Chapter 250: Moving On
The day after Alex and Isabella slept together, the man awoke to find that the young woman was still clinging to him, almost as if she were afraid that the moment she let go, she would lose him forever. And thus, Alex had some difficulty climbing out of bed.
But eventually Alex broke away from Isabella’s embrace, where she awoke and found herself pouting. Alex had so rudely broken away from her grasp, and she had to make him feel bad for it. Thus she sat silently in bed pouting at Alex until the man finally sighed and lectured her on her behavior.
“If you think you are going to shame me into climbing back into bed with you, you are sorely mistaken… Get dressed. Breakfast is probably already waiting for us…”
Isabella did not bother resisting orders from her new lover, and quickly did as he said before following him out of “their” room, and towards the dining hall where they found La Madre and Maria waiting for them.
Maria appeared to be in a foul mood, far more than she had been when she found out Alex was a murderer. But she wasn’t angry with Alex this time around. Rather, her scornful gaze landed itself upon the young vixen clinging to the man.
By now Alex had enough experience with women to know that Maria was jealous, and thus, he shamefully sat down, and ordered Isabella to sit in his lap, which she was happy to do so. Once the two of them were seated, Alex goaded Maria on with his words.
“I slept better last night than I have in weeks. How about you, Maria? How did you sleep?”
Maria’s pretty mouth dropped as she witnessed the shamelessness of the man sitting in front of her. This was an expression that caused Isabella to laugh as she clung tightly to Alex’s broad chest and reveled in her victory.
Maria gritted her teeth, realizing that these two shameless individuals were perfect for one another, and watched in sheer envy as Isabella fed Alex with a spoonful of his Huevos Rancheros. Surprisingly enough, this taunting by both Isabella and Alex actually had a positive effect on Maria’s affection towards the man.
[Maria is incredibly jealous of Isabella!]
[+10 Affection from Maria!]
[Maria’s affection 50/100]
Alex smirked as he saw this. Maria was like an open book at this point. Once she had gotten over Alex’s involvement with the Cartel’s she had rapidly begun to gain affection for the man once again. Over the past week, Alex had been making continuous gains with the young beauty, and he was incredibly happy with the results.
Of course, then there were Amahle, and La Madre, both of whom were challenges in different regards. And aside from those two beauties, there was one mysterious heroine left for Alex to conquer, or so he thought. The reality was that the system had a surprise in store for him, and had two hidden heroines waiting to be conquered. Both of which were waking up to their own morning routines right now.

Nina climbed out of bed and showered before getting dressed for the day. She was currently studying computer science at Mexico’s most prestigious university. Unlike the majority of Alex’s women, she did not have a magnificent figure, nor an appearance that was striking enough to attract the male gaze.
In many ways she was like Min-Ji, who was not only flat chested, and slender, but a nerdy girl who most guys would never give the time of day. But unlike Min-Ji, Nina did not spend her days in the library. In fact, she barely managed to attend her classes.
Most of the time Nina spent her days in her dorm room, afraid to leave it due to all the violence and chaos that was taking place in Mexico at the moment. Despite her fear of the Mexican Drug War, and the random acts of violence that occurred as a result of it. Nina’s only “friend” was Isabella, and because of that, she had actively gotten involved in the war she feared most.
Ever since Alex made off with Isabella, Nina had been fearful that she may have exposed herself, and thus hid away in her dorm room, not even daring to open the shades in fear of the idea that someone might be waiting outside for the slightest signal that she was indeed present in her dorm room.
Although her skills with computers were sublime, her paranoia kept reminding her that there was a possibility that she had left behind some evidence of her identity while hacking into the Cartel’s security systems.
Thus, the girl snacked on a microwavable breakfast burrito, while getting on her computer and checking on the ongoing situation between the Zetas and Jalisco. Which revealed that nothing interesting had transpired since Isabella’s “kidnapping.”
With a heavy sigh, Nina logged off of her account, which went by the username of “Redacted”, and went back to bed, wishing the day would go by as quickly as possible.

While Nina lived in fear for her life holed up in her dorm room. Carmen was busy preparing with the DEA Task Force sent into Mexico with the purpose of taking down Jalisco. After all, the CJNG had suffered repeated and heavy losses by the Zetas since Alex first got involved in the drug war, and the United States government saw this as an opportunity to press the cartel while it was on its back foot.
Carmen was sipping from a cup of coffee. There was a stoic expression on her otherwise beautiful face as she struggled to get through the operations briefing. One that intended to capture the men in charge of Jalisco’s business.
Naturally, the DEA was aware that the Zetas planned to deal a death blow to Jalisco, and thus they were pressed for time. Because if the Zetas were allowed to wipe out Jalisco, then it would mean open warfare between the last major cartel in the State of Mexico, and the Mexican government itself.
The last thing the United States wanted was for their southern neighbor to become a genuine Narco state. And thus, Carmen was forced to listen to her superiors as they talked about bringing down Jalisco, while aiding the Mexican Military in its attempts to seize control over what remained of Jalisco’s Drug Empire.
