"Hurry." The man said, pushing my back lightly.

"Easy on her." Screamed Kyle.

I was scared, so scared of where we were going. All I know is that we are going to the North Side which was enough for me to just fear for my life.

"Damn your own business, can you young man?"

I wanted to tell Kyle to stop. He was one of the Noth Side family maids which means he had power. We will too but I did rather not.

"How about you both just shut up and get in the car?" Said the man that was inside with us, talking to Miss Brooklyn.

Miss Brooklyn. How happy she was when she saw us waking out that door, knowing we won't be coming back. Julia too. She was laughing with her mother as if her dream just came true. Were we that bad? But Hailey! Hailey was crying. She hugged my brother too tight and whispered something I will never forget my entire life; I just found you and now you are leaving me.

What did that mean? And for once my brother seemed like he cared about what she had in mind to say to him. He listened to her, hugged her, comfort her just in front of her mother's eyes and she seemed like she didn't care. She shouldn't anyway, they won't be seeing each other anytime soon if it wasn't ever again.

We got in the car and it slowly drove out Miss Brooklyn's mansion door. And for the first time in three, almost four, years, I am getting out of this place. For the first time in years I felt like breathing normally again. Despise the fact that we are going to be maids in the bad corner of the whole country, I felt happy leaving this place behind. Maybe being a maid in someone you don't know's house is much better than being a maid in your own family's house and get treated even more bad than them.

The streets were empty when we drove down the road. It wasn't so late but not so early too. I lay my head on my brother's shoulder and closed my eyes even if I knew I wouldn't fall asleep anytime soon and as my brother said; it's gonna be a long ride.

"Ana." Some soft voice rang through my ears and a soft hand shook my shoulder. "Ana wake up. We are here."

I knew we were here but the fear inside me that couldn't stop and prevent me from sleeping all the way here was also the one that didn't let me breath normally again and open my eyes to see where this car ended up driving me.

"Ana?" Kyle's soft voice impatiently said again and I slowly forced my eyes open. "Common, we are here."

I once again forced myself to get out of the car and walk next to him somewhere unfamiliar. My heart beats were faster than I could handle and I didn't even know why. Why was I that scared? What could possibly happen to me?

"Where are we going sir? Who's mansion is this?" Kyle asked the driver that drove us all the way here and I realized that the man that was talking to Miss Brooklyn back at her mansion whom was with us in the car was no where to be near which made me wonder where he is and what he is planning against us.

"This is the mansion of The Royals." He shorty answered, walking faster to the door.

"Do they know we are coming?" Kyle pushed for more details and as much as I wanted more myself I liked being here not knowing much. It's sort of easier for me to guess for the best.

"Supposedly they should. Mister Robertson said that Miss Brooklyn called them here." He said.

"Mister Robertson?" Kyle confusedly asked.
