The Contract Twins 9:Dinner
"So, what's the task about?" Lilith sighed as she closed the menu once they were done ordering their food. "Is it about the new recruits?""Um..." Hades cleared his throat as he leaned back to his seat and glanced around himself, watching a few couples here and there and some business meetings here and there.It wasn't too fancy but enough to keep away from noisy children and loud music since Lilith assumed it was for business.Little did she know."Well... Yes." Hades nods just so Lilith wouldn't get up the moment he says his Uncle lied. "It's about them. He was asking if you could pick ten from them, who would they be and the reasons why." Hades cleverly said as he nodded to his own words.Lilith pouts her lips for a moment, stuck in thought as she glances up at the ceiling, thinking carefully who it could be."There are in fact a few I know are the best. There's Jane Millet, Frank Woods, Christen Parker, Gwen Holland, Vincent Jacobs, Lorain Lamber, Troy Williams, Dexter Harbor and
Huling Na-update : 2023-09-22The Contract Twins 10: Dismissed Feelings
Lilith watched as Hades left the place before reaching for her phone and dialing Ethan's number as she got up from her seat and grabbed her bag. "Where are you?" She asked once he picked up as she began to walk towards the door. "I went back to the studio. You can meet me there." Ethan said on the other end, getting her to sigh out as she pushed open the glass doors and stepped out. "Okay, I'll be there in a minute." She said before ending the call, hardly giving him some time to reply. She walked past Hades' car just as he got in. She glanced down at her phone once more, checking her emails, only to find it flooding with warnings from her director. She had missed a lot of lessons because of work. She tried to explain it to him, but he didn't want to listen and blamed her for slacking off. This time she was an hour late but can still make it. Or else she would get fired. She stopped at a stop sign and began to wave at the taxis speeding by, rushing with their last clients home

The moment Hades made it back into his house, he walked straight into the kitchen, heading for the cupboard just above the sink with all the alcohol his friend had collected since the past weeks.He grabbed a bottle and instantly pulled the cork right off before chugging it down, only to choke when it burned his throat, causing him to stop instantly. A deep sigh escaped his lips as he walked towards his couch, dragging his feet along with him.He threw himself back onto the couch and leaned into it, feeling himself sink right in. His lazy gaze trailed around the room and towards the photos of his roommate and his girlfriend on their countless vacations around the world.The largest photo of them both sat just above the small empty fireplace, staring mockingly at him. It was a photo of Morris and Nora deep diving with a dolphin right beside them, both grinning at the camera as they hugged the dolphin.Hades could only hear it from them since he never tagged along despite having Morris

Struggling to peel his eyes open, Hades could only feel the sharp sting of his head throbbing inside of him from all the alcohol he drunk the other night.He leaned from the couch he had slept on all night and glanced around himself, only to spot Morris sitting cross legged on the floor in front of him, staring intensively as he crushed the many crisps in his mouth."What time is it?" Hades asked as he reached his hand up to his head, stroking his temple."Eleven." Morris replied as a grin spread across his face, noticing Hades' horrified gaze."Why didn't you wake me up!?" He hissed as he stood up, only to flinch and fall back."You seemed tired." Morris shrugged his shoulders as he crumpled the bag of chips into a ball after finishing it. "Plus your hungover doesn't seem to be leaving anytime soon.""I have work you bastard." Hades rolled his eyes and sighed out as he leaned back into the seat. "My uncle will murder me if he finds out I'm skipping work because of a hungover.""Call

Hades sighed out in boredom as he walked towards the door, feeling the starvation roam his stomach.He reached the door and reached out for the handle, opening it fully with an irritated expression when he stepped back in shock as his eyes landed on Lilith's brown gaze.He sent Lilith? Hades thought with wide eyes as Lilith stared back with raised brows.She didn't seem to be coming from work, she was dress in a white dress printed with sunflowers here and there."Oh... Hi.." He trailed off when she furrowed her brows at him and glanced around, seeming confused. "Did my uncle send you?""Yes, otherwise I wouldn't be here." She said as she glanced back at him, getting him to frown a little. "So, are you going to let me in?""Oh." He stepped aside and smiled slightly, knowing she somewhat still wants to be around. Knowing the usual Lilith, she would have most definitely just given him whatever his uncle sent her to give. "Sure come in."She nodded and walked past him, entering the large
Huling Na-update : 2023-09-28The Contract Twins 14: Are You Jealous
