(Nikita's P.O.V.)
Beta Poppy looked away after hearing my question. She lowered her head, trying to hide the tears building up in her eyes. I heaved a deep sigh.
Now, I know why she's always wearing long sleeves. It is to hide the scars and wounds her husband gives to her.
I can't believe this. Her good for nothing husband does not only make her head hurts with a bunch of gambling debts he's putting on her shoulder. he's also hurting her physically. Why would she put up with a guy like him?
"Poppy? Answer me. The ones I saw on your arms looked like fresh wounds. Is your husband hurting you?" I asked again, persuading her to tell me the truth. Fear is obvious on her face. I know that her husband must have threatened him for who knows how much. I also see a hint of shame in her eyes.
