Cynthia felt something pinched her chest while witnessing how hungry her mother was. She was biting the meat harshly with trembling hands. She covered her mouth using the back of her palm to stop herself from creating a sob. Her heart was crying because of her mom's situation. She hated her father for doing this to her. But she couldn't remove to her heart to do everything he said because she was hoping that maybe one day, the alpha would be awakened from the cruelty he was doing to her and her mom. And she was wishful thinking that she would get her father's trust soon.
She knew the chance was little because he saw her as a demon like Adelia. But she would hold onto it.
'He's my father. I know that inside of him, he loves us,' she marked in her mind.
Adelia felt that she gained strength after eating. The trembling in her body a while ago was gone. She stood up straight and stared back at Cynthia.
'Thank you so much, Cynthia. But you don't need to do this again. I am afraid that you'd get caught one day and be punished for doing this,' she thought worriedly.
Cynthia shook her head. 'Don't worry about me, mom. I'm used to pain. They couldn't hurt me anymore,' she lied.
