ROSALITH
Vladimir wasn't joking even though I had hoped he was. I had no choice but to listen to him. Holding Penny as a hostage, I can't hate him less. I walked to the restroom and locked it. I am sure he can even walk in on me when I am bathing if he is willing to so I can't risk it.
My only hope is for Penny to still be alive after all this, because if she is not, then Vladimir is going to pay for it with his life. I am not even sure if I will touch a strand of his hair.
However, for now, where things are uncertain, I had to do as he said. I need to listen to him for once even if my whole life is against this. I got rid of my clothes and stepped under the shower.
I turned on the shower and let the cold water spread across my skin. Right now, this is the only thing I need to wake up
