Why this must be read:
As I said in the fandom overview, the entire movie could be seen as Roque and Clay's epic break-up. They both think they're right, they both know what needs to be done, and when they end up not being on the same path, it ends badly.

This could be considered an AU, because it takes place after the movie, with Roque very much alive. It's two incredibly attractive, incredibly rough men with bitterness and regrets and a single handgun between them. And it's furiously hot.

Excerpt:
"What, Clay, getting soft? You think you need a gun to take out an old cripple like me?"

Clay's grin broadened and he shook his head. "Roque, how long have we known each other? You may be a lot of things, but with one eye and no legs at all you'd still be twice as dangerous as anyone I know. If you hadn't wanted that money more than you wanted to kill me, I don't know if I'd be sitting here right now."

"I didn't want to kill you," Roque said, then shrugged at Clay's expression. "Okay, maybe a little. More than that, though, I wanted out, and you just didn't want to let me leave."
