~Daliah's POV~
Usually, I knew that all of these punishments I've been subjected to must've been done to deter me… to show me just how much I would suffer if I tried to flee, but somehow, deep in my subconscious, it only gave me more reasons to want to leave.
It only made me firmer in my resolve to escape this pack especially now that there were no more emotional attachments left for me to hold on to here.
Nobody should be hurt so much by my absence. Not Beta Orion… and definitely not my mate, Alpha Zarek.
Speaking of my mate, he stood a few feet away from my cell but made no move to come closer, his dark eyes trained on me. However, something about that made me even more annoyed than I already was. It made it seem like he had come here to gloat, to witness in my suffering, never to render any sort of help.
I snorted. "Leave."
