Prologue
"Anna listen will you!?" Hans snapped, his green eyes glowing I shifted on the the sofa, we were in Hans' private study in the church, this was the Third Street Saints hideout. Honestly I thought planning drug deals, gang wars and the other crazy shit we do was a little disrespectful to do in a place of worship, but hey God doesn't seem too pissed at us, if anything he's giving us a massive thumbs up. The Saints have been doing great recently especially since we moved our main hideout to this new church.
I turned my attention to my older brother "Yeah yeah I'm listening!" I rolled my eyes, for years now Hans and I have been part of the Saints, I never gave a shit about it, I hate it killing people but Hans loves it, liked the power he has over people now.
"You better be listening Anna, you can't fuck this up" he rubbed his jaw.
"I'm listening!" I groaned.
"What's the plan then?" he raised a brow at me.
I bit my lip, I had been listening but just forgotten everything he said, crap "Umm… I go to Arendelle Uni and umm?"
"For fuck sake Anna!" He growled, I couldn't help but flinch, I hated what this gang had done to him, he was such a sweet boy before. However now he's turned into an overly angry power hungry man.
"Please repeat, sorry." I bowed my head, he sighed calming down slightly.
"You go to Arendelle Uni, get friendly with the "Duke" And get yourself invited to one of his exclusive parties. Under any circumstances do not let him catch on that you are with the Saints, when given the address, come straight to me and we'll fucking get our money back and a little extra." he smiled, his green eyes returned to their natural shade of green: olive green.
"OK, why do I need to pose as a Uni student though?" I played with my braids.
"He's a professor there, he teaches literature, which by the way you'll be taking."
I made a face "I prefer history!" Hans laughed, his face glowing, that's it, that's my big brother, smiling Hans with a gentle look to his face.
His face suddenly grew grim, he put a hand on my shoulder "Anna please you have to be careful with this job ok?If the duke realises you're working for the Saints, he'll kill you."
"I know…" I looked away from him, I didn't want to do this job, I couldn't do this job, I was used to doing some armed robberies at gas stations or being the driver for getaways when the police caught on to us. But this? I couldn't act, I'm clumsy and forgetful, I know I'll mess this up but if I mess this up as Hans said I'll be killed.
"Go downstairs to the bar and ask one of the girls to teach you how to hide your tattoo with some make-up." He gestured to my lower back, when Hans and I joined the Saints we got a tattoo to show what crew we were part of, a horrible reminder of the worst choice Hans had ever made for us.
"Alright, I think Gerda knows how to hide tats" I forced a smile getting up.
"Before you leave Anna." Hans stood up from this big leather chair "I love you, you'll be fine!" He pulled me in for a hug my heart began to race, Hans never tells me he loves me and he never reassures me of any of my jobs. I wasn't going to be fine, I was going to be killed and for what? Money, drugs and the respect of idiots, I felt sick.
I eventually pull away from the hug and fake a smile "They oddly suit you" I pointed to his auburn sideburns that's he has been growing recently.
He stroked the left one "Really? and you thought they were stupid." He winked I began to leave his study before he spoke to me again "Learn what Gerda teaches you quick, you start uni next week." and with that he closed the door in my face before I could respond.
One week…
