arrested and when she couldn’t reach Breeze she had a gut feeling that she was being held too. Surely they had intended to come for her next, but Miamor moved to her own beat. She wasn’t being taken into custody without representation.
    She rode in the back of the plush interior of the Maybach as her driver guided through the city’s streets. Miamor’s chest heaved as anxiety crept into her bones. Today her worst fear was coming true. She was about to go up against the law. Most who did it had no wins, but with the team of sharks that Carter had left her with she was confident that she could come out of things unscathed. The car arrived at her destination and Miamor saw that Carter’s legal team was waiting at the top of the steps. Steve Rosenberg, the best esquire in the city, was already on retainer. Standing confident and dapper as ever in a Brooks Brothers suit, he waited with a briefcase in hand. Miamor waited for her driver to open her door, then she emerged from the vehicle.
    â€œMs. Matthews, I’m glad you were smart enough to call me,” he said as she shook his hand.
    â€œThank you for coming, Mr. Rosenberg,” she replied anxiously.
    â€œLooks like they’re reaching a bit. They do have extensive evidence on Carter, Zyir, and Monroe, but seeing as though they are now deceased that pigeonholes their investigation. They’re using scare tactics to try and get an informant out of you ladies. The Cartel has been responsible for drugs and crime in this city. They need a kingpin to tie it to, but in this case they are willing to settle for a queen pin. Since they can’t get your men, they now are gunning for the three of you.”
    â€œThey have Leena and Breeze. Have they turned them?” Miamor asked, as she bit her inner jaw, hoping that the ladies could stand tall under pressure.
    â€œNot yet, but let’s go get them out of there before one of them do. The DEA has been known to flip the most hardened of criminals.”
    Just seeing the face of such a prestigious defense attorney turned the tables in the girls’ favor. Within an hour Breeze and Leena were released, but the struggle was far from over.
    â€œThey’ll keep coming for you. As long as they have Estes’s cooperation, it’s only a matter of time before they bring indictments down on anyone he’s naming. I’ll do more research in the morning to find out what we’re up against. I’ll be in touch,” Rosenberg said.
    â€œWhat about my son?” Leena asked urgently.
    â€œI’ve already made arrangements to have him returned to you. As soon as they process the paperwork a caseworker will drop him off to your home. Shouldn’t take more than a few hours.”
    He bid adieu to the ladies and they each watched him pull away.
    â€œThey found the plane,” Breeze informed sadly as tears flooded her eyes. “It crashed in the middle of the ocean. Divers are still looking for their bodies.”
    â€œWhat are we going to do? Everything is falling apart,” Leena whispered. The three women formed a small circle and put their arms around one another, creating a circle of power . . . street royalty. They were the queens who would inherit the throne.
    â€œWe do what we have to do. We take over The Cartel,” Miamor replied. “And the first thing on the agenda is to clear our names.” She turned sympathetically toward Breeze. “I know that Estes is your grandfather, but—”
    Breeze put her hand up and interrupted. “Do what needs to be done. If he’s talking it’ll be well deserved anyway. I’m numb to the death around me by now. It doesn’t even matter.”
    â€œDo you guys know what this means? We can’t just step in their shoes. I just sat back and spent the money. I’m not in the streets. I don’t know the first thing about running anything . . . I can’t do this,” Leena
