"Get your bitch as up now!!" my foster father
yelled while throwing a punch down on me as
I laid in bed.
"What a wonderful thing to wake you to,"I
thought as the pain struck my side. I quickly
got up and ran to the bathroom before Jerry
could throw another punch.
"You better be down in 5 minutes or else," He
yelled while banging on the door. I let out a
sigh as I watched the vibration on the door
come to a stop.
"Or else what? It's not like if I get ready in time
you're not going to beat me up either way" I let
out a tired yawn.
Last night was a hell of a mission. No, literally!
I was assigned to take out a gang transporting
drugs on the dock. Made 125k from that alone.
Working for this secret organization the
government has is sometimes a pain in the ***
though. Every mission I do, I literally get shot
at. Not so fun dodging bullets every second.
Growing up my biological parents saw I had
these miraculous gifts like telekinesis and
controlling the weather. I have some other
powers but I don't care to explain.
Sometimes, my powers were uncontrollable
which caused my family and me to be under
surveillance. Eventually, the government
found us, specifically one of the leaders of the
organization who went by Henry. He offered
my family a deal; I work for them and in
return, they pay us. Seeing as how we were
poor we agreed.
As time went on my parents adopted more
kids into the family. More like these kids
found us to be honest. I have 22 brothers. All
who now live in my mansion together. I know
what you're wondering. Why stay with these
foster asshole of parents if I have money?
Simple.
My parents spoke with Henry informing them
that if anything were to happen with them,
I would be placed away from my brothers
because I can be a threat to everyone else
considering how 'special' I am. So, I was
placed in a foster home where no one has
tracked me yet. I tried to argue my point to
Henry saying I would be fine if I lived with
my brothers but he wouldn't go against my
parents' wishes.
After showering and getting dressed, I walked
downstairs at full speed. Before Jerry or Cindy
could physically abuse me, I ran out the door.
"GET BACK HERE YOU LITTLE SLUT!" Cindy
yelled by the door. I ignored her and walked
to school with my phone in my hand
Ding.
It was a message from Ethan. Ethan was
my second oldest brother. Ethan and the
rest of my brothers were also trained in the
organization. They chose to work with me
of their own free will which was kind of
nice. Some missions we do aren't just about
drugs. Sometimes it's trafficking of some sort,
protecting someone or something, recovering
stolen goods, busting arms dealers, and even
defusing bombs. Everyone in the family is a
specialist in a certain type of combat. Ethan's
skilled in water combat.
Ethan and I talked on the phone while I
walked to school. I let out a heavy sigh once I
reached the main gates.
"I'll talk to you later and I might visit you guys
after school," I spoke into the phone.
"Alright. Have a great day peaches," he replied
in an eager tone. I mentally chuckled and said
my goodbyes.
"It's Monday. You can get through this,"
I mumbled to myself boosting whatever
motivation is left.
I walked in and slowly headed to my
first-period class knowing I'm already late.
You would never see me rushing to class even
if I'm late. As long as I pass I could give fewer
fucks. I finally reached my class and walked
in during the middle of a lecture. As usual, I
received stares from students and the teacher
just gave me a nod gesturing to have a seat.
To be honest I could just skip class and
meet up with my brothers. Either way, the
government covers me. So if I were to fail a
class, they could change that for me. I would
ditch every day but it isn't fair to the students
who are actually stuck in this school and have
to pass. Know when to use your resources as
an advantage; abusing what you have will get
you nowhere in the long run.
As my day went on normal I decided to skip
chemistry and just go to the mansion early
since today was just a video instruction day. I
was still tired and could use some sleep. I text
Ethan to pick me up but he said he couldn't so
he's sending James. James was the leader of
our gang when I wasn't around. He was also
the oldest out of all of us.
I walked out of the school and waited for
James. After about 15 minutes later he finally
arrived. He pulled up in a black Lamborghini
and stepped out. He instantly smirks as
he sees me and I roll my eyes. James had
medium-dark brown hair and brown eyes. He
had a lip ring on his bottom lip and a flower
tattoo on his right arm.
"About time you ditch school," his voice
boomed through the quiet lot.
