“the gleam in your eyes, a gemstone found in hell.”

Daisy’s POV

I woke up with a start. The sunlight filtering through the curtains. I blinked, momentarily disoriented.

The room became clearer, and I panicked, taking in the different layout of the room.

This wasn’t my room.

“You are awake,” Astrid commented, walking in with a cup in hand.

“I brought you here after you had fallen asleep, I couldn’t drag you to your room, it was easier here,” she said, answering my unasked question.

“Thanks,” I whispered.

“But my room is,” I started to say, trying to process her excuse.

Astrid looked away in guilt, her eyes fixed on the floor avoiding my gaze.

“Astrid,” I called her silence making me anxious.

“I knocked on your door, but Hades refused to open,” she whispered.

My heart dropped at the revelation, Hades had purposely ignored her, not caring if I was safe or not.

My face contorted in anger, he couldn’t lock me out of my room, “where are you going?” Astrid asked, her voice in panic, rushing

    “the truth is real, but they seldom come.” Daisy’s POV “I am stepping out, there’s food on the counter, and I kept your drugs beside the glass of water,” Astrid barely looked at me as she spoke, and before I could whisper a thank you, she had shut the door on my face. The tension between us was palpable, we barely exchanged words or glances, our only interaction was the constant instruction to take the drugs. I had tried complaining about the sudden increase from a pill to three, but I bit my lips against it. Things were already rocky between us, and I would only further rock the boat if I protested again. I did the cowardly thing ever, accepting the drugs and pretending to take them. It’s easier to accept than to argue, as the saying goes, “saying yes can never be a burden,” It’s almost two weeks, with no contact from Brittany, Priya or Hades. It was like they had completely forgotten about my existence. I finished up the breakfast Astrid had laid out, and hid the

The last was Brittany commenting about the two heart beats that echoed through my stomach. Hades had pressed his ears to my stomach hoping to tell Brittany that she was wrong. Hades raised his head, his eyes gleaming with shock as he confirmed the news. “we are having twins” I whispered softly. Hades wrapped his arms around me, sending warmth through my body as it touched his. “We are having twins” he repeated. Brittany had sneaked out of the room giving us the privacy she knew we needed. “Are you happy?” Hades asked, looking at my face with an unsure look on his face.

I could see the mischievous glint in her eyes and I knew she was about to harass Priya.“You would pay to watch Daisy have sex?” She whispered.Priya stopped, her eyes wide like saucers as she heard the words fly out of Brittany’s mouth.“What, ewwwww no,” she spluttered, shuddering at the thought.“But you just said,” Brittany said, looking like she was trying to understand wh

    “it’s cute how you want my touch for life.”Hades’ POVIt couldn’t get any better than this. I would love to apologize for thinking that when Daisy had marked me that she was possessive and needy, because obviously I hadn’t seen a pregnant Daisy.It has been a rollercoaster of emotions these few months, with lots of highs and a tremendous amount of lows.The highs being the fact that Daisy had become a libidinous teenager, which I wasn’t complaining.A smile formed on my lips as I recalled a night I had woken up to daisy crying loudly in our room.I had assumed it was one of her cravings and I immediately panicked wondering what it was that I would be fetching.“you don’t want me anymore” Daisy cried, tears streaming down her face as she sobbed.“what gave you such outrageous idea?” I asked in a low tone, my heart beating wildly in my chest, noticing the way she was hyperventilating from how long she had cried, the sight alone broke my heart in a thousand pieces.“baby you have to ta
