Chapter 15 The Vervain Incident

• Gabriella Monet POV
• Three days after I awoke, I made a point of ignoring Slade, and even when we were together, we never spoke. Slade and I hatred had grown even more intense than I could have imagined. I hated that he couldn't defend me while the king was whipping me, and I'm sure he despised me because I punched his pretty girlfriend in the face.
• Speaking of his stupid girlfriend, I hadn't seen her in days until she approached me yesterday and asked how my wounds were healing.
