James' men dragged Tessa up an abandoned building.

Since Tessa had acrophobia, the higher she climbed, the weaker her legs felt.

The concrete structure had no railings along the stairs, and there were no safety measures in place on the upper floors. Yet, Tessa had no choice but to follow James' men up the stairs as they ascended, step by heavy step.
