The atmosphere grew heavy as Drake emerged with his men.
"Give up," he said. "Your men have been held off."
The masked man laughed coldly, "What a trap! The new generation is impressive. But do you think I have no plan B?"
Debra's instincts flared at his words, but before she could react, the icy press of a gun barrel jammed against the back of her skull froze her in place.
"What are you doing?" Erica shouted furiously.
Fermin showed no trace of his earlier panic. His expression had shifted to one of detached amusement.
"Brother?" Liza stared in disbelief.
Marion instinctively stepped forward, only to freeze when he saw the weapon trained on Debra. His hand tightened around the pistol at his waist, ready to strike at the first opening.
Fermin smirked, "Don't move, Marion. I know you're fast, but are you willing to gamble Debra's life on it?"
Randy pointed an accusing finger. "Why betray us?"
"How naïve!" Fermin's voice dripped with disdain. "We're all businesspeople here driven by interests. But why waste breath explaining to fools? Mrs. Houston, cooperate, or this barrel might slip."
