“WHEN YOU ASKED ME TO take you to school early today, I thought you wanted to study, not break into the guy’s locker room.” Arabella’s eyebrows moved up as we strolled down the quiet hallway toward the gym.

It was Monday, and the only person I saw all weekend in the house was Ava. She kept trying to take my bracelet from me, which was amusing.

I had heard from the cook that the mayor was going to be gone for the month, taking a holiday in the Mediterranean. I felt relief and joy all at once of the news that I asked if I could be the one who made the pancakes. The cook was surprised but let me. Ava loved my chocolate chip and strawberry pancakes.

Not only was the mayor not around, but neither was his wife. As for Knight, he was around but rarely came out of his room and when he came out, he locked his door.

The sexy jerk must have known I would snoop.

“It’s not like that. I want to find Knight’s gym locker.”

She grabbed my arm, stopping me. “Whoa there, newbie. I thought I made it quite clear that you avoid Knight at all costs. He’s the devil.”

I nibbled my bottom lip wondering if I should tell her. Part of me was hesitant because I didn’t want my only friend possibly getting hurt. She might want to help, and then she’d be involved. What if the mayor went after her, too?

“If he’s the devil like you said, then I think he has his eyes set on me.”

“Duh.” She laughed and rolled her eyes. “I thought it was obvious given how he treated you last week.”

I shook my head. “No, I mean something more than just making school life difficult. He told me on Friday he didn’t want me to leave.”

Arabella’s eyes widened. She pulled me behind a set of lockers and lowered her voice. “When exactly did he say that to you?”

It was now or never.

“Something happened when you dropped me off on Friday. Something involving the mayor and his friends. And let’s just say what he did to me was the opposite of treating a guest with respect.”

“Violet. Did he hurt you? Did Mr. King do something that we need to go to the police about?”

I bit my bottom lip and nodded. Then I went and explained exactly what the mayor and his buddies did to me on Friday but stopped short telling her how Knight walked in on us.

She wrapped her arms around me and for the first time since before my mother died, I felt comfort and warmth. Arabella hugged me and whispered, “There’s a rumor about the mayor and I didn’t know if it was true.”

I pulled back. “What?”

“He only ran for mayor because he wanted a way to control the police so no one found out about his .
