She couldn’t open it at all since it had been installed with a fingerprint lock! What’s more, there weren’t any vents or windows in there! Sure, she could break the thin walls or door, but that would surely wake the man up… Damn it all!
Just as she was wondering how to proceed with all this, she smelled a familiar scent… one that belonged to an aphrodisiac…! Looking around, she quickly realized that the man had placed a tiny incense burner in the corner of the room! And it was lit!
Though she was able to easily put it out, the damage had been done, and she was already starting to feel her body weaken. To think that it had taken her this long to notice…! Knowing that she couldn’t afford to continue staying here, she quickly began tapping on the door… and thankfully, Jacob was able to hear her signal.
Once he was right beside the door, he was prompted to whisper, “How did it go?”
“Good, but please try to open the door while he’s still out…!”
It was then that Jacob saw the fingerprint lock… and after squinting a little, he quickly began searching the house for a screwdriver. With any luck, he’d be able to pry the door open without too much sound!
As this was happening, Ellen found her body getting increasingly warm… and as much as she loved the idea of drenching herself in cold water to snap her out of it, she was worried that that would wake Joseph up! Just as she was praying that Jacob would hurry up, things took a change for the worse.
Groaning as he got up, it took him a while to register what was happening… and when he saw Ellen standing by the door, the infuriated man howled, “You…! You tricked me…!”