I rolled my eyes again. "Yeah yeah. Whatever,"
I said brushing myself off since I was sitting
on the ground. All of a sudden I was being
pulled into his chest.
"I missed you, little sister," James whispered
while hugging me. I wanted to cry at this
moment but didn't. I haven't seen the guys in 2
months because I have been busy with either
school, missions, or my foster parents.
"I miss you too," I muffled in his chest while
hugging him back.
We finally broke from the hug and got in his
car. As we drove off, I was consumed with
sleep as I looked out the window.
When I woke up I felt fully rested like I
haven't slept properly in months. I looked
around and saw that I was in my room in the
mansion. I'm guessing James carried me to my
bed.
I slowly slid out of my king-size bed before
walking over to my closet and grabbing
some black skinny jeans and a grey armless
T-shirt, then made my way to the bathroom. I
brushed my teeth and showered and washing
my hair in the process. When I was finished
with everything I slipped into my clothes and
some black converse before applying some
chapstick.
Once I was done I grabbed my phone from
the dresser and checked the time. It was
6:26 pm. I decided that since it was dinner
time, the guys and I should just head out to
a restaurant. I walked out of my room and
down the huge hallway. I started making my
way downstairs and heard music blasting
along with some of the guys laughing.
Wow, how I miss them so much.
"BOSS!" Justin yelled, pulling me out of my
thoughts.
I rolled my eyes, hating to be called boss.
"Don't call me that" I growled at Justin which
caused him to chuckle.
As I reached the bottom of the stairs, the guys
started greeting me. "So were you just going
to not give me a hug or something?!" Ethan
yelled approaching me. I chuckled and shook
my head as he pulled me into a bone-crushing
hug
"Do..you.hear that?" I manage to choke out.
"Hear what?"
"My bones.crushing"
He released me while laughing with an
apologizing look. "Alright. Since you guys are
all here, we're going out to eat so grab your
motorcycle and be outside in 5," I announced
and received a reply of cheers.
We were now finished eating and were getting
ready to leave. Man, I miss hanging out with
my brothers.
We were all laughing at Lenin who was a
klutz. He somehow tripped and fell in the
slowest motion as possible. Trust me, it's
more like a "see to believe" type of joke. We
all walked out and started heading to our
motorcycle.
My phone went off and I looked at the caller
id. Letting out a sigh as I saw it was Cindy. I
watched as the phone rang. '"Out of billions of
people on this earth why do I have to be the one
stuck with them,"I thought to myself.
A hand grabbed my shoulder and I looked
over to see Ethan giving me a small smile.
He knows more than the guys sometimes. II
returned the smile and shoved my phone in
my pocket. I realised we had reached by our
bikes. I miss my baby. Dark blue with my
signature engraved on it.
"Isn't that the girl from our school?" I heard a
familiar voice from behind.
"Shit," I mumbled. No one from school can
know the real me. They're only supposed
to see me as the shy nerdy type and out of
everyone it had to be this bitch. This bitch is
like every bully in every other story except
she NEVER will change.
Oh my god! It is her. It's that ugly slut!!" her
voice came closer behind me. I looked up to
see some of the guys looking at me and some
at her. I knew she was approaching me by the
clicks of her heels.
I turned to see her in heels and a short dress.
Her hair was everywhere and her face was
caked in makeup.
Wait today is Monday. Why is this cow dressed
for partying? Well, she's going to make it far
in life. Just kidding. HA!! Good one Sky. I was
mentally pulled out of my thoughts by a
hyena laugh. Ashley and her little followers
were laughing.
"Cat got your tongue?" she laughed harder.
"Nope. I was just trying to figure out what I
was looking at. You tried so hard to outline
your nose as if you even have one and not to
mention that parking lot of a forehead. You
know comparing you to Voldemort would be
an insult to him of course." I spoke up.
Her laugh went silent along with her friends
who gasped at my insult. You see she never
thought I would fight back because in school I
let her do her thing and I take the beatings but
here's the problem, we're not in school.
She looked at me shocked then recovered it
with a smirk. "So what is an ugly piece of shit
like you doing with these hot guys? Or are you
trying to make some money?" she finished
with a laugh. Man, she can laugh.
