RPOV
When the door shut I ran over to the kitchen and grabbed a jeans. I quickly put it on and hurried to the bathroom. My face was flushed, but I couldn't do anything about that right now. I redid my lipstick and eyeliner and went back to the living room. I waited for them to come in, there were eight of them.
'Renesmee' I heard Casper call out.
'In here' I answered. I hoped that Jacob took off like I told him too. He better not be lurking in the woods, if they sniffed him out they would kill him without any hesitation.
'It stinks in here' Another said while he cringed his nose.
'I know, not the best AirBnB. Can't really help it, I just arrived' I said coldly. Their red eyes were following my every move.
'Do you have it?' I asked while I made sure there was no emotion on my face. I wanted to get over this soon, I never really did these things without my mother because she always had the upper hand in everything. My human part made me fragile in their eyes. So I wanted to get over it as soon as possible so I could get out of this bloody one horse town.
'We do, but he wants to see you in person' Casper said while he chuckled. I shot him an irritated look.
'I don't have time for your silly games. Do you have it or not' I hissed.
'He wants to see you in person' another repeated. I sighted irritated and rolled my eyes knowing I didn't have a choice.
'Fine, get my luggage from the kitchen then' I ordered them around. I searched for the apartment key in my pocket and placed it on the table. So long for a long night of sleep. They grabbed my things and we walked outside into the biting cold. Casper gestured to his motorcycle and I waited for him to start it before climbing on. With roaring engines we took off, I was forced to wrap my arms around his waist otherwise I would fall off. His cold skin pressed against mine as we rode in silence. My eyes wandered off to the woods hoping Jacob wouldn't cause a fuss. He better be smart enough not to interfere.
We drove for around 35 minutes before arriving at our destination. I stepped of the bike and walked inside, not paying attention to the group which brought me here. Irritated I threw open the door and walked to the office. Without knocking I threw open the door once again and walked in. He was waiting for me. His feet were up his desk, his arms folded and his bloody red eyes amused.
There were pills on his desk in all sorts of colors and shapes. The latest batch I presumed.
'Aaron' I greeted. 'Renesmee' he nodded back. The others came in and threw my stuff in the corner. I turned and gave them a hateful glance. 'Leave us' I hissed. But they didn't move an inch until Aaron nodded and told them to leave as well. It didn't mattered anyway because with their vampire hearing they would pick up our conversation anyway.
'Why am I here?' My voice was irritated, I couldn't conceal it.
'You know why you are here' He answered and took his feet of the desk.
'Was the entourage really necessary Aaron?'
He didn't answered but stared at me amused. He leaned over and grabbed a brown envelope from his desk. He threw it on the table. When I didn't took it he raised his eyebrows. I stared at him irritated and really slowly took it and opened it. I shook out the contents: 6 new ID's varying from normal documents, birth certificates and driver licenses. I checked out the names on them.
'Maria Underwood? Really do I look like a Maria? I'm not really the holy type' His bloody red eyes were still staring at me with amusement. But that was the only response I got from him.
'And the rest?' I asked while I put the documents in my bag.
'Ahh yes the cash' He laid down a paper bag. '75K all in cash' He smiled.
'Excuse me? 75K? That's not enough, that's just half of the profit'
He ignored me and stared at out the window.
'A little birdy came to me Renesmee. Rumor has it that your mother is out of the picture'
A heavy silence fell in the room. I didn't knew how to respond to this. I knew I couldn't trust these people, they were drug dealers after all. But it had been a stable source of income for my mother and me. Even vampires needed money now and then. It didn't mattered if you were human, vampire or werewolf this world was all about money. I was searching for words, my mother would go completely mental if Aaron did this to her. But my mother was a full vampire and they were intimidated by her. Me however..
'Who told you that, because I'm afraid you are incorrect' I was bluffing. But I needed to get out of here alive, when I find my mother she could handle with this herself.
