Disclaimer: Not copyrighting the awesome that is Stephenie Meyer for creating these wonderful characters. This is my first shot at a full fledged story so I'm really nervous at what you all think about this story. So on with the story.
Chapter 1
Working in a library some would find it boring and the worst job in the world, but with me it's something that I wanted to do since I was able to read.
With it being near closing I had a few customers still here looking. I decided to get the books sorted and ready to be returned to their rightful places. I recognized some of the regulars leaving and asked them if anyone was left, they told me there was no one left. I walked them out and locked up for the night.
As I'm putting books away I hear this sounds and go check it out. Walking to the back of the library I see this shadowy figure and I'm about to scream but this hand covers my mouth. "One word and I will shoot you. You understand me?" Says an angry voice. Nodding my head yes. The mystery man blows a sigh of relief along with releasing me. I stay standing while he walks around to stand in front of me. As he stands I get a perfect look at the man. I notice his jaw has a chiseled shape to it, nose that's straight with a slight bump to it like it's been broken, he's built but with a leaner stature, hair the colour that of a penny with red and brown high lights in it as well, and lastly his eyes; don't get me started on his eyes that are shades of emeralds that you would notice without even looking.
"Why are you in the library with a gun at this hour?" I asked with my voice cracking slightly.
"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you." He growled.
"Try me mister." I growled back with my adrenaline running at the moment.
"Fine I'll tell you; I'm part of the Chicago Mafia." I stared at him life he was crazy.
After he had said that someone came barrelling through the doors leading from the front to the back.
"Edward are you alright? You didn't get shot?" Said a burly man as a blonde jogged up to the two of them. Looking at them and hearing that mystery man that when he held me a spark came jolting between us. It came to my attention that when burly man said mystery man's name was 'Edward', I thought I had heard that name before.
As they were busy making sure that Edward was alright I started to think of why the name was familiar . Minutes had past and gasping I realized that the Edward that held me was the son of the late Edward Sr. who was the most powerful man in Chicago, but thinking back to the research that I'd done on Edward Sr. and finding out he was a mafia leader or Don; along with that he had died a few years back and that hos son had taken over the "company" but I now know he was the new Don of the family.
After the realization that I came to I gasped which got Edward's attention as he came running over to me with his gun pointed to my stomach. "What did you just realize?" Edward asked with a hint of anger to his voice.
"I know who you really are." I stated with a whisper, hoping that he didn't hear m. With my fucking luck, he did. "I hope you can keep a really good secret Isabella, cause you won't be leaving my sight." I nodded my head once satisfying him and the other two.
"Do you have any attachment to working here?" The blonde said. Again I nodded my head with a no, knowing that I really do.
"Good cause you will be coming with us to make sure that you will keep quiet." Said Edward as he looked beyond pissed at the present moment.
What have I gotten myself into? Was the last thought that went through my head as everything went black.
Authors note: So what do you guys think? The chapters will get longer as the story progress, don't worry about the length of them.
