we stop at some services. I get out and light my cig straight away passing one to Sarah. we stand at the car talking.
" so what we eating" ellie says
" hmmm burger King sounds good" I say
" sounds good. double whopper meal with a coke plz" Sarah says looking around.
" ohh make that 2 ellie plz" I say
ellie raises an eyebrow at us
"oh so I'm going am I. when was this arranged"
" well it was your idea" I say
"fine behave you 2" ellie says ans walks away.
I've been watching Sarah for a few minutes now and she's been staieinf at the same place the entire time. I look were she's looking and find a group of men watching us trying to look inconspicuous. oh my these guys. a simple dragon tattoo on their knecks. Well I quess we are being watched. I walk over and nod at them.
" so what are you lot doing here and were is Dominic ask
Dominic comes out "im here sexy what are you doing dee. not like you to be out and about put of school"
" you spying on me Dom. and please don't call me sexy. it makes me feel dirty when you say it. And what I'm doing is none of ypu concern"
" I see you black listed a contract. ita been a while since you've done that Lillie" dom says all the men around start mumbling something.
dom is one of those men that believe women should lie under a man and not be apart of this world so he likes to put me in my place when eve he can.
" now come on Lillie you know women shouldn't being doing this kinda of work. they could ruin the nice face of yours. ypu could be my women instead I would look after you. you would never want for anything" blimey this man
I just laph at him
" ya know I am quit capable but thanks. and I'd rather do D.I.Y with a rusty spoon and a scouring bad than have you touch me but thanks. keep you self to yourself dom your allready on the watch list" I say and wqlk away
" you know you want me lillie" dom shouts
he keeps going like this and he will have a contract on him. you see I maybe number one but we still have a group of old farts we all answer too. all groups have rules we don't step in on others. we don't cause trouble between groups and I'd one marry into another rules are put in place for it. if a marriage happens a week of peace is in place. no family is aloud to take on a contract and every family has to have 5 men/women are placed on watch to make sure every family comply
I walk over to the car as ellie comes back and hands us our food.
" do I need to worrrie"ellie asks
I look back over at dom and his group. dom notices and blows me a kiss
" no he is harmless and he's allready on thin ice he isn't stupid enough to course more trouple"i say
" im not sure dee he's been sending those invites to you since you were 16. he will do anything for the power you have" Sarah says
that's true. you see in our world if you want to combine family's you can send a request to the old farts for marriage from the age of 16 you are eligible. normally if they believe the combining of family's is a good fit it goes ahead whether you like it or not. luckily the old farts are scared of me so they allways send a messege to ask and I allways say no.
" true but I'll cut his d**k off first trust me" I say. poth girl giggle as we get in the car. I eat my food. when we are done I take the rubbish to the bin.
" yo Lillie. just a heads up. the snakes saw the contract you blacklisted" I look up and see dom stood their
" thanks for the info"
" look Lillie I do like you and I would take care of you why won't you except my invite" he rubs his hand through his hair.
" look at dom I'm not going to marry someone just so they get more power. I know it sounds sad but I want marry for love okay. we have enough s**t in our lives to not have a little happiness. if I have kids I want them to be loved" I say turning red why am I saying this.
"okay I get it but you will fall for me one day I'll make sure of it"he says before he walks away.
I turn to walk back to the car. don't get me wrong dom is hansom. blond hair blue eyes. broad shoulders and has muscles you can see that through his black suit he wears. I want more than that though. I want to be my man's world I want him to fight for me. you know were he would destroy the world just for me. that's what I want. I get in the car. we start on our road trip again.
" you know dragons are following right dee."
I nod at Sarah and her statement
"he not giving up is he dee" ellie says
"you should just kick his ass allready. and be done with it" Sarah says. I know she right but. I kinda like the i***t. and let's be honest I wouldnt say no to a role around with him I just don't want him to know that. the rest of the journey is listening to music checking the info on Anna and the people around her.