"None of your business" I spat. I then felt a
sting across my face and a bunch of clicks
behind me. I looked at Ashley's face which
turned pale. I turned around to see all my
brothers pointing a pistol at her.
My eyes widened, "What the hell?!"
They all looked at me in confusion. "But she
hit you Boss" Stan questioned.
I rolled my eyes at the boss part. "I don't givea
damn. If I wanted her dead I would have done
it already now put your guns away and stop
calling me Boss," I growled and they obeyed.
I turned back to Ashley who looked like she
just shitted herself and her friends...well they
looked like they're frozen in place.
I smirked at her. "Next time you bully
someone, I will kill you with my bare hands," I
lied. Hey, at least she would stop if this scared
her, right?
She slowly nodded and I got on my bike and
started it along with the guys. I turned on my
bike and looked at her. "You better not tell
anyone about this. This goes for your friends
too. If I find out one of you talking...let's just
say it wouldn't be pretty," I spoke firmly and I
was serious about that part.
I can't have people knowing who I am and
put my life or my brothers' lives in danger. II
turned around and we all drove back to the
house.
I managed to sneak back into the house
without being caught by Jerry and Cindy.
They were both passed out on the couch with
beer bottles surrounding them. Tomorrow
will either be a great day if they sleep in from
the hangover or the worst if they wake up.
I silently made my way up to my room and
crashed on my bed.
Tonight has been fun with the guys other than
the slap to the face from Ashley. The girl most
likely shitted herself when she saw all those
guns aiming at her. I glimpsed over to the
clock on the nightstand. It was 6:00 am on the
dot. Great! No sleep for me.
I decided to brush my teeth, then take a
shower before starting to get dressed for
school. I wore some blue wash-away skinny
jeans with a black tank top and an open
plaid shirt. I grabbed my phone and bag then
headed downstairs quietly. I was about to
walk out the door until I was yanked back
inside. I turned around to see it was Cindy.
"WHY DIDN'T YOU ANSWER YOUR PHONE
YESTERDAY AND WHERE WERE YOU?!" she
yelled. I could smell the beer on her nasty
morning breath.
Jerry walked up behind her and if looks
could kill, well his would. "ANSWER YOUR
MOTHER!" he yelled then slapped me across
the face. I felt a sharp sting and burn.
He looked at his ring then glared at me. "You
got blood on my ring you bitch," he growled.
He was about to hit me again but Cindy
stopped him.
"No. She has to go to school. We'll deal with
her tonight," she said smirking along with
Jerry. "If you come home late again you will
regret it," she threatened me.
I nodded and walked out the door. I pulled
out a napkin from my bag and my phone with
the camera on. I looked at the scrape that was
bleeding on my right cheek. It was 2 inches
long. I let out a sigh and whipped the blood
off.
I guess one good thing about having powers
is one of them being self-healing. The scrap
would heal itself in about 10 minutes since it
was small. Small injuries take longer to heal
rather than big injuries which take less time
to heal. Don't ask me how that works because
I don't even know.
Math. Math oh how I love you. To be honest
I really do love math. I understand it pretty
easy and well I'm a fast learner. My second
favorite subject is English because in my
essays I would also get either a 95 or higher.
We were now doing independent work and
Ms. Genna was walking around helping some
of the students. She stopped next to me and I
showed her my paper.
"All correct so far," she said with her smile
as her gray hair fell down to the side of her
face. Ms. Genna was the nicest teacher in this
school. Everyone loved her. "What happened
to your cheek Dear?" she frowned with her
eyes glued to my scrape.
Shit. I gave her a small smile. "My cat doesn't
like to share the bed," I quickly lied.
She looked at me for a few seconds and gave
a small smile. "Oh okay. If you want to talk
about anything, I'm here for you."
"Thank you," I smiled before she walked off to
another student.
We were now in the middle of lectures on
how to do college math. There was a knock on
the door and most of the kids were thankful
since they hated math. Ms. Genna nodded her
head as the person spoke to her at the door. I
couldn't see the person because she or he was
being blocked by a wall. I shrugged mentally
and started working on my assignment sheet.
I heard the door shut and a bunch of footsteps
around the room. I ignored it assuming it
was visitors who would take notes on her
teachings. "Attention everyone. I know you're
wondering what's happening right now but
this nice man will explain everything," Ms.
