The Mafia's Daughter

Chapter 12

I gasped as I woke up from that vivid memory. Why now? I looked over to my nightstand to see a bunch of texts blowing up my phone.

I frowned as I grabbed my phone, it was so early, who's texting me now?

You can't hide forever

We already know where you are

We're coming to tie up loose ends

 I dropped my phone, in shock. How could the know, how'd they figure it out? They aren't even smart.

I grabbed two duffel bags and started throwing clothes, shoes, jewelry, and other necessities in one bag. In the other bag I put in important files, my computer, and some money. I didn't bother putting food in because I could just get those from the bar.

I put on some gloves and got myself a rag before cleaning my room of fingerprints. I put my sheets in the dryer, I wasn't going to let them find me. Not again. I grabbed my phone and smashed it I broke it until everything was shattered. I made sure the memory card was broken, then I left my room.

I used the rag to close the door making sure I left no prints. I ran down the stairs not trusting the elevator, and went to the landlord's room.

Knock

knock

Hopefully, he's home.

"What", He groaned in annoyance, then he saw it was me.

"Oh um yes how can I help you", He asked.

"I'm going on a trip, and I don't know when I'll be back", I told him. "Don't try to contact me". With that, I left the building and ran to the bar.

"TEAGAN", I yelled. I smiled lightly when I saw his head poke out from behind the counter. He waved at me.

I ran over to him and placed my bags on the chair.

"You running away or something", He joked. You don't even know the half of it.

"Yes I am and I need a place to stay, can I go to yours", I begged.

"What, I mean uh why are you running away again", He said. I rolled my eyes and groaned.

"Because the same people that I've been running from know where I am", I told him. His eyes widened.

"Are you sure you like left them in the dust", he said.

"I know I'm confused too, how do they know where I am, I should've changed my name", I said.

"Calm down, for a kid you know things only adults should, but if you need to you can stay at my place for however long you'd like. Of course I won't be there as often as I should but you know.", I sighed in relief thank GOD.

"I couldn't help but overhear your situation, but if you need a place to stay you could stay at our place, Victoria would be very happy. And it might be a better idea to stay with someone who they wouldn't suspect has you", A voice spoke. I turned around only to face Atlas.

Are you kidding?

"Why should I go with you Teagan already said he would", I said narrowing my eyes in suspicion. 

"I mean from what I heard Teagan know about them, so wouldn't they check his house for you, but if you came with us nobody would know where you are", He told me. 

I hate to admit it but he's right. I can't put Teagan in danger for my problems, I look over at Teagan who was trying to pretend he wasn't listening to our conversation.

"Teagan", I called. his head snapped over to mine.

"As much as I hate to do this but I can't stay at your house, you'd be in too much danger", I told him. He nodded in understanding before giving me a big hug. I wasn't fond of hugs but he's one of the exceptions.

"Stay safe", he told me. I nodded and grabbed my bags and looked up at Atlas who started walking towards the door. Hopefully I don't die.

I stepped out of the bar nervously, what if I get noticed? 

"Are you coming", atlas asked looking over to me. I nodded before running to his car, I allowed him to put my bags in the trunk. Laying back on his black leather seats I thought about everything that has been going on.

I'm probably going to die.
