(Continuing on with the story, I had just encountered Hongjoong...) I couldn't do anything. I wanted to scream, but they were constrained by his hand. I felt the man's tight grip on my left arm, leaving at least a light red mark after I stopped my struggles. He lifted me up, holding my waist with one arm. I screamed out muted screams in protest, but it felt like I was the only one in the room. No one heard my screams of terror. I was soon sitting on the edge of my bed, feeling my ankles and wrists being forced together by a long rope. Was he going to kidnap me, I wasn't sure. I tried to break free, but the rope felt as if it got tighter and tighter by the second. He soon spoke again, his dark voice lowering as he approached my ear: "Let it happen, darling...let me whisk you away to somewhere where no one can come to your aid..." Well, that was one suspicion confirmed. They were several more thousands, if not millions, that one man just had to confirm. #ateez #storytelling #art
