door opened. “I don’t want to pee on the bed.”
    He stared at her for a long few moments and finally stepped towards her. A jingle of keys and a snick of the lock and her hand was free d. A brief moment of anger hit her and she punched at him hard, connecting to the side of his face, knocking him backwards.
    She bolted from the bed , but only got about two steps before he caught her by the back of the shirt. She kept her feet digging, but he had a firm grip and yanked her backwards. She spun around with her elbow, connecting into his head and he let go with a long moan.
    Heading towards the front door, fingers reaching for the knob , she felt him close the gap in a hurry. He slammed into her from behind, crushing her into the closed door.
    A gasp of air escaped her body as he threw her to the ground. She tried to roll away , but he grabbed her by the hair, held her head to the floor, and sat on her midsection. There was no way she was moving, she could hardly breathe.
    He put a leather -clad hand around her throat and forced her head from moving. She threw a wild punch at his crotch and connected hard; he groaned and took hold of both her hands and pinned them to the floor. But it put his face close to her and she threw her head up into his face, head-butting him right in the nose, he yelled and fell off her. Scrambling to her feet, she headed to the door again, twisted the knob and throw the door open.
    Plunging into the night, she started running down the long driveway in a full-blown sprint. Mid-stride she felt something bite her on the lower back. It felt like a bee, but when she reached back, she felt the dart and quickly pulled it out of her skin.
    Though she was running as fast as she could , everything was moving so slowly. She heard footsteps coming fast, but couldn’t tell from which direction. Everything was so hazy. Within the next few seconds, someone tackled her hard and pinned her to the ground.
    Emily squirmed and struggled with everything she had , but he was much bigger and heavier, and although the feeling from whatever was in that dart was wearing off quickly, he just sat there until she tired herself out.
    With no fight left, she let her arms slump to the dirt. She was not one to take defeat lying down. It made her mad, made her want to fight more. But there was nothing left except pure exhaustion.
    Several minutes later , he got up and yanked her by the arm, spun her around and walked her from behind with her arm bent in a hard angle in her back, pushing her back towards the cabin.
    Inside, h e ripped open the door and shoved her into the bathroom. It was a huge relief that he didn’t stand in the room with her. It was dark, but she managed to find the toilet. She didn’t even really have to go before, but she did now.
    After washing her hands, she felt around the room for a weapon or something , but there was nothing except a towel. She dried her hands, wiped her face, and started to resign herself to the fact she was doomed. There was no window to climb out of and the only option was to open the door and face him again.
    Emily pulled the door open . He stood on the other side, this time he had a gun prominently displayed in the air. He walked her back to the room, cuffed her to the bed, and closed the door.
    She didn’t want to sleep, but after a while she closed her eyes.

 
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Chapter 6
     
     
    Lying in the bed staring at the ceiling, a blast of morning invaded through the window and caused her to come out of the daze. Initially, it was a nice feeling, the warmth of the sunrays, but reality crashed down when she saw him sitting in the chair gawking at her.
    Emily gasped and sat up. She didn’t even know she’d fallen asleep, but he must have snuck into the room at some point. He just tilted his white-masked face and continued watching her. It made her incredibly uncomfortable and afraid. His face wasn’t visible, his expressions hidden by the cheap plastic mask. But
