Bab 580: Queen's Resurgence (1)

Katherine's arms were numb as she had been tied up for hours. The thick nylon cuffs around her wrists were uncomfortable that her skin was sore from the friction. They would suspend her in the air for what seemed like forever, and her feet would barely touch the ground whenever they lowered her again. She prayed it would end, but at the same time, she did not want Parker to see her weak.

Everything hurt, and everything felt like an eternity. Although she was being tortured while kept in captivity, what hurt the most weren't the physical inflictions of pain given to her. It's that she knew Damien must be so worried about her right now. At one point, she wished that he would give up and move on without her. But she knew that would never happen. Even when she was facing adversity, all she could think about was how Damien must be suffering.
