As i enter my room i spot Jasmine pacing back and forth clearly agertated ,obviously shes been worrying because we were supposed to leave yesterday but there's not a lot i could do about it ,we will just have to leave after the tasks, Jasmine looks up as i close the door ,i hold my hand up so i can explain before she says anything " i know i know im sorry ,i couldn't say no we will have to go another day" "errrrrr you have a visitor " Jasmine says with wide eyes before looking to the corner of the room ,i turn my head and there sits Ellie , Biancas slave i freeze unsure if she can be trusted but she must see the doubt on my face because she says " it ok i suspected you had a plan to leave " "how " i ask she smiles " i have to pay attention to things around me so i see things that the Alphas don't i just decide what i do or don't want to share " ,i just look at her blankly ,again she smiles "so your secret is safe" i let out the breath i was holding "that's why im here actually" she says whilst me and Jasmine look at each other before turning our attention back to Ellie " Did you no Blake went to see Bianca last night?" i shake my head "well he threatened her and shes not happy ,there parents are coming back tonight and she plans to have you put in the ring first which means you will be doing your task at 8am tomorrow and to make it worse she plans for Dirk and Jared to be your escourts so they will come and get you tonight at around 10pm and be locked in a room all night with you " i swallow loudly the grasping at straws i say "but the president will have to agree " she gives me a sympathetic look "the president has never said no to Bianca,shes the apple of his eye,you need to escape today before the president comes back" that's when Jasmine calmly says "we cant the outside door is locked on a Sunday ,nobody gets in or out" Ellie smiles" i know a way but lets just be clear ,i hate it here and i hate Bianca so im coming with you " "errrr ok but we cant just leave we need to plan ,nobody knows so they wont know to meet us" i say Ellie shakes her head "we dont have time we need to leave right now ,the presedent is on his way back as we speak and anway i already spoke to sam and he's sending the message to everyone else i just need to get you ," i just nod to jasmine who judging by her scared look is just as frightened as i am she grabs a bag and turns to us ready to leave "wait Jazz " i say "where is the rest of our stuff?" "i took it all yesterday so it would be easier for us because i didnt know how long you would be with the Alphas son" i just nodded i had a lot to tell Jasmine but i didn't want to say anything in front of Ellie ,im not sure how much she can be trusted, "ok" Ellie says" we will meet the others then go, come on " .so we all leave, me and Jasmine following Ellie who leads us to the lift, we all let out a relieved sigh when the lift opens and it's empty, we all step in and Ellie pushes the button BASEMENT, iv never been this for down before and from the look on her face neither has Jasmine,
the lift seems to take forever and seems really loud in the silent building but eventually, it comes to a stop and with my heart in my throat the doors open revealing a group of people looking at us, i let out a loud breath as Wolf comes to me and wraps me in his arms "your safe " is all he says looking into my eyes, i look around and see everyone there all looking a bit strained but safe "ready" Ellie looks to a tall man who im guessing must be Jimmy "yes we need to go now , before there discover our empty rooms "he says then looks directly at me " i think your room will be watched closest that's why Ellie waited to get you till the last minute " i just nod to him before sam pipes up with "well come on then let's get moving "
we all follow Jimmy into a tunnel "right , these tunnels are for transporting goods and lead to the forest but we need to run just to be extra safe, i want us out of here asap so follow me" and with that, we all start running, with Wolf who has taken the bag from Jasmine bringing up the rear.
After about half-hour of running, we come to a door making us all stop Jimmy just turns and smiles at us before holding up a key, then he unlocks the door and ushers us all out before locking it again behind us then he turns to Angel whos looking at him curiously "so they don't know how we left " is all he says. Sam point to the trees "we need to get there without being seen so Lina you and me first ,then Jasmine and Danlow, Simon and Ellie ,Angel and Jimmy then Wolf you bring Lissa ,is that ok ,we all nod before sam runs with Lina following behind to the trees across the way, then everyone takes it in turns to run while crouched as low as possible although i did notice Jimmy held Angels hand and had his other arm around her as if protecting her which i found kind of sweet then it was mine and wolfs turn and before he has the chance to take my hand im running and in what feels like seconds we are in the trees and everyone starts laughing and congratulating each other ,me i just look round the trees and look up at the balcony high up knowing its Blakes ,i think i see movement but its just my eyes playing tricks on me ,i know he's not looking down at me no matter how much i would like a glimpse of him ,i can feel a hole in my chest and i find im rubbing my fingers over the engraved hearts on the braclet Blake gave me ,i feel a hand on my arm and look round to see Wolf "ready he says looking up at the balcony then back to my face with a frown ,i nod "yeah" the silently follow him through the trees towards the camp Sam has been preparing.
