~Madelyn~

I wake up and I'm fucking starving , I guess that's what happens when you get totally wasted the night before . I turn over in my bed and reach for my phone from my side table , ordering enough food to feed a country. Mainly because I don't cook and even if I did my house lacks all the possible ingredients for creating anything edible.

I then drag myself to the bathroom. I almost scare myself in the mirror due to the fact that I look like an absolute shitshow . Actually no , a shitshow looks way better. I attempt to make myself look decent , which is difficult because a hangover really isn't fun. I try to put myself together before my doorbell rings. I immediately sprint to the door , my hangover temporarily forgotten. I open the door much more aggressively than necessary , and realise I probably look like a starving rat to this delivery man.

"Delivery for Madelyn Hale?" He asks softly , looking at me slightly concerned and I grab my food smiling.

"That's me." I say softly , quickly paying him and muttering a tired "thank you" before closing the door.

Nothing is worth this hangover. Or at least that's what I like to believe until I remember the reason I was drinking in the first place. My mom?dead. Dad? The motherfucker who killed her when I was only 9 . Luckily for me he's been in prison for 16 years where I could keep my eyes on him . Unfortunately he was released two days ago , or more like he escaped and has gone completely underground, so who has been my saviour? Alcohol. Yep , pretty solid reason to drown in substances.

I pick my phone and call Gwen. Gwen's been working in my club for two years now and she's pretty much my best friend. Despite owning a few of the best nightclubs in LA at 25 , friends are pretty scarce for me. At least that's how I prefer to keep things.

"Hey are we still on for tonight" I ask as soon as she answers . No hello necessary because I'm on a mission. I can almost hear the smile in her voice as she responds.

"Getting totally hammered? Obviously" she says with a giggle and I smile.

"The best way to get over a hangover is to just drink more." I say enthusiastically and she laughs softly.

"That's the worst advice I've ever heard in my life." She says and I laugh slightly.

"It's definitely not advice." I say softly. "If that's what you wanted then I would be the worst person to ask."

"Very true." She says softly and I roll my eyes but can't help my slight smile.

"See you tonight?" I ask softly.

"See you then." She says softly and I smile before hanging up.

I walk over to my couch while simultaneously stuffing my face with food because I'm just that good at multitasking. I sink into my couch before switching the TV on. The TV immediately goes to a news channel where they are announcing the escape of my father dearest. Like I didn't already know about that. The police requested to put me into protective custody because they know as well as I do that that bastard is probably targeting me. I shot down their request though because I secretly prayed that he would try to confront me .

I may have been 9 before but I definitely wasn't now and I had plans for him that didn't include putting him back in jail. It included finishing him off for good.
