FRANCESCA
Present day…
Every time a set of headlights crawls over my back, I have to fight off an
instinct to freeze.
No one is following you, Francesca.
Still, I’m nothing if not diligent. It’s how I’ve gotten away with this for so
long now.
Quickening my pace, I scurry down the sidewalk. The corner I need to
turn down is just up ahead.
Before I get too close, though, I give a quick glance over my shoulder.
It doesn’t look like I’m being followed.
Still got it.

No one gives the Italian mob the slip better than I do. But that just may be
because no one has as much experience with it as I do.
I’ve been sneaking around behind my father’s back ever since I was a
little girl. But up until last year, I had never gone far.
Then, I secretly enrolled in Branksome University. Now, three nights a
week, I take to the shadows and risk my life just to get a taste of normalcy.
Another wave of yellow headlights crash over my back, and I
instinctively hold my books tighter to my chest.
My escape earlier tonight was easy. Almost too easy.
The guards that patrol my floor might as well have been on painkillers,
they were so out of it—or maybe they’re just disgruntled. I’ve overheard
rumors that some of them aren’t getting paid on time.
A cold shiver tingles up my spine as I turn down a well-worn alleyway
that leads directly onto the main campus road.
All of my life, I’ve had people trying to keep me locked in my gilded
cage. I know what it’s like to be watched, to be followed. But for the last year
and a half, I’ve made sure that I don’t step on campus until I know that I’m
completely alone.
“Fran!”
The second I stumble out of the alleyway, I hear a familiar, welcoming
voice.
It comes from beneath the central courtyards most famous sycamore tree.
I can’t see beneath the shadows, but I already know who it is.
The light of a single burning cigarette takes its last breath before being
thrown onto the ground, where it’s promptly extinguished beneath the heel of
a white converse sneaker.
“Hey, Janice,” I smile, shaking off the last bits of primal fear that always
seem to haunt me when I’m on the run.
This is my safe place. Even if Branksome isn’t a normal school, when I’m
here, I’m a normal student.
“You’re early today,” she teases, looking down at her phone. The blue
light floats up from the screen, illuminating her soft country features.
“I’d say I’m exactly on time,” I smile back, checking my own phone to
make sure I’m not actually late.
Nope. It’s 7:45pm. Class is at eight.
“Exactly on time is early for you,” Janice giggles. “You must be nervous
about the pop quiz.”
“Pop quiz?!” If I thought the fear of getting caught sneaking around by
one of my father’s men was bad, it’s nothing compared to the chill that runs
down my spine at the devastating news.
“You didn’t hear the rumor?” Janice asks, raising her dark auburn
eyebrow in my direction.
