He stormed upstairs after her. She locked her door and yelled please just leave me alone. Using his set of keys he entered her room and grabbed by hair again almost dragging her downstairs. He ordered her parents to follow them outside to the barn. He ordered them to tie her to the top rail of the stall next to Stargazer. he tore the back of the dress off of her using one of the horse whips in the barn to start whipping her several times then made her parents do the same to her.
Victoria kept sobbing and asking her mother if she loved her anymore and why she let a cruel man touch her baby. Madelyn said nothing to her daughter. Victoria took the no comment as she really doesn't love me. If she didn't then why didn't she just let her go back to Porky Pine Hallow She could find someone that would let stay with them and she could work at The Chicken Hut.
Madelyn saw her baby sobbing in pain. When the beating was through she had her head laying on the top railing. He told them to leave her there. After they left Stargazer whimper as though he was crying too. A few minutes later all three came back He threw her a pair of jeans and a top to her and told her mother to help her clean up
After Victoria was cleaned up master Ahriman told her mother to take over Victoria house duties while her father took over her barn duties telling them as he put her in a stall that had full sheets of stall paneling beside Stargazer's stall he didn't want Madelyn out int he barn until he said so because he didn't want her to sneak any food out to her. All she was to have was water. Someone went and got a portable potty to place in the stall for her to use.
She was still crying as he locked the stall gate using a padlock. There was one small window between her and Stargazer's stall. She hear him digging around his hay Luke fed Stargazer and left three carrots in his bag. She could hear Stargazer nuzzeling in his hay bale corner pushing his hay around. Luke tried to take care of stargazer's stall but Stargazer wouldn't let him anywhere around him or his stall. Luke was furious and informed master Ahriman about that stupid horse. He was told just to feed him and give him and Victoria fresh water.
Awhile after Luke fed him then gave both of them fresh water he left the barn Victoria heard Stargazer digging again. He stuck his head through the window. He had a carrot by the top in his mouth. He gave it to Victoria. She washed it off with the fresh water she had and gladly ate the carrot. The next day he repeated it again. She knew God was telling him what to do. She threw the carrot tops back into his stall so no one knew he was feeding her. That occurred the whole week Victoria was locked in the stall. Every day he gave her two of the three carrots he had.
