Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 79

Chapter 79 Juan grinned maliciously at Andrew .

Not so tough now , are you ? What happened to all that talk about breaking my neck ? Get over here and beg me for a quick death ! Andrew stepped forward with a weary sigh .

You East Side lots sure talk a lot of trash , dont you ? Rocco and Juan froze , stunned by his words .

In front of hundreds of East Side gang members , this guy was not just unafraid he was openly mocking them .

f youre going to do some do it , Andrew said coldly .

Im tired of listening to you bark like dogs .

And Juan , I let you off easy before , but this time , Ill turn that bruised face of yours into something unrecognizable .

Anger quickly overwhelmed Juan , and he screamed , Rocco , tear this bastard apart ! I want him in pieces ! He had ruled the streets for over twenty years and never once had anyone pushed him this far .

Roccos eyes turned deadly as he gripped his blade and charged at Andrew .

Kid , youre really asking for death ! Laurens face turned icy as she reached into her purse for her gun .

Suddenly , a cold voice thundered through the room .

Anyone who touches Mr.

Lloyd is dead ! The shout was followed by the arrival of over two hundred men in black , all armed and quickly surrounding East Sides crew .

Rocco turned , his face twisting with frustration .

Mr.

Garner , why is South City showing up in such force ? With his men flanking him , Dylan walked out of the crowd .

He ignored Rocco completely as he approached Andrew .

Mr.

Lloyd , all of South Citys gang members are at your disposal , he said with deep respect .

The scene left Francesca and East Sides men completely stunned .

Since this is your territory , handle it as you see fit , he said , accepting Dylans support .

Dylan straightened up and walked to Rocco , kicking him in the knee and forcing him down .

Who gave you permission to stand in Mr.

Lloyds presence ? Are you declaring war on East Side ? Rocco shouted from his knees .

Dylan smirked , his voice dripping with contempt Tony might have the right to talk about war , but you ? Youre nothing .

Dont even think about talking to me like an equal .
