Taking A Bullet

Chapter 14

Chapter 14:

Lilly's P.O.V

Huh? Where am I? I opened my eyes slowly and tried to take in my surroundings. Huh? This is my room. I'm at home!? Wait of course I would be at home. Those were my parent's body guards after all right?

I was too scared to get out of bed. What are my parents going to say to me? How much trouble am I in? Oh god, I don't even want to know.

Someone knocked on the door and I quickly pretended I was still asleep. I heard about three people's footsteps. I wonder who they are?

"She's still asleep..." My mother sobbed. Wait why was she crying?

"Don't worry darling, she's okay now. That Kingston gang are going to pay for kidnapping her." My father tried to comfort my mother, but I could hear the anger in his voice. Kingston gang? What gang? Didn't they know I ran away from home?

"Don't worry sir, I'll have the boys on them straight away." That voice belonged to Harry, of course. What was going on here!? What are they talking about!? Maybe I should talk to them and sort this out. They a obviously confused.

"Who was the leader of that gang again?" My father asked, I presume to be Harry.

"His name is Damon sir, Damon King."

What? Damon was the leader of a gang? What the hell!? I'm so confused! Since when has he been the leader of a gang!? More importantly, why did my parents think he would kidnap me!? I mean what use would there be for him to kidnap me!?

"I'm just happy that they didn't harm her..." My mother continued to sob.

"Don't worry miss, the heir to the Scarlet gang is fine and in perfect health." Harry said trying to reassure my mother. WHAT THE HELL!? Are they talking about me!? What gang!? I haven't heard anything about this!

I was getting so angry now that I was beginning to shake.

"She must be cold, Harry can you please put a blanket on her." My father ordered, and I felt a blanket being sprawled across me. Arms came around my waist to tuck me in, which made me feel repulsed. Yuck, I don't want Harry's arms around me, it'll make me vomit.

"We should let her sleep, she must be tired." Harry said from beside me and kissed me forehead. I tried not to cringe underneath him. My mother and father kissed me as well, then they all made their way out. Once the door was shut I opened my eyes and rolled over to stare at the ceiling.

What the hell is going on here? I need someone to explain everything to me, but who? I just don't know anymore. I don't know what's going on with anything!

My phone started vibrating in my bag that was on my bedside table. I got up and checked the caller I.D.

Calling: Jarrad

Maybe he knows what's going on. I picked up the phone, but before I could say anything Damon's voice came over the line.

"Are you okay!?" He kind of whispered and yelled. Now I am completely confused.

"Erm... Yes? Why are you whispering?" I asked trying not to sound too confused.

"I'm outside your house. We were about to come in and break you out, but I thought it would be best to call first. You know just in case you had your phone and you were fine." He sounded worried and relieved at the same time. Why does he care so much? Wait more important is the issue at hand here!

"What is this I hear about you being in a gang? And the leader no doubt?" My voice came out angrier then I intended and the line went silent for a while.
