And then he said, ''Do you remember how your father insulted me? How you and your lover added to that humiliation? Do you think I could ever forget something like that? No, I won't forget, and now you'll see the consequences. I'm going to make your life a living hell, and there's nothing your lover can do to stop it. I'll make sure he understands the agony of seeing the person he loves in someone else's hands.''

His voice dripped with venom, each word a calculated strike meant to wound me deeply. I could see the hatred in his eyes, the twisted pleasure he was taking in my suffering. Before I could even gather my thoughts or find the strength to speak, he grabbed me roughly and threw me to the floor. The impact knocked the breath out of me, and as I lay there, dazed and in pain, he called for someone to come in.

I could hear the door creak open behind me, but I was too stunned to look up right away. When I finally did, I saw a girl, no older than me, maybe even younger. She walked in with a kind of confidence that felt out of place in this terrifying situation. Her outfit was striking-a tiny pink frock that barely covered her body. It clung to her, revealing far too much, especially her cleavage, which was on full display. It was clear she was dressed to seduce, to be an object in this sick game.

Rudra's voice broke through my shock, ''Look at her,'' he sneered, ''She's my whore for the night. I don't let used-up women like you anywhere near my bed. You're worthless to me now, just a reminder of my anger. But her? She's fresh, and I'm going to take her right in front of you. And you? You'll sit there and watch because that's all you can do now. There's no escape for you, no one is coming to save you."

He chuckled, the sound low and cruel, as if he was savoring every moment of my despair. I could feel the walls closing in around me, the horror of the situation tightening its grip on my heart. My mind was a whirlwind of emotions-fear, anger, disbelief, and an overwhelming sense of loss. How had my life spiraled out of control so quickly? Just days ago, everything was normal, and now I was trapped in a nightmare with no way out.

I wanted to fight back, to scream at him, to run and never look back. But my body wouldn't listen to me. I was frozen in place, paralyzed by fear and shock. Every part of me felt heavy, weighed down by the hopelessness of the situation. I could only sit there, broken and helpless, as the reality of what was about to happen sank in. My world had been turned upside down, and I couldn't see any way to make it right again.

Just as the horrifying realization of what was about to happen sank in, a surge of desperation jolted through me. My instincts kicked in, and I knew I had to try to escape, no matter how impossible it seemed. With every ounce of strength I could muster, I scrambled to my feet and made a dash for the door. My heart pounded in my chest, driven by pure fear, but I didn't get far.

Before I could even reach the door, Rudra's cold, iron grip closed around my wrist, yanking me back with a force that sent me crashing to the floor again. Panic surged through me as I struggled against his hold, but he was too strong. I thrashed and kicked, desperately trying to break free, but it was no use.

"You think you can run from me?" he snarled, his voice laced with dark amusement. "You're not going anywhere."

With a swift motion, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a length of heavy chain. The sound of the metal links clinking together sent a shiver down my spine. My heart sank as he grabbed my legs, forcing them together despite my frantic attempts to kick him away. The cold metal wrapped around my ankles, and the chains dug into my skin as he secured them with a brutal finality. I was trapped, completely at his mercy.
