only for his Queen

chapter 2

Astrid's POV
      I wake up to the dogs barking at me, and my alarm going off upstairs. Oh yeahhh! I roll off the couch and trudge upstairs, the dogs following me the whole way. Assholes. I swear they are part human. I jump in the shower and wake up. Stepping out again i get dressed in high waisted black jeans, with a strapless white lace crop top and a light pink kimono, paired with light pink/ almost white converse. I step into my room, from my walk-in closet and grab my school bag.
  Walking downstairs, my babies go outside through their doggy door, while I put food and water down for them, and grab myself a apple. I pet the dogs as they come back inside and then give them a kiss goodbye.
    I Sdrive to a local cafe, get a coffee, and go to school. Walking in, I dont hesitate to push the bimbo out of my way when she gets in front of me. Grabbing what i need from my locker I go to class. And there are the bad boys.
    I sit down and begin writing notes on what was already on the board. As the bell rings one of the bad boys trys to get my attention. Looking over bored, "do we have any... Drawings on us today?" He asks... I think its Rodgers. Looking them over, "no." I state nonchalantly. I go back to paying attention and take more notes and do my work on what the teacher is talking about. They try several more times to get my attention but failing miserably.
    At lunch Michael come with more food. I think he just likes to check up on me, but he says its cause they (my uncles) want to spoil me. Im the only girl in the family. My uncles have a kid or two each but they are all boys.
    As I open the bag with tacosssss, theres a envelope. I open it and read over it. Its from uncle J.
    So whites family took in Rodgers and Josephs. Their parents died around the time they were 10. In some kind of shoot out since they lived in the wrong neighnorhood. But for some reason.... I dont believe it was a random shoot out and that they were just passing by. I mean 2 families out of 3 who were friends, randomly shot... Nahh.
    I finish the paper and put it in my pocket as Rodgers and Josephs walk up to me. A cold look on their faces. "Who were you talking to?" They question. "My uncle." I say as if its nothing. I'm not embarrassed by my family. "Name!" They bark. No one orders me around. My face stays emotionless. "No." I say and stand up to walk away. As I reach the trash can white is standing there. I roll my eyes and throw away my trash and walk towards the school. "You do not get to walk away from us." A voice booms. Turning around I see it was white. "Watch me." I grit, turning away and walked inside and to class. The rest of the day they kept glaring at me. During last period, i was informed that my grandfather wanted to see me today. So 2 of his guards were coming to pick me up. One was to drive my car and one was to drive me.
   As i walked outside I saw the guards, near my car with theirs. "Princess." They say. I nod my head an go to hand my keys to one. "If you scratch it, you buy it and me a new one. After your time in the dungeon." I growl. Gulping he nods and gets in. I get in the other car and we drive off. Now I really wouldnt do that to them... But they dont have to know that.
     As we reach the mansion, the guard tells me that he is in bed. But when he leads me to him, we are going to the opposite side of the house, from his bedroom. "This is the way to the hospital wing." I say. "Yes princess." Fear crawls through me as we stop infront of one of the hospital rooms. "No." I say. "No. No. No. Nononono." I start backing away. Tears fill my eyes as the guard nods, and lowers his head. I walk in, eyes wide, and tears falling.
     When i walk in, I dont see my grandfather. But a old, weak, and sick man, in the shell of my grandfather. More tears fall as his eyes open. "My princess." He coughs. "My grand papi." I choke out. "Oh don't cry princess." "Yes grandfather." I say, wiping away my tears. "Honey.. It is my time." He says. His voice cracking. "No!" I yell. My uncles walk in. "Princess, sweety... You are to take" he starts, coughing. "You are to take my..." He takes deep breaths. "Place." He continues. It almost time. "As the.. Queen of the Mafia." He finishes. He smiles at me, and kisses my forehead one more time, with one last I love you, one last princess, and one.. Last.. Breath.
     Tears roll down my cheeks. "At 18 you will be the queen of the mafia neice. We will begin reporting to you the day of your birthday." My uncle Ezra says with tears running quietly down his and everyone elses face. Nodding my head, I walk through the house and to my car, driving home. Once I get there, I see the door open and pull out my gun. Walking in, I see the bad boys pinned down by Sandy, Mischief and Chance. "Enough." I breath out. The dogs move back and to my side. One on either side and sandy infront of me. "Why are you in my house?" I ask as I hide my gun back in my waist band and put my keys down, kicking the door closed. "We wanted to know who you are. The teachers wont tell us ur name, no one else in school knows you, and your records are completely sealed." White says, power coming off him. "It doesnt matter get out." I say, walking into the kitchen. "Tell us who you are." He growls with a gun to my head. "Princess?" Someone calls out. My eyes widen and I quickly rush out, "put your gun down and act like we are friends." I growl. "No." He smirks. I quickly rip the gun out of his hand, hurting his wrist. I shove it in his front waist band and grab his wrist. "What fight did you get into to hurt your wrist?" I ask. "Princess?" They call again. "In the kitchen Jared!" I call to grandfathers personal guard. I glare at the guys to keep their cool. "Is everything ok princess?" Jared asks. "Yes just some guys from school, they got into a fight at the end of the day, and I told them i would look at his wrist since they dont like hospitals." I reply acting cool. "Right... Well after your grandfathers pa..." "Don't!" I snap, closing my eyes. "Do you need to stay here? I know you used to stay with grandfather." I ask. I look behind white and see him nod. "Theres a spar bedroom upstairs. Not the one across from the one with the doggy door." He nods and takes a few bags upstairs. Now that grandfathers... Dead... He will be my personal guard. I finish wrapping whites wrist, "When did I grab the wrap?" I ask quietly. They all shrugged. "What ever get out before i make you." I growl at them. Shoving them outside i close and lock the door.
    Soon after jared comes down stairs and we sit on the couch with the dogs. "Hey.. I cant go with you to school, but I'm going to have our men change out with the school security guards." He informs. "Alright. Im gonna go to bed." He nods his head and we both head upstairs. The dogs going to their room and me and jared to our respective rooms.
     As soon as my head hits the pillow, im out. All the emotions from today have me completely drained.
