'She will forget everything right?'
'That's what electroshocks do...'
Before those words could make sense, an electric shock ripped through Ella's body, brutal and blinding.
Her body convulsed. Limbs jerked against unseen restraints. Searing pain ripped through her skull as her body arched and teeth clenched.
She tried to scream but nothing came out.
Again.
And again.
It kept hitting again. Harder.
Suddenly, Ella felt a ripping pain on her lips. Her eyes snapped open.
Drenched in cold sweat, Ella laid on the bed, panting heavily.
The moment she opened her eyes, her eyes met a pair of onyx eyes and the sharp pain on her lips intensified for a moment before it dispersed.
Adrian released her lips.
"I…"
Before she could muster any words, she was yanked into a strong embrace.
Adrian hugged her so tightly that she was suffocated.
But oddly enough, it comforted something in her. She could not bring herself to push him away. She did not want to.
