The streets of Duskhaven were bustling with people, and Sophie felt her body jostle with the movement of the vehicle. As she groggily opened her eyes, a gust of cold air hit her, sending shivers down her spine.
The moment those two men had sprayed her, she'd instinctively held her breath but still accidentally inhaled a bit of the sedative. Fortunately, she woke up quickly, and she could think of a way to escape.
The vehicle's rumbling, and the dwindling sound of other cars indicated she was indeed in a vehicle, moving away from the city center of Duskhaven.
Soon, Sophie caught a whiff of the faint, briny scent of the sea from outside the vehicle, alerting her instantly.
The seaside? What were these two planning by taking her to the seaside?
Sophie tried to free her hands tied with rope, but her eyes were blindfolded, leaving her unaware of her surroundings. A man's voice then broke the silence, "We're almost there. Let's stop here."
"She's quite a looker, how unfortunate."
The car screeched to a halt, and Sophie tried to calm her racing heart as the two men lifted her out of the car.
Her hands and feet were bound, her mouth sealed with tape, and her eyes covered with a black cloth. Hearing the sound of the waves, Sophie guessed she was at the Duskhaven docks where she and Odie had arrived the night before.
'Ding ding—'
At that moment, Jake's phone rang, and noticing it was a call from his boss, he quickly answered, "Mark, Mark, why are you calling me?"
"Cut the chatter, where are you?"
"I... I’ve got a job, currently at the docks..."mJake couldn't finish his sentence before the phone went silent.
Ricky, standing beside him, pointed at Jake's phone. "Your phone's dead..."
Jake looked at his phone, realizing the battery was dead. "Damn it!"
