Eddie

That voice. That voice. I grabbed my Desert Eagle and quickly left my office slamming the door behind me. I ran to the back part of the house and got onto a terrace. I looked down and saw the people trying to break in. The lead one took of his mask.

"Eddie," He said.

"Duncan," I snarled. Yes Duncan. The only person I couldn't catch within not seeing the girls for so long. The one who started the most shit. I thought he had dissapeared but no apparently not. He poisoned and drugged up Ellie so now I have no idea what his plan is.

"Why don't you come down here and fight?" Duncan asked. I quickly fired a round of shots at his henchmen making them all.

"I think I'm good up here," I said. He gave a breathy laugh.

"Eddie, let's just talk," He offered.

"I'm not an idiot I know your game," I said.

"I never said you were, I just assumed you didn't want your little girl to see you murder someone in a cold blood," He said. He gestured his head up and I saw. Ellie pressed against the window with a man holding her down. Another was doing the same to Patricia. How did they get in?

"Tell your men if they don't let them go I will rip their hearts out and shove them down their throats," I said calmly.

"You aren't in much of a position yourself are you?" He asked. I felt hands grip my shoulders. My body relaxed and felt them start to drag me. I swiftly kicked the knee bringing him to his knees and pointed my gun at his face.

"Out now, or I won't have mercy," I said. The henchman nodded swiftly before going away. I turned back to Duncan. "Get away now,"

"No," He said. I steadied my breathing. I'm not going to kill someone where my girls can see. I'm just not. Nope not going to do it. "Afraid ill take your pretty little girlfriend?" Yea fuck that not killing shit. I quickly shot at him, hitting his chest but nothing happened.

"Bullet proof," I grumbled. He nodded smugly.

"You want me gone?" He asked. I nodded. "Go inside and get me $20, 000,"

"The only way to get rid of you is to pay you off?" I asked.

"Until I get bored of it," He said. I grumbled under my breath and looked around the terrace. I hide money everywhere around the house. I opened up a chest and counted out the amount he wanted. I bound it together with a rubber band then threw it. Duncan caught it and counted through. He looked satisfied so he looked up at the men who hand the girls and nodded. The men let the girls go and went to meet Duncan.

"Next time it won't be this easy," I snarled.

"I bet it won't," Duncan said in a mocking voice. I looked up at the window and saw Ellie still watching. Duncan and his friends that were still alive left. I ran my hands through my hair. I think I need to have a talk with the girls and the security team.

Ellie

Mom looked stressed as she said Dad head inside. That was so weird. Is this going to happen again?

"Come on, Ellie, let's go talk to your father," Mom said. I nodded and followed her into Dad's office. He looked angry.

"Hello," Dad said calmly. It wasn't a relaxed calm it was like an angry or forced calm.

"Eddie, you okay?" Mom asked.

"Perfect, I'm cool. Like a Popsicle," He said.

"Isn't it cucumber?" I asked.

"Let your father stay calm sweetie," Mom murmered to me. Dad smiled.

"Are you crazy?" I asked.

"No, but I promised your mother I wouldn't be angry in front of yo USO this is Teh alternative," He said.

"A creepy clown?" I asked. He nodded.

"Anything you want to tell us?" Mom asked changing the subject.

"I hired security guards for you and they should be here soon," He said.

"How many?" I asked.

"One per person," He said. "They are the best and will be with you anytime your not in the house,"

"How am I supposed to make friends at school if some dude is following me?" I asked.

"You're a great girl and if people can't get past the fact that he follows you then they aren't real friends," He said.

"Fine," I grumbled. He doesn't get it. I suck at making friends anyway. Some people may call me "aggressive" or "rude". Ugh that new school is going to suck.

"I just want you and your mother safe," He promised.

"We were safe when I didn't know you existed," I said snarkily. His eyes narrowed.

"Ellie," Mom scolded.

"I know I spoil you and treat you well but I'm your father and I will not take your backtalk. You will have respect for me. I'm not your friend I'm your parent. If my kindness was mistaken as being a friend then I will take it all back," Dad said. I can see why he's a Mob boss. I never saw him as scary but now I do.

"I'm sorry," I said hanging my head.

"Eddie, that was too much," Mom said.

"She can't think because she's my daughter that she can do whatever she wants, she needs structure and there will be some times when I don't like what she'll do so I'll call her out on it," He said.

"It's fine. I don't want to be a brat," I mumbled. Dad's face softened and sighed.

"I'm sorry princess, I'm just stressed," He said. I nodded. Is it really that easy to get out of things with him? I'll have to remember that when I get sent to the principals office.

"It's okay, Dad. It doesn't hurt, I'm tough remember?" I said. He smiled and held up his hand for a high-five. I met his hand and we smiled.

"Tough," He agreed. I don't think I have a choice to be not tough in this family.

Tada that was the cliffhanger from last chapter is completed! Hehe so now it's time to get into more drama. If you don't remember Duncan then go read my original Mafia. He worked for an enemy Mafia and he drugged Ellie and poisoned her and broke into their house like twice. He's obviously an OC but if the show returned for a new season and there was a Duncan I would burst out laughing. My accidental cliffhanger worked, I'm glad it did the job.

Peddie4ever112: Wish granted.

DesiredHOA01: Double whoa and yes Ellie is always targeted.

Hoarocker101: Thank you and wow it's great to be compared to him I love him. Maybe someday I will write a few books :)

Cuscus: Thank you and I'll update.

SugarCubes101: Cliffhangers ruleeee. No they aren't but love makes people do things that may not be that smart. I love protective Eddie. Idk why too maybe it makes him look stronger and cute.

Peddie213: It's Duncan! Now you know.

Sunlightego: Haha I'm glad. It is Duncan. My OC.