Genna spoke as I continued working.
The person cleared their throat and spoke,
"Hello. I am here to assist a special student in
your class on a mission to take down a bad
guy. Please I beg you not to use your phones
or make loud noises for your own safety. Not
to worry, this isn't real. We're rehearsing for a
play," he whispered in the last part.
Would students even believe that?
I sighed as I recognized the voice. It was
Henry. He was in his mid 40's with gray hair
and tattoos. No. No. Not the gray hair that
elders get. This dude start-up put his hair like
that. To be honest it kind of suits him. He also
claims and I quote "The chicks dig it". This guy
is where I get my assigned missions. We had
our ups and downs but we were always cool
until now. He is the closest thing to a parent
me and my brothers have.
"You gotta be fucking kidding me," I mumbled.
I didn't realize I said it really loud because
everyone turned to me. I looked up and glared
at Henry.
A smirk rose to his face. I knew he needed
my help. That is the only reason he showed
up. I don't mind saving the school and all
but did he really have to do it this way? Like
honestly, you could've just called me or text
me. Anything but this.
This is all fun for you huh?" I scoffed causing
some people to gasp at my attitude.
His smirk remained on his face. "Yup. Now
gear up," he spoke as one of his men handed
him a duffle bag.
"In front of the class?" I questioned.
"Yes now hurry up. Your boys are coming
soon," he said putting the duffle bag on the
teacher's table.
Man, this got to be big. Henry never shows
up to my missions like this unless it was
necessary. I walked up to the front of the
room which only gained everyone's attention
which I hated. I opened the bag and took off
my plaid shirt leaving my tank top on. I heard
some whispers and looked at Henry. "Your
tattoo is showing," he explained. My tattoo
was a dream catcher on my back. Each string
had all my brothers' and my parents' name
written on it.
I pulled out a combat shirt that was black and
slipped it on. I pulled out a combat knife and
shoved it in the back of my pants under my
shirt. I then loaded up on the Ak's. I turned
around to see shocked faces.
There's no way they're going to believe this is
for a play.
"We're here," I heard Ethan's voice coming
from the door. James pushed him aside and
walked up to Henry clearly pissed off.
"The hell is your problem dude. You could
have done this in private and not come to her
school like this," He growled referring to me
and I couldn't agree more with him.
"Yeah well, we found out this morning and
rushed over here," he explained.
James rolled his eyes and walked over to me.
"You okay?" he whispered cupping my face
then realized the scrape on my face when I
flinched. "Them?" he whispered referring to
Jerry and Cindy.
I nodded and Henry cleared his throat. "Here
are the files," he handed the folder to me. I
took it and opened it.
"Alright. Our guy's name is Franky. He's in his
early 30's and has a teardrop by his right eye,"
I spoke and held up the photo so the guys
could see.
I gave the photo to Justin so they could pass
it around. "He wants revenge on someone in
the school. This kid needs to be protected. His
name is Darren Lincoln. He's on this floor. His
mother, who is a judge, died a while now from
natural death and as revenge, he is going for
the kid. Look for him quietly" I spoke again
and passed the picture of Darren around.
I turned to Ms. Genna and she looked a little
shook but smiled at me. "Ms. Genna is it okay
ifI erase the board?"
"Sure thing darling," she spoke with her sweet
voice. I thanked her and erased the board. I
drew a quick map of our floor.
"Alright listen up carefully. There are three
ways to get to this floor. There's the back
stairway and the front stairway. We also have
a gym which leads to the outside. The back
stairway will be guarded by Victor, Blake,
Austin, Ethan, and Taylor. The front stairway
is bigger so Mason, Alex, Carter, Weston,
Kevin, Gabe, Zack, and James will secure that
area. For the gym, Hunter, Felix, Richie, and
Chris, you guys will be there. Cody, Randy,
Justin, Lenin, and Stan, you guys will be with
me looking for the kid. Alright, let's go. Be safe
and if you see Frankly call it in." I ordered
them and they all nodded before leaving the
classroom excepting James and Ethan.
"Be safe and love you," Ethan spoke as he
kissed my forehead.