'My mother is preoccupied at the moment'
'Is that so?' He frowned. 'Too bad I don't believe you Renesmee' he said.
'You will find out soon enough Aaron' I hissed and stood up. I grabbed the bag of cash and turned around. But before I could open the door he grabbed me, flung me to the wall and pinned me against it. With one hand he was holding my wrists above my head and with the other he was putting pressure in my neck making it hard to breath. His bloody eyes drilled in mine and I struggled to get free.
'What do you think you are doing?' I whispered. I needed to bluff myself out of this but he didn't seemed impressed by anything I said. He released me for a second and slapped me in the face. I could feel blood well up in my mouth. As I mouthed a shitload of curses I felt that my lip was busted as well.
'You are not going anywhere until I say you are. Sit!' He released his grip and walked back to the desk. I gasped for air as he released me and a little unsteady I walked back to the chair and sat down obediently.
'Your reign is over Renesmee. Without your mother you are nothing, no one'
I swallowed, trying to ignore the lump in my throat. He was right, I was no match for them. I couldn't never force them to respect me. They outnumbered me in everything. They were stronger, faster, older. I couldn't win this. I just needed to get out of here alive.
'What is you want?' My voice was a little raspy and I was feeling lightheaded. I tried my best not to show, not wanting to show any more weakness.
'You can't lead us Renesmee. You are weak.' He cleared his throat 'Besides the cops are on your tail'
'Excuse me?' I said 'The cops?'
'The fake name Vicky Benson is being tracked as we speak. I was wondering why you needed new ID's so fast. But it seemed you're very wanted by the Sheriff's Department. They even put an BOLO out for you.'
I grunted. I guess I could thank Charlie and Jacob for that. The last thing I could use right now was a fucking 'Be On the LookOut'. Darn it! I closed my eyes for a second cursing at my own ignorance. I should've let them deal with Jacob, then this problem would be already solved.
'Why am I still here' I asked and narrowed my eyes. I was still alive for a reason.
'Of course, you want to Shadow File' I grinned regaining some of my dominance.
'If you want to take over you need the shadow file. You need the traffic routes and suppliers otherwise you will be cut off soon'
By the look on his face I could tell I was right. This gave me some negotiating power.
'Let's put it this way Renesmee. I will get that file otherwise I will kill you right on the spot' Aaron whispered. I calculated my chances, this Shadow File was the only thing standing between me and my certain death. My mother was no were to be found and I had no idea what to do now. This file he was talking about was an online file where my mother kept all data of the traffic routes, suppliers and sellers. All data with phone numbers, which cops were dirty in which states and where the drug labs where. I knew where this file was, and I was choosing my own life over this business that my mother build up.
'I will get you that fucking file' I said making my choice. I stood up. 'But I'm keeping this as a parting gift' I said and grabbed the paper bag. I gathered my things and looked up one more time.
'I will e-mail you the file tonight, when I am sure your men didn't follow me'
He nodded and his eyes drilled in mine 'Oh and Renesmee, be careful with those cops. If I feel that you are a loose end I will make sure you will be six feet under by the end of the week.'
I grimaced as I opened the door and hurried out the door as quickly as my feet could carry me. I walked to the city center and got in a cab.
I rented a room in an old motel with my new ID. I would have preferred not to, because the one who supplied me with these just assaulted me. But I didn't really have a choice with an BOLO out. I ditched the old ID's and papers and sat down on the bed.
This was a real mess. They put a fucking BOLO on me, how dared they. I ran my hand through my hair and took a deep breath. When I pulled my hand back there were big chucks of hair on them. I stared at my hand petrified, what the hell was this. My hair was falling out now? I rushed to the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror. I took a brush and slowly combed my hair with it. The amount of hairs that were in the brush by the time I was finished scared me. It was not that I started to get bald spots of something, but I never lost a single hair in my life. And now they were falling out like I was a dog who was losing his winter coat. It was getting worse.
Hey guys I would love to know what you think. I would love me some reviewers :)
