she gradually adjusted to the brightness and took in her surroundings.

Alicia was handcuffed to a bed surrounded by high-end medical equipment.

Alicia's mind raced as she pieced together the frightening scenario. Her gaze shifted to the surgical light

overhead, its ominous glare confirming her worst fears.
