I'm His?

Chapter one

Elizabeth's POV

Beep beep beep
"Ugh, why did morning come."
And I slammed my hand on the alarm clock.

Another day in hell... wohoo (sarcasm obviously).

I got up from the couch I was sleeping on and shivered from the cold.

It was always cold in this tiny little apartment and I had no money to buy a blanket.

I had barely enough to pay the bills and buy food... sometimes. I'm really skinny because of the lack of food. And I work most of the time so there's really not much time to think about hunger anyway.

Oh gosh, I haven't introduced myself.

My name's Elizabeth Rose Parker and I'm 17 years old. I'm 5'2 tall and I feel like a little kid most of the time standing next to other people but there's nothing really I can do and the lack of food doesn't really help either. I have wavy chocolate brown hair that flows just under my ribcage and big, forest green eyes. A small button nose and rosy red lips.

I don't really remember my parents' names because they never really were there.

They threw me out when I was 15 because I wasn't mature enough. I still act like a child. I'm a child at heart, I guess.

I've had to survive on my own for the past years and it hasn't been easy.

I had to find a place to stay and had to get a job to pay for everything.

I have been blabbering enough I'm sure and I need to go before I'm late to work.

I work at a nearby restaurant. It's called The Leaf and it's actually pretty fancy so I'm not too sure how I got the job in there.

When talking to other people I tend to stutter a lot and I always get very nervous.

But I'm thankful I got the job because I don't think anyone wants a nervous and stuttering mess to work for them. I have nothing to complain about.

I get dressed in my work uniform and go out of the little apartment onto the street.

The restaurant is about a 25 minutes walk from here so I better hurry because my shift starts at 8 and it's already 7:30.

I got there on time and clocked myself in. I went to the backroom and went to my locker where my apron was and put it on.

I went back to the front and went to the cashier where Mary was working.

"Hey Liz, tables 5, 12, 15 and 21 okay?"

"Okay Mary."

And my workday has started.

*a while later*

(Still Elizabeth's POV)

I'm exhausted.

Today has been a very busy day and I'm glad that my shift is almost over.

"Lizzy could you please take table number 3?" Mary asked.

"Cassandra can't take it because she already has five tables and I know that your shift is almost over but please?"

I sighed. "Of course Mary." And with that I got up, grabbed my notebook and pen to write down the orders and went to table 3.

While walking I noticed who were sitting at that table and began to tremble.

At that table, sat the most feared man in the world, Mafia boss Alexander Knight and his two best men Lucas Wood and Jake Winters.
