was going to die he was taking his wife’s murderer with him , he managed to grab his gun from his holster and, taking aim, he fired at the killer’s retreating back. Collapsing to the floor and losing blood fast, Kyle didn’t know whether he had hit him or not before his world went dark.

Chapter 16
    S itting across from Luccio, Sandy could feel her skin crawl. He was looking her up and down like she was a piece of steak he wanted to devour at any moment.
    “So , what makes you think I want to do anything to help Kyle?”
    Sandy knew she had to be very careful. If she said the wrong thing, he would just clam up and then Kyle would be on his own.
    “I don’t think for a minute you’d want to do anything to help him. But I do think you’d want to help yourself.” Sandy could see the calculation going on in his eyes. He was nothing if not a selfish man and she knew that if it meant helping himself he would sell his own grandmother.
    “What do you mean exactly? What are you offering?”
    S andy hid her smile. Gotcha! “Well you’re going to prison. There’s no doubt about that but where you serve your time is not set in stone. Help me and I’ll put a word in, say you helped us. I’m sure you’d much rather serve your time in one of the nicer prisons?” Sandy watched as he licked his lips, his tongue making him appear even more like a snake. Suppressing a shudder she forced herself to keep a smile on her face.
    “Can you guarantee it?” he asked, leaning forward.
    “No, you know I can’t do that.”
    He shook his head and lean ed back in his chair. “Then no deal.”
    Sandy was getting pissed off with this dance now and , not even pretending to smile anymore, she leaned forward. “No, I can’t guarantee it. But, what I can guarantee is that if you don’t help me I will make it my personal mission to make sure that you go to the worst prison possible where you will be welcomed with open arms once I let it be known how much you helped us.”
    For the first time Luccio looked a bit nervous and she could see that she had him. “Okay, okay, but I want it noted that I cooperated ok?”
    Sandy nodded.
    “Okay . I know where Deshaun hangs out. Well, where he used to hang out anyway, I don’t know if he still does.”
    “Okay, so spill.”
    He sighed heavily. “Okay, there’s this club on Acacia Street. A total shit hole. From what I hear, he’s there most nights dealing.”
    Without another word Sandy stood up and, with a screech, pushed the chair back from the table. As the door closed behind her she heard him shout out, “Don’t forget our deal!”
    A lmost at a run she left the jail and jumped into her car. She knew the club he was talking about. She considered calling for backup for about a second but knew that if she did it would invite all sorts
