it collected before the morning and he was still waiting on a call from his daughter. He called Dimitri in and had him go find out what was going on. Her car wasn’t where Franklin said he had dropped her off and she wasn’t anywhere where she usually hung out. She usually didn’t just take of in the middle of the night.
The man was torn between his two kids. One was missing and hopefully okay, while there was Carl who had caused a lot of trouble. He didn’t want anything to happen to either one of them, but he knew that there would have to be some action taken on the son’s behalf. He also knew that Stella was a smart girl and could get herself out of whatever situation she was in. The very fact that she hadn’t figured it out yet had him nervous, but he tried to remind himself that she was in fact an adult, no longer his baby girl.
Sam finally got up the nerve to make a call and he was looking at his phone when it finally rang. It wasn’t his daughter’s phone number that came across the screen though, or one that he had ever seen before. There was a dread that settled in his stomach and he answered the phone call with trepidation. “Hello?”
“Hello Sam.” Sam knew instantly who it was. He hadn’t heard that voice in a long time, but it was hard to forget Lance if a person had talked to him before.
“Lance.”
“Ah, you are much like your daughter, very astute. I like her Sam. I like her a whole lot better than your boy right now. He has made me very unhappy.”
While Sam should have been listening, he stopped when Lance mentioned his daughter. There was also the way he said that he liked her, there was something there in his words then. “If you have done anything with Stella, Lance, this will not end well for you.”
“That is not really the tone I was expecting after your son got me for a whole lot of money.”
“I know. I have taken care of it.”
“Good, then we will have no problem.”
“If you have my daughter Lance, we already have problems.” Sam was still unable to wrap his brain around the reason that he hadn’t heard from Stella. He knew that it had to be something. “Just let her go and I will give you your money.”
Lance wasn’t sure how to respond. “We can meet and do an exchange and that will be that.”
Sam agreed, but he knew then that it would never be okay between the two gangs. One of them was going to have to go and Sam knew that it wasn’t going to be him.
They set a place for an hour away to meet and Sam was antsy as he hung up the phone. He felt the familiar rage inside of him boiling up. There was no way that he could just let it all go. It was too much and him.
Chapter 6
Lance on the other side of town was hanging up with a whole different feeling. He thought that it couldn’t have gone better. Well, besides Dotty throwing an utter fit when she saw him coming in with Stella. She didn’t help the matter by just giving her a look of distain and turning to him to tell him that he should get his yapping dog.
Dotty was mortified and he couldn’t help the grin that crossed his face. It was something that he had imagined a couple of times. She had not taken either thing well and had stomped upstairs, slamming more doors than was necessary to get there.
Now he looked at her and she smiled back at him innocently much like she had before. “I take it, it was good news?”
“Yep. Your father still loves you and you will be back home in your own bed tonight.”
“Just like that?”
“You were right Stella. He did want to fix it and it looked like he already has. Fixed my end better than if it had never been taken in the first place, so yeah, just like that. It makes me think that I thought wrong about your father this whole time. If only he didn’t have such an idiot son. If only Carl could be more like his sister. “
“I told you he wouldn’t let it happen. My father is very big on doing the right thing.”
His eyes saw her fidgeting with his
