Sinclair's pov
Alone in the desolate room, I paced back and forth, consumed by dark thoughts. My mind raced with visions of Father's wrath descending upon Blair. He'd seize this chance to blame her for my disappearance, tormenting her innocence.
A burning vow formed within me: if I find even a scratch on Blair's body, vengeance will be merciless. The goddess has pity on those responsible for my captivity. Places would burn down.
I glared at the steel door, envisioning my escape. Confidence surged through me - I could break free and accelerate my release. Taking a few strides back, I positioned myself, then sprinted toward the door with all my might. My shoulder and arms absorbed the impact, but the door refused to yield.
The force of the collision sent me crashing backward, and I landed awkwardly on the chair that had once held me captive. The wooden frame shattered beneath me, its fragments scraping against the cold floor.
