Third–Person Pov

Marlene’s eyelids fluttered open, her head throbbing dully as she tried to make sense of her surroundings. As her vision cleared, she realized with a jolt that her hands and feet were bound, restricting her movements, and a gag was firmly in place over her mouth, muffling any attempt to cry

out.

Panic surged through her as she struggled against her restraints. Her eyes darted frantically around the dimly lit space, and she immediately picked up on the fact that she was in a warehouse. The familiar surroundings sent a chill down her spine, and it dawned on her that the vast space, filled with towering stacks of crates and machinery, had the unmistakable mark of Kayden’s construction company logo.

The realization that she was trapped in one of his warehouses filled Marlene with a mix of fear and anger.

Frustration boiled in her as she tugged at the ropes binding

Kayden’s betrayal hit her hard, but Marlene knew she had to stay calm and think clearly if she hoped to survive.

She had expected Kayden to pull something sooner or later, but being held captive in such a manner had caught her off guard.

As she sat in silence, her mind in turmoil, the sound of the warehouse door creaking open shattered the stillness, sending a jolt of apprehension through her. Marlene’s heart raced as she strained to catch the faintest sound, her senses on high alert as she listened to the distant murmur of voices drawing nearer.

Adrenaline coursed through her veins as she braced herself for the arrival of her captors; her breath was shallow and rapid as she feigned unconsciousness, and her eyes squeezed shut in a desperate bid to deceive whoever was coming her way.

The footsteps grew louder, echoing off the cold concrete floor of the warehouse, drawing closer with each passing moment. Marlene’s heart hammered in her chest as she fought

to control her fear.

And then, as the footsteps drew near, the voices became

clearer, their tones hushed but distinct.

“Are you sure she’s still out cold with no chances of waking up anytime soon?” A gruff voice rumbled, making Marlene’s

blood run cold.

“Yeah, she is. As you can see, she’s not moving. Knocked her out good,” another voice replied, this one smoother, with a hint of malice that sent a chill down Marlene’s spine.

Marlene’s mind raced as she tried to piece together what was happening. Who were these people? Were they working for Kayden, or was there someone else involved in this?

She momentarily wondered if Amber could be behind this, but brushed the thought away almost as quickly as it came to mind There was no way Amber would be sinister enough to do something like this.
