The Escape
Vanessa
It’s cold…so cold, but I can’t stop. I don’t care if I end up freezing out
here, anything is better than another second in that basement. My feet hurt,
aching with each step as I weave between the trees, crunching over rocks and
roots. The air bites at my exposed skin and I feel the burn of the cold air deep
in my lungs with each breath.
A small branch slashes into my arm as I run by and I feel the sting,
followed by a spreading warmth. I’m sure it’s broken the skin and started to
bleed, but I have to keep moving. I know Grady will be after me and if I stop,
I risk the chance of getting caught and dragged back. And then I’m sure it
would be even worse.
I know I could have run down the road and avoided the injury, but it
would’ve been too easy for them to spot me. I can deal with the cuts and
bruises. The woods are safer. But it’s getting darker with each step and I’m
not even sure I’m heading in the right direction.
As I rise up over a small incline, I pause for just a second when my eyes
finally see hope. A small cabin about a hundred yards away. The lights shine
out into the darkness and I can see the faint wisp of smoke rising from the
chimney. I start moving again, each step closer feeling like the edge of
freedom. I have no idea who or what is going to be inside, but it has to be
better than where I’ve been.
My heart beats rapidly and my breathing is heavy as I slow my feet to a
stop in front of the door. Loud voices and laughter come through the wood
causing me to hesitate. But I’ve come this far, I can’t be afraid. I’m tired of
living in fear. I lift my hand and let my fist hit the door, knocking loudly.
“Who the fuck is that,” I hear the muffled voices through the door.
“Hang on, I’ll check,” a voice replies as loud footsteps approach.
The door swings open and a bright light hits my face. The smell of
whiskey and leather fills my nose and my stomach drops as my fear takes
over.
“Well, well, well…hello there, sweetheart,” the voice at the door coos, but I
can’t bring myself to look up.
“Hey, who ordered the entertainment?” he calls back, pushing the door
open wide. I finally lift my gaze to find a room full of them. Large, dark
figures and all of them are wearing matching leather cuts. The emblem is
different from the one I recognize, but that doesn’t mean it’s better. I need to
get out of here. I start to turn, but a heavy hand falls on my shoulder.
“Where are you going?” he questions and I quickly shrink out of his grasp.
But my voice is gone and I can’t give him any type of response.