"Love you too," I replied and kissed his
forehead before he left.
James came up and hugged me. "We're talking
about your cut later. Love you, little sis," he
said kissing me on the cheek.
"Love you too," I smiled before he left.
I told Henry to have some of his men guard
this room and roam the hallway. He agreed
and divided them up. I walked out and started
searching the classroom for the kid.
As I walked into each class I received stares
and gasps as they recognize who I was. I
walked into the 4th classroom and finally
found the kid.
"He's in here," I said to my squad.
They jogged to the classroom and guarded it
as I walked in. I made my way up to Darren.
He looked puzzled and I don't blame him.
I offered a little smile and started to explain,
"A guy your mother put in jail has escaped
and now as revenge, you're his target. We
need to get you out of this classroom. Would
you please for us?"
He gave me a half-smile. "No thank you. I
could take care of myself. I don't need some
nerdy girl to protect me."
I stood there with anger. "Cockiness gets you
killed you know," I stated.
"You don't know anything about me," he spat.
I let outa frustrated groan. "This isn't the time
to start this shit. Now please just follow us."
He sat back in his chair. "No," was all he said.
Maybe I should do Franky a favor and kill him
myself. Ha! I'm just kidding...maybe.
I turned to the door to see the guys annoyed
at him. I turned back to Darren. "You think
you're so tough. You do know Franky is not
dumb enough to come alone so get your ***
up," I warned.
He sat up in his chair and intertwined his
hand on the desk then looked up to me.
"You're a girl. Just because you hold a gun
and look all armed doesn't mean you knowv
anything Especially when you're a nerd and
quiet."
I had enough and yanked him up by the
hoodie and dragged him out the door. I let go
of his hoodie and walked beside him back to
Ms. Genna's class.
"Feisty much," he mumbled to himself but I
was able to hear him.
"BOSS HE'S HERE AND HAS MEN
SURROUNDING THE SCHOOL. HE HAS
ABOUT 15 GUYS," I heard Mason through my
walkie-talkie. I picked it up.
"Hold them off," I ordered and ran into the
classroom with the guys.
Henry looked at me then at the kid. "Alright.
My men, keep him safe at all cost," he ordered
them and they replied with a "Yes sir."
I turned to the board where the map was
drawn. "Which is the easiest way into the
School?" I mumbled.
"The gym sweetheart. Anyone can basically
enter and leave without that much of a
notice," Ms. Genna's sweet voice informed me.
I thanked her and turned to my guys.
"Cody and Randy go to the main stair. He
would put more guys there. Justin and Lenin,
you go to the back stairs. I'm going to the gym
and Stan, you're on backup with a douche bag
over here," I said pointing back to Henry who
was glaring at me.
We all headed to the location. I soon met up
with Hunter, Felix, Richie, and Chris who were
shooting at the guys on the basketball court. I
joined in and helped them out. Four enemies
were now down. As we took them out one by
one, more came in. I heard a loud explosion
coming from the outside entrance. Some
of the enemies turned around and started
shooting behind them.
"Can you see who they're shooting at?" I yelled
before shooting someone in the back of their
head.
"No," Chris yelled then returned to shooting.
The rest of the guys eventually joined us.
"Why are you guys here?" I asked hiding
behind a wall as I was reloading.
"Henry's men got the stairway covered," James
yelled then pushed up in the enemy's area.
Another explosion went off and I noticed
some of the guys just disappearing into thin
air. I got distracted and that one of them shot
me in the arm. I cursed under my breath and
shot the guy in the head. I ducked behind the
wall and looked at my arm. The bullet was
wedged in. I let out a sigh and Ethan ran over
to me. He held my arm and reached into the
wound and managed to get the bullet out.
I watched as my wound healed back to my
regular skin.
We eventually pushed up some more and
stopped shooting because the men were
disappearing in a flash. I watched as men
would either drop to the floor from their
necks being twisted or from a headshot. The
last guy was then gone and me and my men
aimed around the area unsure what was
happening.
We watched as a figure appeared in the
distance. As the figure came closer into the
light, we stopped aim as we saw who it was.
Fucking Godric was back.
