TamaraThe next day felt different. Not because anything had changed, but because I had.There was a stillness in the air. Not the peaceful kind—this one felt heavy, like a warning. I couldn’t sit still. My chest kept tightening every few minutes, like my body knew something I hadn’t figured out yet.I kept glancing at the door like it owed me something. Freedom, maybe. Or a reason to keep holding on. I didn’t even wait for Sean to call me. I went downstairs, already dressed, pretending like I needed fresh air. I had no plan, just instinct. My mind was louder than anything around me.Sean was in the living room, sitting like he always did—arms folded, back straight, watching a football replay like it mattered. The screen lit his face, but he wasn’t really watching. He was just existing. Like me.“I want to go out,” I said quietly, standing at the edge of the room.Sean didn’t even look up right away. “Where to?”“Anywhere.”He eyed me, squinting slightly. “You need to breathe, huh?”I

TamaraI woke up slowly, the ceiling unfamiliar. White. Bright. Too quiet. My body ached like I’d been tossed off a cliff, every inch of me humming with dull pain. My ribs throbbed. My lips were dry. Breathing felt like chewing on glass. I blinked again, trying to adjust to the light. The smell was off — lemony, clean, sterile. Not a hospital. Too quiet for a hospital. No beeping machines.

His guest room, specifically. I recognized it now. The one with nothing personal — no flowers, no frames, just silence and control. Everything about it screamed him.The memories came rushing back all at once. The alley. The men. My screams. The way I fought. The moment I knew I was going to die. My chest tightened. I gripped the sheets and tried to calm myself, but my hands were trembling.Then the door opened.Sean ste

LeonThe metal door groaned as I pushed it open, the weight of it heavy under my hand. The scent hit me first. Blood. Sweat. The sharp, sour tang of fear thick in the cold air. The kind of smell that clung to skin, to clothes, to the walls. The kind of smell that never left.I stepped into the underground room, my boots echoing against the concrete floor. The light above flickered faintly, casting shadows over the two pieces of shit chained to the wall. Their arms stretched high, their shirts torn, their faces already swollen and bruised. The metallic rattle of the chains was the only sound they could manage now.I rolled my sleeves up slowly. My knuckles were still raw from earlier, but I didn’t give a fuck. Not tonight. Not after what almost happened to her.I stood in front of them, eyes narrowing. “You’ve had enough time to think,” I said, voice low. “Now you’re going to tell me. Who the fuck sent you?”One of them groaned, barely lifting his head. The one with the scar. The one w
