Hot & Spicy: De La Cruz Saga (44 page)

“Yeah, this is wonderful,” said Jessy, following Paty. “It smells lovely. I have never been in the garden before. No wonder Jacki and Ricky feel in love out here under the stars.”

“Si, Jessy, its real nice, and I have not been out in the garden before,” said Paty, turning the corner to see if she can see Bella. “Bella,” she calls out, looking at the benches that are under some trees.

Jessy is right behind her, looking for Bella and turning to look the other way to see if she can see her.

a thing. They are knocked out fast and efficiently. They never knew what happened.

Two large hombres dressed all in black and wore black ski masks … they quickly picked Jessy y Paty up like if they didn’t weigh more than ten pounds. They moved quickly and quietly because they know that in a few more minutes their hombres will be looking for them.

The two large hombres didn’t say a word, and nobody noticed them. They entered into the waiting black SUV that quickly transported them to a building located in the downtown area a few miles away from the nightclub.

The driver exits the SUV and quickly gathers Bella in his brazos. The other two hombres take Paty y Jessy entering the thirty-floor building.

They are anxious to get to the rooftop where the helicopter is waiting. Moving quickly and quietly, they entered the elevator to reach the rooftop. They covered the camera in the elevator with some black spray paint.

Finally after a few minutes the three hombres reached the rooftop and exited the elevator.

The helicopter is ready to leave and is waiting for los hombres to carry Bella, Paty, y Jessy onto the helicopter.

The mujers are still out and don’t realize that they are being taken out of the country and out of their hombres’ brazos.

One of the hombres pulls out his cell phone and quickly calls his commander. “Mextli, we have the cargo,” said Jaime, El Mextli’s right-hand hombre.

“Bien,” said El Mextli, ending the call, resting his back into his white sofa grinning, taking a drink of his tequila.
This has worked out magnificently. Now I have la familia De La Cruz en mis manos
, he thought with glee.

Jaime made another call to one of his hombres that is waiting in the club. “Prieto, deliver the package,” said Jaime, looking at his watch. Everything is working out on schedule.

“Hecho,” said Prieto, walking to the waiter to have the message delivered.

Jaime turns around to look at las tres hermosa mujers.
I know that their hombres are going to be ready to kill
, he thought, looking at each one with care.

Si, de verdad estan hermosas, and I want to get them locked up before todos estos gueys abuse them.

Jaime turns to look at each guey, warning them about touching the cargo.
I just can’t stomach having una mujer abused and much less these mujers que son todas unas reinas.

We should be there in a few more minutes, and I pray that El Mextli will not want to abuse them. I know that he just started his dominance over the Baja California and wants to demonstrate how vicious and ruthless he is.

The other cartel that is located in central of Mexico has the other prima. She is actually una FBI agent, and that is incredible that they managed to take her.

The United States government agencies are on high alert. I can imagine this getting even worse when the shit hits the fan esta noche. When Los De La Cruz familia realize that we have taken three more of their mujers.

Greg stands up to look over in the direction of el cuarto de mujers, wondering what is taking them so long.

He turns to look at Jose Enrique y Carlos with a raised eyebrow. “It’s taken a little too long for me,” he said, looking at them, waiting to see what they thought.

“Si, I was thinking the same,” said Jose Enrique, taking a drink of his cerveza, starting to stand up along with Carlos.

“I don’t like this,” said Carlos, starting to feel an ache in his corazon, starting to walk in the direction of el cuarto de mujers.

I wonder if I’m overreacting. Las mujers almost always take some sweet time in el cuarto de mujers
, he thought, walking rapidly and starting to get really anxious.

“Shit.”
I need to find Paty now before I have a heart attack with this immense fear that is taking over mi body
, he thought, almost running.

“Wait up,” said Greg, following close on Carlos’s heels.
This is not good. I can feel that something is happening to mi Bella
, he thought with his corazon starting to beat quick and harder, feeling as if it’s going to burst out of his chest.

“Gueys, I’m not feeling well,” said Jose Enrique when he arrives right behind Carlos y Greg, trying to control his breathing.

Hmm … I feel mi corazon aching, as if a fist is squeezing it real tight and I can’t breathe
, he thought, leaning over trying to relax.

“I’ll get a chica to go in and look for them,” said Carlos, approaching a chica that is sitting near el cuarto de mujers. “Excuse me, can you please go into el cuarto de mujers and ask for mi esposa?” asks Carlos with a smile, trying to look nice.

La chica looks at Carlos and smiles, nodding her cabeza. “Si, I can. What is tu esposa’s name?” she asks, standing up, thinking
how lucky some mujers are to have such guapo hombres.

“Paty, y muchas gracias,” said Carlos with relief, giving la chica some money for her effort.

“No, no es nada,” she said smiling, not wanting to take the money. “I’ll be back.” She went into la ladies’ cuarto and asked the two mujers that were there if they were Paty. They said no, and the other area is empty. The chica returns and advises Carlos. “Sorry but there were only two mujers in el cuarto de mujers.”

Carlos’s corazon starts to pound harder, making it hard to breathe. He thanks la chica. “Gracias.” turns to go to advise Jose Enrique y Greg.

“No estan en el cuarto de mujers,” said Carlos, taking deep breaths. “We need to get security to assist us in searching for them in the club.”

“Si,” said Greg, starting to turn to locate where the security is.

