Madam Mafia

Chapter 1

Hi my name is Reed and this is the long and fucked up story that I call my existence. It all started after being fired from my job.

■first person■

I woke up late yet again and I rushed to get dressed and ready for work. I brushed my teeth on the way out the door and I run to my car. I jump into the car and I speed down the highway to make it to Starbucks just in time for my best friend Emma to be arriving.

" Late aswell?" She asked and I nodded.

" You know it." I say with a chuckle. We walk in and I put on my apron and I start to wipe down the counters and when the clock stuck 6 i was ready for the morning rush. Customer after customer came buying coffee until one woman came up. Her name was Joan and she asked for a s'mores frappuccino with no whipped cream. I handed her the drink and she goes off screaming in my face, dampening it with spit.

" Okay bitch first of all no." I say wiping my face.

" You're fucking disgusting and rude and here is your fucking whip cream." I say before pouring the drink on her head and applying a nice peak of whipped cream. I give her a smile and 10 minutes later I'm fired from Starbuck. I get in my car and I lay my head on the steering wheel. Rent is due and I'm short again. I decide to drive home and then go for a run. I get home and get changed before grabbing my airpods and phone and walking out the door. I turn on my playlist and I start running through the neighborhood. I get lost in my thoughts as I run around the city, inbetween buildings and around trees. I'm enjoying my life crumbling when I hear a bunch of loud pops. I take out an airpod and I listen to a string of what I realize are gunshots. I run down an alley when I see a mangled body with blood oozing from everywhere imaginable. I take a step back and I notice 2 girls in front of me. I look behind me I notice no one is there. But judging my their bloodstained clothes and the body next to me I decide to stay put.

" Fuck." I hear a girl say before a towel is held across my face and I eventually pass out. I wake up gagged and with my hands and legs tired. I try to move but to no avail the ropes are extremely tight and extremely strong. I am not awake for.long when another towel is placed over my mouth and nose causing me to pass.out yet again. This time when I wake up I'm in a small cell.with my foot chained to the wall. I'm in my normal clothes but my phone and airpods are missing. I hear footsteps coming closer and closer until they stop. I look up and 2 men are standing at the bars. They open the door and unchain my foot but they quickly grab me and put me in shackles. They drag me down the hall until we get to a huge oak door. One man opens the door and all to be heard is yelling.

" ONE FUCKING JOB AND YOU SCREWED IT UP!" The woman screamed at everyone in the room.

" SO SIMPLE. KILL THE PEOPLE WHO OWE AND LEAVE!" She continues.

" I DONT RECALL GIVING INSTRUCTIONS TO KIDNAP AN INNOCENT!" She screams one more time before noticing us in the room. She dismisses everyone from the room leaving her and I. She looks me up and down her eyes lingering on my face. I choose to keep my eyes glued to the floor. I hear her mumble something and then her eyes snap back to me.

" Well, Well, Well what do we have here?" She asked as she walked closer.

" Your name?" She asked stopping in front of me

" reed jacobson." I whisper and she nods.

" Well Reed there are only about 3 options here." She says and I look up.

" Well for one I can kill you right now, second you could work for me, or 3 you become mine." She says sounding cheery.

" so but- So you're gonna either kill me, wait till I get killed, or own me?" I ask tilting my head.

" Yes exactly." She says with a sweet smile. I think for a moment I am a little suicidal but I want to die on my own terms. I am very clumsy and so having a gun and running from people isnt the best bet. I dont know what her owning me entails but it's the only one I dont have a high chance of dying.

" um the last one I guess." I whisper and she claps delightedly

" I'm glad you made the right choice." She said with a grin.

" Its getting late, I'll have someone bring you to your room and you'll have clothes tomorrow." She says before texting someone and before I can think someone is knocking at the door. She let's them in and I'm being dragged through the halls and then pushed into a room. The man takes my shackles off and leaves the room. I wait till the footsteps disappear to rush to the door but just my luck the door is locked. I start to panic. I just gave my freedom to some woman I've never met but she is stunning at least. She is hella tall making me feel tiny. After complaining about the woman I realize there is no way to escape that doesnt involve me getting murdered. The only window in the bedroom is locked and has an alarm. I plop down on the bed as the fatigue finally sets in. I close my eyes and I hope this nightmare will all be over when I wake up.
