"What happened?" Torak stopped in his tracks when he saw Raine taking two steps back the moment she saw him. "Why? Are you hurt? Why are you crying?"
It was clear to see that something was bothering Raine and Torak didn't know what it was, as he wasn't allowed to come closer to her.
"No, don't come near me…" Raine whined as she covered her neck.
While Torak was trying hard to think what was the reason for Raine's distress, his mate was thinking about the ugly bruises that could make Torak loathe her.
"My love, don't scare me…" Torak took another step closer and Raine couldn't avoid him as her back had hit the wall behind her.
"Don't look at me…" Raine spoke rigidly.
"What?" Torak was unsure of what he heard just now. "Why? What happened?"
"I am ugly…" Raine was almost crying when she said this. What if this wound would stuck on her skin permanently?