We all watched as he made his way over to
us. I took in his features. His dark brown hair
was curled to the side and fell in front of his
face. His eyes were a light brown and his style
didn't even seem to change one bit. He had
on a white t-shirt which showed his muscles
along with his tattoos. He had a piercing on
his ear which was a black stud earring.
Godric was my childhood friend and the only
friend who knew everything about me and
my brothers. We planned to start our own
business one day but then he just vanished
without a word or trace.
"Surprise!" He smiled as he stood in front of
me. I stood there not knowing how to respond.
He opened his mouth to say something and
was cut off by Henry's voice that came out of
the walkie-talkie "Sky! We have a problem.
Franky is now in the classroom with Darren
and he's armed. It's only him. All his guys are
down."
I started running back to the classroom
with the guys behind me. We all barged in
the classroom and Franky had his left arm
wrapped around Darren's neck while the right
hand was aiming a pistol at his head.
"Put your weapons down or the kid dies,"
Franky spat across the room.
I looked around to see all the students and Ms.
Gena in the back of the classroom. I turned
back to Franky then let outa sigh. I slowly
lowered my gun to the ground and the guys
followed along.
Franky smirks at his success then waved the
gun towards us. "Kick it to me."
Since his gun was off Darren, I took the
opportunity to take my pistol out and pull the
trigger along when he pulled his trigger. The
gunshot was covered by screams that came
from some of the students. Franky slowly
dropped to the floor and the classroom was
filled with silence from the shocked students. I
called Henry in and told him what happened.
I was thanked by Darren for saving his life
and by Ms. Gena. She gave me a huge hug and
also shed some tears.
Henry's men came in moments later and
took Darren to who knows where and also
took Franky's lifeless body away. I looked for
where his bulleted landed. Turns out, he shot
the wall next to me missing me by 1 foot.
My brothers did a little celebration cheer at
our success in the mission as we were packing
up our stuff. James walked up to me and
gave me a smirk. "Still got it in you," he said
wiggling his eyebrows.
"Ha. Of course, I do," I grinned.
"Hey," I hear a soft voice behind me. I turned
around to see Godric with a smile. I forgot he
was back. To be honest, you would too if the
only person you trusted and were best friends
with was gone for almost 12 years now.
"Why did you come back?" I asked bluntly,
causing his smile to fade. The room got quiet
all of a sudden as my tone changed. Godric
stands there in complete shock.
What?! Did he honestly expect me to just be
happy and jump into his arms? He left me for
12 years. After my parents died, he left and I
had no one excepting my brothers. Did it never
occur to him that he could've called or sent a
text?
I delivered him a punch to the face causing
him to stumble back a little. "I probably
deserve that," he groaned in pain as he
rubbed his nose.
I started to disarm myself and put everything
back in the bag. "Come on! You can't be mad at
me," he spoke trying to reason with me.
I put on my plaid shirt and turned to him.
"You left me for 12 fucking years. You never
called or tried to contact me. Did you expect
me to leap into your arms?" I spat in disbelief.
His eyes darkened and I could see that he
tensed up. "I have been through hell these
past 12 years and I'm even lucky to be alive
right no," he shouted.
"Oh, yeah? What about keeping in contact. Not
even one damn phone call."
He let out an annoyed groan. "I was trying to
protect you."
"You sure did a shitty job at it," I mumbled
thinking about Cindy and Jerry. I brushed it
off and headed for the door.
"Skylar wait," Godric yelled, but I ignored
him and left through the gym which led me
outside. I saw Henry and his guys talking
before they split up into different BMWs.
"Can I have a ride?" I asked Henry and he
nodded.
During the ride, Henry allowed me to rant
about what just happened. He knew Godric
from when I was small. It is one out of many
things I like about Henry. He would sit there
and allow me to rant for God knows how long.
"I actually agree with you," he implied as we
stopped at a traffic light.
"I know! How can you expect me to be all nice
and shit when you just left for 12 years and
never even made contact with me. For all I
care, he could spend another 12 years gone," II
admitted and that was the truth.
I was mad. Matter of fact, I was beyond mad. I
was so mad not even my favorite type of food
could cheer me up. That's when you know
shit's real.
