THE ESCAPE Aisha P.O.V. Monday afternoon …… in the Penthouse Zena stiffened and said , I am sorry but Alpha Michele has given me strict orders that you cant leave the penthouse I walked straight out of the bedroom and went downstairs . I carried my purse , phone and shoes along with me . I was met by three big male guards blocking the elevator . They were blocking the only exit I had found so far in the penthouse . What the f ** k ? Topaz shouted , rather growled . She hates to be confined and would never agree to be locked away again . I could feel her pacing in my head . She was livid . So , I looked at Zena who had followed closely behind me and asked , Why cant I leave ? I am Alpha Micheles fate mate , and he has to take me out to meet his pack members ! in a determined but calm voice . The tension hung thick between us . She looked away , as if contemplating how to reply to me . When she finally faced me again , she said , It is not my story to tell , but you cant meet his pack members . At least for now . Basically , he has ordered that you not leave the penthouse until further notice . In addition , no one in or out except for his Beta Jackson , himself and , of course , me . Furthermore , he has placed three guards here and another three in the hotel lobby in front of the penthouse privat elevator . I want to see him now ! I demanded as I started pacing back and forth in the living room . I noticed the guards had not moved from in front of the elevator . Sorry , you cant . He is too busy ! she replied as she took a seat on the sofa . Call him then ! Right now ! I demanded as I stood in front of her . Sorry , you cant speak with him either She responded as I sighed to calm my nerves before I beat this b *** hs ass for playing with me . Zena shook her head with a sigh , as if pitying me . She got up and said , I am here if you need anything . Please go back and eat your food before it gets cold . Alpha Michele is going to come this evening , I promptly walked into the kitchen to call my girls and inform them of this latest development . 1/4 * B Points THE ESCAPE We talked and formed a plan . They were already in a stretched limousine headed this way when I called them . All I had to do was whip the three Delta ranked guards asses and the three in the lobby along with Zena . Holly and JuJu would be positioned in the lobby in case I needed assistance . Shelly had discovered a three minute glitch in the security system . Once the power for the whole building had been shut off , Trina along with Louisa would sneak in and enter the boiler room . They would shut off the power for the building by pulling the emergency lever located in the boiler room . After that , hit the lever again to restore power . So , to others it would just seem like a normal power glitch in sunny Las Vegas , Nevada . Then they would rush back to the awaiting Limo . Shelly , Robin and Lizzy would be waiting and monitoring everything in the Limo . The three minute glitch would allow the elevator door to open and automatically take me to the lobby as the system rebooted . I took a cursory glance at the newspaper open on the island table and walked to the fridge to take out an apple . As I took the first bite , my eyes fell on a picture on the front page of the newspaper . The image in the newspaper punched the air out of my lungs . Michele was standing with a beautiful thin blonde with white porcelain skin and green eyes . His arm was wrapped around her waist . This article was from five days ago before we met . I told myself , I cant blame or judge him for what happened before he met me , only from the moment our two souls met . He was wearing a tuxedo while she wore an olive silk dress that fell to her knees . She was smiling and looking at him with pure love in her eyes . While he had that trademark smirk on his face mingled with a look of victory . All I can think about is that she is everything I am not . The text beneath read : Famous International Model Emily Connor , got engaged to longtime boyfriend , wealthy businessman Michele Rossi , today . According to sources , they are set to marry in the next fifteen days . Emily and Michele have known each other since childhood and want to honor their love in the form of matrimony . Topaz and I started to see red . The text continued : Emilys modeling agency is very happy to announce the engagement . They are saying that Emily will be wrapping up all her contractual assignments and then retire to focus on her marriage . 2/4 +8 Painte THE ESCAPE Just as I read the last word , I got a mindlink from Trina , Everyone is in place ! Tell me when you want me to turn the power off , Aisha ! I replied , Okay ! and promptly ended the mindlink . Quickly , I made sure I had everything I needed and walked over to Zena . I looked her dead in her eyes and said , You should have called him for me and lost the attitude ! But you gonna learn today not to play with me ! What ?! What are you talking about ? she replied , totally taken aback by my words as she stood up from the sofa again . I punched her in the face and knocked her out cold . I said , Thats for not addressing me as Luna Aisha , b *** h ! Through the mindlink to Trina I shouted , One down and three to go ! as the three guards rushed towards me . I knocked out cold the first guard that reached me with one strong right hook to the face . Two to go ! I declared through the mindlink to Trina . Both guards tried to attack me at the same time . However , I did a drop kick and knocked one into the other . As they tried to regain their balance , I really went into attack mode . I broke and shattered the blonde guards knee cap . Next , I punched him hard and knocked him out as well . I mindlinked Trina , One left ! Go ahead and turnoff the power , Trina ! After that , I placed three brutal kicks into the last guards stomach . As he gasped for air , I broke and shattered his right knee cap . Next , I ducked his last five moves , waiting for an opportunity to land my fatal left hook to his face and end this fight . My patience prevailed just as the elevator door opened . I ran into the elevator and hit the lobby button . Trina mindlinked me to inform me that her and Louisa were back in the Limo waiting for me . As the elevator was getting closer to reaching the lobby , I received another mindlink from Trina , You dont need to fight once you get to the lobby floor ! Just walk normally to the Limo waiting outside ! Holly and JuJu arranged a delightful distraction for the guards ! I got off the elevator to see five gorgeous Latino women flashing the three huge male guards . They were too busy staring at the women to notice my departure from the elevator . So , I just kept walking and smiling . Unfortunately , as I reached the hotel doors , I encountered Alpha Emilio , Beta Fabio and his 3/4 +8 Paint THE ESCAPE daughter Cataleya entering the hotel . I didnt bother to stick around to give a formal greeting . Quickly , I just said , Good Afternoon ! Have a good day ! I am running late for an appointment ! E
