Chapter 1
Emilia sat on a semi cold metal table that seeped her body heat into it self, heating itself up to her temperature, she watched Dom, he looked.. Lost and troubled, the man that always looked composed and calm, with a hint of rage underneath, the man that was an Alpha all the way through, looked lost, empty for only a second and she wondered if she would be the only one to see it. She wanted to help him. But she didn't have a clue how to help him, how do you help someone go through what you are experiencing too, when you are as lost, he found out Letty may be alive. No, they found out she may be alive and Emilia didn't have a clue how to distinguish her emotions and stick with one.
"Thank god, Finally some equipment I can work with," Tej exclaimed in awe.
She looked away from Dom to where she picked up Tej voice coming from, seeing him look at all the computers to his exposal. A hint of a smile graced her lips at his obvious excitement. She picked up on Roman greeting Han as family does and Han greeting back, it made her nostalgic and have flashbacks to the time she meet her family and how she became part of the familia.
"This is way better than that trash in Rio." Tej said as Emilia got lost in her memories, she was thankful to seeing her familia, she missed her family, she wasn't a fan of being forced to stay away from them, and money didn't make the pain any less. If anything it made it worse.
It was the year 2003 in mid summer July, Los Angeles late in the evening. (year before Brian)
A girl in her 20's sat on the hood of a red Mustang 1967 in the midst of a street racing crowd. Emilia Liked coming to the races, even if she wasn't racing yet, because she wanted to race someone specific.
The girl's name is Emilia Ruby Dominic Skyler or Ruby. She is 21 years old soon to be 22 in only fourteen days, the July 31st. Emilia grew up driving and racing and is one of the few things she knows and how to fix cars.
Emilia an orphan who only has her car, A red 1967 Ford Mustang Shelby Gt350 with two white racer stripes from the hood to the trunk and 10.000$ to her name from her father after his death, which was 3 years, 11 months and 17 days ago. On her 18th Birthday. Her mother didn't deserve to be called a mother and Emilia barely talked to her, trying her best to get away with that, she might possible be dead for all she knew.
Emilia wore light blue washed jean shorts, a gray cropped tank that reached her hip bones, a cropped black sleeveless leather jacket that reached her waist, black fingerless gloves and black converse, she didn't much feel like dressing for others. Around her neck hung a Celtic necklace that used to belong to her grandmother on her father's side, she also wore a lip piercing on the left side lower lip. Eight tattoos were splattered on her body and every one of them meant something to her.
Her first tattoo which is located on her left hand, middle finger facing the thumb, said freedom and had a small bird at the end, she got that after spending 6 months in Juvenile correction center when she was 15 turning 16.
On her right collarbone were the words 'I refuse to sink' with an anchor on the front, she got that six months after the first one, it symbolizes how she wouldn't let anyone drag her down, even her mother.
On her right leg, on the right side of her thigh was a Harry potter tattoo of the Slytherin crest, which she got on her 17th Birthday, seven months after the second one. She always knew that would be her house, Slytherin's were able to be loyal even if they were cunning, they had potential to be kind even if they were ambitious.
The fourth tattoo is on her upper back just below where her neck starts, it is a fandom tattoo that said 'books are proof that humans can do magic', That tattoo she got on her 18th Birthday. Meant has a tribute to the books that helped her through everything that happened to her as a child and a teenager.
The fifth tattoo came one month after her 18th Birthday, it is located on her wrist, one word 'Familia'. It is a tribute to her dad.
The sixth tattoo came seven months after her 18th Birthday, it is on her right ring finger, facing the middle finger. It is just one word 'Love', another tribute to a person, this time to her Best friend. She ended her life two months before.
The seventh tattoo is on her right hip bone, one of the more painful ones. It is a two line quote. 'Never a victim, Always a fighter'. She got that one six months after her 19th Birthday after leaving her abusive boyfriend behind in New York.
The eighth and Last tattoo is on the back of her neck, it is a Celtic symbol for new Beginning. That one she got on her 20th Birthday when she settled in Los Angeles where she belonged.
Emilia looked around her as she fished her cigarette pack from her back pocket and lighter. She inhaled the first smoke with a satisfied sigh as she waited for Dominic Toretto, A 26-year-old street racer, owner of a garage and a little shop. His sister, Mia Toretto and a little gang he called his family.
