Saved By The Devil - BOOK 1 ✔ (Edited)

Chapter 1 (Edited)

"Get your bitch ass up now!!" Jerry, my foster father, yelled while throwing a punch down on me as I lay in bed.

"What a wonderful thing to wake up to," I thought as the pain struck my side. I quickly got up and ran to the bathroom before Jerry could throw another punch.

"You better be down in 5 minutes or else," He yelled while banging on the door. I let out a sigh as I watched the vibration on the door come to a stop.

"Or else what? It's not like if I get ready in time you're not going to beat me up either way," I let out a tired yawn.

Last night was a hell of a mission. No, literally! I was assigned to take out a gang transporting drugs on the dock. Made 325k from that alone. Working for this secret organization the government has is sometimes a pain in the ass though. Every mission I do, I literally get shot at. Not so fun dodging bullets every second. Growing up my biological parents saw I had these miraculous gifts like telekinesis and controlling the weather. I have some other powers but I don't care to explain.

Sometimes, my powers were uncontrollable which caused my family and me to be under surveillance. Eventually, the government found us, specifically one of the leaders of the organization who went by Henry. He offered my family a deal; I work for them and in return, they pay us. Seeing as how we were poor we agreed.

As time went on my parents adopted more kids into the family. More like these kids found us to be honest. I have 22 brothers. All who now live in my mansion together. I know what you're wondering. Why stay with these foster assholes of parents if I have money?

Simple.

My parents spoke with Henry, informing them that if anything were to happen with them, I would be placed away from my brothers because I can be a threat to everyone else considering how 'special' I am. So, I was placed in a foster home where no one has tracked me yet to my knowledge. I tried to argue my point to Henry saying I would be fine if I lived with my brothers but he wouldn't go against my parents' wishes. He didn't know my foster parents were abusive and I wasn't planning on telling him either. It honestly didn't bother me. I've been through the worst before.

After showering and getting dressed, I walked downstairs at full speed. Before Jerry or Cindy could physically abuse me, I ran out the door.

"GET BACK HERE YOU LITTLE SLUT!!" Cindy, Jerry's wife, yelled by the door. I ignored her and walked to school with my phone in my hand.

Ding!

It was a message from Ethan. Ethan was my second oldest brother. Ethan and the rest of my brothers were also trained in the organization. They chose to work with me of their own free will which was kind of nice. Some missions we do aren't just about drugs. Sometimes it's trafficking of some sort, protecting someone or something, recovering stolen goods, busting arms dealers, and even defusing bombs. Everyone in the family is a specialist in a certain type of combat. Ethan's skilled in water combat.

Ethan and I talked on the phone while I walked to school. I let out a heavy sigh once I reached the main gates.

"I'll talk to you later and I might visit you guys after school," I spoke into the phone.

"Alright. Have a great day, Peaches," he replied in an eager tone. I mentally chuckled and said my goodbyes.

"It's Monday. You can get through this," I mumbled to myself boosting whatever motivation is left.

I walked in and slowly headed to my first-period class knowing I'm already late. You would never see me rushing to class even if I'm late. As long as I pass I could give fewer fucks. I finally reached my class and walked in during the middle of a lecture. As usual, I received stares from students and the teacher just gave me a nod gesturing to have a seat.
