Damon raised the whip , I flinched when it struck Liam’s back .

He didn’t even move , another followed , each lash made my heart squeeze .

For his mistake … It’s for his mistake … I had to tell myself that , my heart thundering as each lash struck him , slicing through his skin and letting blood drip to the ground .

Not once did he even flinch , despite his breathing becoming harder .

But each lash was biting into me , the pain of watching him face this … Thirty … ” Raven … ” Uncle El said and I realised I was shaking .

My heart was beating far too fast .

” Step outside .  ” No.

” I said as I saw Taylor coming over .

No doubt Uncle El had mind linked him .

” I’m staying .

” I stared at Liam as Damon continued .

The emotionless mask on Damon’s face was gone , pain and conflict on his face too as he frowned deeply continuing the punishment .

” That’s enough now .

” I said suddenly , flinching as the silver cut into Liam’s back that was a mess of lashes , torn skin and blood .

” Raven .

I told you , you can’t change this .

” Uncle El said softly .

” No I can , because he marked me , I have the right to .

” I said standing up , I saw Damon glance towards us but he continued his dealing .

Each lash felt like I was the one being cut open .

My heart was screaming in pain .

The fear and anguish inside of me were messing m e up .

He made a terrifying mistake , and one that would take time to heal , but let him have the chance to redeem himself ! Not d o something so painful like this ! ” Take her outside .

” Uncle El said quietly t o Taylor and Zack , ” Your emotions are clouding your judgement , Raven .

” ” 1 No , No … I love him …

Taylor wrapped his arm around my shoulders , leading me firmly towards the exit .

No ! I stared at Liam’s mutilated back , his shoulders heaving , his head hanging yet not once did a sound escape him .

‘ I’m fine , Raven .

Please leave .

‘ His voice came through the link .

No matter how much he tried to hide it … I could hear it .

My eyes stung with tears as I shook my head at his back .

How can I turn my back on him right now ? The darkness inside of him was feeding on all negative emotions ; fear , loneliness and regret were part of that .

This was not the right way ! ” Fifty .

” Damon said , breathing hard as he lashed him again .

I couldn’t breathe ….

My heart was ringing in my ear … The smell of blood … I spun around in a flash , but Zack was ready .

His arm was wrapped around my waist as I struggled against him .

” Stop it ! ” I cried out , my heart was breaking as if someone was ripping it apart inch by inch ” Raven , come on .

It’s compulsory .

” Zack said quietly .

” Please stop it ! If this is for marking me , I was going to let him mark me anyway ! ” I sobbed , not caring for once that I was crying out in the open .

Damon hesitated , turning to me .Our eyes met and I realised his eyes glistened with unshed tears .
