He's the rival, but wanting him is inevitable.
Alfonzo
I've always lived by my own set of codes, and code number one in my book stated: form no attachments.
But forming one with him was inevitable.
When Rico dropped Maksim Arsenyev's file onto my desk with orders to eliminate him, I wasn't surprised.
The Russians had been playing at our backdoor for too long, and while they were good friends with a local biker club Rico was in cahoots with, that didn't mean Rico would idly stand by and let the Russians continue to spread into our territory.
But when I lay eyes on Maksim in person for the first time...
I can't bring myself to pull the trigger.
I let him run.
A game of cat and mouse begins, but like Tom, I don't actually want to harm Jerry.

Maksim
The Bratva took me in when I was nothing more than a starving boy on the streets of Russia. Anatoly, the Pakhan, saved me, and Rurik, his best friend and consigliere, mostly raised me.
I owed them everything.
So, when I'm given orders to scope out one of Rico Martinez's properties, I do so without question.
But I'm not sneaky enough, and I'm spotted. My cover is blown.
When Rico's second in command, Alfonzo Aguado, appears in front of me like a ghost, I know it's over for me.
But he lets me go.
A game of cat and mouse begins, but somewhere in our little game, a third player slips in, and we're unaware until they almost take me out.
Now, I'm standing on the Martinez compound grounds, bleeding out, and begging Alfonzo to come out and help me.
And when he does... may God have mercy on whoever touched me.
Alfonzo is out for blood.
