You need to talk to her about it. If you notice that she's really acting differently, ask her about it. Just explain to her that you are her friend, you were there for her and the past, and you'll be there for her now. If she wants to get something out of her, she can trust you with it. Maybe once she realizes you do care about her, she'll tell you. Since she had her real father beat on her, why don't you look for signs? Example: What did she act like when her real father hit her, and is she acting like that now that she has a step father? Remember, always be there for her no matter what and show her that she can trust you with anything.