A waiter approaches Jose Enrique with a cerveza and note. “Señor De La Cruz?” asks the waiter, waiting for a response from Jose Enrique.

Jose Enrique looks at the waiter and cerveza, wondering what is up with this. “Si, soy De La Cruz,” he responds, waiting for the waiter to enlighten him.

“Si, this cerveza is sent over by el caballero at the bar with this note,” said the waiter, turning to indicate which hombre sent the cerveza y note.

The waiter cannot see the caballero, turns to Jose Enrique with a small unsure smile. “El caballero is not there anymore,” he said, handing over the tray to Jose Enrique.

Jose Enrique is looking at the bar and cannot see any caballero and is getting really anxious. He looks at Greg and Carlos that indicate to take the note.

“Jose Enrique, read the damn note,” said Carlos with frustration and anxiety.

Greg is very scared, anxious, and knows that something awful has happen to his baby. He quickly starts to ask the waiter questions on what the guey looks like.

“Tell us how this guey looks like,” demands Greg with controlled fury.

The waiter is getting scared by how furious and frustrated they look. “He is tall, dark, and looks mean,” said the waiter, starting to back away from them.

“Did you ever see him in the club before?” asks Greg, watching the waiter real close. “How long have you worked here?”

“Si, I have worked here for over dos años, and no I have never seen that hombre before,” said the waiter, starting to get pale.

Este hombre looks ready to kill me and I don’t know what’s going on
, thought the waiter. “Señor el hombre asked me to bring el Señor De La Cruz esta cerveza y nota.”

Greg can see that the waiter is starting to get scared.
He most likely didn’t know or ever seen the guey
, thought Greg. “I need you to give mi your full name and number,” he requests in an authoritative voz. Greg wants to have the intel in case they need to talk to him again.

“Si,” said the waiter, scared and anxious to get away from Greg.
Estos hombres estan muy enojado’s y no si por qué
, thought the waiter, starting to sweat.

“Jose Enrique, tell us what the damn nota dice!” demands Carlos with frustration, looking at Jose Enrique grow pale and scared.

Jose Enrique looks up with fear and anger in his ojos. “They took our mujers!” he shouts out in horror, frustration, and rage, looking around to see if he can see the guey that sent him the note.

Carlos takes the note away from Jose Enrique’s mano in frustration, not understanding what he meant. He reads the note aloud so Greg can hear.

“De La Cruz, we have your tesoros, y you will get them back when you agree to work with El Mextli el Rey de Baja California.”

Carlos lets out an anguished yell almost falling to his knees with the intense pain that he feels when he realizes that the cartel has his baby.

Greg turns and smashes his fist into the wall, yelling out in pain not believing that his Bella is in the ruthless manos of the cartel.

He is shaking with rage, looking for the waiter and going to him. “You will give me all the details that you can remember now,” he demands in a forceful and angry voz, pulling the waiter outside to get all the details.

Carlos follows Greg, pulling Jose Enrique along to hear all the details.

“Now tell us everything that you can remember about the guey that gave you the nota,” demands Greg with fury, trying to not take out his anger and frustration on the waiter.

“I told you that it’s the first time that I saw him in the club. He is tall, dark, and is wearing black shirt and pants. He has straight long black pelo to his shoulders and has a tattoo on his left forearm that looks like an Azteca Indian,” said the waiter, trembling with fear.

The waiter looks at these strong tall intense-looking hombres and is scared for his life.
It looks like someone is playing with these hombres, and I don’t want anything to do with it. Dios mio, help, I don’t know what’s going on.

“Okay, pero you better be available if I need any additional information. Here’s mi number if you see the guey in here, if you recall anything, anything at all,” said Greg, looking at the waiter, memorizing his cara. “Don’t try in hiding because I will find you.”

“Si,” said the waiter, trembling and ready to run back to work before they change their minds and start to beat him.

“You better not disappear because we will find you,” said Carlos, looking at his license that he withdrew from his wallet handing it over to Greg to write down his information.

“No, I will be available,” said the waiter, waiting for his wallet.

“Here,” said Greg shoving his wallet back to him and pushing him forward in the path to the club.

“What are we going to do? I don’t want the cartel to hurt our mujers. If we call the police they might hurt them,” said Jose Enrique, starting to panic.

“Jose Enrique, we’re going back to la casa, and we are going to call the government agency that has been working with you,” said Carlos, taking control of the situation and looking at Greg nod in agreement.

We can’t stay out of this now and not advise la familia that we’re CIA agents. Not when our mujers are in danger and fuck our jobs and careers
, thought Greg, looking at Carlos.

“Si, I’m in,” said Carlos, knowing full well what Greg is thinking. “Let’s go.”

“Okay,” said Greg, turning to go to his carro, knowing full well how angry la familia and CIA agency are going to be with him and Carlos.

“Come on, Jose Enrique, let’s get back to la casa,” said Carlos, walking him to his carro. “Do you want to leave mi carro here, and we can go in yours?” asks Carlos. “Mi carro is a rental.”

“Si, that sounds good,” said Jose Enrique, starting to snap out of this and controlling his fear and rage. “We need to do something before they hurt our mujers.”

“Si,” said Carlos, sitting in the passenger side, watching if Jose Enrique is now okay. He waits for Jose Enrique to get into el carro to start talking. “Jose Enrique, I need to tell you something real important.”
