But now she was in a small, cramped room with concrete walls and no windows. She tried to get up, but her arms and legs were bound tightly to the metal bed frame. Panic set in as she realized she has been transferred to another strange cell. Suddenly, the door to the room opened, and a tall, muscular man walked in.

Soon enough, there were Liam’s panicked shouts and then the sounds of people in heavy boots running past the cupboard. Then everything went quiet. His heart pounding, Jules got out of the cupboard and quickly headed to the basement. He had no idea how much time he had: probably ten minutes, if he was lucky. It should be enough. It had to be.
