I chuckle. “You’ll have to give me more than that for what you’re asking.” He’s asking me to approve a hit on his father, but taking out the head of yet another Italian crime family will upset other serving families, not only the Italian ones. They’ll demand answers, and while my family isn’t obligated to answer, it does when asked.

Going around eliminating people for petty reasons will cause uncertainty and fear within our Body. Asking for Dominico’s eyes is pushing it as is.

“He’s trafficking,” Dom says.

“Trafficking what?”

“People.”

“What?” I hiss and step closer.

Dom nods.

“How long has this been going on?”

“At least two years, maybe more.”

“And how long have you known?”

“For sure that it was him…about three months.”

I step back. “You should’ve reported it.”

“Had to be sure.”

“And now you are?”

He jerks his head in a nod. “The other two idiots at the table are in on it. They’re passing a law with a large funding bill that’ll end up in the hands of traffickers who live in a place where corruption runs from the top. Their president is in on it. Everyone.”

“How do you know all this?”

“I tapped my father’s phone.”

Tapping the head of your family’s phone is a death sentence. “Is he not speaking on secure channels?” If he’s speaking about this openly, I’ll end him myself.

“He is, but his money bought me a top-notch education at the best tech school in the country, so I got physical with his equipment until I tapped it.”

“Who else can do what you did to his phone?”

“Not many, and they’d need time and access to him.”

“Is the information you have safe?”

“For now, but they’re getting bolder, counting on the Order’s secrecy and protection to keep the ring moving the merch.”

“You’re telling me they’re using our resources for a business the Head knows nothing about?”

“Indirectly. The people are moved alongside other products or deals. It’s a smart backdoor operation that nobody’s heard of.”

“Your dad isn’t that smart.”

“He’s just a player, which is why I’m bringing it to you. You can find the mastermind. My brother wants his girlfriend back.”

This must have something to do with the legislation Evans is poking around about, which means I need more information from Evans before I can okay Dom Junior’s hit on Dom Senior.

“I’ll have an answer for you by tomorrow night,” I tell him.

“I need it now.”
