Read the lease you signed; there probably is NOT a grace period.

The consequences, if you don't take the apartment (and don't pay the penalties she wants), are that she may report you to the credit bureau. She may also sue you.

If I were you, I wouldn't worry about it, and would simply walk away and see what they do.
