The Runaway and the Enforcer

Beau, thirty-five, is a gangland enforcer who has gone into hiding rather than following the orders of his boss, Mercer, to harm a rival's kid. Now, all Beau wants to do is eliminate Mercer before getting out of town. When Rick, an eighteen-year-old denizen of the streets, witnesses Beau killing one of Mercer's men who has found him, Beau takes Rick under his wing instead of killing him, as well. He offers Rick a place to stay while he figures out how to put his plan to take Mercer out into action -- without ending up dead himself. Befriending Rick is an act Beau may come to regret. Rick convinces Beau to take him along when he leaves town -- thus working his way into Beau's dangerous life on the run -- and perhaps, into his heart, if Beau can come to grips with the fact that Rick is half his age. Note: This story contains scenes of graphic violence.

Chapter 45

“This is…Damn, I’ve seen pictures, but this is so much better,” Rick said as they drove into the heart of the city.

“Beautiful, isn’t it?” Beau replied. He looked at the buildings, the people, the homes, and wondered why he’d ever left. He knew the reason, of course. I wanted more. I wanted…everything.

A few minutes later, he pulled into a parking space on the street.

“This is where he lives?” Rick asked, his eyes widening in surprise. “It’s a house. I mean…a real house. A big one.”

Beau chuckled. “You thought he’d be living in an apartment with one of those balconies with the wrought iron railings, or one of the smaller houses we passed on the way in?”

“Well…Maybe?”

“Nope. This is LeRoy we’re talking about. He likes things big. It suits him. Come on. You’ll meet him and see why.”

Beau led the way through the gate in the wrought iron fence, up the path to the front porch. When they got there, he rang the bell. Seconds later the door opened.
