I don't think there's much of a choice

Whatever happens, ill find the cunts doing this We will put thes they are Ain't nowhere they can hide from us forever

But will it be too late?

Is Vidal really our only choice?

Back to Ghost

“Vidal wants to ain”

Ghost is such a fuckin' idiot! Of all the girl's in the world for him to fall for it had to be a Vidal The fuckin' Mafia Don's cousin!

Did Ghost honestly believe he could fuck around with her without Vidal finding out?

Co around with her for as long as he did without so out?

Vidal keeps both his sister and cousin on a tight leash They can't do anything without hi about it

“And how does he suggest we do that?” Jett asks

Every fucker in the roo for the Prez to tell us what the fuck is going on

“I ain't gonna sugarcoat it, boys What Vidal is askin' ain't soainst this club and Vidal There ain't no comin' back from this for him”

“You're gonna kill him?”

“I don't have a choice, Gunner!”

Ah, Shit!

“Vidal wants Ghost dead for daring to touch his cousin, for disrespecting him and his family We do this, Vidal will sort this whole problem”

“You sold out our brother for help from that cunt!?!”

Shepard's on his feet, fists sla into Gunner “You think I'd sell any of you out, you little fuck?! There is no choice here Ghost went against this club and Vidal Either we deal with this and Vidal sorts this shit storm, or he kills Ghost hi left of Ghost for us to bury – and he fixes nothing Meaning our women and kids are stuck at the safe house for God kno long before Vidal decides to take them out in retaliation You really want a ith the mafia?!”

I watch him sink into his seat, deflated

No one speaks I don't think any of us can believe e're hearing

What the Prez is saying is true If we don't do this, Vidal will destroy everything that belongs to us, even our fa cunt But if he thinks it would end so easily he's wrong There are things he loves, things he'd want protecting Might take a while but I'dhe loves as payback

But Shepard is right, we don't want a ith theup against Vidal would be suicide for not only us but for our wo means more to any of us than they do We have to keep them safe no matter what

Ain't that e're doing all of this?

“The last thing I want is to do this, boys I've mulled it over and over, tryin' to find another way Fuck, I even forced Ghost to stay ahile I tried to sort this out But there is no other way Vidal won't back down I could put Ghost into hiding, but I think you all knohat that would mean for the rest of us”

Death

That's what it would mean

&n

bsp; “I've spoken to Ghost, he knohat's about to happen He chose his fate He wants to die by our hands The hands of his family” Prez's voice cracks a little He's like a father to most of us, the Prez, a brother to others This can't be easy for him
