The Mafia's Little Prince

Seven

✧⋆⋆✧ Phoebe's POV ✧⋆⋆✧

I sat with a side glare toward Leonhart. Why the hell did he pull the fire alarm?! Now I'm not getting my phone back. Not just that, I lost it for another two days since Leonhart was not only found with a busted lip, but he PULLED THE DAMN FIRE ALARM!

"You understand why what you did wasn't funny, nor okay, son?" The fire chief was scolding Leonhart while Alfonzo stood beside Leo. I watched as Leo squeezed the sides of his hoodie. I rolled my eyes.

"I did it." I'm going to regret this...

"The staff from the store said she saw him and others running, nothing about an older girl." The chief stated.

"And the cameras only point towards the checkout." I snapped back. "So, she was wrong. I pulled it." Leonhart looked at me with wide eyes. I smirked at him. He owes me big time. He knew what my smirk meant since he gave a nod.

"How old are you?" The chief asked. 

"17." I spoke as Alfonzo stepped over to me.

"Don't. Leonhart needs to learn what he did was wrong. You will get arrested and Genevieve will kill you." He warned. "He's letting Leo off with a warning. You, you'll go to jail until Genevieve comes and bails you out. I praise you for protecting your little brother but-"

"I'm not protecting no one. I did it. I thought I saw smoke, so I pulled it." I already regretted this but...Leonhart looking scared all the time bothered me...

"You'll need to come with us, miss." The chief took my arm gently. Alfonzo groaned in frustration before walking over to Leonhart and the twins. Leo ran over to me.

"Are you going to be okay?" He whispered. I gave him a shove and watched him stumble back confused.

"I'll see you later. You own me."

I was placed in the police car and sighed. Well, not like Genevieve hasn't come to bail me out before.

♕°°♕ Genevieve POV ♕°°♕

I had spent hours drilling the child services and some cops. Even some damn teachers from Leonhart's school. They not only didn't have proper paperwork on his schooling, it was clear they kept things under the rug if they got paid.

I had only gotten back in the cab with Lennox when my phone rang. I answered it after buckling up.

"Alfonzo. What is it?" I asked, already knowing something was wrong. He would never call me otherwise when I'm on a task such as this.

"Well...."

"Alfonzo, I swear if you lost, killed, harmed or broken one of the children, Leonhart especially, I'll kill yo-"

"Phoebe's been arrested." He spoke over me. I gritted my teeth. Since my phone was on speaker, Lennox groaned.

"Why?" Lennox asked since I had my head back on the seat in frustration.

"Well, the fire alarm was pulled at the mall." He spoke. His tone was off.

"But? There's a but in there." I spoke, opening my eyes.

"I am 98% sure that it wasn't her who pulled it."

I raised a brow. "Then who?"

"Leonhart."
