Addy POV
Time blurred into a relentless stream of fear and uncertainty, each moment dragging on like an eternity as I languished in captivity. The walls of my prison seemed to close in around me, suffocating me with their oppressive weight.
But amidst the despair, a flicker of hope remained—a stubborn refusal to surrender to the darkness. I clung to the memories of Matthew, his love a beacon of light during the storm. Every beat of my heart echoed his name, a silent prayer for his safety, for our reunion. I refused to believe that this was the end—that somehow, someway, we would find our way back to each other.
