Chapter 421
Chapter 0421 So, | keep walking. A few owls and bats flew around but mostly it was quiet. Every now and then a cricket would sing but the birds will be taking over shortly.
Assingle thread of smoke in the distance told me | was just about there.
Since the bar sat on the outskirts of an abandoned town, it was easy to get to.
The town wasn’t actually abandoned but it was a hot spot for anything illegal. Darin actually put his town back in action for his sells. It was all undergrown so anyone that drove by wouldn't have a clue. Very well hidden and very well protected. The closer | got, the more security | noticed. If Ol’ Man Frank didn’t see if coming, | would be surprised. €»
The smell of something smoking was getting stronger and stronger.
Whatever he was cooking, it smelled delicious. As | got to the back of the house, the smoker was unmanned and smoke was spilling out of it.

CLICK! The sound of a gun being cocked was the loudest sound in the entire world. “Turn around slowly.” Frank growled. This man was short, plump but had a mean streak that would surprise Vin.
“I'm just saving your brisket.” | smirked as | turned around and faced him.
“| thought you were dead.” He didn’t lower his gun but he did lift his head

“Surprise!” “What are you doing here?” “Can we go inside and I'll tell you everything?” | asked and made a point to look around. “Like you ever tell me the truth.” He grumbled as he lowered his gun and started walking inside.

“Kiss my ass. | haven't got any money since Rip died. Do you know what that does to a business?” He turned and pointed a
finger at me. Sliding down in a seat, | just listened to him lecture. “I had to almost empty my savings! | | should be on the beach somewhere but
no! | am stuck here, doing the dirty work for sleazeballs of all kinds!” “It’s not like | am living on the beach and have a great life.” | said honestly.
“I've been on the run and doing things for vin.” “Vin doesn’t have the fucking manners that Rip had. Sure, Rip was a bastard but he had respect for us in the working community. Vin just walks all over us like we are fucking trash. | don’t plan on helping you do shit if it is for that man.” “Yes and no. | do have a job to do but it is to help my mate.” “You found a mate?” He looked at me in shock. Frank had a big mouth so | had to be careful about what | said but | needed him to trust me, allow me to stay and maybe even get someCopyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
information out of him.
“| did, awhile ago.” “Where is she?” “Being held by Vin. | need to do a job to prove my loyalty to Vin. With Rip going down and Colt being a pain in our ass, | need to prove my worth in this world.” | knew Vin would come ass so might as well see it. @ “There are other places you can go to sleep to prove yourself worthy.” Frank rolled his eyes at me.
