"I never called her. I never even knew her number. She never knew mine. I’d see her around, we’d hook up, then I wouldn’t see her for a while," Black said.

"So when did you find out she was married?"

"I saw her one night on the street, and she walked up on me. We talked for awhile then she says, ‘Oh shit, here comes my husband.’ So I’m like, ‘You’re married; to who?’ And she points at Hector. I never saw her again after that day."

After Hector found out about the affair, he sent Nina to Miami so his family could watch and insure her fidelity.

When Hector moved to Miami, he very violently carved out a spot for himself. Cruz had worked for his uncle for years, but craved the power his uncle possessed. Hector knew that sooner or later Cruz’s need for power would bring them to a point when Cruz would try to assassinate him. Together, they made the decision to send Cruz to New York to expand his business. When Cruz came to New York, he took over the drug trade in the South Bronx. Now he’s set his sights on making a move uptown.

"You not leaving already, are you, Kenny?" Cruz said as Kenny passed.

"Yeah, I was about to get out of here," Kenny said and Luke and two of his men stepped closer.

"Stay and have a drink with me. I got something I want to talk to you about."

Kenny signaled for his men to back off. Luke put his gun away and took a step back. Kenny stepped to the bar. "What could you and I have to talk about?" he said and sat down at the bar.

Cruz signaled for the bartender. "Bacardi and coke, and bring my man whatever he wants."

"Chivas on the rocks."

The bartender left and Cruz leaned closer. "I been thinkin’ about takin’ my program uptown. I got the product and the people to make it happen. The only thing stopping me is Stark."
