Chapter 248: Lighting the Internet Aflame Yet Again
Alex and La Madre had reached an impasse. The mature drug queen wanted to get rid of Isabella as she saw the young beauty as nothing more than a threat to her operations. While Alex knew that the only way he was going to escape from this arc with his life intact was to conquer all the heroines.
This led Alex to fight for Isabella in a way that if she were to have born witness, would have easily triggered a conquest. Thus, there was a stern look on Alex’s face as he negotiated with the most ruthless woman south of the border.
“I understand that you think Isabella is a threat, and if she remains south of the border, then yes she might very well be. Which is why I propose that I take her north with me to the United States after I have concluded my business here.
She can live with me, and I will ensure that she has no contact with those remnants of Jalisco who may want to use her as a figurehead. This way the girl lives, and is not a threat to you. Both of our conditions are satisfied... There is no way you can deny this compromise!”
Maria watched Alex’s expression turn stern, almost as if he was ready to take on the entire cartel he helped build into the powerhouse it was today just for the sake of Isabella, and inwardly she felt slightly envious of the young woman, yet she remained silent, and instead sulked as she watched La Madre mull over Alex’s proposal.
The mature beauty thought about Alex’s offer for some time... It was true that the only way Isabella remained a threat to the Empire, which she planned to build, was if she ever returned to Mexico. While the Zetas would be able to operate north of the border once this war was over. Alex had the means to keep the bitch under control.
After thinking about it for some time, La Madre accepted this compromise, while adding one condition of her own.
“Alright fine... If you can convince the girl to never return to Mexico, and behave herself while living in America, I will accept this offer of yours. But in addition to this, she will need to change her surname, and allow me to fake her execution.... I can’t have the name Isabella Ramirez floating about, even north of the border. You must understand my position...”
Alex nodded his head in agreement with La Madre’s terms and was quick to add his own stipulation as she had just done.
“Fine... But to ensure you fulfill your promise to me, I will be the executioner in this bit of theater. To make it believable, I won’t even inform the girl of our plan. Once I fake her death, and get her to safety, you will never hear from her again...”
La Madre did not hesitate to accept this condition, which was slightly surprising to Alex as well as Maria.
Alex, however, pulled on his skull balaclava and took off his shirt. He was still dressed in his combat gear, as was common around the Zeta’s villa. With his combat pants and his gun belt on, he took a picture of himself before sending it onto social media with the caption.
“You’ll have to wait for your ass kicking... I’m busy with some shit south of the border. I’ll fuck you up once I’m done with Jalisco!”
The post went viral almost immediately after it was posted on social media. Alex had been dark on social media for months, and now he posts a picture of himself while dressed partially in tactical gear, while in the room of what is very clearly a mansion with such a suggestive caption.
Most people were not aware of the Jalisco Cartel or their infamous reputation. But those who saw Alex dressed like a hitman, and bragging about being in Jalisco, quickly pieced two and two together. Especially since they saw the figurine of Santa Muerte in the background of the picture which sat on Alex’s nightstand.
Social media immediately became lit aflame with conversations about Alex’s potential connection to the Mexican Drug Cartels.
“Holy shit... Is Baba Yaga involved with CJNG? Wouldn’t that make him an actual fucking gangster?”
However, someone else was quick to point out another potential possibility, somebody whose username ,and mannerisms immediately suggested it was none other than Sakura.
“Fuck no! Daddy isn’t involved with those betas, he’s a fucking Zeta! Notice how daddy said he would kick Vitor’s ass after he was done WITH Jalisco. I miss you daddy! We all do! Hurry up and win your war because I’m starting to go crazy without you!”
Though there were a million social media accounts all labeled with a similarly sexually suggestive name, all of which fought against Alex’s haters, people had begun to suspect it was one of his many girls, and thus the moment this comment was posted, people began to spread rumors that Alex had travelled to Mexico to take part in the Drug War. Which was all over the news lately, what with the collapse of the Gulf and Sinaloa Cartels.
This would, of course, cause Alex’s name to once more skyrocket to the top of the search engine. After all, he already had a vicious and sadistic reputation, thus many people genuinely believed somebody with such a high bloodlust might actually do something so incredibly stupid like travel to Mexico and fight in what was perhaps the most vicious and brutal war going on in the world at the moment.
As for Alex, he did not confirm or deny the allegations, despite the many attempts of journalists to contact him. Instead, he went dead silent again, leaving his mysterious post up to the imagination of the public.
