Later that night when Daisy pulls the riding boots off, she sees the blood spilling from the soles of my feet, and there is so much of it, this human blood, smearing on the carpet and on the sheets and all over Daisy’s hands until her fingernails are encrusted with my pain. I stare at it, fascinated, and yet I do not feel afraid.

“What is this?” Daisy asks, her eyes huge. “What have you done to yourself, miss? We have to call the doctor, miss, we have to.”

I place my finger to my lip.

“But—”

I take her stained hands in mine, urging her to keep my secret.

“Okay, miss,” she says, and she’s confused, as if unsure as to why she is agreeing to my demands. “I won’t tell nobody.” And somehow, despite how chatty I have found Daisy to be, I sense that I can trust her.

And I smile. Oliver will be mine. It is worth it. All of this will be worth it.
