I took a step ahead with the summer light directly falling into my eyes. I have never seen this sunshine in my life before I turned 19. I squeezed my backpack and ran in any direction. I was wearing my cousin's t-shirt with a short, a hat, and a mask to disguise myself.

My name is Rachael. After the death of my parents, I had been adopted by Uncle Ben. I had lived 10 years of my life with them. I was superb happy at first because they had never tried harassing me or abusing me. Even it was great to live with my cousin, Alaric, who was one year younger than me. Even he had also never treated me poorly at all. I had to get all the love and care that I could ever think of. But I had to give up my freedom. every time I tried to get out of the house, the bodyguards never let me out. Maybe after getting that much love, I wasn't satisfied. Alaric had the freedom to go out whenever he wanted, but why can't I?

"Uncle...Why can't I go out?" this was the question that I had asked him every day.

The replies I got were," You aren't big enough."

                                    " Alaric will help you get whatever you need."

                                    "What's there need to go out?"

and when there's no excuse, he just got slipped away with his business excuses.

I felt bad for Alaric, for not telling him, but he helped me to get caught when earlier I tried to escape. He was the easiest to deal with but whenever I tried to take him up to help me to flee, he was my first enemy.

That didn't mean that I had never gone to secretly look around with him.

But today, I finally made it out.

Now I just wanna go ahead, without looking back. A life where there would be no restrictions.

I moved to a crowded place, where it will be difficult for anyone to trace me. I took out my mobile and looked for Google Maps to know where I should head. I reached a cheap rented hotel. But I thought I should never have gone there.

"Aaah baby, I am unable to walk, you were too rough.."

"Would you like to use me?"

"I will eat you all by myself..."

I turned but an old drunk man caught my hand, "Hey Darling...where are you going? Our bed is on this side."

Without any hesitation, I gave him a swing Taekwondo kick and made him lie on the floor instead of on a bed.

Oh..sorry if I forgot you to tell one thing about me... My Uncle is the head of the Mafia. Basically, I know many types of self-defense techniques that I have been taught by Alaric. you could think that how hard it was for me to run away from the Mafia. Will I really be able to live on my own? without getting caught?

I secretly moved out of that place by disguising myself. And the last option that I had was to visit the ENGRADE ROYALE hotel, which was a high-class hotel with 31 floors with a swimming pool and the best facilities in it. It comes in the top 3 hotels in this country. I had heard about this hotel, A man named Neill Engrade had built it over 60 days to prove his love for his wife, who was about to die, with her age compared to the floors. How romantic right? But too costly...That's why...I packed one section of my bag just with money and ornaments.

This Building was my last place to stay because it was the only one where Uncle Ben can't come because of its high-security system. I had lured them to find me in transportations, so it's a 30% chance for them to search me in hotels and a 1% chance to search me in this hotel.

I paid the fee which cut off half of my savings. I got a room on the 26th floor. I opened it, it was dark, switched on the lights and lay on the bed.

"It was a hectic day." I sighed after getting relaxing vibes.

I looked towards the window, the clouds were filled with a black atmosphere, and the lightning started to burst. I opened the balcony and could feel the chilly air with my eyes closed. A strong smell of guilt and a strong feeling of the death of my parents made me cry.

'Maybe if my parents were alive, then I would never have to escape.'

A strong piece of the giant rain hit my face, maybe it showing that I wasn't alone to cry and let myself to let myself out.

I bathed in the rain and it felt nice to feel what how rain looks like.

I came inside after being in rain for a long time. I dropped my wet t-shirt and my shorts in the room, where my perfect beautiful body curves can be seen in my underwear. I took off my underwear and move to the bathtub.

maybe I was too sleepy, I slept in there.

Stunning jaws with a decent face that suited the perfect eyes drowning in the blue sea, a sexy lip with a cherry red tint on it, and a dark pair of eyebrows show worriedness. A handsome man, in his suit with his hair professionally done appeared in my dream. He was saying something.

'Wow...what an alluring voice that stuck to the ear. I wish this dream never ends.'

'But wait... Can I hear voices in my dream?' I opened up my eyes and screamed, "Aaaaaaahhhhhhh."

I kicked the man in front of me and came out of the bathtub and covered myself in a towel.

"Wh...who are you? And how comes you are here? Did someone send you here to take me back..??" I grabbed a flexible pipe tap and started sprinkling water at him.

"Wait...ma'am...please try to understand...wait", he was trying to speak, when I was too embarrassed to let him speak. He became agitated and caught my hands and pinned me against the wall. The water tap that was still running in my hand was making both of us wet.

"There's a fire in this hotel, please get out of this hotel immediately." before I could think of what to do, I was already at the doors.

"Wait...I have a bag." I told him.

He took my bags that were on the bed and put his wet coat on me. There was a fire on the 29th floor in the kitchen of the hotel. We took the stairs instead of the elevator.

'Down...Down...Down.. and how much did I have to walk?' I slipped from the stairs because of being wet and my overthinking.

"Ouch" it hurts my forehead, I could feel the blood coming out from my head, "Aah"

"What happened?", He came back after hearing the scream. He took out his handkerchief and put it on my forehead.

And lifted me in his arm and again started crossing stairs. I could feel him too close to me. Now I could see many people using stairs to escape.

After coming down he put me near the Ambulance and started helping others. I looked up and it was great smoke coming out near the 29th floor. I looked around, there were many people who were staring at my inappropriate dress. Media people were also there filming the scene. I secretly shifted to a corner where there was no attention towards me.

I started crying in fear. My money? My plan? I could see everything merging in the sand. I have nowhere to go after paying half of my money on staying here for tonight. I sank down when again that alluring sound make me wake from my heartache.

"Hey Miss, Why didn't you get treated yourself?" He asked me

I looked at the crowd over there with Media snapping at them.

"You go, I will manage myself," I said

He took my hand," Let's go, You need to be treated."

I snapped at him, "I don't wanna go...why don't you mind your own business." That time my tension, fear, and worry can be seen in my words.

Maybe he could see through me. He looked at the crowd and then at me.

He took me to a side," Come behind me.", he said gently.

He opened a car," Sit inside and you can get change, I will be back in an hour."

Oh! He's a chauffeur. Maybe that's why he knew about this hotel cause he works here.

I changed my dress. where I see his jacket and smell. It just smells like him, it smells just like Vanilla. I was too much indulged with his coat to realize the time.

A cold hand brushed through me I opened my eyes.

"Sorry to make you frightened." What the hell! I was again sleeping like a log. He was opening my seat belt.

"Where are we?" I asked looking outside at a vigilant flat.
