A five year time skip.
Omniscient
Now at the age of five Alonzo was fully aware of his mother lifestyle.
He roamed around the house sometimes looking through the her things to understand her better. But it was no use, she hid her things well.
She couldn't take the risks of him becoming her.
Whether he knew it or not she kept things hidden for his protection. She manage to stay off the grid for five years.
No longer in a situation with Javelin but he still spent time with Alonzo. She still worked with her uncle Jacs. They now owned many clubs, and businesses.
She was now twenty four. But she had grown and matured, she no longer retaliated off of impulse she had to be smarter considering she had a son who mimicked every little thing she did.
It also had been five years since she had killed somebody. A couple years back she wouldn't have expected to catch a break but some how she was able to.
She had to fake her death and move off the grid. Not even knowing that sooner or later she would have to make a appearance.
"Hello?" She asks as she answered the phone. "We need you down at the club Ms. Santiago somebody is stealing goods." The voice on the other end spoke out.
She sucked her teeth thinking about who it could be. Cause honestly who was stupid enough to do her dirty?
"I'll be there in a few." She says before hanging up. She then made her way to Alonzo's room to see if he was ready so she could take him to school.
Alonzo sat on his bed fully dressed just allowing his eyes to wander around the room. "Some on ya mind love?" She asks. He shook his head no getting up from the bed grabbing his backpack.
"I'm okay mommy." He says as he walked passed her. She nodded her head and followed behind him.
(P.s don't kill me y'all, I had to do a time skip to get to the action and the point of it all)

"You in charge of everything, how you let somebody steal from me?" I ask confused. Matthew was in charger of most of the stuff in the club.
"You told me you were ready for that type of responsibility and now my shit missing?" I ask.
"Call everybody up, I'm bout to get to the bottom of this." I say before leaving out of the section and to my office.
I walked up the spiral stairs and unlocked my office. I sat down my seat and looked through the papers. Just wait till Jacs find out he really gone set shit off.
A few minutes later a couple knocks were heard at the door. "Come in." I say lowly.
The door opened and in walked all of the workers at the club. From strippers to caters to bartenders.
I studied all of their facial expressions looking to see who would give their self away.
"I guess y'all wondering what I want at this time of night huh?" I ask with a chuckle.
"Well somebody stealing from me and I need to know who." I say with a smirk on my face.
Everybody looked around at each other. Causing me to bam my hand down onto my desk.
"I need y'all to start talking hell, money doesn't grown feet and just start walking me and y'all both know that." I say as I leaned back in my chair.
"I didn't do it." One of the bartenders says. "Neither did I." One of the strippers says.
"Well somebody did, and when I find out who just know ya will no longer be able to walk y'all dismissed." I say waving my hand at them.
Everybody began piling out of the room. I thought it was clear until I looked up. "Wassup Tamia?" I ask as she took a seat.
"I ain't no snitch Ms. Santiago but I know you gone set shit off and I can't afford to get caught up in the crossfire so I'm just gone let you know." She says as she went into her bag and pulled out her phone.
She showed me a picture of one of the strippers going into a safe. "When was this?" I ask .
"A week ago." She says as she looked around the room. "Why you just now telling me?" I ask amused.
"I didn't wanna come off at a snitch but I know how you get down and I don't want no trouble with you." She tells me as she shook her leg violently.
"Something tells me you know more than you are telling me, you too timid right now." I say as I looked down at my desk.
"They plotting on you Ms.Santiago, I heard them talking about it in the dressing room." She says.
"Who?" I ask. She didn't say anything she looked around.
"Who plotting on me Tamia?" I ask once again. She just busted out crying. "I can't really say to much Ms. Santiago they might find me." She says.
"Who might find you?" I ask utterly confused at this point.
She had got a message and got up from her seat and ran out of the room.
At this point I was more than confused apparently somebody in my club was working with the other side.
I picked up the phone and called my uncle. He picked up on the second ring. "Wassup Niece?" He asks.
"Uhm, I need you to come down to the club." I say. It went quiet on his end then I heard shuffling. "Alright, I'll be there in a few." He tells me before he hangs up.
I get up from my seat and decide to take a look around the club. I walk out of my office and lock my office door behind me.
I walked down the long hallway and down the spiral stairs and over to the bar. "Hey Ms. Santiago." One of her male bar workers ask as he cleaned the cups.
"Hey, can you fix me up one of them cranberry margaritas." I ask with a smile as I took a seat on the stool seated in front of the bar.
He nodded and got to mixing. When he was done he handed it to me and went back to mixing.
"What's up niece?" I hear behind me. I turn around on the stool and smile. "Hey unc, we need to talk care to join me for a drink?" I ask.
He nodded and Marcell began fixing him the drink of his desire. "So what's up?" He asks as he looked around the club as they overlooked it.
"Somebody is stealing from me and not only that Tamia said they plotting on me then stormed out." I say venting.
He nodded his head. "Seems like some work of Martini." He says as he chuckled.
My face went blank at the mention of the name. "Why would Martini have any connections with the girls at my club?" I ask with my face scrunched up.
"He got connections all over it could all be a scam, you never know what he got up his sleeves he's so unpredictable." He says as he drank from his cup.
"The girl seemed scared so I don't know she also showed me pictures of this girl stealing our shit." I say as I shook my head.
"I have no idea what's going round here but we bound to find out." He says.
I just nodded my head.
Ain't no escaping this lifestyle...
