40- Push My Luck 

Aurora POV 

I am slowly woken up from my deep slumber by a soft, feather–like caress on my check. I nuzzle into my silk pillow more and then hear a deep husky chuckle close to my ear. 

“Wake up princess. We have things to do today.” That same husky manly voice says sweetly. I feel a lingering k*ss on my exposed temple and scrunch my eyes hoping that it’s just a bad dream. 

I hear an annoyed huff before my cloud–like plush covers are tossed from my b*dy and cold air swooshes over my exposed skin, chilling me to the bone.  Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“I’m up! I’m up!” I yell as I bolt upright. I gently rub my eyes and when my vision becomes clear I see Ben standing at the side of the bed, his arms crossed and his face stoic and bored. 

“Come on! Ass out of bed. Clothes are already in the bathroom. Jason wants to talk to you at breakfast.” Ben mumbles, trying to shoo me to the bathroom. I feel a sharp tap on my ass as I pass him.. 

“OW!” I scream and shoot him my best death glare and he only raises his eyebrows daring me to protest him. I quickly waltz into the bathroom, making sure to lock the door. I took a very quick shower and finished my morning routine in. a rush no thanks to the constant goading from Ben behind the closed door. I was given dark maroon three finger strap romper today that had pockets and a small gold colored belt in the center of my tummy. My undergarments were nude color today, but still mainly lace. Ugh! 

I put on a little mascara and black eyeshadow and some light pink l*p gloss and pulled my hair into a simple half up half down style. 

When I come out, Ben bends down and places a pair of black sandals on feet, tightening the straps for me and taking the time to k*ss each knee when he finished. I roll my eyes at him, earning another harsh slap on my ass when he stood up. He quickly took my hand and we made our way through the corridors. 

I noticed the goons in black were not following today. I started wondering why the sudden change. My thoughts were disturbed when I came to the main foyer stairs with Ben still holding my hand. I heard clear shouting in a foreign language, and it sounds angry and heated.

I look over at Ben and he has one of those ‘oh shit‘ faces. But before Ben has a chance to stop me, I get a full view Jonu the main foyer. I see something that I was definitely not supposed to, and little did I know right at that moment th08:0 my reaction to this scene would create a string of events that would ultimately determine the rest of my life. 

When we came to the stairs, I see Jason and Kai standing in the foyer, with at least 10 armed guards dressed in their usual black, including my usual escorts. They were surrounding three men who were on their knees in front of the 

Mafia bosses. 

Tears were staining their swollen and bloody faces. There were two older men and one who looks to be a teenager in the middle. Their arms were pulled back behind them, red rogs were stuffed in their mouths muffling their pleas for mercy. Before I can even comprehend everything in front of me, Kai and Jason pull something from their suit covered back so quickly and then the most horrific sound echoes around the hall:

BANG 

BANG 

BLUZ 

Bang Pang Rame 

That sound bouncing off the marble tiles in the main foyer are deafening. My mind becomes blank as my eves s three bodies drup on the pure white floor, a large gasp leaving my l*ps. I don’t scream, my wice feels tramper in my throat like a berry brick cemented in place. My heartbeat is in my ears and my b*dy feels rigid. 

I barely seems song arms around my waist, pulling me around the comer and placing me firmly against the wall, his face is more centimeters from mine and his hands on my face. I see his l*ps moving but cannot hear his words. My breathing is furnic like I just run against a cheetah. 

I can’t believe it. They amaly killed those men. Right in their own home. I knew they killed people, they hutt pempie They did lots of not so legal things. Clearly they were very feared men. They have a reputation of being ruthless and merciless. I am just a simme pri who loves to cook. I am not meant for the underworld of crime. 

Then I think of Brama Oh my sweet friend. The pain I buried deep inside of me hoping it wasn’t real, came barrelin into my consciousness like an planche. This is not the first time I saw brain matter explode from someone’s head That young man in the mutile was jjust a boy. He didn’t deserve that fate. Brianna didn’t deserve that fate. I don’t 

My breathing oddly starts to sw as I continue to panic in an inner monologue of despair. Ben has his forehead to mine, breathing slowly and I finally andh on that I should follow his lead. I was having a panic attack. 

“Aurora” I heard my name being sently called over and over again like a chant, and eventually it snapped me out of my thoughts. My breathing has slowed but the tears were still silently flowing. I looked around me and now saw the four faces I both secretly craved and wer with what just witnessed made me believe that I was no longer truly safe. 

I can’t stay here anymore. Ineed to get away from these monsters. 

I noticed the four of them staring at me with concerned looks quickly pushed them out of my way and ran down thi staircase, ignoring the masculine calls of my name. I weaved through the mass of guards and maids who were+10 scrambling to clean up the crime scene and made my way through the vast corridors, not knowing where exactly my Bon feet were taking me.

I came to the familiar doors of the library. I bust through the dour and instantly ran to the glass sliding doors that looked out into the gardens. I didn’t even think, I just much for the door knob and luckily it opened. I dashed outside and through the maze of neatly trimmed thiches, the diem aut grass still had moming mist. The sun was beaming brightly and not many clouds adored the rich blue sky. 

1 ran through the gardens and stopped under a large magnolia tree. There was a bench under the shade, sitting at the base. I hid behind the tree to catch my breath as I summed the bress enige around me. I decided to run into the forest and hopefully I would eventually come to a road again. Lem do this, tried to pep talk myself. I was wondering why they weren’t chasing me already. Usually they are on my ass like butter antttt. 

Then realization hit me like an express train to Canuda. They kniny Dant exope. They would have no doubt upgrade

their security features since my last attempts. The woods were surrounded by a fence and I homes had no idea how fe the perperty spanned 

Tegmadigings marched back to the house and went through the library glass door. I left it open and walked over to the main door. I heard lots of heavy footfalls echoing upstairs and around the corner. I quickly cum into another room down the haill when I saw the shadows bouncing on the wall ahead of me. I entered a small sitting room. It was delicate and had nid fashioned furniture like what you see in museums. A beautiful garden picture hung on the mantle above a white fireplace. I spent a few minutes exploring the new room and came upon a weird lociting time on the almost empty wooden hookshelf that spanned almost the entire wall. 

When I went to lith this silver modern art like sculpture trinket thing that did not look like it belonged in this very artistic feminine room, it only pulled forward slightly. A small click was then heard and the bookshelf them popped out just an inch 

No f**king way! I feel like a spy right now. This is so cool! 

I looked to the wall and saw the bookshelf had indeed popped out slightly. I pulled on the shelf end and the walll seamlessly inched toward me exposing a dark cemented corridor. I saw there was a flashlight resting on the back gamell of the wall. I took it and harbiy it flickered on. I stepped inside and just a few feet away there was a small dainty spill staircase that looked like it went up as well as down. 

Once I stepped inside the dump dink space, closed used the handle that was conveniently located on the wall to pull the bookshelf just as I heard panidled mulle voices near the door I was at. Before I completely shut myself away from *the confines of my gilded price. I heard the distinct sound of a whistle. 

Well crap. It was only a matter of time now before the alarms start blasting. I decided to make my up the stairs and see exactly where this mysterious secret passageway went. This could be the answer to escaping this wretched place once and for all. Maybe I can finally push my ladi
