Akila,
The young queen watched her friend strike the old woman so hard.
She had this expression on her face that showed her satisfaction.
She had never thought of Ebony as a violent person, but the king's cousin looked like this was normal to her.
The old woman screamed and cried as her flesh opened and blood oozed on the floor.
But she never begged for the king's forgiveness or asked for help. She took her punishment with dignity.
And even though she lost her consciousness after the tenth strike, Ebony didn't stop.
Ramses watched his cousin with hard eyes and a firm face. He as well felt satisfied.
Akila shuddered at how people thought of this as a normal occurrence.
She left when she felt her stomach revolt and nuisance hit her. She entered her room, closing the door behind her.
Trying to block all the screams and noise. She didn't want to witness how cruel people can be.
