Dahlia's POV.

Day eight of bed rest.

The days of bed rest were wearing me down. It had been eight days since the incident, and I was tired. Tired of staying indoors, tired of replaying that fateful day in my head. They said I almost drowned, but it felt like more. I didn’t want to remember it, didn’t want to recall how my own mother had pulled me into the pool. They called it a hallucination, but I thought something else had gone wrong.

I tried to let it go, to focus on something else. Like the movie in front of me. Who did that to me? Dorothy was my first guess. Ares was my second. He hated me, but he wasn’t there when I started hallucinating. He did show up when I almost drowned. Was that a warning? Payback for not meeting him at the cafeteria? But I’d gone to school with him that morning.

Ares was a devil. No question. Yet, despite everything, I found myself wanting him to come and save me. It was a bitter realization, one that gnawed at my insides.

Night had fallen, and I couldn’t

    Dahlia's POVDay nine of bed restI closed the door behind me, locking myself inside my room. The silence wrapped around me like a thick blanket, providing an odd sense of comfort. My eyes landed on the bouquet of roses on my nightstand. The dark red petals appeared soft, their fragrance barely noticeable but still lingering. Ares had given them to me. Not too long ago, such a gift would have felt like a cruel reminder of how much he despised me.But something had shifted. He had changed.I gently touched one of the petals, feeling its softness—so different from the harshness of the man who had given them to me. Ares, who had once taken pleasure in my suffering with his cold, calculated ways, was now the same person offering these flowers. The same person who, somehow, had started to show signs of care.I couldn’t wrap my mind around it. How could someone who had once been so determined to break me now be the one giving me roses? My heart ached with confusion as I got lost in my thoug

    Dahlia's POVDay ten of bed rest.I found myself gazing aimlessly at the ceiling. The routine had become unbearably repetitive—wake up, take medicine, eat, and then lie down again. Ares' constant presence only intensified the monotony. His silent, watchful gaze was always on me, and with each passing day, I could feel his control tightening. I yearned for something, anything, to break the dull cycle.When a knock sounded at the door, I didn’t bother to respond. It creaked open regardless, and Ares walked in, his familiar grin lighting up the room. My heart skipped a beat, though I quickly hid my excitement. I had missed him, but I wasn’t about to let him know that.“Good morning,” he greeted me warmly as he approached my bed. In his hand was a single red rose, just like the one he’d brought the last time he visited. I reached out and took it from him without a word.“Another rose?” I remarked, trying to sound indifferent. “Aren’t you supposed to bring something different each time?”A

As the door swung open fully, I saw Ares standing there just a few steps away. His tall figure nearly blocked out the sunlight, casting a gentle shadow over me. He was holding a large, fluffy teddy bear and several gift bags. My heart leapt at the sight, excitement bubbling inside me.I gasped in surprise and delight. The gifts were unexpected, and seeing him there waiting for me made my heart swell. Without thinking, I grabbed the teddy bear and hugged it tightly against my chest. Looking up at Ares, I couldn’t hide the gratitude in my eyes.“Thank you!” I said, my voice brimming with genuine happiness. My smile spread wide across my face.Ares stood there, his usual stoic expression softening slightly.

The longer I sat there, the more tired I became, my thoughts drifting into a haze.Finally, as dawn began to break and light crept through the windows, I forced myself to stand up, my legs stiff from sitting too long. I let out a deep sigh and made my way to my room. Being close to Ares, even just outside his door, had felt necessary, like something I couldn’t ignore.Once I was in my room, I collapsed onto the bed, not even bothering to pull the covers over me.

You don’t have to swim.”His persistence caught me off guard. “I’m not comfortable with that,” I said, trying to convey how much the idea unsettled me.“I’ll walk you to your room,” he said, completely ignoring my discomfort.I followed him reluctantly, my mind racing for a way out.
