Living in the middle of nowhere was a bit hard a sixteen year old girl like you. You never understood why your father moved the family in the first place. Your mother always said she wanted a big house. But..big houses often came with big neighbors too.

You wanted to make friends, go to a public school but nope. You were homeschooled and always had been. The dreams of going to prom or homecoming striped away from you when you moved into this huge villa because your father’s business went booming.

But, atleast you had someome. You had a friend, the boy next door. James was his name. You two quickly became friends even though your parents always told you to stay away from him because him and his family were bad news. But when you told James that..his father came the next day to have a private talk with your father. After that, not a single bad word was mentioned from your parents to James or his bad news of a family.

You knew why they said his family and him were bad news. Because the Barnes family were a huge mafia family. A mafia family that had history or crime, and blood on their hands from being in the underworld. That’s why they lived in the middle of nowhere as well.
