Natalya grins wickedly. “You’re going to learn some SA secrets tonight.” Instead of taking a left and heading out of the dormitory, we turn right deeper into the girls’ wing.

My stomach dips when I see Jeanie, Anita, and Kerry up ahead. The three girls who attacked me on my first night in this godforsaken place.

“What the fuck are they doing here?” I murmur to no one in particular.

Camilla answers. “Unfortunately, they’re friends with Elias.”

“I don’t like this,” I say.

Adrianna squeezes my arm. “Don’t worry. You’ve got us now.”

They’re standing in front of a large portrait of a woman. When they see us, their eyes narrow. “Look who it is,” Kerry says, sneering at us.

Jeanie steps forward, eyes moving between us. “When Elias told me he’d invited you, I thought it was some sick joke.”

Natalya squares her shoulders and lifts her chin. “I’m not sure why the fuck he invited you.”

Jeanie shakes her head. “Come on then. Who’s going first?”

“After you,” Camilla says.

Jeanie narrows her eyes before pulling at the portrait on the wall. To my surprise, it swings open to reveal a laundry shoot. She glares at the four of us before climbing in and disappearing. Her two friends, Kerry and Anita, disappear after her.

“What the hell is going on?” I ask as Camilla moves to climb in after them.

She glances at me. “The laundry shoot takes us to the back exit of SA, where the minibus is waiting.” With that, she launches herself after the three girls.

“If I’d known those three were coming, I’d never have agreed,” I say to Natalya.

She rolls her eyes. “They’re all talk, no bite.”

I glare at her. “Tell that to my leg.” I nod toward the leg they stabbed.

“Sorry, they did a number on you.”

Adrianna is the next to climb in and disappear.

“But that’s because they fear you.” She nods toward the shoot. “You next.”

I give her an incredulous look, as I thought I might weasel my way out by going. “I’ll go last.”

Natalya shakes her head. “No, you won’t.”

I grind my teeth and haul myself into the shoot, glancing down it nervously. “Are you sure this is—”

Natalya shoves me, pushing me down the shoot.

I scream as I fall down the slide into a bundle of dirty laundry at the bottom. “Gross,” I say, as I quickly jump out of it.

“Did you scream?” Camilla asks.

I shrug. “Natalya pushed me.”

Adrianna laughs. “Classic, Natalya.” She gives me a pitiful look. “She did the same to me the first time we used this escape route.”

Camilla looks sheepish. “That might be my fault. I did it to her on her first time.”

We both laugh as Natalya appears from the shoot, quickly jumping out of the laundry.
