Chapter 88 Eighty Eight

Chapter 88 Eighty Eight
Irene's POV
Sitting on my bed, regretting why I drank wine so much, I guessed I couldn't focus, the tension engulfed me, I felt drunk to some point, my eye vision getting blur as minutes passed by.

I had a tingle feeling of sadness that we were going back home, back to the troubles of Steve, back to the torture of Kourtney, back to all the bad omen in that house. I just wished I could convince Xavier to add a week.
"Maybe I'll tell him in the morning, will he ever listen to me? I guess his enemies would be out there hunting for me." I muttered to myself as I laid on my bed. 

I really need to sleep, tired, drunk and hungry, sleep was the only option I have or else I could lose my sanity thinking about what precisely wouldn't work.

I paced around the room, I wanted to chose what I'll wear back home, 

"I'm Xavier's wife, I'm supposed to be the woman with a unique style of outfit. There's no use just wearing simple clothes and looking all moody." I encouraged myself as I pulled out all the dresses I had kept in the wardrobe, I guess slumber would have to wait.

I wondered how picking an outfit was easy to people, to me it's a long boring task, I grew tired of it, I picked out the pink dress I bought earlier that made Xander's eyes whirl in anticipation.

I love seeing his surprised face, it gives me goosebumps, wondering how it would feel to be in his arms again.

I sat in the balcony, just outside my window, I never realized that my room possessed a balcony until today. I sat, staring at the beautiful sky, wondering irrelevant thoughts in my head, like "What made the stars plenty? What's giving them the brightness and what's making them so gorgeous?" I felt embarrassed in myself knowing how people would stare at me if I ever asked this dumb questions. I quickly shaded off the thoughts, I noticed two men, walking in like air, they walked past the guards and were unnoticed by them.

I was scared a little, but my heart raced, as I heard a key plunged into the keyhole of my door. I quickly picked up a dress and placed it in my trousers, I jumped down from the balcony, immediately entering beneath Xavier's car. The guards heard the sound so they all dispersed with their flashlights, searching for who might have made that sound.

I quickly got up and ran to the other side of the parking lot, searching for a car I would steal. Reading books was part of my routine when I lived with my parents, and I read a part in a book where someone had to steal a car to take her daughter to school.

I sighed in relief, as I found a car, with it's door glass, whined down to a certain level, this was my only opportunity, I quickly placed my hands in between the space, panting in fear, because the guards were taking back their positions. I pulled up the door lock. Sighed in relief as I got into the car, locking it back slowly.

I quickly got into the driver's seat, I pulled down the pinging hole. There were a lot of wires, I really needed to cut the wire that would help me start this car, 
"The blue wires always seems right but you'll be sorry if you cut that wire, the red wire seems scary but you'll be happy if you cut that wire because it's the correct one" Lines of the book I read, it dawned on me I had another problem,
"What would I use to cut this wire?" I muttered to myself, checking if there any available knifes.

"Yes, I guess a scissors would do better than a knife " I chuckled pulling out scissors from a bag, I took from the back seat, I wonder who wouldn't take all his belongings when entering a hotel.

I quickly cut the wire, joining them together, that was scary trying to put myself together because I was afraid of the sparks. I quickly placed it together, the engine was ready to go, I quickly drove out of the parking lot, the guards were all surprised at the sudden movement of a car. It didn't bother them that much because it wasn't part of their job.

I never knew who those two people were, but whoever they were, I knew they wanted to take me, why come to my room straight. 
"I just hope Xavier would understand that I'm only running for my life, Wait my opportunity finally came at last, going out of Xavier's life of troubles. I finally had my moment, this is my blessing in disguise, I never planned it to happen this way but it happened either ways. I get to live my dreams and ambitions" Tears rolled down my cheeks feeling so fulfilled at this point, I need no soothsayer to tell me that I was free.

"I'm free" I screamed, pressing the horn vigorously, in happiness and joy.
I was saddened because, I drove aimlessly, taking turns and passing junctions. I didn't know where to go, driving for past an hour and yet couldn't find a place to rest my head. I started regretting why I left the hotel,
"I should have told the guards, they would have told Xander. Now I wonder how worried he would feel when he notices my absence" I continued driving, the night was still tender so, stopping would only leave me in fear and disarray.

I got to a point, where I saw someone sitting close to a handmade fire. I really needed to warm my body up, I was freezing,I guess the speed at which I drove was to my own detriment.

I stopped the car, and walked down to the fire,. I was very much close to the fire when I saw Liam, I turned back to run

"I wouldn't do that if I were you"

"What makes you say that?" I inquired in fear.
"Five, four, three, two, one and now" The whole car blew up.

"You were riding a car with a bomb fixed beneath it, I knew you would pick that car because I left the door glass. You should have picked any other car and not that one. You're naive and you wanted the fastest way out of that hotel. The scissors you used, had a tracker attached to it, you turned it on the moment you used it. So indirectly, if I was to kill you sadly you're the one that caused your own death." Liam scoffs, his words were all true, I wanted the fastest way out of the hotel, I fell right into the devil's trap, I hope he spares me. I really don't want to die now.
"You see now that I have you, I wouldn't dare touch you, because you're my ultimate ticket to becoming The Supreme Alpha, with you in my hands, I can bend Xavier to my will, I'll make him denounce the title once he's declared. There would be no other recipient to that title except me. It would be given to me on a platter of gold, this is what I tend to achieve with you, do you have any questions"Liam's last word startled me a bit.
"Ple-ase when you're done achieving your desires, would you set me free?" I inquired.

"Please guards tie her up and take her to the car, we're done here, Our homeland awaits us." Liam uttered as he walked past me. I knew he had other plans with me, I just wished Xavier would help me, save me out of his hands.

Tears rolled down my eyes as I was placed inside the trunk of his car, it felt so uncomfortable and derailed. I just wished to be free, I can account for my safety in the arms of Xavier.

I just wished to be free from all this troubles. Now I'm in the middle of a big fix that might cause the lives of many, Xavier would stop at nothing to get me back, Liam on the other hand wouldn't concede to Xavier's claims, he would use me as a bait to melt down Xavier's threats.

"Please Xavier help me, Save me Liam has captured me. I don't know where's he's taking me" I uttered reminiscing on the memories of Xavier, I knew he really loved me but he didn't want to show it to me, and I also love him, but too scared to tell him. It's of no use to me now, I might die in this feud for the Supreme Alpha throne.

I just hope this wouldn't affect the lives of the innocent, Xavier has a very strong personality and on the other hand Liam has a very stubborn personality. This would definitely be a blood bath.
