Chapter 69

I threw myself on the bed.

"I need air, fresh air"

I opened my window and looked down, naughty thoughts were starting to flood my head.

I tiptoed down the stairs towards the elevator leading to the garage, a man stood protectively in front of it.

"Curses"

I walked back to my room thinking of how to get him to move.

A canister of sleeping gas lay discarded on the floor.

"Miracles happen"

I picked it up and jogged downstairs, on the stairs I pretended to trip over something and fall.

"My ankle" I grabbed it howling in pain, the man rushed to me.

"Are you alright?"

"My ankle hurts"

He moved closer to see.

"Sorry" I leaned back and opened the can and sprayed it directly to his nose.

He inhaled it and slumped over me.

I pushed him away and ran to the hidden panel before calling for the elevator.

The thrill of freedom called me to do impulsive things.
