(The picture above is Kami, Libby, and Logan at Libby's mom Rachel and James wedding)

I sat on the bed for what seemed like hours. My head jerked up at the sound of pounding on my door. Slowly I stood up and made my way to the door grabbing the bat that lay in the closet beside the door. I looked out the peephole to see it was only Niall and Ashton. Opening the door I couldn't help but sigh in relief that no one was with them. Without me needing to tell them they came right inside taking their shoes off and sitting on the couch.


"Ash said you needed is to come over? What's up?" Niall was the first to speak.


"Yeah. Just make yourselves at home." I spoke with sarcasm laced in my tone.

They both chuckled before I continued "but yes. I, well, I don't know how to explain this so I'm going to have to start from the beginning.." I looked up at both of them to see them nodding for me to continue.


"Well, my dad was in the Australian mafia.. His name is Kane Williamson." I heard a gasp and paused to look at both of them. They had open mouths and wide eyes full of awe.


Niall was once again first to speak "you're Kane Williamson's daughter? Libby, Kane was one of the most feared and respected men in Australia. Chris and him. They kicked ass. His portrait is on the wall at headquarters. That's how amazing he was."


I couldn't help but scowl at the mention of Chris. I looked at Niall and began speaking again "well, I didn't know he was that involved. Nonetheless, my father came home one night. We were all having a good night when we saw headlights in the drive. My dad told my mom to hide then went and hid me in the closet downstairs. He shoved a black duffel bag in the closet with me before hiding himself. The man had been banging on the door and once he got in he threatened to look for my mother and I so of course my dad jumped out to make sure that didn't happen. The man shot my dad twice. I watched my father die in front of me as he begged for me to look away and yelled to my mother and I that he'd love us forever. He was killed by Chris Styles." I was clenching the armrests of the couch so tight my knuckles were white. Ashton and Niall just stared at me with wide eyes and opened mouths.


Niall started speaking first "Libby, I had no idea. We were all told Kane died in a shooting with one of the smaller western gangs.. I'm so sorry. I-"


I cut him off "we're not here to be sorry for me. It's the past. My dad is dead. We can't change that. We're here because I never looked in the duffel bag. Until today. Now, if you have any intention in telling anyone what your about to look at then leave. The contents of this bag will be told to no one unless I tell them. Understood?" After I said this they both nodded to me. I stood up going to my bedroom and grabbing the extremely heavy bag. I slowly sat it on the table smacking both of their hands away. I pulled out the first stack of papers then reached in to grab the stuff under that stack but my hand hit something hard. I pulled out the object in the bag. A gun. Slowly I sat it on the table and reached to grab more. I pulled out 3 stacks of paper. Once I could see past the papers I realized my dad didn't just put one gun in the bag. There was 5 guns all different kinds and at least 20 different kinds of blades too, but what scared me the most is that at the very bottom of the bag lay a metal box with a lock on it. I looked to see if there was a key but I couldn't find one. After a moment of thinking I realized 'the necklace' running to my room I retrieved a jewelry box of my mothers from the back of my closet, and dug around till I found the familiar chain that held a single key. I slowly padded through the hall back to the living room and walked to the box. I put the small key into the slot and turned. It opened. I looked at the boys in shock.

"He knew it. He knew he was going to die if he left. He gave my mom this key a week before he died. He told her to guard it with her life until it could be given to me. I remember being so happy that the key would be passed to me even though I never knew what it was for it why he cared so much about it. This is why." I spoke the last words in a whisper as I opened the box to reveal the contents. The first thing I pulled out of the box was a pistol.

"Guys. He really was preparing. This has my name engraved into the side." I turned the pistol over in my hands before sitting it down and pulling out the next object it was a letter. Well a few letters. The first one said Rachel and the second one said Libby. Slowly I unfolded the letter to see


            Libby, I see you opened the bag and put the pieces together. I'm proud of you. I'm so sorry I couldn't be there with you while you're growing up or already grown up. I assume because I know who you are that you're older and only looking in this bag because there's a crisis of some kind. Stubborn. just like your mother. well, if you're reading this at a young age then know I love you I always have and I always will. Now, if you're not in a crisis and reading this for a purpose than i need you to put this letter down and go find your mother.

           still reading? good. now, since this is a crisis i assume you have found out who I am and what I did for my "job". Darling, I'm sorry you had to find out this way and not from me personally. what I'm about to tell you is not to be taken lightly.

            If Chris is still alive stay clear of that bastard he's no good. I hope and pray his son turned out better than he did. getting into the system and headquarters will be difficult, but i know you can do it. there is a secret entrance into the building that leads straight to the control room. no one else knows about this because i put it there and told no one. there is a map in the bag of how to get in. After all the boss position is yours. seeing as i didn't have a son the boss position is rightfully yours, but since you're a woman it might be more difficult for you to run the 'business'. no, i am not saying you are not capable I'm just saying with all the men it would be hard for them to want to take orders from a woman. I have written another paper explaining that you are the leader and i also have one from Chris which i got him to write for me so no one can take your spot. If you so choose you can have someone run headquarters with you as Chris and i did, but you see how that worked out.. If you do give someone shared power never let them feel like they have more power than you because they will take advantage of it. I have a few guys in the system that are waiting for you to decide if you want to join. If you do they will help you with gaining your title. Here is the list of people (last names) i recommend you work with. if you find more trustworthy companions along the way then by all means let them help, but their loyalties always remained strong with me and they will do the same for you. if the dads have passed away or no longer show up for jobs then join their sons

-Tanner

-Horan

-Irwin

-Jefferson

-Tomlinson

-Payne

I'm sorry we didn't get to spend as much time together as you deserved. I hope this letter will help guide you. please give your mother her letter. I love you darling i always have and always will. remember I'm your guardian angel  and I'm watching over you keeping you safe.

          love,

          Dad





i looked up from the letter at Niall and Ashton with traces of tears in my eyes. taking a deep breath i decided what i need to do.

"Read the letter. you guys are on the list of people to trust. did you know about this?" i asked looking at both of them

Ashton nodded while Niall said "I knew you were coming into power and that i would be one of the ones to help you, yes."

I looked at both of them nodding. "well then, i know what i have to do. we need to contact the other people on the list and speak with them. then, we need to go to headquarters."

Ashton nodded with a smile while saying "yes mam"

while Niall chimed in chuckling with "sure thing, boss."

I stood up clapping my hands together "well, then lets pay a visit to the Tomlinson house."








Oh my gosh. I know this update took forever I had terrible writers block. I made this one kinda long so i hope that makes up for the fact that it took so long. Make sure to vote! Love you and thank you for reading! x
