Dolore di Layla

Chapter 9

      The sound of the alarm clock beeping at 6am seemed like it was speaking to me directly. I instinctively rose up the marble floor I had welcomed as my new bed.
I needed to leave, to go home to my parents and bestfriend. My legs carried my body right to the bathroom and I stood before the mirror looking at the broken battered female who looked back at me. I had managed to look less of myself, my skin shone with different colours along with helplessness written proudly on my forehead. I was repulsed at myself and my decision to stay with a monster.  Blood rolled down my face from a cut on my forehead and my fingers moved across my now black eye and cheek.

I've had enough!

Pushing my way back to the bedroom, I pulled out my luggage and begun throwing in cloths, at some point I realized I didn't even need to take anything that would remind me of these past weeks. I closed it up immediately and pulled out the half filled suit case. Picking up a random bag, I threw in my iPhone, charger and some bundles of cash I had found in Xaviar's side drawer.

      Banging the door shut, I furiously made my way out pulling the luggage along with me as I took large steps.

      I heard what seemed like a door being closed and shuffling of feet, I guessed he had exited his office but I couldn't care less as I willed myself forward

    "Where the fuck do you think you're heading off to Layla " he barked at me

   I paid no attention to the wild dog as I pushed on down the stairs.

    "Layla!"

He rushed down after me, I begun moving faster

    "I asked a question you bitch!"

He had succeeded in halting my steps by dragging my luggage

     "AWAY FROM YOU!!" I screamed back at him with some new found courage.

I let go of the suitcase since he seemed to want it so much and sprinted off towards the door out of mansion and he followed right behind me

Adrenaline swept through my body pushing me to go on. I could feel blood move in my veins with my heart thudding in fear with each heavy footstep I took as I ran. I was scared to death, I badly needed to get away from Xaviar, I knew if he eventually caught up with me it wouldn't end on a good note.

      "open the gates!!" I yelled banging the huge gates repeatedly

    "please!!!" I screamed at the guards who stood stupidly watching me

his feet thumped loudly as he grew closer to where I stood

"IF HE FREAKING KILLS ME IT'LL BE ON YOUR HANDS " furious tears escaping my eyes while I screamed out these words

I could feel their eyes fixed on me but I was less concerned of how the situation looked to the staff who watched the scene curiously

"Nowhere else to run to bambina?" He asked sarcastically

"cat got your tongue???"
As he said this, I turned to look at him. His hair was disbehaved and he reeked of alcohol. He must have killed himself with whiskey in his office.

"you disgust me!" I spat at him

Xaviar's eyes twinkled with an emotion I couldn't describe and his lips formed into a smirk on hearing my words.

"Do I??"

He took me by surprise with a quick kick to my side and I fell to my knees immediately. His hand grabbed on my hair and he pulled me along with him roughly leading his way back into the house
