Why, why does the king insist on consistently abusing me? | haven't done anything wrong at all, and yet here |
was once again cowering in front of him.
“A lashing is a mild punishment for what you have done.” | was getting really scared now, both my body and my
mind couldn’t take any more pain. | couldn’t take a lashing. The last one was far too excessive. “Give us a
name...” the alpha continued his interrogation while the king remained ridged.
| had to think, and | had to think fast. | couldn’t actually tell them who helpedsmuggle things in, they'd be
put to death in a heartbeat, but I also couldn’t stand any more physical abuse. Think... think.

toagain.
*#MY MOM!” | blurted it out fast and loudly as panic swept over me.
“Your mother?” Adrian looked tofinally and frowned while his father askedthe question. | just nodded my
head rapidly. No one could harm my mom more than she already was. “Bull shit!”
“It’s not... The phone... the phone was just used to replace the number of stock. My mom worked in the
inventory sector you can check it. She... She ran numbers and made sure the human nations were all handed out
equally. That is Until she began to give extra to people, usingas the delivery girl. It was perfect Because she
could just claim that they were a few short sweeks and stock pile up for those who needed in Was that
believable? | was quite proud of myself for the massive lie I'd cooked up in my head, on the spot, in front of
imminent danger. The three wolves that were present in the room went completely silent until the whip came
down on my skinny upper arm causingto wince and grab it falling to my knees in front of the king to show
respect.
“And who helped her?” | shook my head, now holding the bleeding cut with my other hand.
“I... 1 don’t know... | just kept the phone hidden in case it was found. You were all much more likely to go easier
ondue to my age.” Please, believe me, god | prayed, | pray silently to whatever higher power was listening
to my cries. | couldn't live in so much fear anymore.
*Remove your top!” King Josh's sentence stopped my breath as | looked at him and shook my head repeatedly
while remaining on my knees in front of him. | had no intention of taking another lashing. “Remove it or | will do
it for you!” His eyes flickered to black as he growled causingto cower in on myself more.
“Your grace, maybe we should wait to deal her punishment, she can’t take another lashing, we all know that, and
they hardly have the desired affect anyway because she still acts out.” Adrian spoke calmly but his body
language screamed anything but calm. He was ridged and looked almost ready to attack the king on the spot.
“I don’t care if she can take it or not. | was grabbed by my skinny wrist and pulled up with my arm onto my feet.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI was so light that the king really could just throwaround like it was nothing. Once | was on my feet he
grabbed my prisoners top from the hem and yanked it roughly over my head causing my legs to give in on me.
| didn’t care about my breasts being on show for once, | was much more focused on keeping my horribly scarred
back away from the audience of three and most importantly away from the whip the king held.
“Face the door on your knees and place your hands on it... now! All sense of adoration was gone, there was not a
single hint of emotion in king joshs voice and I knew if | didn’t comply then I'd face even worse. Dear god let this
kill me, please let this one be my end.
| slowly turned around and placed my shaking hands on the door showing my back to the room. A loud gasp left
Adrian’s lips and | frowned in embarrassment. Sure I'd had a backless dress on at the education announcement,
but it didn’t show my entire canvas of scars. This tmy entire flesh was on show, and the sheer amount of
permanent marks | had received. My head lowered and tears were quick to stream out of my eyes, landing on
the carpet below me.
