Silas POV
The ride to the warehouse was filled with silence.
Phillip and I rode in one car and the rest of my men rode in another behind us.
I was filled with the need to get this over and done with, but I still wanted to be cautious.
I couldn't ignore the fact that this could be a trap and Diablo's men could be waiting for us there,
"Don't you think we should have some men stake it before we charge in? If it's a trap, we could lose a lot of men," Phillip asked, staring at me through the rearview mirror.
The thought had crossed my mind, but we didn't have a choice here..
We had wasted a lot of time while we were searching for this place, and I couldn't risk missing what was here.
"We don't have time to waste." I said to him, leaving no room for arguments.
"We've spent too long looking for this place. If we hesitate now, we might lose our chances."
I expected Phillip to understand what I meant because he knew how important this was.
Phillip's eyes flickered to me once more but he didn't press on. He turned his attention back to the road.
He knew better than to try to convince me to turn around. We were already so close
And I was his superior he and no choice but to believe me.
But still, I couldn't deny that he was right.
This could be a trap for all we know.
Diablo could have set the plan perfectly, knowing that I wouldn't back down
He gave me a bait that was too hard to resist and I bit it.
But that was the risk we had to take.
And if it truly was a trap, well, then I'd deal with it the only way I knew how.
By fighting back.
The warehouse came to sight and I met Phillip's eyes through the mirror once more.
It was finally time..
The area was deserted, as expected.
No one came out here after dark unless they had a death wish.
The perfect place for Diablo-to do whatever he wanted.
I clenched my fists tightly.
The feel of the cold metal gun tucked inside my jacket reassured me and slowly I relaxed.

Since when did I lose my cool! This was going to go exactly like we played.
But somehow, I couldn't shake off the feeling in my stomach.
I had to do this and get it over and done it, we had come too far to just back down.
As the car rolled to a stop a few hundred yards away from the warehouse, I took a deep breath, steadying myself for what
was to come.
The air was thick with the faint smell of the ocean hanging in the air, but underneath it, there was something else.

His eyes met mine once more, worry hidden in them.
