Steven’s POV
“Get inside!”
The guard shoved me hard into the cell. I stumbled forward, nearly losing my balance before I caught myself against the damp wall.
The cell smelled like rot and metal. It was loud with shouts, banging, and mocking laughter from every corner.
The guard smirked.
“We have a new member here. Say hi, everyone!”
Voices rose from the other cells. Some men stepped closer to their bars, grinning at me like wolves watching a fresh prey.
“Don’t even think about starting trouble here,” one of them said, “We’re all under control. This is one of the Majesty’s operations.”
I didn’t answer. I just stood there, breathing hard, with chains around my wrists.
The guard turned to me, his eyes locked on mine.
“If you try something stupid, we won’t hesitate to kill you.”
