Chapter 32: Chapter 32

Betrayed by Blood~

The next day, Avery was up and already working, going about to complete her chores for the day. She had made up her mind to avoid Cain for as long as she could today. The thought of what happened yesterday filled her mind, and she shook her head, trying to drive it away. She had already made up her mind.

Avery placed the last cup of tea on the tray and made her way out of the kitchen. Life had been sort of easier when Martha wasn't around, breathing down her neck or yelling at her for a mistake she thought Avery made. Martha herself hadn't been in the pack house for a while now, not since she received her lashings outside the yard. Rumors had it that she'd been tasked with cleaning up the guards' bathroom and toilets, and some even said she was banned from the pack house. In all, nobody had any idea where she was.
