Semin stirred her eyes. She felt something cold and hard beneath her. Slowly opening her eyes, she tried to scan around but her eyelids were heavy due to the drugs. Her hands and feet were sprawled in an X-shape, tied to long posts. Immediately, fear crept up into her heart.
"W-where am I?" she stammered. "Is anyone there?"
The place was too dark for her to see properly. Only a single thread of moonlight came in through a hole on the ceiling above her. Squinting her eyes she tried to make out where she was. It looked like some kind of sauna but she was placed on a stone block in the middle of the room. What was a stone block doing in a sauna?
"Help!" she cried out. "Someone please help!"
But there was no one there to hear her pleas. She tried to move her arms and legs but they were tied very tightly to the poles.
"Help!" she screamed. "Someone please!"
"No one will help you my dear."
A voice came from the dark shadows, making her jump.
