Marked by Vengeance
Her clothes were ripped, her stomach and thighs was stained with dried blood, and thick red marks lined her back in neat, cruel rows.
“Rogue?” Silas asked, his tone sharp with suspicion.
I crouched beside her, my gaze lingering on the whip marks. Those weren’t from a rogue attack. They were deliberate. Systematic. Punishment.
“I don't think so,” I muttered. “She was probably flogged and left out to die.”
A moment of silence, then I continued. “Let's take her since she is still alive.“
Silas eyes furrowed in shock. Then he frowned. “That’s not our problem, Thorne. She’s a burden we can’t afford. She might bring trouble with her. Who knows what she might have done to be punished like that.”
