Ace Killian

chapter 2: My escape

Naomi's P.O.V

I woke up in a room lightheaded from what they gave me. I sit up in the bed and look around the room. It was gorgeous but so simple with its grey color scheme. The bed was a queen-sized bed with simple grey silk sheets in the center of the room. there was also an all-white vanity up against the wall and a chandelier hanging from the ceiling. There was also a white dresser on the opposing wall near a door I assumed was the bathroom. a couch on the back wall facing the bed. Out the window, I could see thousands of trees on the horizon. I get up to look at myself in the mirror and know that I was cleaned. I wore a simple white silk top and shorts, and my hair was combed back. When did I take a shower? I was so lost in thought that I didn't hear the door to the room open.

"It's about time you woke up. You slept for quite a while" the guy said as he walked up to me.

I retreated in fear.

 studying him he was quite handsome with his brown hair and brown eyes and muscular build. He wore a grey suit that screamed confidence and power.

"I'm Jake, no need to be scared. Come with me I'll get you something to eat" he said as he was heading towards the door, but I didn't follow him.

" I don't bite unless you want me to". I took that as my signal to follow him seeing that he had this devilish grin on his face.

i made sure to keep 3 feet of space between us.

As I'm following Jake through the halls, I'm shocked for words, everything was beautiful. Whoever bought me must be super wealthy. As we reach the kitchen, I see a whole bunch of people just like Jake in suits, but they are also carrying guns.

 I froze. Why are these people carrying guns? Jake grabbed my arm and pulled me to the kitchen.

"Stay focused" he said leading the way

I saw a girl about my age cooking in a maid uniform.

"Stacy get her something to eat" Jake said leaving me with the girl.

"What would you like to eat" she said with a big smile on her face.

she was quite beautiful with her brown hair and hazel eyes and rosy cheeks and smooth brown skin. She made me happy just looking at her.

"Anything is fine" i said taking a seat

when I was done eating i talked to Stacy.

"Stacy, do you know the person who owns this place" I ask curiously.

"Oh, do you mean Mr.killian" she asked me in return.

"He's the boss. He controls everything and everyone here" she said giving me a smile.

I pause for a moment wondering if I could trust her.

"Stacy..." i said questioningly

she stops wiping the kitchen counter focusing her attention on me

My name's Naomi Stewart and I don't belong here. I was kidnapped by your boss" I say in a whisper.

She turns away from me, pausing before she returns to wiping the counter. I hurry to her side.

"Stacy please...what if you were me. You'd want someone to help you, wouldn't you? I ask trying to get her to agree.

She looks at me with a sad face.

"I...I can't, I could get in a lot of trouble" she says concerningly. She hurriedly returns to cleaning

"Look ...just point to the door no one needs to know you were involved. I'll make sure of it" I say with pleading eyes.

Stacy then lets out a big sigh. she turns to me and nods her head in agreement.

"Okay"

I jumped up and down giving her a big hug.

"Thank you, thank you so much" I say in an excited whisper.

"Okay so this is what we are going to do" she says as we began to map out the escape

...

after deliberating i was hiding in the pantry. All i had to do was wait for the plan to be set in motion

 jake walked in.

"Stacy!" he yells as she comes running into the kitchen

"Yes jake? what's wrong?"  dang she knew how to play her role well

"Where the hell is Naomi??" he yelled worried

"i have no idea i left her right here" she says going to where i was sitting at the counter as if searching

"Mr.killan is going to kill us. what are we going to do jake" she says crying in a panic

"Fuck Stacy you were supposed to be watching her" he says in frustration as he wipes his whole hand across his face.

"Okay calm down. you know i can't take it when you cry. don't worry we're going to find her" he says as he gets on his phone to make a call.

"Stay here in case she comes back " he says as he leaves the kitchen.

waiting a moment Stacey then rushes over to me in the pantry.

"Okay this is your chance "she says leading me to the exit

"Omg Stacey i can't believe that worked. you're a natural" i said shocked as we reached the door

she just laughed is amusement. "it's nothing now go" she says as we hug goodbye

"Thank you for everything"

As soon as I reached outside the cold breeze hit my skin. I had no shoes or belongs. I ran feeling the gravel beneath my feet. I ran and ran till I was safe. I wasn't concerned with the pain in my feet nor the cold I was just glad I was free.
