Hot & Wild (De La Cruz Saga) (38 page)

The hombre turns to look at his partner and knows that
he will try to taste them. Yeah, he nods in agreement that he will participate,
smiling with a big evil grin.

Jamie sits back and observes the exchange
. I just
know that these guey’s will try to touch them. I will need to put some guards
in the room. Que la chengada, this is the part of my
trabajo
that I hate.
I need the money and I’m great at most of the job. I just hate it when it
involves mujers and niño’s
, ponders Jamie.

The car stops in front of the bella villa that is the
domain of el Mextli. Jamie orders los hombres to take las mujers to the room at
the very top floor.
This is the best room because it is huge and has its own
bano
, thinks Jamie.

This room also is the only one on the top floor. I
will put some guards that I can trust in the front of the door. Si, I will put
four guards because todos estos guey’s will be trying to get to these mujers. It
is not every day that these guey’s get to see, let alone have the opportunity
of touching or tasting them
,
contemplates Jamie, striding down the hall.

I better follow them up to the room and make sure that
they put them on the cama and tie their ankle to each cama. I will take their
sapatos.
I will not allow them to take their
ropa
. It is good
enough that they are on the top floor. Si, I know that el Mextli will not even
question this
.

“Hurry up!” yells Jamie at the guey’s. He’s tired of
seeing them look at the mujers as they walk
. I need to smack them in the head
,
thinks Jamie with annoyance. He follows through with his thought. He smacks the
hombres in the head with his whip.
Si, they better hurry
. “Hurry gueys!” 

Jamie sees one of his trusted hombres. “Benny, I want
you to get me four of the best guards that we have up to the top floor,” orders
Jamie. He turns to the other hombres.
Yeah, this makes them pissed off
,
thinks Jamie, grinning.

“Si,” replies Benny, walking away quickly to bring the
four guards to the top floor.

Jamie opens the door to the room that is made of a
thick wood. “Put the mujers on the cama and take off their sapatos!” barks Jamie,
in a rough angry voice, looking at them carefully with his gun in his hand. “Tie
one ankle to the cama with a chain that reaches the bano.”

Los hombres turn to glare at Jamie with anger.
He’s
going to make sure that we don’t get to taste these mujers
, thinks the wild
hombres.

Damn! I can just kill him for this
, thinks El
Zorro
furiously. He
does as he is told and walks out of the room quickly, not looking back.
I
need una cerverza. I’m going out of the villa to go into el
pueblo
.

The other two hombres didn’t bother to even get mad
knowing that they have to follow orders or be killed. It was the way of life
here in El Mextli domain.

Jamie stands on guard and watches los hombres leave.
Good
thing that these two hombres know better, but El Zorro is vicious. I will need
to take extra care to watch. The mujers are each on their own cama and have one
ankle tied to the bed post with enough chain to reach the bano
, thinks Jamie.

Jamie is satisfied and closes the room just as the
four guards are walking down the hall.
Si, I have the only key and these
guey’s are my hombres. I know that they will obey my orders
, thinks Jamie.

“I want you to stay here, keeping guard until I send
four other guards to relieve you. I don’t want anybody up on this floor. You
will advise me immediately when there’s anybody that is attempting to enter this
room,” orders Jamie, looking at his hombres. “I want two hombres at the top of
the stairs and two at the door. I will put two guards outside below the
window.”

“Si, patron,” reply all four hombres at the same time,
taking their posts.

Jamie is satisfied and goes to put the other two
guards below the window. Once he’s done securing the mujers, he goes to el
Mextli to advise him that the mujers are secured. Jamie knocked on the door and
waited for El Mextli to permit him to enter into his officina.

Hmmm, I have been having great suspicions that el
Mextli is gay. Why I think this, I really don’t know, but I feel it
, thinks Jamie.

“
Pasa
!” says el Mextli, looking out the
window thinking of his next move.
I’m just so smart and great. I have
managed to take control of Baja California in a very short time. I know I will
also take control of California in no time. I now have the mujers De La Cruz’s in
my manos. I will force la familia to commit to me and put some hombres to work
in the compania. Si, this is working out just as I planned,
contemplates el
Mextli.

Now, my next move will be to force Lopez to associate
with me. I will make my next move after I finish establishing this association
with the De La Cruz familia
.

“Si?” asks el Mextli, turning to look at his hombre.
Oh
damn, I really like Jamie. This is part of the reason that he’s my right hand. I
find Jamie real fascinating and virile, he
thinks.
Even though I
sometimes think that he’s not really cut out to be my right hand. I see a soft
spot every so often and I don’t like that. I need to establish my domain. I
need strong and vicious hombres working with me
.

“Si Mextli, las mujers are secured in the room and I
have put guards at the doors,” says Jamie looking, at El Mextli with some anger
and fierceness in his brown eyes.
I will not allow him to even want to look
at them
, he thinks.

El Mextli scrutinizes Jamie.
Si, he’s real
aggressive. I wonder what provoked this in him. I hardly ever see him show his
emotions. Si, this is what I like about my hombre. I wonder if he knows how
much I crave him. Right now is not the time to investigate this. I need to plan
my next move
. “Muy bien,” says el Mextli, going to pour himself a shot of
Tequila, gazing at Jamie with a raised eyebrow. “Do you want a shot?”

“Si,” answers Jamie, with relief that el Mextli didn’t
question his actions.
Hmmm, I just feel something else is on his mind
, Jamie
thinks.

