Born Lucky

CLICK!

Cyril was on the ground when the door slowly opened, her face wounded and bleeding, her hair disheveled. Her breaths came in ragged gasps, each one a struggle. 

She tried to lift her head, to see who had just entered the room, but her vision was blurred and unfocused, making it impossible to make out any details.

Her once bright green eyes were now clouded with pain and exhaustion. She winced as she tried to move, her body aching all over. 

Every movement hurt, but she forced herself to try to stay awake. She needed to know who had come in.

Was it someone to help her or someone who wanted to hurt her more. 

The room around her seemed to spin, and she could barely make out the shape of the person standing in the doorway. 

Her mind was full of questions, but she couldn't speak because her mouth was covered with a ball gag. She tried to move her jaw, to say something, but the gag muffled any sound she made.
