For fuck's sake, I'm smirking again, *damn.* Clearing my throat, my eyes raise to the receiving monitor I've installed in the backseat of this particular vehicle that I am seated in. I watch attentively as that fucker Juarez watches Red sleep. Then, he leans forward and whispers something to her that the microphones are unable to catch and my blood pressure spikes to a thousand. Juarez removes his coat and I immediately begin texting Portini to tell him to prepare
