Katie’s POV
I was beginning to give up hope hanging in the dungeon. My shoulders were numb from hanging by chains. I was only let off twice a day for meals and to use the toilet, which was basically a bucket. I was then beaten and slapped by Beta Frank Bello before being strung back up. Every time he would laugh as he strung me up while I wept.
“Should have just fallen in line, girl.” He would snark before leaving me hanging in the darkness.
I had somehow managed to sleep in this prone position, and my dreams were nothing but visions of destruction. I was seeing everyone I loved lying dead and dying strewn about a field soaked in blood. I didn’t know how long I had been down here, but I stopped counting.
