I don't remember much after I blacked out, my head was throbbing. I tried to move my hands to wipe what I think is blood dripping down my forehead, but my hands are tied behind the chair.
It was dark, pitch black. "Somebody help!" I shout. I heard movement from the corner of the room.
"Shh, don't scream," someone whispers. I shot my head in the direction the voice came from. I can hear footsteps coming towards me. I can't make out who it is in the darkness. All of a sudden, I feel my hands being placed on mine. My heart started beating faster than ever. The grip on my arms tightened, as I let out a little scream.
Inches away from my face, I feel their hot breath against my skin
"You're finally all mine," the voice says.
