Chapter 53. DECLAN: THE LOUD VOICE OF PAIN 2.
Lucien laid down on the bed and his subconscious took him back to that very day in Mombana. He was in chains after being whipped that morning.
His back was bleeding. His legs were bleeding where Cone made him step on shattered glasses and laughed while he was dragged in chains to walk on them.
Back in chains, he was barely awake. It's one of those hundred times he came face to face with death. Cone was still angry at him for killing his guard and saving a girl the guards were raping. She was one of his subjects.
He'd been punished him severally. He laid on the cold hard ground of his cage, bleeding and without strength.
He hasn't eaten anything in three days, and being tortured too got him on the verge of death.
Vetta was in the cage next to him and even though they were instructed to stay away from him, Vetta crawled from her cage to his own. That was where she is when the guards came. They got angry and dragged her by the hair away.
