CAMILLA
Am I a coward for running? For abandoning my father to face the wrath
of this decision? But what choice do I have? If I don’t run, I’ll be forced
to marry a man I don’t love, someone who will not hesitate to hurt me if I
step out of line, and that’s not a life I wanted for myself, and clearly, it’s not
one my father wants for me either.
I couldn’t take any guards with me when I slipped out of my family
home, my father and Chloe both watching as I carried my heavy luggage
across the back lawn of our upstate New York home. We have one in the
city too, but this one is where I have the most memories of my mother, and
the one I’ll miss most as I flee.
The cab Chloe called for me is waiting at the curb behind our back
fence, and the driver helps me lift my bag into the trunk. I thank him as I
slide into the back of the car and let out a sigh. I don’t know if I’m making
the right decision. I don’t know if leaving is the right thing to do. All I know
is, if I don’t get out of New York today, trying to run is only going to make
my future even more bleak.
“Where to?” the driver asks as his gaze meets mine in the rearview
mirror.
“JFK,” I say quickly. The ticket in the envelope is for a flight leaving in
just a few hours, so I’m already cutting it close, but I almost wonder if
that’s a good thing. Staying still in one place for too long could mean
Charles and his men find me if they get wind of our plan.
I pull the ticket out and press my eyes closed. Rome first, and then I’m
not sure where I’ll go. Our network extends across the globe, but so does
Charles’s. I’ve always wanted to live in the French countryside, so maybe
I’ll head there first, regroup, and make a plan. But the reality is, I’ll live the
rest of my life on the run. I won’t be safe anywhere. Not while Charles
Davenport is alive.
I stare at the piece of card in my hand for so long the letters blur
together, and even then I can’t tear my eyes away from it. I didn’t say
goodbye to anyone, and now I won’t get the opportunity. I never had time
for friends as such, but there were people in school I liked, people who
might worry about me if I disappeared off the face of the earth. But there’s
not much I can do about that now.
