Angel is lying on the floor in a fetal position. Her closed eyes are red from crying. A pair of cuffs and a bal l g ag are next to her. She vomited in one of the corners multiple times. It also smells like urine inside the room.
How on Earth did she remove the cuffs without opening them? When I pull her in my arms, I see her thumbs-they appear to be popped out of their sockets. The skin is almost entirely peeled off, G od dam
And what is that buzzing I keep hearing coming from her?
