Chapter 227

When Janet woke up again, she found herself in a pitch–black room.

Actually, she couldn’t even be sure if this was a room, since it was so dark here, without a single light source for her to study the surroundings.

She tried moving her arms and heard the clattering noise of shackles.

She was chained to the wall.

She cleared her throat and said tentatively, “…Hello?”

Her voice echoed in the quiet space. Nobody answered.

The darkness was dreadful. And the imagination of what could be within that darkness was even worse.

Janet bit her lips, trying to calm herself down.

When Westin knocked her over, she thought she would wake up to some horrible scenes, a dungeon filled with torture devices perhaps, or the Elder Council packed with people ready to sentence her.

Yet instead, she was locked here, alone, without a single person by her side. “…Westin! Are you there?” she cried again.

Yet again, nobody answered.

She curled her body up on the cold hard ground, spacing out.

What was Westin trying to do here?

Was this the horrible torment that he was talking about?

Then she started to think about Daran.

What was Daran doing right now? He must be anxious like hell. Would he try to rescue her? But he still couldn’t cross that damn forest…Fuck…

She sat there, wondering about all kinds of things.

There was no way to tell the time. Hours passed, no, or maybe just some ten minutes, she couldn’t tell….

Janet fell asleep again with her heart filled with anxiety.

When she woke up again, nothing had changed.

It was still pitch–black.

And the darkness was starting to drive her nuts..

“Hello?! Can anyone hear me?” she cried, rattling her shackles and chains, “Westin! Clemente! Where the fuck are you!”

Yet again, nobody answered.

She shivered, involuntarily.

Her throat was so dry as though she just swallowed a burning coal.