He walks over to take the shot.
Si, I really need
this right now. It has been real stressful and I need something to undo some of
the knots in my shoulders
.

“I want to make sure that we make the call at the
right time this morning to put some pressure on the De La Cruz’s. It has worked
out real good and they have not alerted the police. Si, we need to call them in
the early a.m. to put some pressure. We will have the mujers talk to them. We
need to make sure that they are up for this. Make sure to keep them guarded. I
don’t want los hombres to abuse them just yet or for the mujers to escape,”
says el Mextli, walking to the window, looking out into the ocean.
It is a
wonderful noche
, he thinks. El Mextli takes a shot of Tequila with pleasure.

“Si, Mextli. That’s a great plan,” says Jamie,
relieved that he’s more concerned with the next step in his plans than in the
mujers.

“What time do you think would be good?” asks el Mextli,
turning to look at his hombre.

Si, I like him more every day
. He looks at his full firm lips.
I especially love
how his pants fit nice and tight
, thinks el Mextli, turning around so he
will not suspect.

I
hate
hiding my feelings from him and the entire
mundo
. I know
that I’m all hombre and I’m also very powerful. I could force him but that will
not do me any good and will not be very fulfilling. Maybe I should look at
someone else that will respond to my needs.
He shrugs his shoulders and
turns to Jamie.  El Mextli takes a manly stance and has vicious glint in his
eyes.
Si soy, el Mextli and I will not subordinate to him or anyone.

“
Pronto
, I will have the De La Cruz and Lopez
in my manos. I will then get control of other powerful wealthy familia’s in el
Northe de California. Si, California is muy
importante
and
powerful,” says el Mextli, going to sit at his desk. “We will make the call at
six in the morning.”

“Si,
Patron
. I will keep track of the mujers and
los guards,” says Jamie, relieved that he’s in charge of the mujers.

El Mextli looked at me in a very strange way a few minutes
ago. I’m not sure if what I saw was correct or just my imagination,
thinks Jamie.

I think that I will have to stop working for him after
this job is completed.
He turns to
walk out of the room with, anxiety. “Mextli, I will be back in an hour,” says Jamie,
walking out of the office.

Jamie walks outside to check on the guards that were
ordered to stand below the mujers window.
Si, they are right where I want
them,
thinks Jamie
.
He walks out into the yard to see what is going
on with the other hombres or what they are saying.

Upstairs in the room Bella wakes up and looks around
the room.
This is not the bano at the club. What happened and why I am waking
up in this strange bed
? thinks Bella. She looks around the room, shaking.

I need to go to the bano again.
She tries to move and realizes that she’s tied to the
bed with a chain on one ankle.

What is this? She turns and sees Paty and Jessy on
another cama, still sleeping. 
I will go to el bano and then go and wake
them up. We need to find out where we are and what we’re doing here,
thinks
Bella.  She takes a deep breath to stay calm.

We need to escape now. This is not good and we are not
waiting to find out who they are and what they want from us
.
Damn, I need to hurry to the toilet and try to
remember what Christian always told us to do when in this situation
.

Ahh, I barely made it and I don’t know why my bladder
is working up. I have to go to el bano often. Gracias, dios mio, the fool that
locked us up thought about allowing enough chain for us to go to el bano
.

The bano is all in black and white tile with chrome
faucets.
This is very interesting.
She looks to see if it’s clean.

I wonder how long we have been here
. She walks over to Paty and Jessy. Bella starts
moving each one at the shoulder with her manos, attempting to wake them.

Damn, they are out and my head hurts
. She touches the back of her head and feels the bump.
These bastardos hit me
, thinks Bella. She winches with the pain that spreads
through her head when she touches the bump.

I will sit next to Paty and Bella. I need to guard
them. I need to find a weapon. I’m going to look out the window and see if I
can see where we are and the layout of the casa
.

Slowly and softly, she opens the window trying to be
real quiet. She tries not to alert their kidnappers that she’s awake.

Dios mio, what a hermoso view, the ocean, the ocean?  Where
in the hell are we? This doesn’t sound or smell familiar.

Bella hears someone talking below and leans over very
quietly trying to hear what they were saying.

“Si, guey, El Zorro came back drunk and he’s pissed
off that he’s not able to get a taste of the hermosas mujeres that we have
locked up,” says one of the hombres, taking a smoke from his cigarette.

“Si, I heard that they are real hermosas, but we can’t
taste them right now. El Mextli wants to make sure that they are in good
condition when they make a call to the familia,” says the other hombre, taking
a drink of his cerverza.

“I want to see them. Todos say that they real
belleza,” says the hombre, taking another smoke from his cigarette. “Maybe
manana, El Mextli will allow us to taste them.”

“Si, I think that he will after they talk to their familia,”
says the hombre drinking his cerverza, smiling. “I can’t wait guey.”

I have heard enough to make me want to run now
, thinks Bella, going back into the room to wake up
Paty and Jessy.

We need to escape as quickly as possible. We are in
dangerous place with dangerous hombres. I think this is the drug cartel that
has been calling us. Damn, how did they get to us? We were with our esposos
, ponders Bella, with terror.

We went to the bano at the club. I went outside to get
some fresh air. What happened after that?  How did we get here
?

“Paty, Jessy, wake up” whispers Bella with urgency,
trying not to make noise, and alert the bastardos.

Please, Dios mio, help us escape. I don’t know how
long we have been here or where we are. Does the familia know what has
happened? What is Greg doing?
