Progress?

Thea gasped, tears starting to gather in her eyes as the pain renewed.

Ophelia hoped and hoped that her Alexander would not react when she was hurting this woman, but alas, his face immediately changed when he saw the pain that the slut was going through.

Sure enough. Her Alexander was too kind. She supposed she wouldn't like him if he wasn't in the first place but seeing him be kind to some other woman just left a bad taste in her mouth.

It was unacceptable.

It just made the princess want to treat this whore harsher. How dare she try and insert herself back into her Alexander's life when he already had her.

Alec stepped forward to try and mediate with Ophelia, but she only tightened her grip on Thea's hair when he stepped forward.

There was a struggle on Alec's face as he stepped back.

Ophelia obligingly loosened her grip a little, ignoring the woman's feeble actions as she tried to escape from the princess' grasp.
