Abducted

Thirty minutes ago.

After Daniel left the house, Linnea picked up one of his medical books and began to read it. She was still flipping through the pages when a sudden noise caught her attention.

"Daniel?" she called. "Is that you? Are you back?" But when she received no response, she stood up and walked to the sitting room.

"Daniel? Are you back?" She approached his door and knocked.

"Daniel," she continued knocking as she called out.

Is he not home? Growing tired of knocking, she opened the door and went in.

"Daniel?" After searching the room, she found no trace of him.

What happened? I clearly heard something. She walked to the front door and, after a thorough check, returned to her room. She grabbed the book and lay on the bed.

Linnea became immersed in the book, but another disturbing sound shifted her attention.
