That kind faded. This was the slow pain\u2014the kind that settled into the bones like winter frost. The pain of scrubbing stone floors until her fingers bled. The pain of sleeping beside kitchen ashes while rats scurried in the dark. The pain of hearing her own name spoken only in whispers, as if she were a curse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And worst of all, the pain of remembering a father everyone insisted had abandoned her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFaster.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The voice cracked through the servant corridor like a whip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Elira lowered her head immediately.
