35. Beg Her

…

Haley's eyelids fluttered, and gradually, the darkness turned into a blurry white.

Squinting her eyes, she moved her limbs, struggling to sit up.

Why did her body feel sore?

The room was all walls and no doors. There wasn't a single window either.

How was she gonna get out?

Who brought her here?
