The doctor mentioned that if the flames had touched her skin for just three more seconds, it could have resulted in lasting scars. Her wrists had gotten much better. I had learned some of what he did to her.

My mind begins to wander as I stand here, lost in my thoughts. Just as I am about to flip the eggs over, my hand slips and I burn myself on the hot pan. I hiss in pain, quickly pulling my hand away and cradling it against my chest. The skin is already starting to blister, a bright red mark against my pale skin. I take a deep breath, trying to calm myself, but the burn hurts like hell.

This is worse than the burning of my mark. I use my knife and cut a thin slice of the cold root. As I chew on it, I pull the sleeve of my underdress down my arm. The mark is pulsing and I can see it rippling as if it’s calling out to someone. Or something. I get some salve on my fingers and start to rub it onto my arm. Hissing at the pain that radiates out from the mark, I pull my hand back. It’s never hurt so bad before, not even when I was marked in Londinium. Even touching it makes my fingers burn.

His pleas weren’t enough, I wasn’t going to stop until I got the answers I needed. “Last chance,” I warned. “Where is Mark?” When he didn’t respond, I swung the bat again. “Do you know what happens when the outer skin is cut away?” I asked, twirling a knife between my fingers before pointing it at his chest. “When the dermis is exposed, and a burning iron is pressed against it… the nerves scream louder than any pain you’ve ever felt. You won’t pass out from it, you’ll just feel it—every second of it.”

“Someone who wanted to help me find what I was looking for.” I left it vague on purpose. I wanted to piss him off. I wanted payback for all the times he’d done the same thing in just four days. I got my revenge in just two minutes. His eyes grew impossibly darker at the lack of elaboration, and I could see the wheels working overtime in his head. Along with the tick in his jaw and the veins flexing in his hands as he fought to keep them unclenched.

The moment our eyes met, it felt like fire ignited beneath my skin. The mark on my neck—the long-dormant mark—burned intensely. A cold, dazzling light burst forth.

"You've become normal people, Mr. Turner, with your scars from life. She kisses the mark again. It's a small burn mark, about 10 centimeters long, that runs almost from my wrist to my middle finger. I open my eyes and watch her run her fingers over the scar. "It's a nice mark on the hand. That's all. "Anyone can get burned, you know that? Nadia in the kitchen can make a nice scar. "Baby, I don't think you understand, it's not the mark itself but what it represents. What it caused me at that moment. " And how was that?

I breathe out, moving to his other arm where the same scar is. “He ran two silver knives down your arm at the same time?” I asked. “Yes, he did,” he said. I hum, nodding my head. That must have been painful. “What did Marcus do when Kane did this to you?” I asked. “He just looked and did not say anything,” he replied. I nod my head, looking at his leg. “Marcus burnt you,” I said. Touching his rough skin. This is a 3rd degree burn and I don’t even want to imagine what pain he must have gone through.

Fifth spank — right cheek, harder, making the handprint overlap again. The layered burn was exquisite — a sharp crack that sank into already-sensitive skin, turning the heat into a steady fire that made my whole lower body pulse.

Slowly, with trembling fingers, I pulled the fine silk material upward, exposing the lower right side of my ribs where the red, burning mark resided. The red initials K.T. were still there, seared into my skin. But as I stared at the mark in the dim evening light, my eyes widened in absolute horror. The skin around the mark wasn't just red anymore. It was glowing with a faint, pulsing light. It looked as though liquid fire was running beneath my skin, tracing the letters of a name or a title that I didn't even understand. My hand hovered over it, but I didn't dare touch it. The heat radiating from my own flesh was enough to singe my fingertips.
