I like how the author has shown the complex behaviour between a parent who was abusive in the past and the abused child. Lyrica has been led to believe that the only way she will get love from her mother if she is useful for her. She doesn't believe in unconditional love that a parent has for their child. I hope in the next chapter the queen talks and makes Lyrica understand. I want their relationship to get better and have a proper mother daughter relationship. It's impossible to forget the mental and physical scars of abuse but it is possible to move on from them to a certain extent.
