Neveah gritted her teeth against the searing pain that felt as though her scalp was being ripped off.
Tears sprang to her eyes against her will and trailed down her cheeks but she refused to let out even a single sound.
Neveah knew her sounds of pain would only spur her father on to hurt her even more, her father was rarely violent with her but when he was...he was the most brutal.
Neveah understood now what that sneer on Alpha Queen Vilma's face was about, the moment she had been summoned, her father already knew she had turned down Lucas Varleston's proposal.
Neveah did not even wonder how he had figured it out when she had ensured there was no one within close proximity to see, perhaps Lucas Varleston or his father had revealed it, unaware of the repercussions it would bring Neveah.
Or perhaps her father had other methods of finding out whatever information he wanted to.
