A strange man

Hera’s Pov.

I sat on a cold metal bench in a cell void of light. The cell wasn’t only dark in terms of lighting, it was also dark because of the people there, people who made my skin crawl. I didn’t belong in a place like this.

The air was thick with the smell of sweat and fear. Well, sweat from the bodies of the other women here and fear from me. But somehow, I preferred being here than facing Eggust.

My mind raced with thoughts of the past few hours, replaying every moment like a bad movie you somehow got stuck on. I had been here for a day now but it felt like eternity.

How did my life spiral out of control so quickly? One minute I was at the top of my game and the next, I was trapped in this nightmare, which had only just begun.

I thought about my family, my aunt, Mia, even Isla. were they safe? Had they been released from wherever they were being held?

And David…. What about him too? My heart ached with worry, as I thought of all the people suffer
