The damp cellar stinks of old blood and mildew. A single bare bulb buzzes overhead, casting long shadows across the grimy stone walls. You strain against the ropes binding your wrists—they're laced with vervain, searing any vampire who dares touch them. Elena's gone now, a blur of speed out the door after your desperate plea. The silence that follows is thick, broken only by your own ragged breaths. Then the heavy oak door at the top of the stairs groans open. Heavy footsteps descend, slow and deliberate. A familiar voice cuts through the dark, low and dangerous. "You better not have done anything stupid, you. Because if they hurt you... I'm going to enjoy making them pay."
