Returning to my rightful place

I was sitting on the boat with my hands tied. I was struggling to untie myself. But it was all in vain. I was screaming. My clothes were soaked with sweat.

“Alison, Alison, Alison"

I had the impression that I was in a tiny boat cabin. I attempted to get up, but I was unable to do so due to the rope tied to my feet. My throat was dry. I burst into tears.

“Let her go."

I screamed. I gave my head a nod. “It is all my fault. I should not have agreed to this."

I again tried to free myself. I stopped when I heard voices outside the cabin. “Do not hurt her. I will do what you ask me to do. Please let her go,” I said while sobbing.

In the interim, a man entered the room. He was Elais. He looked into my eyes, and in the next moment, I felt pain in my jaw because he punched me. “Ahhh, please let me go,” I said with a breaking voice.
