“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

“Chasing shadows in the Starlight, would they lead me to you?”Daisy’s POV“I’m fine, I just needed a breather,” I said to them, but my words did nothing to quell their worries.“Seriously, I just wanted to catch my breath, who knew dancing with Xavier would literally take my breath away,” I tried to joke.Xavier chuckled, “you really do know how to keep a man on his toes,” he said.“Alright ladies, it’s been fun.” Xavier said hugging Priya and Brittany as he bade them goodnight.“Do come around the stables sometime yeah?” Xavier said, smiling lazily at me.“sure,” I whispered.I waved Xavier off and turned to find two faces with a sly grin on them.“you both look like you are about to have a stroke,” I teased, crossing my arms around my chest and watching them.“or maybe we are just feeling a whole lot of pressure from the sexual tension between you and Xavier,” Priya said.I frowned at her words, Xavier was only a friend who I was certain had no attraction towards me.“there’s nothi

“This lust has become a burden we both share.”Daisy’s POV“Don’t scream,” Hades whispered.“What are you doing here?” I whisper-yelled, looking around my room in worry.Hades stood silent, his angry eyes trailing through my body.“Did you kiss him?” He sneered, taking a step towards me.Instinctively, I took huge steps backwards, trying to put a bit of distance between us.My back collided against the wall, and it felt like Déjà Vu, when he had trapped me outside.“Did he kiss you?” He asked again, his voice darker and deeper than usual. Hades dominance filled the room, rather than suffocating me, it filled me with power.“And what if he did?” I taunted, a smirk forming on my lips.Hades’ fingers wrapped around my neck, gently squeezing me. I kept my eyes focused on him, watching as the storm brewed in his eyes.“Where?” he hissed, his fingers squeezing my neck harder.“on my lips,” I rasped, feeling turned on by his actions.Hades fingers brushed my lips, pulling my bottom lip down

“spin me in sunlight, string me along.”Daisy’s POV“Someone looks happy” Priya commented, as she noticed me walk into the diner.“Hi,” I greeted, kissing her on the cheek.“Hello to you, my sunshine friend,” she laughed, kissing my cheek.“Where’s Brittany?” I asked, looking around the diner.“She’s going to be running late, but not to worry, I am here to take perfect care of you and for your entertainment,” Priya said bowing slightly.I laughed at her antics, “you are weird,” I muttered.“And you are my friend, pea in a pod,” she retorted.“Sorry, I am late,” Brittany groaned, snatching the cup of coffee out of my hand.“Today has been a day and it’s not even mid day yet,” she hissed.“Oh sorry, here,” Brittany said handing over the empty cup to me.“Do you want my food too?” I teased.Priya laughed, “you two always have the craziest interactions and I live for it,” she said.Brittany squinted her eyes, “what did you do?” she asked.“do what?” I asked.“You are glowing, and not a no

“we could lose our minds in the city of roses.”Daisy’s POVI understand why Alaric is just a flamboyant soul.“Wow, just take a long at that,” Priya muttered, her eyes wide in surprise.We had made it to Alaric’s clan, much to Astrid’s dismay. She had tried to persuade Hades from permitting me to join the royal entourage.“Daisy,” Hazel called, walking towards me in her royal attire.Hazel had skipped the royal protocol of greeting the king and his lady. She had only acknowledged Hades before marching over to my side and pulling me into a much needed hug.It was hard to all Ignore how annoyed Astrid was, no one had really paid her any mind.“come on ladies, we should have a few things to entertain ourselves with before Alaric becomes a tyrant.” Hazel said.“Astrid, I am sure you must be tired after such a long journey, the maids are available to show you and your ladies to your quarters,” Hazel said to Astrid.Astrid nodded timidly, an action I was almost certain I had imagined.
