In Love with a Bad Boy

Ezra's pov:

Are you really sure about this ?

My attention was focused on Kiana when she asked me that question.

I can tell how concerned she is just by looking at her face right now, I let out a deep sigh and nodded.

"Yes", l answered, determined .

She crossed her arms and heaved a worried sigh, it's not like I can stop you from escaping.

I feel like my ears grow bigger and eyes widened, like a flash, I covered her mouth before she continued what she was going to expose.

Can you please lower your voice, Kiana ?

They might hear us !, I hushed her and darted her a warning glare .

We are here inside my room , Kiana asked permission from her parents to let her sleep here in our house for tonight.

We are talking about a concrete plan for how I can escape later. Because tomorrow is the day that am going to get married , and there is no way my parents will call off the wedding , so I have to run away before that happens .

No matter what, I can't let that wedding proceed , I can't let them have satisfaction.

Kiana and I fell silent as soon as the door opened and mom entered my room .

Ezra are you ready for tomorrow?, Mom asked me in a jubilant tone

I just nodded in response , although in my heart , I intended to answer the opposite,I feel disappointed and bad for my mom at the same time.

I feel bad because I can see the glitters In her eyes , if she's been waiting for me to get married.

I feel disappointed because I can't believe they can put my life In line for sake of their company.

Am not a puppy, I'm their daughter .....

I'm sorry mom but I can't and I don't want to go on with the marriage that I never approved of in the first place .

It has only been a month when my parent declares our engagement without asking for my approval.

Now, mom wants me to marry him as soon as possible?,What does she think marriage is ?, A game ? A business deal?.

That's Good to know , get rest now my dear , tomorrow will be the greatest day of your life !"

She smiled at me before finally leaving , "Greatest day, my foot!!"

Your parents are really serious about that wedding huh ?" Kiana, who was sitting beside me whispered while she's eating the snacks I hid earlier.

" So what's your plan now ?"

I'll wait untill midnight to assure that they are sound asleep .

Then that's the right time to leave..

It's now 12:30am at midnight. My parents, the maids and the guards are now sleeping tight.

Good thing my parents went to bed early, Kiana is with me at the moment, she hasn't slept yet because she wants to make sure that I can escape from these house with no worries.

After i finished preparing my baggage , we slowly left the room .

Every step we took was careful, nor did we make any noise because the body guard at the front gate might hear us in no time.

We went through the easiest route cos there was no body guard there at that tym.

When Kiana and I got outside , I hurried and bid my farewell to her.

Thank you for helping me, Kiana . I owe you a lot , I smiled at her , getting emotional , I hugged her tightly .

After a few minutes of silence,we both loosened our grip on the hug, I have to go now .Goodbye, Kiana

Goodbye Ezra; she said crying while waving as I turned my back to walkaway.

I put my belonging in the car compartment and started driving off , I don't where am going maybe its better to go to a hotel only for tonight.

Two hours of driving I haven't found a single hotel ," f**k", I cursed .

Out of nowhere it started raining heavily, I couldn't see see very well cos it was dark .

I've been driving for almost four hours already I still couldn't find any hotel or apartment.

All I know was I was far away from my city. I swore every bad word I knew when my car suddenly stopped in the middle of the road.

"Shit ", I cursed , of all times , why now ?, I could do nothing but jump out of the car , I do t care anymore if I get soaked in the rain.

I checked my car and found out that I ran out of gas. How unfortunate I am. There is no gasoline station near here .

I roamed my eyes around the place , wondering if I couldn't find a shelter , good thing I noticed a house where I was standing.

I took my baggage from my car compartment and ran towards the house , maybe I can stay here untill the sun rises.

I Knocked several time but no one answered nor opened the door for me . I thought that maybe no one was there , I was set to leave but then ,the door suddenly opened , a man appeared in front of me.

Do you need anything, miss?

I was about to speak to him when I turned to the others behind him, they are seven in total and they are all men .

I swallowed the lump in my throat in nervousness.
