Resolve

Aurelie **** her face to remain stoic until the men left and the door slammed shut and locked behind them. Whatever lay before her, she was determined not to whimper or beg in front of her boss and increase his perverse satisfaction.

She tried to **** her mind to focus. There must be a means of escape, if not now at some point in the future. They evidently meant to keep her for some time...keep her and do things to her...part of her despaired. She must be ready for the chance when it came. Ready to seize the opportunity and take it, no matter what the cost.

With that thought came another. She was hungry.
