Everything went black again. I woke up and saw that I was back in this dark room but not chained this time. I stood up slowly, still feeling a little groggy from whatever had knocked me out.

As I looked at Aamon, I could feel a sense of unease settling over me. I knew that he was not to be trusted, and that I needed to be careful.

"What do you want?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.

I didn't believe him for a second. I knew that he had some ulterior motive, some hidden agenda that he wasn't sharing with me.

"I'm fine," I said, taking a step back. "I just want to get out of here."

Aamon's smile faded, and I could see the anger in his expression. "You're not going anywhere," he said, his voice low and dangerous.

I could feel my heart pounding in my chest as I looked at him. I knew that I was in trouble, and that I needed to find a way out of this situation.
