OLIVIA'S POV
I woke up the following morning with renewed hope and new energy. I still had no plan of how I was going to get all of us out of this mess but I was hopeful and I knew that I would soon find a loophole in this mansion's security system. I was willing to use anything put at my disposal to achieve my goal of getting out of here no matter how manipulative I had to get I was willing to do it just to be with Mia and kelly again. This was the first time I had been away from Mia this long ever since she was born, when Mia was born my mother called me her designated nanny and it had been like that ever since then.
It was a little hard for me to come up with a solid plan of escape because all I ever did was spend the whole day locked up in this room and my movements were limited to going to the bathroom or the balcony. I had to convince Will to speak to Dante and then maybe he would agree to let me explore the rest of this beautiful mansion without his silly guards following me around but I knew that I would have to earn that trust. I knew he would probably be hesitant because the reason I was here in the first place was that I had been caught stealing but the only thing that I wanted to steal right now was my freedom since Dante wasn't willing to give it to me freely.
"Liv are you awake?" I heard Will call out to me as he stood on the doorway and I was sitting at the balcony plotting against him and his boss
"Yes, I am," I said as I jumped up and ran to him now was a good time for me to put the first phase of my plan into action and ask Will if they could let me spend more time outdoors.
"I was hoping that I would see you today, I am going crazy locked up in here I need some air" I complained as I threw myself on the bed and Will just stood there amused
"I feel like a prisoner and I am beginning to wonder why you guys are even keeping me here, why don't you just kill me already" I knew that was a deadly suggestion but I was desperate to get Will to pity me and if keeping me locked up in here was their way of punishing me then they had to know I had learned my lesson.
"I have good news for you," he said with a smirk
"Dante finally grew a heart? no that's impossible, did he finally decide to let me and my sisters go? that's too good to be true also...wait is he dead?" I asked excitedly and Will laughed nervously
"It's not nice to wish death on your m... on my boss," he said clearing his throat
"No he is finally loosening up and he asked me to take you shopping," he said and this was nothing close to what I had hoped that Will would say
"Well that's disappointing," I said
"Show a little enthusiasm Liv, don't all girls love shopping, or don't you want to go shopping with me?" Will asked disappointed
"I am not most girls and therefore what excites them doesn't excite me," I said stubbornly folding my arms and pouting and Will laughed heartily
" And it's no offense to you Will but I would rather go shopping with my sisters, and why would Dante ask you to take me shopping? do I disgust him or do my clothes?" I asked looking at myself and wondering what was wrong with the clothes that I was wearing except the fact that they had been what I was wearing when we broke in and that was over a week ago. I had been bathing and putting them back on and occasionally washed them and hung them on the balcony during the day to avoid smelling bad.
"He is willing to spend more time with you and so he wants you to be more confident," he said and I laughed out loud.
"I would be very flattered by that statement if it wasn't so offending and insulting, but you are telling me that your boss thinks I lack confidence?" I asked him and Will sighed and sat next to me
"OK I admit and I surrender, I am losing this argument, just get dressed and let's go," he said pulling me up and pushing me into the closet as if it had any of my clothes in there. There was nothing for me to wear in the closet except an oversized shirt that I assumed belonged to Dante, so I decided to put it on because it was the only option I had.
After Will left and came back some lady that was supposed to come and help me with my make-up led me to the car when she was done and it was time for us to get to the mall. The only time I had ever been to the mall was when I was hoping to score something. Mia, kelly and I never really went shopping for anything and most of our clothes were stolen. That was our way of shopping and I loved it like that, I wasn't a fan of being in the mall with all those people passing diseases around and walking too close to each other.
But on the flip side, this was a good thing, if Dante was warming up to me then that meant I could get close enough to him to get my hands on the keys to the room where he was keeping Mia and kelly. All I had to do was play along with whatever game he was playing with me until I got what I wanted. If Dante intended to loosen his grip on me then he had made the biggest mistake of his life because he had just offered me a way to get out of this mansion. Spending the day with Will at the mall was going to be like a stakeout for me before a big job, I was going to learn as much as I could about Dante so that when I launched my attack on him I would be well informed. The only thing that I could hope and pray for was that this stakeout wouldn't be a total fail like my previous one which landed us here.
