Ariel's POV:
" He will kill you for what you have done!" The man that used to be my friend laughed coldly... Then he smirked evilly... He cocked the gun and pointed it towards my head... " I guess we'll just have to find out!"
You know, you'd think when your at deaths gate, you would been regretting every stupid bad mistake in your life, but that wasn't going through my mind... Memories of the good times were going through my mind... Memories of meeting the love of my life, meeting my new family, getting a new start to my life... Memories of what I used to be to who I am today... If you had told me of who I was today, 1 year ago I would laugh in your face!
I closed my eyes... And the sound of the gun going off, everything went black!!!
Let's start from the beginning... 1 Year ago!
" Dad, I don't want to go to that stupid ball!" " Well, you have to, you get no choice, now change!" I rolled my eyes and slammed the door in my father's face. You'd think being rich was fun because of all the money and shit like that! Well your wrong, life in boring, and being rich comes with responsibilities/duties and rules that you have to abide by...
I rolled my eyes thinking of the ball again. I walked into my closet. I pulled out my black mermaid dress... I sat it on my bed, then I walked to my bathroom. I took a shower... After that I got out and put the dress on... I brushed through my chocolate brown hair, the I straightened my hair. I put on my black high heel's and did my makeup...
After I was done I walked down stairs and saw my father waiting on me. " You look beautiful sweetheart!" I nodded. " Thank you dad." We walked out to the car... The ride was quite and long. My feet were killing me. I hate high heel's... I don't see why girls wear these all day everyday. I mean, they're annoying.
When we got to the ball, I sighed before getting out... Time to face the crowd... Yay! I stepped out of the car and was almost blinded by the flashing lights. I swear you'd think I would have gotten used to this by now. I go to a ball every month it feels like. I rolled my eyes and started to wave at the Paparazzi. When we got into the building, I saw everyone dancing, talking, and drinking. I hope my father doesn't get drunk tonight.
I walked down the stairs. Everyone turned to me. The female gave me deathful glares and the men's eyes were full of lust/hunger... Listen here kids, guy are creep's, some are not but most are. Don't let them get to you. Us girl's are bad bitches!
I walked over the drink table and grabbed a beer. My father walked over to me and snatched my beer. " You are not 21 yet!" I rolled my eyes and grabbed some punch. I swear if we were home, he wouldn't care! I rolled my eyes again. I turned around and watched everyone.
I saw many people here that I have seen before, but there was one group I haven't seen before. They weren't talking to many people, but I could scents they were trouble, and trouble is my middle name! I walked closer to the group. There was an older female and male. They looked to be around their mid-sixties. Then there was a girl that looked to be around my age. She had light blonde white hair like the older woman.
Then my eyes landed on the male. He had black hair, a chiseled jaw-line, and tattoos everywhere. I could scents his power. I could tell by the way he was standing he was confined. He started to look around until his eyes landed on me. He had hazel brown eyes. He smirked and looked to the guy standing next to him.
I rolled my eyes and walked back over to the drink table. My father walked over to me and grabbed my arm. He pulled me over to meet his friends... You'll never guess who it was.... The people I was just watching! Sometimes my father has the best timing I swear..
" Mr. and Mrs. Garcia, this is my daughter Ariel Lopez!" " Pleasure to meet you sweet heart!" I nodded," Likewise." I smiled at them. I shook all of their hands. " So, tell us about yourself Ariel!" " I graduated high school when I was 16 and finished college when I was 18. I work with my father..." " So, how old are you now?" " I'm almost 20..." She smiled again. " You must be a very smart girl!" I smiled again and nodded. " Yes, my I.Q. level is 150. I take after my mother..." She nods. " Well, it was nice meeting you Ariel. I hope you have a great rest of your day!" I smile again and nod. " You too Mrs. Garcia. It was nice meeting you and your family!"
They walk away! My father turns me around and looks me dead in the eye. " We don't speak of your mother!" " She was your wife, and you don't even care!" I said in a low tone. " I will speak of who ever I want, I have the power to take down your business with a press of a button... I wonder how everyone will feel knowing that the great Everett Lopez has been human trafficking!" He rolls his eyes... " No one will believe you!" I roll my eyes and get my arm out of his grip. " That's what you think!" I turned and walked away.
I walked outside and to our limo. " James take me home, my father will be going home with another female again!" I rolled my eyes and turned to see my dad sucking on a girls face. He doesn't care about my mother, and never will. I don't even know how she was killed! But I will find out...
