Aurora POV

I was sitting in my room, letting my thoughts run a marathon and I was getting more depressed by the

minute. I was going to be branded tomorrow like cattle. I wanted nothing more than to run away from all

of this. These men were bipolar and while my body secretly craved the attention and I am embarrassed All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

to admit that I have had more than one very dirty thought about those monsters, I still cannot bring

myself to accept this life. I want my freedom. I have been on my own for so long already. I was proud of

what I had.

It was getting late, close to my so ordered “bedtime‘ so I decided to take a nice hot bath; The Lord only

knows if ! would even be given a chance tomorrow so I had to take advantage of this time while I could.

put in a strawberry scented bath bomb that fizzled rapidly, turning the clear steaming water into a pink

paradise. I lowered myself into the bubbles and let the stress melt away. I stayed in the water until it

turned cold and my skin was wrinkled like prunes.

I took my time getting ready for bed, finishing my nighttime routine, and putting my hair in a braid. I

looked at the clock on the bathroom wall and it showed almost ten o’clock.

As I went back to the bed to await my night visitor to chain me up like a dog, I found a small white

envelope on the bed. I took it cautiously and sitting on the bed, opened it up.

It’s time. The doors will be unlocked. Strategy Room. Use Secret passage. 10:30pm.

Holy Chocolate Pie. My anonymous knight in shining armor..

I immediately got up and headed to the bathroom. Opening the cabinet, I reached for the large tampon

box in the very back, as there were three, and opened it up to reveal the manilla folder neatly folded

inside.

I ran to the room and opened up my closet, grabbed the medium black sports backpack I found tucked

away in here a few weeks ago. I shoved a few clothes in the bag and changed into sweatpants, long

shirt and a hoodie, with some converse shoes for running. I wasn’t going to wear skinny jeans, that’s

for sure. I went back into the bathroom and grabbed a few small essentials and shoved the envelope

into the pocket. My heart was racing in excitement.

I looked up at the clock and it read 10:25. Suddenly, I heard the famous locks on my door. Click. Click.

Click. I was still and I held my breath waiting for one of the demigods of destruction to waltz in here and

catch me red handed. I couldn’t move even though I knew I should. I was frozen.

But the door never opened. One minute, nothing. Two minutes, nothing. I finally started breathing

again. The clock then turned to 10:30 and I bolted to the door, slinging the backpack on my shoulders. I

listened through the crack for any signs of the guards and slowly opened the door to a beautiful sight!

An empty hallway.

It was so beautiful and I almost started crying-

A rush of adrenaline spiked in my veins and I wasted no time in sprinting to the strategy room which

was down two halls on the same floor thankfully. I tentatively touched the handle like it would burn me

I slid through the opening by pushing on the door slightly, making sure to pop it back into place when I

was done. Il vainted the flashlight hanging on the wall and turned around, clicking on the light.

“We don’t have time to chil–chat. Tuse this.” He said while he handed me a very thick white letter sized

gently and we had made it to the first floor and were going down the next set of stairs.

“Why? I thought you were loval n your homes.” I breathed out. I had to know why he was helping me

That wasn’t cryptic at all. Nere the arcuan. But when I lived to press Thomas on v what he meant, all I

got was a deadly “drop it look that made me zip up my lios quativ. We mintinued down a small hallway,

He looked at me one more time and sand “take the maim to the first fear and go through the door. It

The garage was massive, almost as large as the house itself. I looked anmund and I was in the middle

wall. There were at least 100 hundred cams, mostly/all SUVs, Range Rovers, and sports cars. All black

I crept out of the wall, making sure it closed behind me on the springile the other door. I only started my

I reached the black town car in no time. This town car was definitely an older model. It was still clean

and in nice shape, but I bet it had plenty of miles on it. I opened the driver side door and flung my bag

in the passenger seat. I found the key in the console. It was an actual key, not a keyless fob like most

cars these days, and started the engine. It vroomed to life and I hit the garage door opener on the visor.

I began to pull out when I saw a few muscled men in black suits running out of the door at the end of

the hallway.

I stepped on the gas and literally burned some rubber as I sped through the door and onto the main

paved driveway. I floored the pedal and did not stop. My heart raced. I kept looking in the rearview

mirror and luckily didn’t see any headlights coming behind me. After driving about twenty minutes, I

reached the main gate and hit the little button on the visor. The gate opened and the guard sitting there

just waved me through. I was so happy my windows were tinted right now. Another five minutes of

driving and I came to the main county road. I reached over and grabbed the manilla folder, opened it up

and grabbed the instructions.

“1. Turn Left at the main road. Go 62 miles straight until exit 293, take a right.”

This is it. I sent a silent thank you to my silent knight in shining armor before turning the wheel to the

left and merging onto the main open road, covered in pitch black darkness, the only light source was

the twinkling stars and the high beams of the old car. I floored the pedal once more, speeding down the

road.

Freedom, here I come!
