ESCAPING THE CEO 3

As I slowly opened my eyes, I felt an incredible sense of relaxation and contentment wash over me, and a satisfied smile spread across my face as I wondered at the warmth that surrounded me. My gaze roamed around the unfamiliar surroundings, and for a moment I was confused as to where I was. But then, it all began to come back to me in a rush; the memories of where I was and how I got there filled my mind.

The surreal feeling of the moment left me in a state of disbelief as I turned to see the Alpha peacefully sleeping with his fingers lightly grazing my body. This could be my chance to get out of this situation, I thought to myself. Taking great care not to disturb him, I carefully removed his hands from me, inching away slowly and silently.

My heart raced as I quickly made my way to the door, carefully attempting to turn the handle and make my escape. Just as I was about to make my getaway, I heard a voice which sounded familiar. It was him.

"Where are you going?" he asked with a suspicious tone.

I spun around, plastering a fake smile on my face in an attempt to not let him know of my intentions. Trying hard to hide the fact that I had been nervously holding my breath, I replied in a calm voice,"I…I..I'm just headed to the restroom."

He stood up, walking close to me. My body hit the door that was locked and tried to remain far away from him..

I despise it when people deceive their Mate. You had tried running away before, and I remember how much of an ordeal it was for me to track you down. If you attempt to do it again, there won't be anyone who can rescue you from my grasp. You can take a trip to the restroom if you wish.

I couldn't bring myself to answer him. His words were a stark reminder of the time I had attempted to run away and how difficult it had been for him to eventually track me down. He was right, he had saved me from whatever danger I was in, but at the same time he had taken away my freedom and destroyed my life. I could feel his gaze burning into my back as I silently walked away, nodding in agreement before heading towards the bathroom door.

Once inside, I frantically searched around for anything that could help me make a successful escape this time. My heart was pounding as I looked around the room, desperately hoping to find something - anything - that could help me finally be free once more..

I gazed up at the small window, feeling a wave of relief wash over me as the morning sunlight illuminated the room. I scrambled to open it, silently praying that it would be large enough for me to pass through. My heart raced as I heard the sound of footsteps growing increasingly louder outside the door; this was likely my only chance to escape this living hell I found myself in. With a sudden knock on the door I turn atound.

"Vira, open the door right now!" he yelled, pounding on the door with his fists in a desperate attempt to break it down. I heard his anger and frustration resonating through the walls and I knew I had to act fast.

"Just a minute," I shouted back, frantically looking around for an escape. My heart raced in my chest as I spotted an open window and quickly scrambled up onto the windowsill. As soon as my feet touched the ground outside, I heard a loud crash behind me and knew that he had broken down the door.
