“You won’t see me fall apart.” Daisy’s POV “You are going to hold me hostage?” “No,” Astrid replied, wiping the tears off her cheeks. “We are going to talk and not run away from each other,” she muttered. I looked at the locked door, and turned my gaze to Astrid, “this isn’t going to work,” I mumbled, pacing around the room. I felt trapped, my mind was flooding with bottled up emotions and I wasn’t ready to deal with them. “You don’t get to decide how I get to heal,” I hissed at her, my heart drumming loudly in my chest. “I want us to talk without you running off, I need you,” she said in a broken voice. “I need to get out, open this door,” I screamed, my fist pounding on the door. “daisy,” Astrid called. “You don’t get it, I can’t be trapped in here with you,” I gritted out. “don’t say that,” she said, her eyes watering as fresh tears welled up in them. I let out a bitter laugh, “don’t sound hurt Astrid, you have caused me far more pain,” I hissed. “I had a
“I can’t see it all. Trapped in grey.”Daisy’s POVIt was quiet, too quiet.I slowly opened my eyes, the brightness in the room instantly blinding me.“Don’t sit up so fast,” Brittany scolded, placing her hand on my shoulder.“What happened?” I asked in a groggy voice.It felt strange, like I was forgetting a huge part of a vital information.“You passed out,” Brittany replied, placing a cup of water in my hand.“Thank you,” I whispered.“What were you doing outside her room?” Priya hissed.Brittany turned to Priya giving her a scolded look, and I blinked in confusion trying to understand the situation.“who?” I asked, my mind was disoriented and I needed to fix whatever holes that were in it.“Astrid’s room, did she do something?” Priya asked, ignoring the look Brittany was giving her.It all came flooding back as she mentioned Astrid’s name. My head ached in pain, reliving every moment I had in that room.“not now Priya,” Brittany chided.“When Britt, we both found her hyperventilat
“burned by the feel of your kisses.”Daisy’s POV“Hades is an excellent rider, I am surprised you still don’t know how to ride,”I shot Xavier a death glare at his comment.Astrid had respected my wishes and avoided me, I knew I had agreed to give her a chance but I was still feeling unsure of approaching her yet. And I appreciated her effort in keeping her distance.Xavier’s laughter echoed through the plains we had journeyed through.“Is that meant to be a threatening glare?” He teased, throwing his head back.“I should have accepted Hades offer,” I mumbled under my breath.I had decided to officially learn how to ride a horse, and I had rejected Hades offer after our last horse ride encounter.Hades had gone back to actively teasing me. He had a relieved look on his face as he walked in on us competing on who could fill their mouth with the most nuts.“It shouldn’t be hard for you to fit it in,” Hades had teased me, causing the nuts to spew out of our mouths as we laughed at his fa
“it’s about being brave, and stronger.”Daisy’s POV“Can I come in?”I was back in front of Astrid’s door. Somehow it felt like she needed to hear it from me that I have forgiven her.“Sure,” she whispered, pushing open the door wide for me to enter.I would give it to her, Astrid could never look band even on a bad day. Her hair was perfectly styled, not a strand could be found out of place.“I won’t be here for long, I just came to get it all off of my chest,” I said, reciting the words I had practiced for a while.“I had lived with the burden of thinking I was the problem, allowed our father to let me think I was less, but my blessings truly came in disguise,” I started.“I found my peace here, grew out of the shelf I was locked in,”A small laugh broke out of my lips, “just the other day, I was horse riding, was it crazy yes it was, but goddess did I love every minute of it,”“daisy,” Astrid called, interrupting me mid rant.“No,” I said, holding my hand in front of me.“you will
“I could never leave a fight unresolved.”Daisy’s POV“No,”Brittany hissed, walking away from us.“You know what,” she said, turning back to look at us, her face red in anger.“You might think it’s all fine to sweep things under the rug, but I can never forget that she stood quietly and watched as you were almost hanged,” Brittany yelled.“I am not saying you shouldn’t forgive her, but all I am saying is you can’t expect me to be all smiles with her like I don’t know of the things she had done,”“I love you Daisy, but you can’t make me do that,” Brittany said, tears forming in her eyes.I was instantly struck with guilt, I had enjoyed spending the whole of my day with Astrid, it was beautiful to know she had a lot of personality.And in my moment of excited, I had suggested to my friends that I was hoping they could be cordial with her.“Brittany,” I whispered, my heart breaking at the pain in her eyes.“No, I get it, you just got your sister back and you want to mend the relationshi
“The meeting was charming, if only a little gauche.”Daisy’s POVA knife would be too blunt to cut through tension in the room, we needed a chainsaw, handled by our finest warrior to do that.I looked desperately at Priya, hoping that she would crack one of her infamous jokes, but her facial expression was anything but jovial.I didn’t even bother looking at Brittany, I could already feel the death glare from her eyes, directed towards Astrid.“Why don’t we get the moon in the day and the sun at night?” I said, cringing at my attempt to break the ice.Priya was the first to react, her loud laughter echoing through the air.“How do you think of this stuff?” she chuckled.“moon at day and sun at night,” she repeated, shaking her head at the absurdity of it.I smiled, feeling proud of myself for breaking the ice, but the feeling was gone as soon as I felt it.Brittany still had an unimpressed look on her face, her death glare fixed on Astrid.It was funny to see Astrid fidget under a sta
“Let the games begin.”Daisy’s POV“Out,”I shrieked, jumping in surprise at Hades who had barged into the bathroom.“Come on, you can hog all the water, I need to shower too,” Hades said, with a sly grin on his face.I kissed my teeth in frustration, he had waited patiently for when I would lather my body with soap before walking in.“I’ll be done in just a minute,” I hissed, trying to keep my eyes from looking down his body.“A minute is too long,” he muttered stepping in.I knew this was another cheap trick of his, but there wasn’t much I could do than step back and watch him enter the tiny space.I kept my back to him, focusing my attention on the wall.“What are you doing?” I asked, my body tensed up as I felt Hades body press against mine.“ getting the soap,” he drawled out in my ear, his warm breath fanning my earlobe.“Done?” I asked, my voice in a tiny whisper as I felt him slowly rub his bulge against my back.“you missed a spot on your back,” he said in a low voice, taking
“I did something bad, but boy, did it feel so good.” Daisy’s POV It was no or never. I watched Hades walk around the room, unsuspecting of the danger lurking in the shadows. My heart was thundering loudly in my chest, as I slowly pulled the blanket off of my body. “Hades” I drawled out. Hades turned, his eyes widening as he took in my appearance. I smirked, enjoying the way his eyes trailed down my body hungrily. “I’ve been thinking about you a lot, lately,” I whispered in a sultry voice. Hades gulped, his eyes fixed between my thighs watching my fingers tease my folds. “Hades,” I mewled, my fingers tugging on my nipple. I enjoyed the power I had over him, Hades looked like he was enchanted by me. “Baby,” Hades groaned, his throat bobbing up and down. The hunger in his eyes fueled my lust, and I teased my hole, my fingers glittering from how wet I was. I threw my head back in pleasure as my walls clenched around my fingers. I moved my hips wildly against my
