Chapter 1
Rose
"Stop it!" I screamed so hard as my father continues to punch my face over and over again.
I cried out hoping my brother doesn't walk in on us. I don't need him seeing this.
Seeing my naked body under our father. Seeing me being attack by him.
"Your a whore just like your druggie mother!" Father screams as he punches my face and started pulling my hair.
"I'm nothing like her! I don't even do drugs like her please stop it!" I cried out but he doesn't.
Tears form my eyes as I saw my brother walked in with groceries. He screamed and dropped them and my father looked over.
"Get your hands off my sister you fucking drunk!" Jackson screamed as he tries to push father off me.
"She deserves to burn in hell!" Father screams and then started choking me.
I couldn't breathe. I couldn't move. I felt like everything was in slow motion.
And then a bang!
I screamed when father body went numb and Jackson pushed him off me.
I checked to see if he was dead and then I looked at Jackson with wide eyes. "He was going to k-kill you! It was either him or you and frankly I chose him." He mumbled the last part.
I quickly threw on some clothes and we started pacing around. "We have to leave! Our father is the fucking lieutenant! They didn't believe us the first time they're not going to believe this is self defense. We were all alone on this one." My brother said and started going through his pockets.
He grabbed some cash and stole my father's cash. "We was always alone. The system failed us." I whispered and ran to pack some bags for both me qnd my brother.
I ran into my father room and stolen some money from the safe and me and my brother ran out the house before we heard the police sirens.
We kept running and running and running until we couldn't hear them anymore.
"W-we need to leave new york." I told my brother.
Where could we go to last us 600 dollars!" He yelled with frustration.
"Father had 4000 dollars in his safe all cash that I took." I told him honestly.
"What the hell was he doing with that?" He asked.
"I don't know but now we have it. And now we need to stick together. Okay it's us against the world." I told him.
"Why didn't you tell me father was hurting you?" He asked with tears in his eyes.
"I didn't want him to go after you too. He threatened you. He said it was either me or you. And I'm your big sister. I'll do anything to protect you." I started to cry too and he hugged me.
"We are supposed to look out for each other. I would had stopped it." He cried out on my shoulder.
"I know. This is literally the first time I ever saw you do anything bad." I said sniffling.
"Well he deserved what he got." We both agreed and then we turned around and heard something in the alley.
"Please I didn't steal from you, I would never do that to you." A guy cried out.
We looked around and saw four men pointing a gun at the man on the ground.
The four men was like tall and buff. Even at night you couldn't tell these guys are handsome. One black, and the rest look like they could be Hispanic or something. All black hair but one had a man bun.
The one on the ground was a white man. Tattoos on his face. "I gave you one month to give me whats mine! I shouldn't even gave you a day! You took money from me and you think I'm just going to let it go?" The ring leader said.
I noticed because the three other guys where standing behind him like he was the boss.
But they still had their guns out. We heard a bang and I told Jackson we need to run like now.
We ran and ran until someone stopped us with a gun in our face. Oh oh.
"Listen. We just want to know what you saw." The guy from the alley said. But he wasn't the leader. He was the one standing behind him. This one had a tattoo of a skull on his neck and brown eyes. He has freckles on his face and his hair was a dark brown.
"We didn't see anything." I told him.
"Yeah, while why are you running?" He asked me.
"Are you aware that we have bags on our body?" My brother answered him.
The guy looked us up and down and continued to look around Jackson.
The rest of the guys ran towards this one and they just stared at us. It was late at night so no one else is out here.
"Shame two pretty faces are about to be dead." One of them said.
"Awe you think I'm pretty?" Jackson asked causing one of them to smuggle a laugh.
"We don't want to have to do this, since the police are on their way. So get in the van." A guy said.
"What va-
We was shoved into a van and tears started to form my eyes.
"Holy shit Jackson. We have been kidnapped." I said breathing heavy.
"Yesh by the king." A guy said and a needle struck my neck and with that darkness.
