Dante

Chapter Seven

I slowly opened my eyes but cringed as the sunlight hit the blinds. I groaned before rolling over in the bed where my back was now facing the blinds. I tried to set up but let out another groan for my head was throbbing in pain.

What happened last night?

I looked over at a chair and in my eyesight there was a beautiful white dress with red spots on it. I just ignored it and closed my eyes, wanting to go back to sleep.

My eyes popped open when I realized something.

There was a white dress with red stains on it.

I quickly shot out of the bed, ignoring the headache and I ran over to the dress. Picking it up I examined it.

This was the dress I was wearing last night to the banquet.

That's when the events then came rushing through my head.

Me and Dante got into a big argument.

Then I said I wasn't going to go to the banquet but I decided to go.

Then I met that Ashton dude and saw the side of Seth that I have never seen before.

Then they put up a picture of my parents and then I found out that everyone in that building had something to do with the mafia.

Including Dante and the other three boys.

I then was being close to being kidnapped by three men. And worse of all, I watched as Dante killed the three men...right in front of me.

I've been thinking about his words all night.

'Welcome to my world.'

My world.

His world as in the mafia world.

With a whole bunch of killers, con artist, and many more.

The hell I will.

I have to get out if here. My life could be at stake.

I dropped the dress on the floor and ran towards my bedroom door. I grabbed the doorknob and was about to yank it open to make my escape but I came to a halt.

What if Dante or the boys were here? They would kill me on the spot for sure.

I couldn't let that happen. I have to get out of here alive, and then I can go back to my old life with my aunt and uncle.

I placed my ear against the door to see if I could hear anything from the other side but nothing was said.

It was nothing but silence.

I slightly opened the door and peaked outside to make sure that Dante nor the others were in the living room and to my luck, no one was here.

So far so good.

I tipped toed out of the bedroom and I got on my hands and knees and I started to crawl my way towards the door. I kept looking around my surroundings trying to make sure that Dante was nowhere to be found.

Still not a sound was made, except the beating of my heart.

Ok, the coast is clear.

I crawled even closer to the door. That's right, just a little more closer.

I reached up and grabbed the doorknob. Turning it ever so slowly, I heard as the door opened.

Yes, this is my escape.

This is it, I'm doing it. I'm finally leaving this hell hole and away from these psycho killing boys.

I looked back behind me to make sure that there was no one here. Dante's door was still closed and everything looked as if it hasn't been touched. This is it, I'm free
