Chapitre 6: Death Sentence

I got dragged to the feet of Lucas. I shivered as the guards threw me to the floor, right at his feet, before they moved back.

I swallowed in fear as he towered above me. I dared not look up at him but I could feel the heat of the familiar irritated glare.

"How many crimes did you commit this time, little lamb?" He asked and I shook with fear, barely taking a second before I answered him. Lucas hated slow people. I didn't even think about the question enough before I answered.

"Tsk, tsk. You forgot rule number one" he said as he whipped me again and I stifled a groan as tears streamed down my face. I was not caught off guard this time and I was very much used to this.

"Good girl," he said.
