Chapter 1: Introduction
Victor Turner opened his eyes and found himself in a dimly lit room, surrounded by medical equipment and a faint aroma of antiseptic cleanser. His throbbing head screamed from the night before, filled with hazy memories of a party where he had indulged in copious amounts of alcohol, dancing with women, and enjoying the company of friends. Now, draped in a hospital gown, his hands cuffed to the bed, he felt utterly defenseless.
A chill crawled down his spine as he glanced around the room, taking in its sterile atmosphere. The realization dawned upon him—he was trapped, held captive against his will by an enigmatic figure named Dr. Sarah Thompson.
As Victor's heart raced with fear, he attempted to regain some sense of control over the situation. "Who are you?" he demanded.
Dr. Thompson emerged from the shadows, her long black hair cascading down her back like a waterfall.
