*Chapter 6: The Escape*
Sandra's heart was racing as she stood in the doorway of her new bedroom. She couldn't believe she was actually married to Xavier Leo, the ruthless Mafia lord.
But as she looked around the lavish room, Sandra knew she had to focus on her escape plan. She couldn't stay trapped in this life forever.
Just then, Rhea, Sandra's best friend and fellow biker, burst into the room. "Sandra, we have to get you out of here," Rhea said, her voice low and urgent.
Sandra's eyes locked on Rhea's, and she felt a surge of hope. Maybe, just maybe, she could escape Xavier's clutches after all.
Rhea quickly filled Sandra in on the plan. They would sneak out of the mansion under the cover of darkness, using a secret passageway that Rhea had discovered.
As they made their way through the dark and dusty passageway, Sandra's heart was pounding in her chest. She knew that if they got caught, Xavier would stop at nothing to punish her.
But Rhea was a skilled navigator, and they soon found themselves outside the mansion walls. Sandra took a deep breath of the cool night air, feeling a sense of freedom that she hadn't felt in weeks.
As they made their way through the city, Sandra knew that she couldn't stay hidden forever. Xavier would find her, and when he did, she would have to face the consequences.
But for now, she was free. And with Rhea by her side, Sandra knew that she could face anything.
As they walked through the city, Sandra felt a sense of exhilaration wash over her. She was finally free from Xavier's grasp, and she could breathe again.
Rhea smiled and nudged her playfully. "You're finally free, girl," Rhea said. "We did it."
Sandra grinned, feeling a sense of gratitude towards Rhea. "We sure did," Sandra said. "I owe you one."
Rhea waved her hand dismissively. "You don't owe me anything," Rhea said. "We're in this together, always."
As they turned a corner, Sandra spotted a small café up ahead. "Hey, let's grab a coffee," Sandra said, nodding towards the café.
Rhea raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure that's a good idea?" Rhea asked. "Xavier could have people looking for you."
Sandra hesitated, feeling a pang of uncertainty. But then she shook her head. "I need a coffee," Sandra said. "And I need to feel normal again."
Rhea nodded, and they slipped into the café, blending in with the other patrons. As they sipped their coffee, Sandra felt a sense of normalcy wash over her.
But as they sat there, Sandra couldn't shake the feeling that they were being watched. She glanced around the café, but everyone seemed to be minding their own business.
Rhea noticed her unease and leaned in close. "What's wrong?" Rhea whispered.
Sandra hesitated, feeling a little silly. "I don't know," Sandra said. "I just feel like we're being watched."
Rhea's eyes scanned the café, and then she nodded. "Let's get out of here," Rhea said. "Just in case."
As they left the café, Sandra felt a sense of relief wash over her. She was being paranoid, but it was better to be safe than sorry.
As they walked through the city, Sandra's mind began to wander. What would happen next? Would Xavier find her?
Rhea seemed to sense her unease and put a reassuring hand on her arm. "We'll figure it out," Rhea said. "Together."
Sandra smiled, feeling a sense of gratitude towards Rhea. She knew she could count on Rhea, no matter what.
As the sun began to set, casting a golden glow over the city, Sandra felt a sense of hope rise up inside her. She was free, and she had Rhea by her side.
Together, they could face anything.