Mrs Fleming Foster home senior. she a tall skinny ladies with a drinking habit. abuses the children in her care. makes the children so the cleaning and cooking. reports show children how broken bones and cuts over their bodies. jamison fairbrother best friend of Anna. trys to protect het when he can. attends the same school. has a family. Well off. apart of half moon family.
" guys do you know much about half moon family. more to the point of Jamison" I ask the girls
" hmm yeah they are a small hitmen family. all related by blood. from what I know James on is the one in the family that doesn't follow in the footsteps. he does do the paper work for them though." ellie says.
"and how do tpu know that ellie"sarah asks
I think we all know how ellie knows that. this girl can get any info on anyone if she wanted.
I just lph and say thankyou. I just go back to the info infront of me. not much else other than the teachers and their back ground. no info on the people that placed the contract though. I ring si and he answers within 2 rings
"Hay boss what's up"
"werea the info on the people that placed the contract si. this ain't like you. oh and I want info on the snakes family's say ans Sarah raises an eyebrow and mouths " that's strange" to me I nod my head at her. she gets her laptop out and start typing away.
" im still looking boss. its not every day ypu ask for personal info on a contractor."
" okay si get it to me ASAP"i say and but the phone down and look at Sarah. si maybe my tech guy but Sarah is just as good. they only reason she is not my tech girl is because she would kill me if I put her behind a desk.
"well"i day to her.
"he's lieing boss. he has the info. Ita gonna take me some time to get through his fire walls to get the info though." she says with her head still looking at her computer.
I nod my head.
"okay doll sort it when we get to the house. msg Sam ans ask him to ring me when he's free. make sure he knows its work" I say to Sarah and she nods.
30 mind later my phone ringing
" yo boss what's up." it Dan
" Hay you've been to the house right. have you checked it over and everything."
" yeah boss about that. their were cameras placed in every room and listening devices in the phones. I took them out as I know ypu like your privacy. I've not mentioned it to si though he's been acting shifty"
" okay thanks looks like im gonna need a hand here. you up for doing some back ground info for me. normal rate" I say.
" yeah course ellie. I'll get on It now. If you need me let me know okay" okay this is getting put of hand and I've not even got their yet.
" Sarah I need ypu to look into tech Inc please. something tells me theirs more to this than I first thought" Sarah just nods.
we arrive at the house. perfect little house. 4ft fence large front yard. pathway leading to the door. it a large brick building nothing fancy. witch is good.
we park the car in the drive and walk towards the door. ellie places her hand above the door and crqpa the key that is hidden in a hole. she unlocks the door and we walk in. open plan living room and kitchen. not bad large enough to have a dinning table too. I through the living room a corner sofa. I hate those things. a swivel chair in the corner. a large flat screen TV on thr wall. a book self on the left of the and a stereo system on the right on a self. I walk to the kitchen a black and white colour theme nothing fantastic. washer dryer in the kitchen and double counter top cooker. micro wave and an air fryer. Air fryers are my best friends. I walk to the back door and look into the back yard. not bad really. it big with a bbq at the end and table and chairs. looks nice. plenty of grass and enough room to relax in. I smile to my self think I should stay here. I walk up stairs and the girls start to follow me. quess we are fighting for the best room. ha little do the know we doing this right. ellie will get the master room no matter how much I dislike the idea.
"ellie is master room as she is playing guardian. all other rooms are fair game" I say. ellie practically does a happy dance. Sarah groans mumbling something under her breath.
we find the master room at the top of the stairs. not bad onsuit. king size bed wardrobe and chest I'd draws. small flat screen TV on the wall. and I window looking put into the main street look at houses identicle to this one.
Sarah picks hers I pick mine. lucky me I get a insult too. Bath with a show. marble looks nice. my room has a double bed in it. suppose I should make the bed and get my stuff put of the car. I walk down stairs to find Sarah and ellie disgusting food plans for the night..
" dee what you fancy for tea. we have pizza or Chinese" ellie says
"pizza" I say
I walk out to the car with Sarah behind me.
" Hay sexy so we gonna be napours" I turn to see a smiling dom standing on the footpath. I scrunch up my nose at him. perfect stalker it is.