The 'until i eat the cupcake' had been long forgotten as she leaned into the sofa with the blanket wrapped her body as her bright brown eyes stared head on at the movie playing on the screen.It had been over an hour since she had arrived but Hades could not shake away the feeling of excitement having her close to him. She didn't retaliate when he offered they had the snacks while watching tv and it gave him a few green lights. She was sitting on the same couch as he was, except, she was sitting at the other end while he sat on the other end as well.Her long dark chocolate hair scattered around the chair with her shampoo after-scent perfuming the air around him. The scent was a soft cucumber, something natural and soft to the nose.Other than her hair is her vanilla scented perfume, it wasn't too strong or mild, it was just enough to catch his attention and want her close to him.He refocused his stare towards the movie, trying to get at least what they were saying. When he was hardl
Huling Na-update : 2023-09-28The Contract Twins 15: Party With A Crush
Hades stared up at the mirror for the hundredth time, trying to fix his hair as the sky around him only became darker by the minute. He was waiting for Lilith who was getting ready for the party.After they watched the movie together, they just had lunch from the meals she bought for him, because even he wouldn't be able to finish it all by himself, and Lilith just didn't seem to feel like leaving. So he tried his best to make her eat as slow as possible, bringing up random jokes that she clearly didn't laugh to but still listened to him nonetheless.But despite his efforts, she still left him right after the meal and he decided to drive her home himself, since she didn't come by any car.Because she didn't have one.He asked her why she wanted to leave despite knowing too well she wouldn't spend countless hours with him even if she had nothing to do. She had told him she needed to do something strictly important and private before the party the next day.It wasn't her acting lessons
Huling Na-update : 2023-09-28The Contract Twins 16: August
Hades stared down at the screen of his phone as he waited for Morris' reply from his text, telling him he just arrived with Lilith who was still standing beside him as they stood at the door of the house, right inside where the music beamed into their ears with the massive heat from the dancefloor. It didn't take long until Morris appeared from the thick crowd and instantly glanced towards Lilith whose eyes wondered into the crowd, as if looking for someone. "Damn." He sighed out as he shifted his gaze to Hades who smiled at him slightly. "You really brought her. I thought it was a joke." "I thought it was too." Hades nodded and glanced to his side to Lilith before turning back to Morris. "She said she was only here for the drinks." "Oh?" He asked as Morris turned to Lilith who finally landed her eyes on him. "The ones on the table just ran out, but we have a stack up stairs. You can go grab a pick if you're down for it." "Why wouldn't she be down for it? That's the whole reason

The Contract Twins Final Chapter
"wait! I'm not done yet!" Victoria whines as Lilith lifts the child off her hands and back into hers, tires from all of the people that keep holding her son. "Lilith....""He needs to eat." Lilith explains as she smiles while gently bouncing her baby. "Don't you wanna eat Bobba? Oh yes you do.""Stop calling him Bobba or else he will get used to that. Call his real name, Aiden." Victoria whines some more as she watches Lilith clearly not wanting to give back her grandson to her."Baby Bobba likes it." Lilith says in a childish voice, though mostly speaking to her child than her mother.Hades on the other hand can only stare in envy when non of them even let him carry his own son.It has been three weeks since his birth and he's barely carried him if at all."I can't wait to see the news." Derek chuckles under his breath as he taps the send button, posting all the photos he has kept for this day. "The headlines will all about Hades.""You've posted it?" Hades asks, planning to distract
The Contract Twins 109: the one and only
Even though it would have been the perfect moment to reveal Hades, Derek thought it would be even more surprising if the news was given soon after Lilith had her child.He wanted a public uproar and chaos. To twist head and make everyone gasp.So the excuse he gave the media was that she was pregnant, and the wedding was postponed.No one questioned it.Ethan hadn't come up to protest about the news. He's almost simply vanished from the face of the earth without a trace, so it was the perfect plan with the perfect process."Are you sure you're okay?" Hades asks for the hundredth time, getting Lilith to groan out as she drops the tablet she is holding to the bed before glaring up at him."I'm fine! Stop asking!" She hisses and places the tablet up to her face, playing the game she was playing. "If you keep asking I'll get more stressed....""Okay." Hades sighs and plants a small kiss on her forehead before getting up and walking towards the nurse who is simply preparing some equipment.
