Chapter 39: I'm sorry

Vanessa Pov

"Come, a car is waiting for us" she pulled me out as the angry voices got closer. It was dark, the sky was filled with stars. I looked at her face as she waited for me, I can't go with her. For all, I know we were working with them.

At least I knew Xavier wasn't working with them, he wanted to protect me. She claims she was my mother sister but how comes my mother never talked about her? And why wait all the years to find me? This was my chance to escape, I was already out. I looked at my surroundings and it was nothing but woods. I can run and lose them in the woods, hopefully, I will find a road with cars.

Pulling my arms away from her she looked at me surprised and confused. Not waiting for her to react I took off the other direction.

"Vanessa!" I heard her screaming "come back please!" Ignoring her I ran faster into the thick woods.
