Girl in a Wolves Den

Aurora's Pov

Today I said goodbye to my mom for the last time. This time it was different from all the times before this time I said it to her tombstone.

I knew this day was coming but I didn't think it was going to be right before my 19th birthday. She has been sick since we left my father three years ago he was not a good man but he used to be a good husband and father.

He used to be loving and caring till one day he came home and it was like he was a different man. he was no longer loving and far from caring.

Instead, he was a cold heartless abusive man that I didn't know.

I have seen him be cold to everyone but me and Mom. I don't blame him for that we were in the mafia and he was the boss so he had to be that's rule number one show no weaknesses.

I'm still standing in front of my mom's tombstone staring at it just thinking when I feel a hand on my shoulder when I feel it my first instinct is to flip them over my shoulder and that's exactly what I do they hit the ground with a thud.

"Fuck Arie it's just me" he grunts out

"Shit Damien are you ok I'm so sorry I didn't mean to," I rush out to my best friend who Is a want to be a bodyguard. I help him up and dust him off.

"Yeah I'm ok are you?" Why is he asking if I'm fine I didn't just get flipped over a shoulder.

"Yeah I'm fine I didn't just get flipped over a shoulder," I said with a confused look on my face.

"Arie you are all of 5′5 You are strong but that's it, all you did was knock the wind out of me I'm fine, I wasn't talking about that anyway, you have been standing here for an hour," he says with worry in his tone and it's all over his face.

I have been best friends with him since we were five he was in my father's mafia with me he left when me and my mom did.

he saw what was going on and helped us out, I was about to reply to what he said when we heard gunshots "fuck" I said while we ducked for cover and got our guns out we might not be in the mafia anymore but we still carry and go with our training. It's in our blood we have been training since we turned 8 and still do just not the same way.

"Well I think you might need to change those flight plans Arie," he says with a chuckle "the fuck I do," I say and look to see how many people there are, soon as I look there was a bullet that zipped past my head.

I look at Damien laughing "You're crazy," he said laughing with me "You know you love me, there are 4 men two on the right and two on the left and can you guess whose men they are" After I said this I yelled "you missed bitches"
