Violet's POV:
I stare at the wall in front of me.
What is happening to me, will completely change my life. It's already changing.
I feel like my head is going to explode, while my cheek is burning more. They hit me.
It happened a few hours ago, a man came in and brought a piece of bread and a glass of water. When I looked at him in disgust, he got angry.
I didn't do anything. I just looked at him, he began screaming at me. I covered my ears with my hands, unable to hear him any longer.
Then he grabbed me and his hand met my cheek. A wave of pain followed, before he left and I fell to the floor.
What did I ever do to deserve this?
And here comes the thought I hate. The thought that tells me to stay the fuck away from Blake the second I get out.
I mean that thought isn't wrong. It's not Blake's fault I'm here, but I definitely wouldn't have been here if I never met him.
And if I never worked in that stupid club.
I can't wait for them to save me, I have to save myself.
And when I'm out, I have to start a new life. New city, new identity, new people, new work.
Adrenaline rushes through me as I grab the glass of water that I hadn't touched. I throw the water on the floor and break the glass.
I grab a piece of glass and prepare myself for what comes next.
Ladies and gentlemen, let the show begin.
As my lungs are filled with air, I let out the biggest and scariest scream I've ever made.
After a solid minute, the door knob twitches and I position myself beside the door.
A man comes in and I instantly stab him, not feeling anything at all. I realised, he was the man that hit me. The fucker deserved it.
I reach his pants and grab the gun he had, before leaving his dead body there.
I follow a few stairs before swinging the door open. A man standing in front of me, playing with his phone. As he looks at me I shoot him, running to another door.
Seems like I have to go upstairs if I want to get out.
I quietly follow the stairs, preparing myself to shoot again.
I reach what seems like the kitchen, as I see a door that leads outside. The back door.
I open it and walk in a huge garden, only then I start to run.
I run as fast as possible, feeling a few tears escape my eyes.
I reach a big enclosure and climb it, even though my legs felt like giving up.
I never stopped.
When I had climbed all the way up, I jumped. No matter what would happen, I didn't care.
I had to run.
I hear a few gunshots and instantly get up from the floor, beginning to run.
The only thing in front of me is the forest. Where the fuck am I?
______________
After running for what felt like hours, I finally reach a street.
I continue walking, standing in the middle of it.
Then, I feel the sound of an engine, getting closer. That could be one of Sebastian's men, I should be careful.
I walk into the forest again, hiding behind a tree.
When the car gets closer, I see a man standing out from the car's window, a gun in his hand.
They're looking for me.
I take a deep breath before aiming my gun at the car's tire.
I shoot and the car starts swerving. Bingo.
I reach the car, they hit a tree but the car isn't damaged enough, I could still use it.
Two men exit the car and aim their guns at me "Oh come on! You won't shoot me, your creepy and ugly boss wants me, doesn't he?" I say smirking, they quickly look at each other before turning to me again.
I only have a bullet in my gun now. I have just the perfect plan.
I aim the gun to my head and they stare at me in confusion.
"If he finds out that I'm dead, he will definitely kill you in a very hurtful way, won't he?" I say, making one of them gulp. I'm loving this.
I let out a psychotic laugh, fear appearing in their eyes.
"Drop the gun boys. I will put a bullet in my head if you don't. And if I do put a bullet in my head, you guys will die too. So drop. The fucking. Gun." I never knew of this part of me. Or maybe I did know, I just hid it.
They let the guns fall down the forest's grass. "Now kick the gun. Far. Away." I demand and they follow my order.
"See? Im not a bad person. You will continue searching for me and then go back at the mansion, and just tell the old man you guys didn't find me. The car, that was a total accident, right?" I smirk and one of them nods, understanding.
"Good. Now, if you try to follow me I will kill you and then leave your body to the wolves." I blink an eye before getting in the car.
I let out a sigh of relief, it felt like I was holding my breath until now.
Where should I go, now that I'm free?
After following a few signs I reach what seems like the center of Firenze.
When my brother, surprisingly, came into my cell, he told me I was in Firenze.
I step out of the car, abandoning it in a parking spot.
There's a lot of people here, I should stay as much invisible as possible.
I see a young woman talking on the phone and I walk to her, looking around carefully.
"Scusa, puoi aiutarmi?" I ask and she looks at me, muttering a few words on the phone before ending the call. "Certo." She says slightly smiling.
(V: "Sorry, can you help me?" Woman: "Of course.")
"Posso il telefono per una chiamata?" I struggle a little but she nods, handing me her phone.
(V: "Can I have the phone for a call?")
I quickly call Silvia, hers is the only number I remember. I excuse myself from the woman and walk a little away, just so that I can have some privacy.
After a few rings, she answers. "Hello? Who is this?" She asks, I smile a little hearing her voice.
"Hi Sil, it's me, Violet. Listen, I don't have much time, but I escaped, I'm free. Tell the others I'm okay, but I'm not coming back." I say, a tight knot forming in my throat, but I shrug it off.
"Oh my God you're free, you're okay! I was worried sick Violet. Where are you? Are you hurt? Tell me where you are, we're coming." She says, a few tears forming in my eyes.
"I'm fine Sil. I'm not coming back, it's dangerous for me to stay there. And I might also put you in danger. I can't stay there, I can't stay with Blake, I'm sorry Silvia." I manage to say without breaking.
"No Violet. No, stop. Don't do it, please-" I cut her off, not letting her finish "I'm so sorry, you have to understand it's for my safety, and yours too." I say rubbing my forehead.
"Trust me, I understand. You have every right to. But don't do this to me, to Blake, to every one of us. Please Violet come ba-" I cut her off again "I'm sorry Sil, I'll be fine. Goodbye Silvia, thank you for everything, be safe." I can hear her talking again, but I end the phone call.
Letting out a sigh I delete the number and walk back to the woman, handing her the phone back and thanking her.
"Stai bene?" She asks and I nod, and when she starts walking away I stop her.
("Are you okay?")
"Parli inglese?" I ask and she smiles "Yeah, actually."
("Do you speak English?")
"Can you do me a favor?" I ask and she shrugs her shoulders "Depends on the favor, but tell me." She says and I smile.
I don't really remember how it actually happened, but now I'm sitting on a plane for Las Vegas.
The woman that gave me her phone for a call, we talked and I told her that I was in a difficult relationship and that I had to leave, she immediately bought me a plane ticket.
I feel bad for lying to her, but I couldn't just tell her that a Mafia man had kidnapped me.
I told her I'd hand her the money back once I had it, and then she drove me to the airport.
She was so sweet, I'll never forget her.
Her name is Anastasia Celine Fontaine.