" you got nothing better todo dom. not in need of a stalker right now." I say
" no babe I start a new school on Monday so dad moved me here didn't know you were moving here too" he says with a smug look.
I just crap my s**t from the car and storm back into the house and ring Simon. I've left dom standing their looking like I killed his cat or something.
" wtf si I pay you to tell me when things are happening. did ahir slip your mind"
"look boss I'm sorry OK I didn't know to tell you that I think that Anna girl maybe your little sister okay" waite what I stunned silent. I've stopped walking and Sarah slams into my back. I never had a alittle sister. I don't remember no sister. I would remember a sister right. " ellie ..... ellie ..... ypu their. look I'm sorry I was gonna give that contract to the snakes it's alot of money but when I found out that she could be related to you I did what you said I promise I did" si is still talking.
" si enough. we will talk about you back stepping me later. but right now I need all the info on her being my sister got it everything" I say and put the phone down.
"girls we need to talk" I say as I pick my stuff up and drop it off in my room. I meet the girls on the sofa. I fill them in on what Simon said.
"f**k dee ypu didn't tell us" ellie says
"I didn't know on top of that how have 8 got I sister I new nothing about"
" leave with me dee I look into it I found some info on tech Inc. I don't think your gonna like it though but it kinda makes sense now. look from what I found the company was owned by your late grandfather but died. your folks were passed by then and noone Could find you. they found our about Anna but I'm not sold on her being your sister. I would say cousin maybe. no records say your folks had another child. you did have an uncle but no info on him after he turned 21. I'm still looking. the only time one can't find info is if they are apart of a family and high ranking. I do have a name so I'm still looking. might take a few days though" Sarah tells me with out any emotion on her face.
"okay thanks Sarah. ellie I need you to get a job at Inc and get closer with the head. sorry sweets" I say
" no worries. so we doing recon for now" ellie says. I nod and slump back into the sofa. so I do have an actual family somewhere. and if tech Inc is apart of my family's I'll make damn sure Anna gets it. I don't want it. I can barely manage the 15 people under me. we decide to simple watch movies and have pizza and have a quiet night. I get a phone call off si telling me Anna has been placed with us but we have to have someone come round and check the house is to their standards. as long as everything goes okay she will be with us wirhin 2-3 weeks. gast I know but you'll be amazed at what we can do.
all those dips look for is food in the Cupboards and they have a bed. they don't care about the people fostering really.
it's easier to protect her if she lives with us.
the weekend went by quick sorting the house. buying a dining table and a few lqpha. we even invited dom over for a bbq. the man maybe a perv but the man can cook.
it's Sunday night and me and the girls are sat down discussing what todo with si. I've taken him off anything todo with the family for now. I don't really have a tech guy right now so Sarah is doing it. we keep going back and forth Sarah think he should be report for family disputes. this would normally be dealt with by the old farts. when a contract is black listed it has to be done straight away. if the contract is set on an actual blood relative then old farta take over. they will check if it will cause an inside war or not. now that ita come to light she maybe some blood relative of mine every family has been informed and told to stay away. as I have said I will cause war for my blood family. I sonr have any so I will end every hitmen family for it. all my people have been informed. 5 have come over and taken up residence here so their are 7 of us now. that's more than half of my family here to protect my little cousin/sister. everyone under me are loyal and we protect each like an actual family. I maybe be the boss but we still get along.
"he can't just get away with it. he's needs to be dealt with. we have dealt with killing." Sarah says. this girl scares me sometimes.
" come on Sarah don't ya think that's extrwam the dude was after money that's all" ellie replya. we have been arguing about this for ans hour when my phone rings. unknown number
" Hay sexy. heard about your little problem. I'm not happy about your tech. ill give a helping hand if ya like" it dom how the hell did this guy get my work number. okay I did not give the dragons enough credit. their good or at least maybe his twck guy is.
"hmmmm how did you get my number . maybe I should kidnap you tech guy and make him an offer he can't refuse. but on a serious note im not sure I can let you do that im not for owning anyone a favour you know. and I'm not sure what todo about it right now"
