"sounds like you are really attached to him from the begining." Kirsten says as she laces her fingers together as she glances to the sink instead. "I have no right to have feelings for him. Not after I heard from you. So I won't try to get in the way. I'll support every decision you make. Because I love you."

"I really appreciate it, but I want you to step away if you feel in any way suffocated. I don't force you." Lilith explains as she walks over to the sink and wraps her arms around her neck, making Kirsten to feel her eyes slowly soak up from the tears before hugging her back.

The feeling of guilt eats at her throat as she takes in the fruity scent from her clothes and body. A scent so warm and tender.

Making her regret her decision to even try to sabotage her pregnancy and kill the child Hades wants to see so badly.

She wouldn't forgive herself.

A smile slowly curves to her lips as she stares into the darkness of her eyelids, happy enough she gets to remain sane with Lilith here.

    Lilith takes in a deep breath as she stares up at the mansion belonging to her mother and father. The very same people planning their speeches for their dinner.Luckily enough for the batch of people coming to get scolded, there were no reporters or fame seekers by the large gates up front.The media will not catch wind of it anytime from now and will make it easy to send out the word if everything goes well.Lilith could bring out Hades as her baby's father and soon to be husband without the risk of Ethan calling him out for a murder in the posts.They needed their father to clear it up at all costs.They just have to."We don't need to get in just yet. We can relax for a moment." Hades' warm void soothes into her ears, getting Lilith to calm down as she glances from the mansion and to his eyes. "We can sit in here for a moment, up until we can go out. How about that?""Yeah...." Lilith nods her head with a small smile tagging her lips. Hades smiles back and reaches out his hands for

    Hades can't help but glance around awkwardly as the small but visible sweat drops start to cloud his forehead from the nervousness eating at him.He drops his gaze to the ground and runs his fingers along his trousers as he can tell Lilith is shaking right beside him as well.The food in front of them slowly starts to get cold as they all remain silent while the two house owners eat in silence."Please have the meal. You don't need to be too tense when eating. You need the energy." Dereck, Ariel and Lilith's dad finally speaks after a while as he lifts his wine glass towards his lips. "It's getting cold and cold food doesn't sit well."Hades glances at Lilith who is still staring down at her plate of well grilled steak.He clenches his jaw as he slowly shuts his eyes, knowing he promised her he would be strong for the both of them.Taking a small deep breath, he straightens his back and reaches for her fork and knife beside the place, taking her by surprise as she finally glances up a

    "that's not an excuse for what you did to our poor Ariel." Derek hisses as he points his fork towards Martin who locks eyes with him. "It was an embarrassment to her and the family. We, unlike you, are always being watched like hawks by the news and press. When you did that, it was almost over the news and we had to pay hush money to keep it from going far. Trillions had to be handed out to something we could have avoided. The only reason they did not move is because of the rumors about the truth. It would be obvious to the public eye and I had to avoid it at all costs.""Your daughter was assaulted and all you cared about is how it would look?" Hades asks with a glare as he stares at Derek who slwoly turns his gaze to him. "Despite the rumors, your daughter is always to priority.""Are you questioning my love for my daughter, boy?" Derek grits his teeth at Hades who clearly has a problem with keeping his mouth shut. "What better can you tell me?""I'm going to be a father soon. I mos

    "Darling... We didn't mean to-." Victoria is cut short as Lilith raises her eyes to glare at her own mother sending everyone aback."I know you didn't mean to. But you did. You left me in the shadows. Unhappy, engaged to a man I didn't love, forced me to date him when we first met. Just because you thought he was a decent guy." Lilith explains as Hades raises his brows in astonishment.Ethan wasn't Lilith's choice?"But you seemed happy with him... I thought you loved him." Victoria says as she glances a her husband for help when he really doesn't say a thing. "You were always together.""I did learn to like him. But then I saw Hades again, at his college dorm when I visited Ethan. He just walked past me, oblivious to my existence and I was reminded of my love for him." Lilith explains as she glances to the table instead, smiling to her own memory. "He wasn't the Hades I remembered. He looked older, more fierce and more confident in the way he carried himself. He looked like he could

    Hades sighs out and grabs Lilith's shoulder, slightly pulling her away from the door that keeps the dangerous and sinister Ethan locked behind.Just the mere thought of meeting him after literally stabbing him and threatening to expose all the hidden parts of his life has him knowing Ethan is bound to go through all great lengths to end Hades and Lilith's relationship.Even if he won't live with Lilith, he'd still do it."Let's think about this... We don't know what he'd do. Of course he promised not to lay a hand on us... But the Ethan I know would rather see me die even if he'd be in jail for it." Hades expresses as they stop at the door and glances into Lilith's unhinged eyes.She clearly does not care about the consequences or Ethan alone."Relax, Hades." Lilith smiles charmingly as she reaches a hand up to his cheek and gently caresses his cheek with her finger. "He wont hurt us, Ethan won't cause damage as he did to you. The Ethan I know isn't psychotic.""But the one I knew was

    "Ethan please just understand..." Lilith pleads as she reaches out to hold his cheek when he forcefully slaps her hand away, getting her to step back in horror as the pain stings in her wrist.Hades finally steps in between Lilith and Ethan, feeling his throat ache from the soap of Lilith's hand."Don't touch her again like that." Hades hisses as he steps closer to Ethan who stares back at him with a blank expression. Not caring about what he did. "Or else the body part you touch on her again will be the missing part on you.""Sure." Ethan rolls his eyes as he steps away from him from mere irritation and not because he was frightened of him. "I'm the bad guy now, aren't I? I'm the only causing all your unhappiness. You're all being so selfish and inconsiderate to those around you... What if Hades did that to you, leave you alone because he impregnated another woman. What if, for you Hades, Lilith left you for me, because she's carrying my child. How would you have handled this?

    Hades sighs out as he reaches his hand to his temple and gently massages it as Ethan stays silent, still visibly annoyed and reluctant to accept the harsh reality that Lilith is disappearing from his life and he's losing to the man he clearly doesn't want to lose to."It would be best if you just suck it up as a man like I did before." Hades begins as Lilith glances up at him with furrowing brows, hoping he won't say anything too cold and traumatic for him to bear. "Kirsten left this all aside. But why won't you?""Kirsten?" Ethan chuckles out as he folds his arm to his chest and clicks his tongue while glancing around. "You don't know anything about her. You want to pin it on me? She's my accomplice.""Kirsten wouldn't get involved with a sorry excuse like you." Hades rolls his eyes as Ethan smirks out and raises his brows in question as a mocking expression paints itself onto his face."Is that what she told you?" He asks as his own jealousy blinds his thoughts. "We both were on the

But it wasn't too big of a deal.But seeing Lilith in a state so fragile and the fact that Lilith is looking forward to seeing her child is only making her panic rise from the fear for Lilith's own mental wellbeing.She knows for a fact Lilith will crack and she's scared for her."I swear I thought I-.""If it dies I swear on my life I'll KILL YOU MYSELF!" Lilith screams out as she sends a venomous glare towards Kirsten who shrinks back from the look in Lilith's eyes. "How .... How could you do this to me... I thought we were friends... I trusted you!""Lilith, baby, calm down... You'll make it worse if you don't calm down for a bit." Victoria says as she places a hand over her daughter's chest and tries to calm her down.

    "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

    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.

    "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

    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

    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

    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

    [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 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.
