Two years ago,
’Inez, did you try to run?’
It was the middle of the winter, and Inez, who was fed up with the constant torment, had tried to run out of the pack’s territory because she knew that if she stayed any longer, she would go crazy. So, she had packed her bags and made a run for it, wanting to escape the torment of being thrown into the dungeon or locked up in the dark room for the smallest thing that she did wrong.
The pack despised her to the point that even her breathing made every single pack member agitated and disgusted by her, which was confusing because Inez could not understand what she had done for the pain they were putting her through.
She had tried to understand their rage, even questioned her own actions, and yet nothing explained the torment that was being given to her.
Unable to withstand the pain and agony that the pack made her go through, Inez had tried to make a run for it, but before she could even get past the pack boundary, she was caught and brought back to the pack.
It was as if Dominic were an actual semblance of the real God in her life.
He knew things about her better than herself or, more like, her mother would rather betray her only daughter than face the wrath of this man. Inez knew that it must have been her mother who told the truth about her little plan to Dominic and the rest.
Inez had long stopped questioning how her mother could do such a thing to her. There was no point in asking such foolish questions, for her mother was one of the most selfish and self-centred women. As a matter of fact, Inez was nothing to her. A mother who could call her own daughter a monster – how could she care about the safety and happiness of that child?
She must have given her away, thinking and taking it as the finest moment of her sorry, pathetic life.
’I did,’ Inez answered Dominic. She knew that there was no point in denying or trying to explain why she did it. Because Dominic was not interested in any of it. He only cared about one thing, and that was to make her suffer the worst kind of pain known to humanity.
The man stared down at her. His eyes were blank and devoid. Like a void that had sucked everything, even the light.
’You really need to learn your lesson,’ said Dominic as he made his way to the wall where the many tools for torment were hanging.
