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 bipr and while my body secretly craved the attention and I am embarrassed
to admit that I have had more than one very dirty thought about those monsters, I still cannot bring
myself to ept 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 gettingte, 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 Chocte Pie. My anonymous knight in shining armor..
I immediately got up and headed to the bathroom. Opening the cab, I reached for therge tampon
box in the very back, as there were three, and opened it up to reveal the mani folder neatly folded
inside.
I ran to the room and opened up my closet, grabbed the medium ck 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

“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

I reached the ck 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 ck 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 headlightsing 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 mani 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 ck 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 Ie!