Emilia didn't know them personally, but because of her dad, she was acquainted with their names. Her dad used to be Mr. Toretto's best friend since they were seven. Emilia remembered her dad telling her when she got out of Juvie, that if anything ever happened to him and she needed someone, to contact him. But she soon learned about what happened to Mr. Toretto and Dominic two-and-a-half years ago.
Emilia hoped this would be a good time to show up. Dom no longer in prison and she gave him 6 months to get his feet under him. She remembered well how hard it can be getting used to life after being locked away, even if she only stayed six months.
Emilia looked around her, she already meet Hector four months ago, he was impressed by her car, but bummed about her not racing. Meeting Edwin had been interesting, That boy was trouble. He had almost convinced her to race him. She smirked remembering her answer, 'oh baby I only race the big boys'.
Her mouth tended to get her in trouble. But at least she can back her words up with a fight. She spent years getting these lean muscles. Feminine curves but strong. Yeah she loved being powerful.
"Hey Ruby!" Emily looked up at hearing her nickname. She smiled as she slid of the hood of her Mustang.
"Hector!" Emilia called as she walked to Hector giving him a fist pump. "You heard yet if Toretto is racing tonight?" she said with a smirk in place.
"Yeah I just got a call from him, he's on the way with the crew," Hector looked her up and smiled at her "you looking good chica," Emilia snorted at him as she pushed her hip out to the right.
"Hector how many times to I have to tell you, ain't some easy fuck," She placed her hand on his shoulder. "And even if I would be, I wouldn't pick you," She smirked at his face, hearing the oohs from his gang.
"Hey, hey. No need to be so rude cariño," Emilia had known him for four months now.
"Oh trust me baby, I ain't being rude, if I were, you would be hiding in your car for the rest of the night," Emilia pursed her lips trying to stay in character but failed causing her to laugh. "It's good to see you Hector," Emilia said in a normal tone of voice as she gave him a half hug.
"You too Ruby. I can't wait to see you race tonight."
"Oh trust me i can't wait to see their faces when i beat Toretto," Emilia said with a smirk as Hector just laughed at her.
Emilia looked up at the sound of five cars heading their way. She looked up and examined them as they drove in a v formation. In the lead is a red 1993 Mazda RX-7 FD, Emily guessed that is Dominic Toretto's car. Behind him where two cars, on Emilia's left, a purplish pink 1997 Nissan 240SX, to the right a Yellow 1995 Nissan Skyline GT-R R33. Behind those two cars a white 1995 Volkswagen Jetta A3 (Typ 1H) on the left, and on the right a dark blue 1999 Nissan Maxima (A32).
She watched them drive into the middle of the crowd. It kinda felt like they had all been waiting for them. She looked at Hector and followed him to greet Dom.
She watched Letty getting territorial over Dom, who was getting attention from some girls he seemed to know. The words made Ruby laugh.
"I smell.." Letty sniffed the air "skanks." Letty looked at them both with murder in her eyes "Why don't you girls pack it up, before I leave tread marks on your faces," the girls disappeared, Ruby stood in the background laughing her ass off.
"Letty I was just talking," Dom said in his defense.
"Yeah whatever," Letty said as she walked past him, getting closer to Ruby.
"Damn girl, if that wasn't one of the hottest things i've seen," Ruby said with a smirk as she moved closer to Letty "wish you were this territorial on my ass," Ruby smiled with a win as she walked past heading to Hector and Dom, who she overheard talking about the race.
Letty eyed the new girl up, first with a hint of glare before her eyes turned darker from a hint of lust. Emilia had just added a little sway to her hips for Letty. "Damn," was heard from behind Ruby, making her smirk.
Ruby arrived just as the guys were talking about the stakes and who was in, it was Dom, Edwin and one of Hector's boy's. Emilia moved closer as she took out 2g's.
"I'm in," Emilia said as she handed Hector the money, who they had assigned the money keeper.
"Yeah? Show me your car and let's see if you are worth the challenge," Dom said with a half smile.
"Last time I checked I wasn't betting my car," Ruby said with a smirk as she eyed Dom up "and I thought it was the way you drive a car that matters, not the car. she's just a beautiful instrument," Ruby leaned closer to him. "I think I would be more of a challenge, if you knew nothing about me,"
Dom did his signature half smirk and eyed her up. "You got a point."
"So we gonna race or are we starting a sewing circle?" Ruby said with a cocky grin as she turned around walking to her car, hearing cat calls behind her as people figured out what car was hers.
