“clandestine meetings and longing stares, all born from a single glance.”Daisy’s POVMy body is a betrayer. That’s a summary of everything that had happened since Hades came to the hospital.“She’s coming with me,” Hades growled, lifting me gently from the bed. I hid my head in his hard chest trying to hide from the stares and whispers.Brittany tried to hide her smile, “okay, just remember, constant body contact,” she said, walking off to her other patient.It has been two days since the clinic incident, and somehow Hades and I have been around each other like two peas in a pod.Hades had been like a hovering mother, leaving me confined under his arms. Lucien usually came in to give him his daily work update, while I lay cuddled in his chest.I had tried to put a little bit of distance between us, the thought had been a catalyst, Hades had found me lying on the cold hard bathroom floor, with a new bruise forming on my thighs.It was like my body was fighting against my mind, and I c

“Secrets locked away in hollowed out lockets, left in the dark.”Daisy’s POVI should be feeling guilty, but the emotion only feels strange to me. I bit down on the towel, trying to muffled my scream as I slammed my wrist against the bathroom door.I was slowly losing the one thing that kept Hades close to me for these past days. And in my panicked moment of desperation a twisted thought formed in my head.My eyes watered as I stared at my throbbing wrist, a needed price for a greater good.“Daisy,” Hades panicked voice filled the room, and I quickly threw the towel away from me before the door burst open.Hades eyes took in my form, “you should have woken me up,” he said in a low voice, his fingers gently rubbing my throbbing wrist.“you haven’t had rest in such a long time and I didn’t want to look clingy,” I cried, finally letting out the pain I was feeling on my wrist.“you aren’t clingy, we both know your body needs this,” Hades said in a low tone, steering us towards the bed.Ha

“It’s all messed up, the world finally crumbling.”Daisy’s POV“Hades!!!”My feet hurting from how fast I was running. I could hear Brittany and Priya chasing after me, but all I could think about was finding Hades.“Hades please!!!” I screamed, my voice cracking, my chest felt like it was stabbed with a silver axe repeatedly.Hades paused his steps, “how dare you?” He growled.I shivered in fear at the intensity of his glare. Through my blurry eyes I couldn’t find the trace of the man who had spent nights in my room talking and laughing at every silly thing possible.“You broke into her closet and picked a dress, how desperate could you be Daisy?” he shouted.I shook my head, the words trapped in my throat, the only sound that could be heard was my sobbing, as I stood before Hades.My hands stretched out, trying to hold onto him, Hades took a step back, a look of disgust flashed across his face.My knees buckled and I dropped to the ground, the hard granite floor digging into my kne

“One bad seed kills the garden. They tried to warn me.”Daisy’s POV“How are you feeling today?”The question seems to be like it’s on auto repeat everyday on Brittany’s lips.“Like I made the worse decision ever,” I groaned, rubbing my hands over my face in frustration.“Do you think you might be up for us to step out a bit today?” Priya said in a soft voice.I shuddered at the thought, the last time I had stepped out, it felt like their eyes were shooting daggers at me, taunting and jeering as I moved.Priya had tried to force me to keep a hard front, “don’t let it get to you, they will move on immediately, when the next juicy story comes,” Priya had said.“Maybe later, I think I am going to sit this one out,” I whispered, pulling the blanket closer to my body.Priya had a sad look on her face, “Daisy,” she muttered.“Seriously, I just don’t feel up to it, I promise I am okay,” I mumbled.“It’s alright take your time,” Priya replied, taking off her sandals and settling back on the b

“You can swallow the pride, but the shame, that’s a bitter one to stomach.”Daisy’s POV“Shit!”Maybe I should have listened to the guard and returned to my room with my tail tucked between my legs, literally.“Great start,” Priya whispered behind me.My eyes took in the emotions around the room, ranging from amused, admiration, curiosity and finally anger.Without even meeting his gaze, I could already feel his anger.“Daisy!” Alaric shrieked, pulling me into a tight hug.“What’s going on?” he whispered in my ear, the curious look in his eyes trying to see through the frozen expression on my face.“She’s here to confront the big bad Alpha,” Priya replied in a low tone, letting Alaric in on our doomed plan.“Oh, good luck then,” Alaric mumbled as he pulled his body off mine, sending a quick thumps up my way, before he pulled Priya to the side, leaving me standing alone.“what’s the meaning of all this?” Hades growled, his eyes filled with anger.I swallowed hard, my throat tightened,

“Sometimes, silence is a map, guiding the restless minds.”Daisy’s POVPriya was right, the eyes and snickering had stopped, my existence was long forgotten.It was easier to navigate around the kingdom without feeling like I was trapped under a huge lens with people analyzing my every move.The lake had become my solace, the anchor grounding me through all these emotions.Brittany had been excited when I had mention I was going to pick up gardening again, but this time away from prying eyes.They had jumped up immediately at the offer and helped clear out a patch between the trees, just by the lake.“When the sun comes, your beauty would blind it,” I whispered to the black dahlia.A laugh bubbles out of me, sometimes it felt like the flowers could hear my words, and the thought had made me talk daily to them.Hazel had said she would be coming around to talk, I found myself happy to be around her and Alaric, they were different, a change I needed.My body hummed, it was like electric

“Burning cities, teary eyes, trying to find my way through a world gone blind.”Daisy’s POVI didn’t understand why Astrid despised me. It was like her existence was solely to poison everything my soul longed for.Pictures of our encounter flooded my mind, the intensity of Hades glare still burning through my mind.“Okay, that’s it, I have had enough of walking on egg shells around you,” Priya shouted, barging into the room with a scowl on her face.“You have been moping around for an eternity now, eating less and just crying yourself to sleep, it’s unhealthy,” Priya shouted.I kept mute, if I ignored her long enough she would get fed up and leave, it has worked the past few days and I was sure it would again.“the selective muteness I can understand but the selective deafness, I will smack it right out of you,” she growled, her hands placed on her waist as she watched me with an unpleased look on her face.“what she’s trying to say with her so much colorful words is that there’s a fe

“I want to walk away, but I always end up running back to you.”Daisy’s POVI was free, floating in the moment, laughing.I had successfully persuaded Xavier to dance with me, the music vibrated through the air, its rhythm pulsing in synchrony with my beating heart.I moved my body to the beats of the music, feeling the air wave through my hair and for the first time in a very long time I felt happy, with a genuine smile plastered my face.I twirled in Xavier’s hands, laughing loudly as we danced around in wild abandon, Priya and Brittany had joins us, our fingers joined as we spun in circles.“Yes!!!” Priya made hooting sound, cheering me and Xavier on.The music had finally lost it’s fast tempo, slowly winding down to a more sensual and slow song.Priya and Brittany hugged each, with lazy smiles on their faces as they swayed gently in each other’s arms.Xavier’s hands touch my back, drawing my attention back to the present. “you are beautiful,” he muttered, gently pulling my body f
