Chapter 25

P O V: Eva Dawson

"Your beautiful Amalia," those words mean everything to me even though it's taken me a month to get use to my new identity. I'm living in Mykonos Greece now I barely survived the attack by those animals the only reason I did was because one of those men. Agisilaos jumped in to save me he shot Emilio somehow he got Diego and I out of there, he put us on a plane and got us jobs at his friend's club here in Greece.

The club is run by a former teen celebrity named Maelle Jennings everyone calls her Maj for short. She's a tough boss for sure but if you perform well she's fair. I've kept out of her eyesight because I do my job I stay out of the drama that most of the other ambassadors seem to bring.

Already I have become a supervisor Diego who's going by the name Jermaine is a boat tour guide. This island is beautiful we've been exploring it when we have days off. I'm proud of the man he's becoming strong he works out all the time his body is amazing, he's not a little kid anymore we celebrated his 16th birthday with a beach party. He's smart he's gotten himself clean and he's studying for his GED.

Maj is creating a show all about her rise from fame queen to the paparazzi fall party girl to come back queen. She brought in Ambassadors from all over the world to help host her club which is the go to spot for nightlife on this island.

Right now it is packed with party goers having the time of their lives, the music is blasting spun by the four D.J's one of them being Diego. My job is to be one of the model markets. I love it right now I am dancing with several of the men, who all want to spend their money on me, I never sleep with them but I let them think I will.

As long as they are buying dancing and turning up I know I am doing it well. I work hard after the club closes I am scrubbing floors washing walls, cleaning bathrooms, I'm not too good for anything.

I've stayed out of the shows radar requesting not to be in it, I try to put my past behind me, I don't think about my parents or my family back home it's too painful. Yet I am reminded I am not normal like everyone else, I am a fugitive, if I get caught I go down hard.

I've become close to Maj more than anyone else here she's just so real so sweet, we've gone shopping together, we had sleepovers, yet we separate business verse pleasure, she's harder on me here than anyone else. It's cool though because it pushes me to work harder grind harder.

Clients will sell me all kinds of bullshit to get me to sleep with them like this dude putting his hands all over my body as we dance his words mean a lot even though they are total bullshit.

It means I've gotten to where I need to be I like where I am now my body is in the best shape ever, my mind is healthy, my hair is grown I dyed it pink, blue.

Hours pass my body is dragging my mind is tired but I keep going till we close for the night or morning. We're all tired most of the VIP Hostess are half drunk and arguing, I move away from them.

"Listen everyone!" Maj calls order to her staff raising her glass of water "Amazing night thank you all of you, however I need you to tune all this bitching down, I need you to stop competing with each other, this isn't about you or who can out beat the other, if you are here for your own intentions and not to represent me and my brand get the fuck out now, I am here to build a company, I need team players. I have had enough of people using me, I need realness, I do not need people who are using me, camera's are flipped now people. I am watching you the way everyone has watched me, fuck up your out, work hard I will give you the keys to paradise to make your own success."

She turns as the doors open "Sorry we're closed," I can't see who it is or hear what they say but she gets down from the table and heads over to the guests. Minutes later I am thrown against the bar. My eyes lock with the person who has flipped me through the glass mirror covering the drinks behind the bar. My eyes connect with Erin Lindsay "Eva Dawson you are under arrest for aggravated assault of a minor child, resisting arrest, murder with special circumstances, related to the death of Detective Hailey Upton anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law do you understand these rights as read to you?"

Hailey's dead? Oh god was she the one shot? Tyler poor Tyler my eyes connect with Maj's as I am pulled up her mouth hangs open as she clears the room, I see Diego in cuffs with Kim holding him, her eyes were colder than Erin's.

I never want to see the look of disappointment in Maj's eyes as I do now. I knew in that instant I had blown it on so many levels. I want to die. My life is over anyway so why should it matter?
