Winnie had no idea what was happening to her.

Her body was completely immobile, and she lay there, questioning everything. Wasn't she already dead? How could her eyes still open?

She vaguely remembered someone pulling her out just before the explosion.

"You're awake?" A deep, familiar voice broke the silence.

Winnie's eyes widened in shock as the man's face came into focus. It was him!

The man nonchalantly patted her shoulder. "Focus on recovering. I still have plans for you."

Her pupils trembled. What did he mean by that? What was this man planning?
