Chapter 29: You Can't Break
Warning; This Chapter Might Be Sensitive to some people!
Danielle woke with a stabbing pain in her mouth. Her head ached and her eyes felt drowsy.
For a second she did not know where she was. Then the smell hit her. Wet earth and smoke, some cold-like metal.
A rough hand grabbed her hair and pulled her upright.
"Auch!" She yelped and blinked hard…
Ethan was looking at her closely.
"You're awake," he squatted closer and laughed. "Good. I wanted to see you look at me."
Danielle tried to move but ropes bit into her wrists. She was tied to a chair.
The ropes felt rough and had left red marks. She tasted blood from her lip.
Ethan pushed a hand under her chin and forced her face up. "Look at me…Look at the man who ruined your life. Look at the man who killed your peace."
