He pulled the sheets back on my body and then started running his fingers through my hair.

"This next part of the process is quite painful, but you won't feel it my dove." He grabbed my hand with his other hand and gave it a gentle kiss. I wanted to pull back and slap him across the face.

The hand he was running through my hair was placed on my forehead and that's when I felt pain in my head. I closed my eyes, passing out due to the pain.

The second time I gained consciousness, I was shivering. I hadn't opened my eyes seeing as I was half-conscious. There was a warm source on my side so I leaned into it. Slowly, the sounds of muffled voices were getting clear, but I couldn't recognize them. I felt a hand on my waist and the other one raised my chin. After a while, I finally gained enough strength to open my eyes, only to see red ones.

I was in bed with Zalgo with my head resting on his chest.

I tried to move but again, I was paralyzed. He moved some hair strands away from my forehead as he looked down at me.

"You're paralyzed, it's an effect of my mark."

I slowly moved my gaze to the side to see who he was talking to. A clothed figure who I imagine was one of his minions was standing next to the bed. Zalgo signaled him to leave with his hand and then grabbed a small red bowl filled with pomegranate seeds from the nightstand.

The figure bowed before he left the room. After he had left, the room was completely silent besides Zalgo eating. I slowly was able to open my dry mouth which Zalgo took notice of.

"I'm surprised you're getting your strength back quickly." He grabbed some pomegranates seeds with his hand and carefully placed them in my mouth. I took my time chewing them seeing as I could barely move my mouth.

"You know," he swallowed. "These are a special type of pomegranates seeds because they only grow in the under realm." He fed me the rest of the seeds from the bowl before placing them back on the nightstand.

Once again, I tried to move my body away from him but I still couldn't. My fingertips however were now able to bend which was a good sign.

"You were shivering a few minutes ago, that's why I volunteered to offer you my body heat."

I kept moving my fingertips in an attempt to gain control of my body. Slowly, I felt having control of my hand.

"You know I dreamt of this when you were a kid." He caressed my cheek as I closed my eyes, wishing I could get away from him.

"G-get a-away from m-me," I muttered as I used the strength of my hands to pull away from me.

He chuckled as he brought his arms behind his head and watched me attempt to flee.

"It is amusing watching you struggle love, but you should know it's in vain."

He pulled me in closer to him before he held my head with his hands.

"It appears I need to speed up the process, my dear." He whispered before everything went black again.

By the third time I woke up, I felt drowsy and weak. I tried sitting up but was unable to due to the lack of energy I had.

The door was then opened on the side. Zalgo, who was holding a bowl of soup, had entered the room.

"You finally awoke, my petal. I was beginning to get worried." He placed the bowl on the black nightstand next to me before helping me sit up. He then sat on the side of the bed before retrieving the bowl.

"It's your favorite," he commented before lifting the spoon filled with soup in front of me.

I stared at it, recognizing that this was the same soup I had previously told Splendor that I enjoyed a few weeks ago. I hesitated before slowly opening my dry lips. I didn't care if it contained poison. Dying was a better option than being stuck with him.
