Chapter 10: chapter 10
As the night wore on, Eliana's memories grew hazy. She vaguely recalled Xavier's charming smile and the way he made her laugh. But as the room began to spin, she realized something was terribly wrong.

As she tried to piece together the events of the previous night, Royalty burst into the room, looking frantic. "Elly, I think we're in trouble," she said, her voice shaking.
Eliana's heart sank as she realized the gravity of their situation. They had been drugged and taken advantage of. But by whom, and why?

"Hello?" she said, her voice cautious.
"Good morning, Eliana," a smooth voice replied. "I hope you're feeling well after last night's... adventures."
Eliana's eyes narrowed. "Who is this?" she demanded.
The voice chuckled. "All will be revealed in due time, my dear. For now, just know that you're in our debt. And we always collect our debts."
The line went dead, leaving Eliana and Royalty staring at each other in alarm. What had they gotten themselves into?
