Chapter 42

Sophia POV

Lara can I get help here please!! I scream from the top of the ladder where am holding up one part of the black banner the words, have a spooky Halloween scrawled on it

She turns away from the cookies she has been designing horribly walking towards me she helps me, ignoring the stare on my face I know they want to ask but they have been trying not to hurt me, walking on thin waters the whole morning since I came down without makeup covering the bruises

I walk into the kitchen Lara and Johnny following,I turn to meet with Rosie and Andrea, okay I know you all are wondering where I got the bruises from I start

Thank God I thought you were going to keep us in suspense forever Rosie breaths out a knife in hand

Yea if its that Prince I'm going to spank him so hard Andrea warns raising his spoon in the air the others agreeing with him.

I laugh slightly, I highly doubt you will be able to get past his guards, anyway I was attacked by a couple of thief's last night from the supermarket, I got a bit of a beating i frown, but i put up a fight but am okay I lie smoothly

Oh well that's a disappointment Johnny pouts making everyone laugh, the room goes silent when we hear a knock.

Did you guys hear that or am hearing things again? I frown

We hear the knock again and Andrea takes up the responsibility slowly walking to the back door he pulls it open as we hide at the corner of the kitchen.

Andrea I hiss who is that?

Uh welcome Prince Eric he walks away Alex following two guards behind him one I recognise from the night before, oh you've got to be kidding me I groan.

Why don't you add mother of dragons too it has a certain ring to it I roll my eyes at them.

Oh my God, soph are you okay? Alex walks forward pulling me Into a hug I wince, why don't you let go of me and I'll hit you where it hurts too.

He laughs leaning back, he's hands gripping my head in his the kitchen getting tighter, I wanted to know how you are doing Lester informed-"

I fucking told you to keep your mouth shut I turn to the guard at the back who helped me my guess Lester.

Its his Job Alex sighs rolling his eyes at me.

Oh he's job to follow me around like a creep and report back to you I grab his hands, I don't need your help Eric I spit out, my words tearing me apart bits by bits but I've got a warning I don't think I'll get another one.

He sighs he's eyes flashing with hurt, we checked the building near your attack it had a CCTV footage, those men it seemed like they were threatening you before-" don't bother about that do you know anyone who has a grudge against you at all.

My eyes move to Lester's blue ones, his blonde hair resting at the top of his head, am going to tell you the same thing I told him, I don't know them, they were ordinary thieves.

Ordinary thieves that dropped a really expensive dagger while running away that was pretty sketchy Lester says.

We just want to make sure you are safe soph, please tell me and I promise you they won't get away with it.

My eyes sting with tears from yesterday beating, you promise? My lips wobble

He nods, now do you know them or was there any distinct feature? He nods eyes solely focused on me hoping I would say something
