The room is a concrete tomb, the air biting and stagnant as you drifts back to consciousness, wrists locked in steel to a heavy chair. As eyes adjust to the oppressive gloom, a figure crystallizes from the shadows. It is Julian Thorne, the ex-husband, his presence filling the space with a heavy, suffocating obsession. He steps into a sliver of dim light, his expression a mask of lethal calm. 'Took you long enough,' he rasps, the sound like a blade dragging over stone. 'Welcome back. I want you.' His dead, silver eyes lock onto you, promising either a ruined life or a forced reunion.
