LILY
I’m caught.
“Who has access to this room?” my cousin says, his voice muffled but
distinctive through the shut door.
My chest tightens and my toes scrunch in my sneakers. I withdraw my
hand from the doorknob. I was about to go into the living room of my
cousin’s house—it’s been mine too for the nine years since my parents died
—but I think that might be a bad idea.

Panic is making my head fuzzy, so much bloody rushing around I can
barely see. Honesty is supposed to be the best policy, but when you’ve been
stealing from a nineteen-year-old mafia boss still attempting to prove
himself in London, that rule is dead. Or you are.
“The two of us, and your father when he was alive, god rest his soul,”
my aunt lists.
“Who else even knows about that safe?” my cousin demands. He swears
violently, and there’s the sound of heavy, rapid footsteps as he paces
around. “It’s hidden behind the portrait. No one should know it’s there,
never mind be able to steal from it.”
Me. I know about the safe. I saw my uncle open it once, the code clear
as day. It took me too long to realise that the only life I’ve ever known and
the only family I have left are a prison. A trap.
But since then, I’ve been gathering notes little by little, saving up to run
away.
In my defence, it was only a few months ago that I finished my degree
and broached the issue of my getting a job. Turns out, my cousin has a
different approach to his father, who was kind in a neglectful sort of way
until he was murdered by Westminster a year and a half ago.
My cousin had
been too busy consolidating his position in the London mafias to actively
stop me from finishing my studies. But I was told my only role in the
Waltham mafia is to shut up, clean the house, and be traded off in marriage.
And that was when I decided to start stealing from a mafia boss. Fab
idea.
Do I have time to get upstairs and gather my belongings, meagre as they
are? I don’t have much money yet, but it could be enough? I have an
account my parents opened for me too, but my uncle told me there was
nothing in it. I could check.
“And Lily,” my aunt adds.
There’s a silence.
“Fetch my thieving little cousin,” he says slowly, voice colder than ice.
I nearly vomit as I tiptoe away, my heart slamming against my ribcage.
I’m shaking as I change to as normal a walk as I can manage. Fast, but not
suspiciously fast.
No time to go to my room. If my aunt finds me, I’m dead. If my cousin
sees me, I’m dead.
I am a dinosaur watching the beautiful streak of light from a meteor. I
am a fly surrounded by a sparkling spider’s web. I am limp salad leftovers
from three days ago that you put in the fridge and knew you were never
going to eat.
