After injecting him with the necessary medication, Nyx's body lay unconscious on the cold, hard ground for three hours. Athena, still haunted by the memories of their previous encounters, approached his cell with a tray of food. As she entered the code to open the barriers, her fingers trembled with a mix of apprehension and fear.She couldn't erase the memory of his dark eyes glaring at her, his strong grip on her neck suffocating her. It was a terrifying experience, especially coming from someone who had been her patient, someone she had prioritized and cared for deeply. And yet, he had shown her her worst nightmare.Athena blamed herself for what had transpired. She believed that it was her fault, that she had somehow triggered his other, more violent side. The injections meant to suppress his darker tendencies were taking a toll on his brain, and she wondered what would happen if he didn't receive his medication in the future. Would she become his next target?Thoughts raced throu

Athena sat across from Nyx, her face devoid of makeup, wearing a simple gray hoodie, and her hair pulled back into a tight ponytail. It was the same unassuming appearance that Nyx had grown accustomed to seeing ever since she had taken on the role of his therapist.After the tumultuous events of the previous day, Athena had made a silent resolution not to bring up the painful subject with Nyx, at least for now. She couldn't bear the thought of another victim painted in blood because of her actions. She was determined to tread cautiously, aware of the delicate balance between helping him and triggering his darker side."Alright, let's get started," Athena murmured softly, breaking the silence as Nyx settled into the chair in front of her as started to record the session for herself- the records are fo her to keep. His gaze remained fixed on her desk, his eyes seemingly entranced by the swirling patterns on the surface of her coffee cup. The cup sat before her, its contents nearly deple

14-MAD MEN FOR CINDERELLAThe warm breeze gently caressed Nyx's skin, but his body was already burned with the exertion of digging those wretched holes. His jaw clenched tightly as he replayed the mind-numbing task in his head. Suddenly, a forceful shoulder collided with his, causing him to stumble and break from his thoughts.His gaze shot up, his eyes narrowing in a glare at the person responsible for his near fall. And there, standing before him, was the epitome of an insufferable jerk. Blue eyes stared back at him, a sarcastic grin playing on his thin lips. A tattoo adorned his neck, while his head boasted a buzz cut.Nyx fought the urge to deliver a punch to the jerk's nose. He despised human contact, finding it repulsive and distasteful. "Sorry, Nyx. Didn't see you there," the offender sneered with a sarcastic breath. Nyx clenched his jaw, furrowing his brows as he felt his anger rise within him."Fuck off," he muttered sharply, watching as the jerk threw his head back and let o

Athena sat in the monitor room, her eyes fixed on the grainy CCTV footage of Nyx's therapy sessions with his previous therapists. Dr. Jimin, a compassionate and dedicated psychiatrist, had been determined to help Nyx, but now his expression showed a sense of defeat."I've been searching for his emotions, but it's like he doesn't have any," Dr. Jimin confessed, his voice laced with frustration. He cared deeply for all his young patients and was genuinely moved by their stories and struggles. The lack of progress with Nyx seemed to weigh heavily on him.Athena looked at Dr. Jimin, understanding the helplessness he felt. Their efforts to unlock Nyx's emotions had yielded no results thus far. She spoke, her voice calm but tinged with empathy, "People can disconnect from their emotions for various reasons, sometimes as a survival mechanism. For some, like Nyx, it becomes a habitual way of life, long after the danger has passed. We have to remember that, for them, emotions have been a sourc

Visiting The DenAfter Nyx returned to his cell, his mind was consumed with thoughts of his encounter with Athena. He couldn't shake the feeling that she was different from others, unafraid of him despite his reputation. He wondered why she seemed impervious to fear, or if she was merely putting up a front. However, deep down, he knew she was genuinely different, and that intrigued him.Later, during their scheduled therapy session, Nyx was once again led to the same bland room as the day before. The guards secured him to his chair as Athena entered. She couldn't help but wish that the environment could be less gloomy, but she understood the necessity of such measures in a place like this.She thought back to her previous patient, Kay, who also suffered from DID and bipolar disorder. She had attempted to understand the experiences of her patients, like the presence of different personalities and how they surfaced during vulnerable moments. But Nyx was an enigma, and he wasn't forthcom

the villain is in love "You've got sessions with Miss Athena. Now move," the guard barked at Nyx, prompting him to stand up and extend his hands for the restraints. Nyx let out a resigned sigh, his mind clouded with a jumble of emotions and thoughts. With a nod, he complied and began walking towards the guard, his wrists bound by cold metal chains. As he passed the dimly lit hallway, the sound of his shackles reverberated, accompanying him on his journey. He couldn't help but notice the other prisoners in their cells, their presence like ghosts lingering in the shadows. Some jeered and threw mocking comments his way.

The hospital was abuzz with chaos as Athena entered. This hospital belonged to her family, and her brother Jin now served as its head after their father's retirement. The moment she stepped in, most of the staff recognized her; she was the daughter of the late doctor who had decided to retire, especially after the death of his beloved wife. The secretary, Anna, informed her, "Your father is in room 201. Dr. Jin is with him right now." Athena wasted no time and hurriedly made her way to her father's hospital room. As she entered, she found her father lying on the hospital bed, with Jin checking his vitals and various machines hooked up to him. "What happened?" Athena asked with concern. "He had a heart attack. I'm glad I was there on time," Jin explained, sighing in relief. He gestured for Athena to sit beside him, and without hesitation, she took the seat next to her father. She gently held his hand in hers and asked, "Is his heart rate stable now?" "He's stable," Jin replied, run

Uncalled Heat As Athena stepped back into her apartment that evening, a heavy weariness settled upon her shoulders, a physical reminder of the demanding day she had at the prison. The almost 12-hour shift had taken its toll on her, leaving her body feeling drained and her mind exhausted.

The thought lingered in her mind, wondering if she would ever get used to the intense demands of her job. Despite her hopes of adjusting, the constant emotional and mental strain seemed daunting. Still, Athena reminded herself that she had chosen this path and that she had a purpose to fulfill.