"We're here," Henry said, pulling up to the
mansion gates that were black. I thanked him
and got out. As he drove off I walked through
the now opened gate and made my way to the
entrance.
My mansion looked like a place where
the Greek Gods and Goddess would live.
Everything was so Vivid and beautiiul. This
was home.
I walked around the fountain that was in
the drive-thru and made my way up to the
light brown door. I scanned my hand on the
pad and watched as the screen turned green
and it recognised my fingerprint. Click. The
door was now open. I removed my hand
and walked in making sure to shut the door
behind me.
Letting out a frustrated sigh, I walked over
to the bar that was a few feet in front of me.
I took a bottle of Hennessy and poured some
in a glass with ice. I placed my phone on the
counter and took a seat on the stool.
What sucks about alcohol is that it doesn't
do anything to me right away. I could drink
out a whole bottle and still be able to walk
and drive. I'm still aware of everything that
is happening. In order for me to get drunk,
I would have to consume about 6 bottles
of Hennessy. My powers make my alcohol
tolerance very high. However, I could speed
up the process by adding vodka but I get the
worst hangover you can ever have. I silently
drank out the alcohol in my cup and served
myself a second round.
I heard the door click and knew the guys had
reached home. As they entered, I could hear
different types of conversations going on but
couldn't make out what they were saying. It
just sounds like a bunch of bees.
"Sky," someone called and I turned around to
see the prick inside my house.
I got up and drank out the remains in my cup
in one shot. It burned but my anger burned
more. I shoved my glass in Ethan's hand and
kept wallking to Godric. I placed my hand over
his chest and pushed him back till he was out
the door.
He frowned for a second and opened his
mouth. "Sky-"
I slammed the door on him before he could
finish. I walked back to the bar and on my
way, I grabbed my cup from Ethan's hand. I
refilled my cup but this time I made sure it
was full. I turned around to see some of the
guys talking and some on their phones with a
beer in their hands.
"To us. The best family I could ever ask for," I
said holding up my glass.
They cheered like maniac's and then the door
opened again. It became quiet and I glared at
Godric.
"What part of the door slamming in your
face do you not understand?" I groaned in
frustration. I turned to Randy who was 8 feet
away from me.
"Remind me to delete his handprint on the
house," I spoke and he nodded.
"Would you just hear me out?" he exclaimed.
Before I could reply, James butt in. "Dude
just leave. If she doesn't want you here then
there's no point. You have to see things from
her point of view."
Godric made a tight fist to the point where
you could see the white in his knuckles. "NO!"
he growled and I stood there in shock. I wasn't
scared or anything but his growl. It didn't
sound like a human growl. It sent chills down
my spine.
"I know your dumbass is not talking to me."
James grinned through his teeth.
Godric was about to make a move but I butt
in. "I swear if you lay a hand on James, I will
personally kick your *** to the point where
you can't even sit," I threatened.
Godric looks at me and then at James. He
released a sigh of defeat and slowly put his
hand down before walking down the hallway.
"Where the hell do you think you're going?!" I
yelled but stood in my spot.
"To get water," he shouted back. I looked up at
the ceiling and let out a heavy sigh.
I walked over to James who was feet away
from the closed door. "You okay?" I asked then
sipped on my drink.
He nodded. "He's so different now," he
mumbled and I couldn't agree more.
Ding Dong.
"I got it," I smiled at James who returned the
smile then started making his way to the bar.
I turned on my heels and opened the door. A
guy about 6 feet and something inches were
standing there. He had brown hair and a
body worth drooling over. His shirt was fitted
so you could see his abs. Both his arms were
filled with tattoos. This dude most likely had
his whole upper body filled with tattoos since
you could see his neck covered in it. His smile
was gentle and warm. I realised I was being a
creep and gave a small smile.
"How may I help you?" I softly spoke.
"Well, my car kind of shut down and I can't
call anyone because my phone died. May I
use a phone or something to call someone,"
he spoke with a deep voice yet it came out so
angelic.
"Of course, come on in," I smiled, opening
the door wider for him. He thanked me and
stepped inside the lobby.
"Who's that?" Mason asked nodding to the
guy.
"My name is Lucifer," he smiled introducing
himself. The room got quiet for a brief
moment at his name.
