All Chapters of Babysitting the Mafia Princess: Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

“I hate him, I really do!” Sky said, and this time, she meant it with the full force of her lungs. She paced across her room like a caged animal, back and forth and back again.Lambert flattened his ears and whimpered, then buried his nose beneath a paw.Sky let out a huge sigh. She threw herself backwards onto her mattress, arms splayed, hair fanning out behind her. She closed her eyes and tried to picture Charlie’s stupid, perfect face so she could punch it in her mind, but it just made her feel even angrier.He always did this…stood there, all calm and unmovable, like a wall someone had painted to look like a person. He was supposed to take care of her, do what she wanted, and instead he treated her like some annoying toddler you had to keep from sticking forks in the outlets.She punched her pillow, then screamed into it. It was not satisfying.Nothing was. Not after being told no.“Ugh!” she groaned and rolled over, grabbing her phone, swiping it open and closed, then tossing it

The hoodie fell away, and silver light caught every corner of the car.Her dress shimmered like liquid metal. It clung to her curves, tiny sequins catching every flicker of streetlight. It was short…very short and the neckline dipped just enough to make it look exp

The next day at school, Sky decided to get back at Charlie. Anger burned through her veins and she knew only one thing could make her feel better.Revenge.Charlie walked a few steps behind her, silent and steady as always.Sky slammed her locker open and glared at her books like they personally offended her. “You ruined everything,” she muttered under her breath.Charlie stopped beside her, watching the hallway like he expected danger to leap out of a biology classroom. “You are still angry.”Sky grabbed a textbook a little too aggressively. “You dragged me out like a bag of trash.”“You were in a club you had no business being in,” he repeated the same thing he said last night and Sky wanted to punch him. Or choke him. Or glue his shoes to the floor. She was still thinking about which option was best.As they walked toward her first class, Mila ran up to her, hair bouncing and mascara slightly smudged.“Girl!” Mila whispered loudly. “You disappeared last night!
