The new lord.

Many things, happen too fast in such short amount of time that Seth didn't have the time to process all that had happen in the last few days. But when Seth finally did, a blast of feelings came to drown him out, guilt, anger, grief, despair, but acceptance was not in there yet.
Seth often thought that how he couldn't accept the deaths of Kate and Uncle Eddie, so easy when it was because of him, that they were gone. It was thanks to him. He could have done so many things so different, like when both Seth and Kate came out alive and breathing,from the "twittie twister". Seth should have headed out straight to the border, to meet Uncle Ed and start all over again somewhere else, with new identities, including one for Uncle Eddie.
Uncle Eddie had been the best father figure Seth had, even when his own father had been alive. Seth knew that Uncle Eddie would had followed him with no questions asked. And then there was Kate an innocent victim in Seth's greed for power and wealth. Thanks to him, Kate's world had been turn upside down, but instead of doing taking Kate to safety from the beginning, Seth had found excuses not cross the border. Seth knew that there were ways to cross the border without using new identities, or without bribing someone at the border. But he chose to stay because everything in Texas* would remind him of his brother. And Seth also chose to keep Kate as company, not for anything sexual, he kept her just not to feel even lonelier than he already did, all for pure selfish reasons. And then Kate in so many ways began to represent the maternal figure Seth never had while growing up. She also became his conscious, constantly reminding him that they need it to help their respective siblings. But he had to be stubborn as hell and not listen to her and most importantly Seth may had been physically there with her but not emotionally. Something Seth figured now may have changed a lot of things.
Seth had only began to do drugs because one night while he was on a "job." The only thing the joint had of value, had been drugs, Seth had been so angry at himself that night for not preparing better, that Seth had decided to use the drugs, because he couldn't believe that the once feared and legendary Seth Gecko couldn't even rob a small joint like the one he had. And when he got a taste of those drugs he knew he was hook. Seth felt even guiltier when he had dropped kate in the middle of nowhere, all because Seth couldn't handle confrontation of the job gone wrong ,her brother and anything else. For the next few days all he could do was to get high, have nightmares about Kate, until Sonja came to the rescue and forced him to get clean, it was brutal, but he made it.
Somehow and somewhere, Seth ended doing everything he swore wouldn't do, He was working with his brother Richie, a job that would forced him to be surrounded by culebras and the "Queen bee" Santanico.
When the job was done and Santanico managed to kill Malvado, Seth was struck to learn that Carlos had kill Kate, also because the way Richie delivered the news, he said with such an easy tone, that to any outsider would have sounded the death of a stranger. But Seth knew without asking his brother that Kate had meant something more than just a casual fling to Richie. Seth didn't know how much time both Kate and Richie had spent together for Kate to share information about his drug use in Mexico but apparently it was just about enough for Richie to know and for Seth to get even no piss at his brother.
Now that it had been days, since Kate's death, Seth was constantly tempted to use drugs, but he wouldn't touch them, in respect and in memory of Kate. Since there was not a place to grieve her, Kate's body had disappeared, Richie had suspected that one of Carlos's goons had taken the body in order to drain her body of blood and to mess with them. But didn't meant that could stop him from hating himself. Something that Seth would never admit out loud was that he loved Kate more than anything in this world and that she died without learning his true feelings.
A/N: I know its messy the story but then again it is because it written really fast, and for a story that is my second language, I did great, I think. Feel free to leave comments and ideas.
