Iris kneels on the floor as she scrubs the floor with a brush. She takes the washing clothe in the bucket beside her and wipes the scrubbed areas. She breathes a sigh of relief as she finishes her duties of that morning in it order to get breakfast.

Iris stands up from the floor shakely for she doesn't have much strength; her body is extremely thin and whipping marks can be seen all over her body. Iris picks up the bucket and exits the room.Just as she moves a few steps she's stopped by the head maid of the castle.

Head maid: " princess, it seems you have been doing your chores very diligently I suppose today you can have something more for breakfast."

Iris: " thank you, miss."

The other maids start whispering, "is that even breakfast? If I was her I would have killed myself by now." "How do you suppose she's going to do that the Murdock's wouldn't give her chance. She's guarded 24/7 but it's just to make sure she doesn't kill herself."

Iris grinds her teeth so hard; she remembers her family, father, mother and two brothers that showered her with love all her life. Whatever she wanted all she had to do was ask and it'll be given to her. Her brothers used to tell her that she doesn't need to work or struggle for anything for they'll always be there to protect her.

In the end they all left her behind to suffer in the hands of their enemy. Hatred flashes through her eyes quickly but she masks it and bows her head in an act of submission. 

Iris walks past the head maid but she suddenly collides with someone and she's pushed back. She falls heavily on the ground and the water in the bucket splashes all over the floor. A sudden scream is heard and gasps from people around her. She looks up from the ground and sees Diana, the daughter of the Murdock's extremely pampered and willful and the most cruel person.

Diana: "how dare you pour such dirty water on me you sl*t. Maids bring me my whip now."

Hurried footsteps are heard as a young maid hands over the whip to Diana. Diana moves forward elegantly, hatred flashes through her eyes and with the flick of her hands she stars her merciless whipping. 

Iris lays on the ground and receives all the beatings with silence. Because of her silence Diana is enraged to the extreme. All her life she surpassed many young ladies but not Iris.

People have compared them in beauty, wealth and achievements. She's been Iris's shadow for so long and now she gets the chance to destroy her enemy.

A vicious light flickers in her eyes and aims the whip to Iris's face. Iris tries her best to shield her body but she's still whipped until blood comes out from many wounds inflicted on her. She decides to sneak a peek at her assailant and sees the whip coming down her face. She makes an attempt to dogde but the whip strikes her neck instead. Blood splashes out of her wound, the beatings don't stop.

Diana continues whipping her body and face. Her face is mutilated; the bones could be seen, one of her eyes hanging out. Pain coursed through her body. Blood poured out of her body and her body turned cold. Iris looked at her assailant and the people around her with vengeance and resentment. No one came to her rescue, no one can save her she can only rely on herself. Death came and she closed her eyes in relief.
