There's no mention of her being raped specifically in the LN but, she was abandoned and tortured to the point that she broke and agreed to serve the Arcadia Empire as an assassin (basically to be trained like Yorika). The brand was proof of her servitude to the empire (this makes the mark far more serious than the anime implys because it marks her as a traitor). The reason she was better a piloting a drag-ride than most of the students was that she was trained initially by the empire when it was otherwise forbidden for women to pilot them.
