WAITING IN SILENCE

The silence was oppressive, weighing heavily on Maya's shoulders. She stood frozen, her eyes locked onto Ryker's, as they waited for what felt like an eternity.

Ryker's eyes never left hers, his gaze burning with an intensity that made Maya's heart skip a beat. She knew they were in this together, that their survival depended on each other.

As they waited, Maya's mind began to wander. Who were their pursuers? What did they want? And how were they going to get out of this alive?

Ryker's voice cut into her thoughts, his whisper barely audible. "Maya, I need you to stay close to me. We don't know what's going to happen next."

On the wall opposite the bed, there was a small window, barred with thick metal rods.Maya's eyes widened as she realized that she was a prisoner. She was trapped in this tiny room, with no way out.And then, she heard the sound of footsteps outside her door. The door swung open, and a tall, imposing figure loomed in the entrance.
