The compound itself was unlike anything we had ever seen before. It was military–style, with imposing buildings and strict, regimented lines of soldiers marthing in perfect formation over in one of the fields.
Everywhere we looked, we saw armed guards patrolling the perimeter, their expressions cold and impassive as they watched us with suspicion.
But what struck us the most was the absence of females…
In a place dominated by men, we stood out like sore thumbs, our presence drawing curious glances and whispered conversations from the soldiers around us. It was clear that we were of place out here, unwelcome intruders in a world that was not meant for
- us.
As we made our way through the corridors, each sound echoed loudly in the silence, the harsh clang of boots on concrete reverberating through the air like a warning.
Suddenly, without warning, Erin stumbled over a protruding piece of the floor, her foot catching on the uneven ground. Before she could regain her balance, a Russian soldier appeared out of nowhere, his expression twisted with anger at the perceived error.
He moved swiftly, grabbing Erin roughly by the arm and hauling her to her feet with a forceful jerk that elicited a cry of pain from her lips. His words were sharp and harsh as he berated her in Russian, his voice echoing with authority as he reprimanded her for the small misstep – coming as close to her face as possible.
Erin winced under his grip, her eyes wide with fear as she struggled to understand his words. I moved to intervene, but another Russian soldier stepped forward, blocking my path with a menacing glare that left me rooted to the spot with a sense of helplessness.
For a moment, time seemed to stand still as we stood there, caught in the grip of the Russian soldiers‘ cruelty with both Marcus and Victor standing aside watching. The air was thick with tension, the weight of their authority pressing down on us like a heavy weight as they asserted their dominance over us.
They eventually let us both go, before Erin and I were escorted to our accommodations – if they could even be called that. The rooms we were shown to resemble more closely to prison cells than anything else, with bare concrete walls and two single mat style beds on the damn floor…
As we stepped inside, the heavy metal door clanged shut behind us, sealing us off from the outside world wit shiver down my spine. The room felt cold and claustrophobic, the air heavy with the scent of mildew and despair.

I exchanged a worried glance with Erin, her eyes mirroring my own sense of unease. It was clear that we were now stuck here without choice, and the realisation sent a chill coursing through my veins.
With a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach, I approached the narrow mat and sank down onto it, the hard surface offering little comfort against the uncertainty that lay ahead. Erin joined me, sitting silently beside me as we huddled together in the dim light of the room.
Outside, the sounds of the compound continued unabated, the harsh clang of metal against metal echoing through the walls like a constant reminder of our captivity. It was a stark contrast to the world we had known before, a world filled with freedom and possibility, now replaced by confinement and fear.
“Tess this is much worse than I could have even imagined! Are we prisoners here? What if they just brought us here to poke fun at us for being from a different country? What if they torture us!” Erin preaks down, her words coming out in a choked sob as my own eyes water from hearing her worry.
“We… just have t–to wait and see Erin! Maybe they are just keeping reason, as Erin shakes her head and huddles closer to me.

Chapter 110
Despite the grim surroundings and the uncertainty of our fate, a small glimmer of hope remained alive within me. No matter what challenges lay ahead, I knew that we would face them together, united in our determination to overcome whatever obstacles stood in our way or at least we will both try…
