CHAPTER 589

She wasted no time again and went in to see Jade. Upon entering, Jade’s lips curled upwards in a knowing smile.

“What?” Asia asked feigning ignorance.

“You know what. You went to have another round with him.”

“I did not have sex with him.”

“Yeah, just foreplay. Ah!” she squealed again from over excitement.

Asia was beginning to wonder how she would be when she and Xander would have sex for the first time.

“I bet you would be giddy all over when you finally do it. Anyways, so right back at why I am here.”

.....

“Yes. Sorry. Gosh, I think I am becoming more like Macy. Oh, the poor brain of mine.”

Asia shook her head and walked over to the bed where she sat down.

“Hey, being naughty is not a bad thing, you know. I was just naughty with Aramis and I loved every part of it. My body needed that release. It had been a while.”

“Yeah. Okay, time for business. Phew!”

She stood up and made her way to the desk in her room and picked up a piece of cardboard paper she had on it with a pencil and walked back to the bed and sat down with legs crossed as she faced Asia.

“We need to act against Anders. Those vile bastards need a show and I need to contact your father.”

“Okay. It is about time you deliver your first blow as Mafia Lord of Moon Crest. Let them fill your rage and know you live on.”

“Yes. I went there and his house is heavily guarded.”

“You could have sneaked in, still.”

“No. Xander was right. I could have sneaked in and things would get messed up. We do not know what diabolical thing he has set up in that mansion.”

“I doubt he would be that way.”

“No Asia. Bring your head away from the clouds. This is Zale we are talking about here. He would know that Xander would come for him and make adequate preparations, it is best we did not test it out and then something happens and we get caught.”

“Yeah,” she heaved out a deep sigh. “You are right babe. It should be all part of his plan. To make you all drop your guard against him, while his aim would be for the dragons.”

“They are sacred beings. I cannot allow Zale to get his hands on them. He may think capturing one and having total control of him would make him Lord of all Moon Crest and Star City.”

“Not just that, except the dragons, wishes to unveil themselves, he would rule and be Lord.”

“We cannot allow that, no matter what.”

“So what plan do you have?” Asia asked, bringing her attention back to the matter at hand.

“We would make a call to Arctic, he should have more news coming from the outside as compared to us.”

‘Sure. I suggest we hit him where he least expects,” Asia suggested.

“Yes, I was thinking the same. Since he had made everyone believe he was weak, he would expect us to attack him at home to kill him.”

“Exactly. But we would be taking another route,” Asia completed her sentence for her. She leaned forward, picking up the cardboard and assessing it with her eyes.

Jade watched as her friend read her little plot of the towns and places around them.

“Umm, this is not bad. Also, I think we can do more.”

“How. Please tell me.”

“You know I was with them for some time and in the course of that time frame, I was transported from one place to another. I noticed they used the seaport.”

“The sea?”

“Yes. Do not forget your father was going to attack, I mean they made Xander think he was going to attack with ships and all, sailing for his city and maybe finding out their lair.”

“That was not possible.”

“Anything is possible with Zale Ander, Jade. And Xander did not get the chance to investigate properly.”

“Yes, but the frost family, our ships and boats are mainly not for fighting and rarely leave port. We make our trips once a week and that is why we transport goods in mass to their place.”

“We know this but only those doing business with us, know. Any other person do not.”

“You are right. That was why it was easy to trick Xander. It would have taken him longer to get that information and time was what he did not have.”

“Okay. So, they have cargos going to and for in sea?”

“Yes, and that, I believe they have coke in it as well. I could smell it below deck to avoid authorities. Although not that the idiotic authorities we have, custom could do anything. I was literally their prisoner.”

“Alright then. We destroy their next shipment of cocaine. Also, I need to know, where their warehouse is? I know they have one leading across the sea to St Jaime, but I believe in town and in Criss Cross estate.”

“Yes, but they have three more in the city. They are all secret warehouses. I was kept in one while they did their shady deals. It was during one of the times their dealers came that I heard them make mention of the others.”

“Oh. Good. I should say every disappointment is a blessing. Who would have thought that kidnapping you, would give you access to the information?”

“No one. Not even I but when I was on that ship, I knew I needed to keep my eyes and ears open should in case I escape or get out of this, I could tell you.”

“Thanks.”

“That day as well they thought I was asleep and spoke freely. At first, I thought I was at Criss Cross until they mentioned the others.”

“Where are they?”

“Ziller’s Air, Nato’s End and Alberto’s Lair.”

“Huh? Are those streets names?”

“Yes, and when I made an acronym of it, they stand for Z.A.N.E. A.”
