Janet hated having to be in the same room with this woman and not say anything but a lot of things had her thinking of the past few hours when she had been awake.
She looked at the woman and decided that this was her chance to escape.
After all, she knew she could take on the maid. The maid looked older than her but she also looked small and a bit fat. She was sure she could take on the maid and take her down.
"I'll be leaving," she said to her feet just as the maid grabbed her by the hand and refused to let her go. "Gosh, you have a wonderful grip for a stockily built woman. Let me go."
"Like I said, I won't be doing that until sir Alastor returns. Now please if you would…"
Janet broke out of the woman's grip as she ran to the door to open it only to find the door locked.
"Why won't you open?" she strained to open the door.
