The two bodyguards left immediately. Seamus and Persephone were the only ones in the house.
Seeing her battered appearance stirred anger and pain within Seamus.
"We brought a significant amount of ointment from Centrolis." He placed the burn ointment in her hand. "I noticed
you burned your arm. I'm unsure if other parts of your body are affected, so I can't assist there. Examine yourself
and attend to any injuries. I'll be waiting at the door. Call me when you're finished."
Persephone remained motionless, tears streaming from her vacant eyes.

"Why did he do that to me?" She trembled. "He told me he liked me last night!
"He's been the one protecting me since I came to Flinge... How did he change so abruptly? Is he no longer

"Tell me why?!"
Finally, she cried out loud, wrapping her head around her arms and curling into a ball.
Seamus, who had been squatting in front of her, stood up slowly, his eyes revealing a complex mix of emotions.
Rather than offering comfort as he had before, he stood before her like a god in control of everything. His clenched

Seamus said softly, "Sephy, stop putting effort into something that won't work. He doesn't deserve you."
Persephone didn't even look up, turning her gaze away.
"Stay here like a good girl for these two days. We'll return to Centrolis soon," he added.

She tried her best to push Morpheus out of her mind, but his image persisted. The chair triggered visions of him
sitting there while the cabinet brought back memories of his boxing gloves neatly stored inside.
Even the plants and trees in the courtyard stirred recollections of the mountains and forests he had once shown
her.
Though teary-eyed, she managed to restrain her tears.
The mystery of Seamus' whereabouts troubled her. He was consistently absent from home, leaving a rotation of
peculiar-looking bodyguards in charge.
