Alexei's Mouse

&ldquo;He runs some small-time drug dealers on Staten Island. He doesn&rsquo;t know Donal&rsquo;s name, and none of the boys are talking, but someone needs to tell Don Ferone.&rdquo;


&ldquo;We&rsquo;ll take care of that. Thank you, Julio. When you want to go to school, let me know. I&rsquo;ll pay for school and your living expenses. After you finish, I&rsquo;ll buy you the ritziest salon in Manhattan. Donal is precious to me and that&rsquo;s twice you have gone out of your way to help him,&rdquo; Alexei promised.


Julio&rsquo;s eyes popped. &ldquo;Boy, do you have juice, Donal. Don&rsquo;t worry, Mr. Davidoff. Donal isn&rsquo;t the type to take advantage. He only took from me when I forced him to do it. I couldn&rsquo;t stand to see him after that bastard got through with him.&rdquo;


&ldquo;I know Donal isn&rsquo;t like that. He&rsquo;s very honest and thinks too little of himself.&rdquo;


&ldquo;You know him well already.&rdquo; Julio regarded Alexei with sharp, appraising eyes.
