Lila was afraid she was going to have a heart attack. The beating inside the cage of her ribs was so fierce that she could imagine the heart just giving out, running out of power like an over used battery. As the gun pressed into her mouth, she couldn't stop her teeth from scraping the metal, it sent a shiver down her spine.<br/><br/>He spoke, but she didn't understand the words, it was a struggle to keep her eyes closed, but she managed to keep her lids firmly shut. Wishing she could pretend to be somewhere else. Then his hand was on her cheek and Lila pressed herself harder against the barre head against the mirror, causing her body to arch backwards as she tried to shy away from his touch.<br/><br/>As his hand began to lower, Lila held her breath, his face in her hair. Hand on her breast, he'd be able to feel her trembling.<br/><br/>Eyes opened once more as the man shouted to someone. Madeline. Maybe this Madeline would save her. Of course she would. She was a woman and wouldn't want to see another female in this sort of...situation.<br/><br/>The thoughts of being saved were quickly squished when she saw the Madame being pushed ahead of the Madeline. Her eyes, now looking huge in her pale face stared at Yelena. As the muffled scream was heard in the echoey room, Lila finally felt completely and utterly helpless.
