Chapter 34: Chapter 34: I want her owned.

Selene’s POV

The next morning...

The cold clink of the chains unlocking echoed through the punishment room.

I didn’t move.

My wrists dropped heavily to my sides, blood rushing back into my numb arms. The sudden ache barely registered—because something far worse had already settled inside me.

The bell rang. A small, delicate jingle. Innocent in sound. Cruel in meaning.

My legs obeyed because I couldn’t afford to fall, because I am sure he would start dragging me like that without giving me the chance to stood up.

But because if I saw someone—anyone—I didn’t know if I could survive it.

My fists clenched at my sides, trembling.

I wanted to rip the leash from his hand. I wanted to claw that smirk from his face. I wanted to scream.

But I did none of those things.
