Persephone's face drained of color, fueled by anger. The hand gripping the pan trembled with intensity.
Seamus took several deep breaths in an attempt to regain composure. His gaze shifted to Persephone, and he
forcefully seized the pan from her grasp, removing her apron before pushing her aside.

Seamus glared at her sternly. "I'll serve him, alright? Just hoping he'll let you go and cease his enchantments!"
Unexpectedly, Morpheus' deep voice echoed. "I'm a humble man. I can't afford to be served."
Persephone stood stunned. After sleeping, he had somewhat recovered, but his face still looked pale.
Some of his wounds had reopened, staining the gauze crimson.
Persephone searched for the first aid kit, but she stopped as he grabbed her.

Yet, the vivid dream from last night lingered.
"She's a noble swan, and you're a dog stuck in the mud!"
A pang struck Morpheus' heart. He gnashed his teeth and forcefully pushed her arm away!
Persephone staggered, dumbfounded and confused by his sudden action.
"Morpheus..." After calming herself, she cautiously asked, "Does your wound hurt?"
