Antonio, the clandestine ruler of all New York’s underworld, wielded an unquestionable influence. When he beckoned the gang leaders to his summons, they all responded with a prompt and eager enthusiasm.

The messages conveyed by Charlie, on the other hand, were shrouded in mystique. Following Charlie’s directives, he informed the gang leaders that a momentous and highly confidential business awaited discussion. Each leader was tasked with bringing a trusted confidant to a hidden meeting spot in Chinatown – a modest roast goose shop.

Moreover, Charlie stressed the utmost secrecy and exclusivity of this gathering, explaining that the choice of Chinatown was intended to keep prying eyes at bay. Antonio cautioned them never to breathe a word to anyone outside their inner circle, lest they risk permanent expulsion from the Zano family.

These gang leaders relied on Antonio for their livelihoods, their territorial sovereignty in New York, and his unwavering support. Without his backing, rival gangs under Antonio’s jurisdiction would undoubtedly encroach on their territories. This instilled a profound loyalty in the gangs, a fear that even the slightest dissatisfaction would result in their removal.

In essence, these New York gangs loyal to the Zano family were akin to a pack of fierce guard dogs, each with their own territory. The size and quality of their “food bowls” varied, but owing allegiance to the same master prevented any of them from coveting another’s resources.

Yet, should a dog be abandoned by its owner, the others would swiftly seize its provisions and eliminate the outcast, ensuring their own dominance.

An intriguing twist emerged as Daniel, the leader of the Burning Angels, arrived first at the rendezvous point in Chinatown, accompanied by his trusted confidant, Mike. During their journey, the two pondered Antonio’s enigmatic intentions, as he had revealed no specifics over the phone. They presumed their summons was in recognition of their recent successes in Chinatown, where they had unexpectedly triumphed over the Chinese Gang, conquering territories and the entire neighborhood.

To them, this was a remarkable feat, a sure sign that rewards and promotions awaited them in the ever- brightening future of the Burning Angels.

Upon parking outside the roast goose shop, they noticed the motorcycles belonging to some of their men. Mike found it somewhat surprising and commented, “Boss, those motorcycles seem to belong to Will and his associates.”

Daniel, undeterred, responded, “Will has been in Chinatown for days, dealing with the Chinese gang members and uncooperative Chinese vendors. He must have impressed the boss with his progress.”

Mike offered a discreet warning, “Boss, while I acknowledge that Will is your mistress’s brother, I can’t help but caution you to be cautious of him. He’s ambitious and might not be content with a subordinate role. His aspirations might surpass your current achievements. This favor he’s earned from the boss might pave the way for even greater prosperity in his future. Beware.”
