A Dream

Just as they were about to make their move, Arix, who seemed to be in a deep sleep, suddenly sighed and softly caught Vita's wrist, stopping him from giving her the potion.

"Arix… you're awake," Vita stammered, clearly taken aback as he looked into her open eyes.

Arix nodded slowly, then let her gaze drift to Cupid and the others.

They quickly looked away, guilt written all over their faces.

Cupid was so startled that she darted behind Sylvana, trying to hide.

Just when everyone braced themselves for Arix to get upset, they were all taken aback by her reaction.

"Thank you," Arix said softly, her voice filled with gratitude instead of anger. She looked at them with warmth in her eyes. She knew they were only worried about her, so how could she possibly be mad at them?

"Arix… you're not mad at us?" Cupid asked cautiously, peeking out from behind Sylvana, her face filled with worry.
