Athens, GreeceLARA’S POVI sat at the breakfast table with Claudia and Xander. The breakfast table is kind of empty today. Soussana has already left saying that she will be back for the party. Suspicious woman. She had expressed her distaste for Hades’ actions rather strongly saying that she can’t see him running after just an ordinary girl instead of being here with his family. Thanos has also left saying that he will be back to welcome the new bride.“Flora isn’t here yet. Did you not call her?” I asked the maid standing behind my seat.“Yes, ma’am I did. She said that she will down in a moment”My husband’s death has changed nothing. He was by no means a patient man. Hades is just like him so I can’t feel any difference. But still, it’s better in a way.Hades knows that I raised him. He gives me the respect of her mother. Respect not Love. After his mother’s death, I had no interest in becoming the typical stepmom. His father was already hard on him after Hera’s death. He loved h

ANONYMOUS POVI woke up with a pounding headache. Voices kept drifting in and out as I stumbled into consciousness. I had heard the voices even after I stopped seeing things. Yes, there are times when I could stop seeing things.I am a monster. this is why I am born like this. I opened my eyes. I am still here. was I thinking that miraculously I will be outside If I wake up? No, this time I will not listen to my brain. I refuse to get into trouble because of it. I will prove to the doctors who take care of me that I am a good boy. I will obey them. They are doing all this for my benefit.Everything is foggy. Something kept filling my stomach. Then I realized that a wire is taped to my cheek too. It is something I hate the most. The feeding tubes. I groaned.My hands are still strapped to the bed. This way I will not be able to hurt someone. I started to droop on my own. How long was I out? I don’t remember. Again I could sense something pulling me to sleep and just like that everythin

Jace’s POV: “Sir there is a broken tree on the road. I tried to stop but the brake didn’t work.” it was already night. I had hoped that I will go to the hotel and sleep. Too much for a little wish. It was dark outside and there was no one on the road except us. The driver got out of the car. Behind him, I went too. It was already going to rain and now this. It was a large tree. The locals must have been aware of this because there is only us here. No one else. “Sir there is a way here.” A path went into the forest. The signboard read a village. “We should go to ask help” He suggested. The weather was already getting rough. I took my gun out of the car pocket and put it into mine. We don’t know what kind of people we will meet there. “Yes, let’s go" We walked for about thirty minutes and reached a village. The village of white houses. It was enlightened by the lamps people had outside of their houses. We saw a cafe and started walking towards it. The weather screamed calm before

JACE’S POV “Yes, but we are interested in getting to know the people here closely.” I told him basically to see his reaction. He remained quiet for a moment. Then said “Ohh. If that is the case, I will tell you the place after you have ordered. “He chuckled at his own words nervously. We placed the order and after that, he led her daughter to the back room. “Something’s fishy boss,” Castor said in a low voice as we were the only ones left at the table. “Yes definitely. Let’s roam the city and ask people” I suggested. He nodded his head in acknowledgment. I started looking outside of the café from the large window. Some people walked without even glancing inside. A woman passing by the café caught his attention. She had a baby cart that she was pushing. She stopped for a moment. Her eyes met mine. She passed me a worried glance. She was looking at something behind my back. The next moment her face was filled with a horrified expression. She started pulling the cart and just lik

Anonymous POVThe blackness which had accumulated behind my eyes from a long time decided to vanish as the White light pricked at my eyelids and forced me into the living world again. Reality again. I would rather run from it and never look back at it.Slowly I descended into the world where lies pain. At first, my head seemed fuzzy. It feels like a fog had accumulated and made everything dusty.Still, I tried to make sense of my surroundings. A pained sigh escaped my lips and evaporated in nothingness. I am here again. What is my sin that I am left to cry here forever?Forever? Did I think that it will last forever? Do I believe it?A shudder passed through my soul with the realization of what I believe deep inside me.How long will I stay like this? I am miserable and time refuses to turn in my favor.No savior. No light.Why do I keep searching for the light? Why am I even searching for the light? This place itself is full of lights. So why do I consider myself to be in the dark? I

Unknown POVThrough the camera, I saw him open his eyes. He looked here and there, trying to gain consciousness of what is happening. Of course, he would do that. It's just his habit.He has been on sleeping meds for about two days. We normally drug him just to teach him a lesson. This time We kept him drugged up for a long. We had to deal with some matters. Some outside world matters. Some problems have appeared. New people coming and going always are a hassle. We can’t take care of those problems while babysitting his ass.The poor child must be thinking he has been drugged because he is sick, bad, and is being punished. He kind of is sick. He has some rich ass eating problem so It’s is very difficult to look after such him.Mostly we keep him gagged up so we don’t have to listen to him. I don’t think that he will be able to speak if he even gets a chance to. With all those feeding tubes and gags he must have lost his voice by now. Dumb baby.Good! At least he will remain shut up. T

CLAUDIA POV I plopped onto my bed with my feet touching the floor. Everything is changing very fast. Loyalties are changing, faces are changing.It is very difficult to find the ones who are on your side. Will Hades be able to handle it? He has spent a long time with theíos. He must have learned a lot from him.We do not carry the family genes of remarkable intelligence; so, in more than one way we are alike. We are to work to get anything we desire.The layer will be here to hand over the will when Hades returns. The golden will of The Decardo family that will ensure Hades’ rule over all family estates and money.We shared the hate for that sorry excuse of a father. Now with him dead, we are free. We are free to do what we want.The human world is so unfair. It’s the law of nature that Happiness for one party brings sadness for the other one. Profit for someone, loss for another one.I stood up a went to the walk-in closet which is further attached to the make-up room and bathroom.

Jace POVShe is Alone. So probably nothing. Jonas is capable of taking care of things if something went back there. I want to go back to her.I cannot think about others things when I have more important on my hand. I groaned at the fact that this kid matter is taking too long.If he is dead, I have to find proof. I rubbed my eyes. Since I have entered this village it is like the strings have unrolled themselves to get me tangled in them forcefully. Everyone is suspicious here. From the café owner to her daughter, then the child kidnapping scene, and then that tow truck man.I have nothing to do with their crises but it felt as if they were begging for help. Were they afraid to ask for help in front of the people? Demi the café owner’s daughter. Her expressions. She is in trouble. I raked my hand through the hair.The phone beeped indicating that the message I had wanted to deliver was at last been received. Fuck him. Took him so long to answer. Maybe he is interested in sorting out t
