KATERINA'S POV
Katerina's eyes fluttered open, abruptly ripped from the depths of her slumber by the grating creak of the heavy metal door.
The sharp sound reverberated through her senses, jolting her into a state of immediate alertness. Panic surged through her veins like an electric current, flooding her body with adrenaline as she found herself trapped within the vice-like grip of two hunters.
A surge of primal instinct coursed through Katerina, urging her to fight, to resist with every ounce of strength she possessed. She writhed and thrashed against the unyielding restraint, her muscles straining against the firm grasp of her captors. Her mind, clouded with a mixture of fear and determination, screamed for escape, for liberation from the impending threat that loomed before her.
