All Chapters of The Mafia & The Queen Bee: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I woke up feeling groggy and totally out of it. I knew that I wasn’t in my room at my house but I was not so surprisingly calm about being at a stranger’s house. After all, he did save my life last night… Even if I didn’t need any saving. And as far as I knew, I wasn’t dead. I knew that I was fine since I couldn’t feel any pain anywhere except in my arm which some weird guy had gripped onto a little tighter than necessary.  Well, whatever. I was visibly unharmed… And still in the same short dress that I wore to the club last night. That’s a good sign, right? I had had a lot to drink the night before but as usual, I didn’t have any hangover.

“But she can be of some use to us, you know?” I heard whispers outside the door of the room I was staying in when I was about to go to sleep. Couldn’t they talk somewhere else? Ugh!  Gosh! These people sure knew how to annoy the hell out of someone! After that little chat with Mr. Knight, the girl who I saw murdering someone, Thea, took me to another room. And this room had a bathroom. And clothes.  Such a relief! Thea told me that I was going to be here a while so I should freshen up.  At least they understood the meaning of sanitation!

“Yeah, I’m not doing this.” I smiled at Thea, crossing my arms. There was no way in hell that I was taking a gym class now with this girl when I managed to avoid it at school for four freaking years! Nope! It’s definitely not happening. She rolled her eyes at me as she started doing her stretching exercises.  “If I were you, I would start stretching because you’re gonna have to do this.” Thea told me.  No, sister. Never! “There is no way that I’ll even consider doing this shit!” I told her honestly. I don’t think that these people actually understand what kind of a creature I really am.

“What are we supposed to be doing right now?” I whispered, looking around in the dark room.I am so damn excited!“Be in bed, I guess.” Lucas answered in a hushed voice as we hid behind the couch. Ha! I feel like a kid in a huge candy shop!“We’re supposed to be getting the rest we need to work efficiently the next day.” Thea spoke in a deep voice, trying to imitate Archer’s voice.Ha! That’s definitely something he’d say… “And why exactly aren’t we doing that?” A 16-year-old, Oliver, asked. 

“Blue or green?” I asked Thea.  “What?” She frowned as she looked up from the file she was reading about the mission she was going on in a few hours.  This was one of our last few days here before we went to the headquarters so everyone was busy doing something or the other and I was just bored.  “Which colour button do you think Lucas will press? Blue or green?” I asked her. “Why will he press any button?” She asked.  “Oh he will.” I waved her question off.  “Okay…” She spoke cautiously. “Now, blue or green?” I asked.  She looked at me sceptically and
