She nods. "They want to rejoin the gang. Even though they were never kicked out. They need a boss, a leader like your father was so they tried to look and look for you to the ends of the earth and still there was no trace of you. It's like you fell off the face of the earth." I looked at my mother then Riker and back to her. "How do you know all this?" I asked in shock.
"Like I said I went to my home town and happened to run into some of the members there. I will talk more about that later. I still need to finish my story. I was so scared when I found out that he was in the largest gang. A few years later it had gotten worse. He would beat and rape me. He was just so angry. It was like he couldn't get enough of it, he only wanted more. The money, the girls, and the booze were just too much."
She pauses as tears run down her beautiful face. "Then I found out that I was pregnant with you. Oh, boy, was he furious when he found out. He only wanted one kid. To him, it was too much to even have a kid." She looked at Riker indicating that she was talking to him. "You didn't want to have that life you just wanted to be like every child. You would cry to me saying you wished you had a better life. A-And I would say I-I w-w-wished you-you did too. It broke my heart to say that but it was the truth for both of you boys." She broke down crying.
"Reyes, when you came to this world it was like something had snapped in that man. He kept saying that you would be the one to take over. But as you grew up you were like Riker for a while. Just a normal shy boy, who was bullied every day in your life. Then later you snapped kind of what your father would do. It was scary I didn't- I couldn't handle that so I faked my own death and went away leaving you guys here with-with that man. I'm so sorry! I hated myself every day for leaving you guys. Then I heard that he died. I had to make sure you guys were safe so I contacted my sister Aunt Dee and she told me that she had full custody until you turn eighteen. I made sure that I had her information down in the court papers that she is able to have you both until you turned eighteen. She said that she tried to do everything in her power to keep you away from gang life but it seemed like you were already in it without knowing it." She sniffled and wiped her eyes. Riker picks up a tissue box and hands it to her.
"I came back because I needed to see you." She said to me. "I want you to get out of that gang life and get help."
"Help? I don't need yours or anyone's help for that matter." I'm perfectly fine with the way I am. I stood up off the couch and looked into my mother's feared covered eyes. "And to think that I will ever walk away from my life as a gang leader? No! You are dead wrong." Riker grabs my arm roughly as a warning.
"Reyes calm-" I snapped my head towards him. "Shut the fuck up! I'm not done yet!" I growled at him. I look back at my mother. "You can't treat us like shit when we were kids then fake your death and come back after all these shitty years to tell me what to do. You have no right. Understand?" She looks up at me. "Do you understand me!" I yelled out and bawled my hands in a fist. She gulps and nods. "Yes, Reyes, I do understand. I'm sorry." She lets out a silent cry. I ignored it and walked passed my brother and went to the bathroom.
I turned on the water and stripped out of my bloody clothes and carefully got in the tub. The water burned the shit out of the wound causing me to let out a hiss and landed a punch through the wall of the bathtub. Eventually, the pain subsided and I cleaned my body.
After I was done, I got out and dried off then wrapped the towel around my waist. I opened the door and walked out. Mom and Riker were talking in hushed voices but stopped when I walked out into the living room. Their heads turned towards me, "I need some clothes."
My mom got up and went to her room. "Raizel-" I shook his hand to stop him from talking. "Don't. Don't even start with me, Riker. I'm too tired for this shit." He shook his head and sighed. My mother comes back with a black shirt and a pair of pants. "This is all that I have left. It's your fathers." She said nervously and handed the clothes to me shakily.
I grabbed the clothes from her. "Thanks" I grumbled out and went to the spare room.
I was laying in bed, in a spare bedroom. I could hear Riker and mom moving around in the living room. My mind went back to Artemis and Felicity. I hope that they got out. I know they did, I feel it. I think she should be fine without me for a month or two. I have something that I should do.
I'm going to make my gang larger, larger than before. I'm going to become powerful, un-fucking-stoppable. The king of all gangs. My queen and my little princess will be by my side along with my men.
My thoughts were interrupted by Riker coming into the room uninvited. "What do you want, brother?" I growled at him. "Do you want to go to Texas or what?" He crossed his arms over his chest. I set up straight and looked at me. "Be ready tonight we are going on a very long trip."
I will be back, my kitten. I have something to do.
