Maya's POV:

      Being the daughter of a mafia leader is kinda cool. For starters I'm rich......well I'm not rich my dad is but he lets me "borrow" his money. I groan laying back on my bed. I'm not allowed to go to public school cause the whole "you could get killed blah blah blah" my dad has explained countless amount of times. I literally have no friends. I stay in my room all the time on my phone or doing online school. My father won't let me talk to anyone but his old man mafia friends. Why would I want to talk to wrinkly old drug dealers.
       Nothing fun happens around here. It's the same old same old sell drugs, don't get paid, kill people. Yes, I'm 18 I'm legally an adult but why would I want to leave here when my dad pays for everything. Okay fine....that's not the real reason he won't let me leave. Which I understand. Other gangs and mafias can hold me as a weakness against him. My father is a very powerful man. I've lived with him my whole life after my mother gave birth to me she handed me over to him. I don't know where she nor do I care.
        My only friend around here was my last bodyguard before he got shot, tragic I know. Well.... he didn't really count me as a friend, he never really talked to me he was just kinda there. I would annoy him and try to get him to watch movies with me or even sing karaoke. But he was boring and he was like a 40 year old man. My dad has been looking for a new bodyguard for about 2 weeks now.
       Being caught up in my thoughts I forgot Im suppose to be writing an essay right now for English. I'm a senior in high school, but online high school and it sucks. I check my clock beside my bed and it's already 6 pm. I decide to take a shower and watch a movie before bed.
       I walk into my bathroom and peel my clothes off before stepping into the hot water. Once I'm done I get out and brush my teeth and get dressed in some shorts and tee shirt. I decide to watch twilight cause Edward is bae.
        Half way through the movie, I start feeling sleepy. I lay down and almost fall asleep instantly.
      The next morning I go down stairs for breakfast after getting dressed. The chef's name is Brenda. She's the sweetest. She always helps me with school work. She cooked me some eggs, bacon, pancakes, and toast. She also cooks for all the men in the house, which is a lot by the way. Once I finish breakfast I thank Brenda and head back up to my jail cell aka my bedroom. It's the weekend so thankfully I don't have any school work to do. I really want to go out but I know my dad won't let me, especially without a bodyguard. I honestly can't wait till he finds me a new one. I want some freedom.
     I turn on my laptop to watch Netflix when my dad walks in my room.
"What are you doing here" I ask.
  " I need to discuss some things with you be my office in 1 hour so you better be there"
"where else am I gonna go the kitchen it ain't like I have various options dad" i say sarcastically.
"Just be in my office in one hour" he says sternly. I nod my head as he leaves my room.
     One hour later I'm on my way to my dads office. I walk in to find him setting beside his desk. I roll my eyes at his facial expression. He always tries to stay stern and scary, but it's never worked on me.
" So why do you want me here" I say in a obvious tone.
"As you know I've been looking for a new bodyguard since the last one past. I think I've found the perfect one and he is near your age."
"Is he hot?" I ask, raising my eyebrows smirking, my dad narrows his eyes at me.
"Don't start with that shit" he says "he is going to be strictly your bodyguard and nothing else Maya"
"Ooooo this is going to be fun, we can be friends and watch movies together and do karaoke. We can also go out together. Finally, I've been waiting for someone my age" I ramble.
My dad smirks and shakes his head. "Maya, I don't think you are going to be friends with him, he doesn't associate with anyone." I stare at him confused on what he means.
" I don't know what you mean but if he's boring send him back to where he came from."
"No I am not sending him back to where he came from" my father huffs.
"You know this could be settled if you let me move out and have my own life away from here." He rolls his eyes at me and shakes his head no.
"Maya as long as I live you will not be out of my sight."
"Fine whatever, when do I meet this mystery man?" I ask walking around the room touching everything. My dad hates when I do that and I love to rile him up.
"Tomorrow you will meet him at 8am sharp" he says watching me with an annoyed look on his face.
"I think you got me confused with someone else cause there ain't no way I'm getting up that early" I explain to him touching the books on his desk.
"Yes you are Maya, I will wake you up if I have to, so be prepared and dress nice please" he says watching me intently.
"Okay fine, but I'm leaving now byeeeeeee" I yell walking out the door. I reach my room and decide to finish watching twilight. I sigh and lean back on my bed. "Tomorrow is going to be a long day" I say to myself.