"You're serious?" Justin asked, breaking the
silence.
Lucifer smirked, "Dead serious."
"Yo, that's dope as ****," Randy shouted
across the room.
"Thanks," Lucifer grinned.
I shook my head and remembered his reason
for being here.
"Ohh phone. Sorry." I apologized as I walked
over to the counter for my phone. As I was
heading back over to him, I unlocked my
phone before passing it to him.
While he was dialing the number, it suddenly
hit me. "Quick question. How did you get to
the door?" I was a bit concerned.
In order to get to the front door, you need
to get past the front gates which require a
fingerprint, car recognition scan, or pin. If you
have none of those, then you'd simple buzz in
and someone would let you through.
"Your gate was opened," he spoke as he smiled
at me before looking back down at my phone.
I rolled my eyes. "Gabe needs to learn how to
close the gate," I sighed. He's the only one who
forgets to close the front gate.
I looked around to see the guys mingling
amongst themselves.
"How long does it take that fucker to get
a glass of water," I mumbled referring to
Godric.
Gabe then walked into the lobby with an
annoyed look on his face, "The dumbass is
trying to calm himself down. Don't see why he
has a reason to be mad when it should be you
who is mad," he informed me.
"Dude you need to remember to close the gate
every time you come in," Richie reminded him
before hitting him upside the head.
"Oww! What the **** Rich! I did close it,"
Gabe spoke rubbing the back of his head.
I was about to say something but dipshit
walked back in. "I'm back," he chirped, not
taking his eyes off the phone in his right hand
while a glass of water in his left.
"Bummer," I mumbled.
I turned around to look at Lucifer who no
longer had my phone in his hand. He was
full-on glaring at Godric.
"Uhh, where's my phone?" I asked, looking at
both of his empty hands.
I then heard something shatter. The room
got silent again and I turned to see where the
noise came from. Godric had dropped the cup
of water causing the glass to shatter. His face
was drained of emotions as if he had seen a
ghost.
"Did you really think you could run?" a deep
voice behind me chuckled addressing Godric.
"What?" I muffled out in confusion.
Godric opened his mouth to speak but
stuttered. "I-I thought I lost you," his voice
shook with fear. It was weird, I never saw
Godric like this before.
"You are probably the stupidest Demon ever,"
Lucifer chuckled deeper.
"You're a what!?!" I yelled trying to process
what was happening in front of me.
Godric sighed then looked at me, "A Demon."
I paused for a moment and started to walk
over to James but a hand grabbed my wrist
and pulled me back. It was Lucifer. His grip
tightened around my wrist as I was next to
him. I tried to get out of his grip but somehow
he was really strong. I tried to use my powers
but nothing was happening. All my guys had
their backup pistols pointing to Lucifer.
"I would stop trying if I was you. I'm immune
to your powers," Lucifer informed me as he
glared at me.
After a while I stopped, then it hit me. "What
does all this have to do with me or my guys?
I mean if you're after Godric, he's right there.
You can have him," I spoke.
"You want to tell her or should I?" Lucifer
asked Godric who was still shocked. "I guess
I will. He was going to kill you and take your
powers just so he can be more powerful than
me," Lucifer explained.
I slouched in his arm as I was looking at
Godric hoping to see if it was a lie. Nothing.
His eyes didn't have any emotions towards
Lucifer's explanation.
"It could've worked if you hadn't shown up,"
Godric spat.
My guys turned to Godric and fired but he
disappeared. So much for having a childhood
with that piece of shit. He should have died
during that 12 years. I didn't realize my name
was being called until Lucifer turned me
around so we were face to face.
"You okay?" he asked.
I just nodded and turned around. I started
running up the stairs and knew tears were
streaming down my face. Someone grabbed
my hand and pulled me down into their
chest. I burst out crying through their chest.
Everything bottled up was now coming back
to me. The person's arm wrapped around me
and rubbed my back.
"It's going to be alright. We're not going to let
anything happen to you. Don't cry," James
spoke soothing words to me.
He held me as I cried continuously. Everything
kept replaying in my head like a movie and
I felt more overwhelmed than ever. Out of
everything that has happened to me, this is
the one thing that broke me.
