Alex’s POV
I wake up in a daze, my senses slowly returning to me. The first thing I notice is the overwhelming feeling of restriction. I try to move, but it's as if I'm being held down. Panic rises within me as I try to call upon my wolf, but there's nothing. It's like a part of me is missing, leaving me feeling vulnerable and weak.
I squint, trying to adjust to the darkness that surrounds me. The putrid stench of urine and mould fills my nostrils, making me gag with disgust. Where am I? How did I end up in this wretched place? I don't remember anything, my memories hazy and fragmented, but my head throbs with pain, a constant reminder of my dire situation.
