Chapter 4: Pain

Eliza's POV

I rolled my eyes and led her to the games room, the only place I could think of that was private. As I got closer to the door, I felt my fists clench and my teeth bite down onto my bottom lip. I took the cold, golden doorknob into my hand and twisted it. I allowed the visitor to go in first before following her closely. I closed the door behind me and turned to face her. She looked alot different from when I last saw her 11 years ago. Her red hair was curled to sit on her cheeks and her skin was quite pale and she had a look of craze in her eyes.

"What do want Gertrude?" I asked her. I folded my arms to show I was being serious, but I couldn't help chuckle at her name.

"You'll address me correctly Eliza!" she shouted, her hands balled into fists. I rolled my eyes at her comment.

"Fine... What do you want... mum?" I repeated. I cringed at the word as she didn't deserve that title.

"I've come to boast about my successful life. What do you think? I've come home!" she replied excitedly, a great big smile on her face.

"Yeah whatever. You don't belong here. You were banished, so go before my father sees you." I growled. Her eyes grew large as she frowned.

"Don't growl at me!" she yelled in my face.

"I can do what I want! I don't have to listen to a child-beating liar, who doesn't deserve love or a family!" I could feel the anger build up inside me. My mum stood up and grabbed a handful of my hair. I let out a yelp as her grip tightened.

"Have some respect! You don't talk to your mother like that! You're not too old for a slap you know!" she said tugging harder. I could feel the sharp pain as it shot through my head. I reached my hands up and dug my nails into her skin, making her release her grip. She held her hand in shock and then glared at me.

Suddenly a fist came towards my face, and all I remember was screaming as I hit the floor.

[A/N Who guessed it was her mother?! If you did, then comment below for a shoutout! More chapters coming soon! Again this was typed on my phone as I'm slowly recovering!]