The Contract Twins 108: pregnancy pressure
"it's so silent." Lilith chuckles as she stares down at her steaming hot bowl of soup holding a few chunks of chicken and veggies.It was more of a chicken stew than a soup at this point, even though Lilith's mother claimed it was a soup, a soup she claims is good for her health."I like it." She smiles towards Hades who hasn't been talking for the past hour since the whole scenario ended with Ethan and Kirsten.It still didn't sit right with him that Ethan almost didn't put up a fight except insult him. He thought Ethan would end up fighting him to the ground just to be stubborn and resilient. But he didn't.He just walked out of the mansion just like that."Are you okay?" Lilith asks as she reaches her hand over to Hades who then finally snaps from his thoughts and smiles at her the instant their eyes met."Just thinking about nothing. And yeah, it really is silent, in a good way. I don't have to fight Ethan anymore." Hades chuckles as he laces her hand with his. "It's still a shame
The Contract Twins 107: i wont the war
Hades makes his way into the corridor and nearly bumps into Derek who was holding a wine glass in one had and his phone in the other.The wine nearly spills his silky pajama set but lucky it really doesn't.Hades doesn't bother apologizing as his mind is fogged entirely with what he should do with Ethan. The only one still too stubborn to simply leave them alone."You look like you are about to commit murder." Derek points out as he swirls the contents in his wine glass. "Is it Ethan?""I'm just thinking of what to say to him." Hades shrugged his shoulders as he glanced at the wine Derek is sipping on but knows it's not the right time for him to even drink. "Last time I was talking to him, felt like I was talking to a child who didn't want to listen.""Ethan has always been stubborn. Which was why I liked him and wanted him to be a part of our family. He's always been like a son I've always wanted to have but never did." Derek points out as he blindly smiles to himself and takes a sma
The Contract Twins 106: let me do it
Hades sighs out as he leans from the hug and sits up, gazing down at her as she watches his every move."I'll get you some breakfast. Try to stay in bed and relax." Hades says as he gets up and walks towards the doors. "Don't go anywhere, okay?""Yeah." She nods her head with a smile as she leans on her elbow to stare at him a little more. "I want some meat in that.""I know." Hades winks before stepping out and closing the door, leaving Lilith to frown slightly and lean back onto the bed, feeling her entire body shudder from the news the previous night.Tears soaked her eyes as she stares at the ceiling, almost losing all hope in even becoming a mother at this point, too afraid that the second one can also follow it's sibling.She reaches her hand over her head as the tears silently fall to the sides of her eyes, unable to keep them from falling while her body shakes.She wanted to cry, but she couldn't if Hades was also affected by it. She didn't want him to break into pieces like s
The Contract Twins 105: she's the one for me
Hades can't stop staring down at Lilith who had to be forced into a deep sleep, just for the sake of their surviving child.He felt at fault for losing one of the twins, since he put her on the spotlight of trouble, from planting the seed down to having to force her to make the decision of being with him or Ethan.He knows if he simply vanished without a trace, Lilith would have lived a miserable life, but that wouldn't have taken long to end since Ethan was always trying hard to make her love him again. She would have eventually fallen into his trap and lived a much healthier life. Away from all the pain and agony.Maybe that's just it. Maybe Hades shouldn't have stepped into her life.Maybe he should have just watched her marry another man and admit he lost.Would things have been much better now?Hades turns his eyes towards the doctor's table instead, staring at nothing in particular as he wondered what happened to the 'body' of his child.He knew it could be almost too small and
The Contract Twins 104: If the bad didn't exist
When the doors finally opened, Hades stands up and clenches his jaw as he watches Lilith's father step out with a rather gloomy expression on his face, getting his heart to sink into his stomach as he approaches him."Is she alright?" Hades asks as he stands in front of the man he once feared, "is the baby... Okay?""Lilith is okay." Derek nods his head as he scans the room and frowns deeply at the sight of the two, Ethan and Kirsten who also stare at him expectedly. "The baby is okay as well. No need to worry, Hades."Hades sighs out in relief as he smiles slightly and glances over Derek's shoulder and into the room where he can see Lilith seated on the bed, looking rather.... Pale."Why do you all seem really upset?" Hades chuckles slightly as he glances back up at Derek., Feeling his heart tug against his chest. "Lilith doesn't look that happy.""Sit down, Hades." Derek sighs out as he holds onto Hades' shoulder and gently brings him to sit down on a small stool just behind his fee
The Contract Twins 103: forgiveness isn't easy
[2:12 a.m]The clock above the ticks roughly around two in the morning, hardly getting the anxious Kirsten who yawns in fatigue as she stares at the door that Lilith had vanished off to with the doctor the instant he returned with a few equipment and another nurse.Her mother and father remain locked into the room with her, along with Ariel who didn't want to leave her twin's side as they examine her condition with the machines this time, wanting to get accurate results.It would be easier and less costly to get her to the hospital instead, but the parents couldn't resist the stalkers around from taking private details into the mass media.It would cause an uproar before they can really fix anything."For a moment I thought I could get away with it, since I believed the pills won't change anything. But even after I didn't hurt her .... Things between us aren't good anyway." Kirsten sighs out as she runs a hand through her hair and bites down on her bottom lip, getting Hades to glance
The Contract Twins 102: truth
The soft buzz ringing into her ear slowly fades off as her heavy eyelid finally peel back, bringing in the soft light from the orange bulb hanging over above her.She lays there for a moment as she feels the unsettling pain roaming her stomach like a serpent.Slithering through every part of her abdomen and leaving a bearable venomous sting.Lilith turns her head to the side as her head feels like a large rock, making her neck ache from the slight movement as her eyes land on the q by the bed stool.It is well past eleven.The room is silent but the door is open. Faint but audible voices can be heard from the corridor, many at once and others sounding awfully aggressive than most.It doesn't take her a moment long before she remembers why she was asleep. SeeShe sits up in haste and glances down at her thighs, finding nothing too alarming other than the fact she is wearing different clothes altogether.Her eyes dart around the empty room and notices a few empty medicine bottles and th
