She tried to keep warm under the blanket, but not being able to move her hands or feet properly because of the tape meant that she could only cover some of her body up, and so she had spent the night shivering violently. She was slowly losing patience now; she had lost track of time but guessed by the light in gap of the curtains that she had been here for about three days, and she had seen the sun come up about an hour ago, so she figured it was probably around five in the morning. She had expected that either she would have been rescued by now or that Jay and Tanya would have let her go. What were they playing at? She couldn’t believe that they were getting away with it. There were moments of sheer panic that swept over her, when Kate thought about what might happen if they kept her there, what if no-one came looking? She had no idea where she was, and wondered what if she was never found. She kept telling herself that she would be rescued; she knew she wasn’t being left for dead as Tanya and Jay were still in the house, she had heard them talking just outside of the door at the top of the stairs, saying that Billy would be just about ready to call, that they had made him sweat it out for a few days and now he would be willing to pay, whatever the cost.
