This is my first story, and I plan on making it a series. Please tell me what you think.

I watched silently, my head tilted sideways to the right side as the thick straw colored liquid drained from the bag into my IV. Once the fluid hit my vein, it burned badly, and I felt as if my body was trying to expel it. I had no idea why they would pump that liquid into me, for it was know to increase one's fertility. The heart monitor beeped steadily, and the vitals monitor also chimed in. Closing my eyes, I attempted to slow my heartbeat down. My entire life has been dedicated to mediation, first because my family had ordered it, and later because I chose to.
If I slowed my heartbeat down, I was hoping that my captor or one of his henchmen would come to see what was going on. They didn't see me as a threat due to me being "damaged", but I planned to use that to my advantage. The heart monitor started to beat slower, but I still persisted in slowing my heartbeat down further.
No one was coming in the room even as the monitor started a rapid alarm, and I could hear the camera swiveling its lens in my direction. I bit the inside of my mouth, waited until enough blood had pooled inside of the hollow under my tongue, and expelled it with a set of nasty bloody coughs. Letting my head drop to the side again, I laid still in wait. Sure enough, the door to my cell swung open, and footsteps echoed in the almost empty room.
The footsteps were unhurried, almost casual in the way they approached, and I immediately knew that this must be Daniel, my captor. The last time I had seen him was when he was kidnapped me from my home, and previously to that, it was more than 3 years ago that we last exchanged words. Not much had changed other than his height, he looked to be 5'9 now, but still had the same dark hair, eyes, and stature as before. I saw all of this through the slits of my eyelids, not wanting him to see I was simply faking.
He was armed with a wet washcloth, with the extra water dripping on to the ground. Grabbing my face with one hand, he started to wipe away the blood away where it had fallen. I kept my heartbeat slow, and my breaths shallow. Feeling his hands framing my face, I thought back to a better time in my childhood before everything went wrong. Back then, my parents thought I was just a normal mutant, but then when my body refused to do what it was supposed to, everything went downhill.
