I opened my eyes to the same scene. The black fabric hanging above my head with the sound of fire crackling in the distance. I stayed still just staring at the fabric.

"I know you're awake Isabella."

I could feel anger already growing within my belly as I slowly sat up and turned towards the fire. He was lounging on the chaise nearby the fireplace. His arms were partially hidden behind the furniture as his attention was to the flickering flames. His head was somewhat tame and slicked back a bit. Yet again he was shirtless and barefoot as well. I felt my heart began to quicken and my cheeks go warm but I shook my head. Punishing my eyes for looking.

"How do you always know I'm awake?" I questioned him while keeping my eyes on the window. Every time I have woken up he has somehow knew.

"I have my ways." He replied as he picked up a goblet from the table, which I hadn't know before, and drank from it. I sighed as I tried to control my anger that was already growing. He didn't want to answer my question but he can sit there just to intimidate me? I rubbed the sleep from my eyes as his voice rang throughout the room. "Alice told me about your outburst yesterday."

I snorted as I rolled my eyes. "Outburst?" I replied as I looked his way and cocked my head to the side. "I wouldn't call it an outburst."

"Explain it to me then." He said as he turned his head my way and looked at me with his red eyes, that had somewhat darkened. His rested the goblet on his thigh not moving from his position. His stance made me angry. He didn't seemed fazed by how I felt at all. But...I felt to tell him everything. Although he seemed arrogant he honestly felt receptive to what I had to say.

"I was happy." I said as I climbed out of the bed and stood a good distance away from him and looked straight into his eyes. "I had a family with my mom and servants. I finally had the freedom to roam around in the forest and enjoy nature. Then you came, in the midst of my happiness and had to destroy it all. In one day I went from a happy woman to a skittish, frightened victim! Now I am to be married by the god of the Underworld and you question me about an outburst?" I could feel my voice rising as I unknowingly stepped closer to him. His face stayed neutral and it just angered me more.

He slowly placed the goblet back on the table and stood before him. He towered above me but I didn't cower before him. "If you say your old life was so great then you know nothing, little girl. You're mother should've done more for you instead of giving you the illusion of freedom."

For a split second I couldn't control myself as I raised my hand and smacked him across his left cheek.

"Don't you dare speak about my mother!" I yelled in his face as I I tried my best to claw and punch him. I wanted to cause him pain. I wanted to hurt him for all the pain he put me through. "She is the only person who has ever cared for me! Unlike the likes of you! You're a monster and full of evil, just like the tales said you were!"

I felt a roar sound throughout a room, as if a wild animal had gotten loose. I felt his hands grab my shoulders and force my to look at him. I then saw his right hand raise in the air and strike my face. I tried to grab my cheek as I felt instant pain but his arms held me back. His face was hard and his eyes were red as fire. "You dare to insult me in my kingdom little girl? You forget that you are in my domain! My world! And if I so much as wanted to take you know or marry you I can do so against your control!"

"I would never marry you! I'd rather spend my life alone that be stuck in marriage with you forever!" I screamed back as I tried to ignore the pain in my face.

He grabbed my chin and pulled my face so close to him I could see gold and orange embers within his irises.

"You wish for loneliness, then so be it!"

He released my shoulders and I fell to the ground. I quickly placed my hand over my face as unshed tears started to blind my vision. He stormed to the door and opened it . Before leaving he turned around. "This is the future you want, then this is the future you will have." He then slammed the door behind so hard he almost broke my eardrums.

I leaped from my spot on the ground and ran towards the door. I turned the knob only it wouldn't budge. I screamed as I banged on the door.

"I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!" I screamed from the top of my lungs as I used all the strength in my body to break the door down but after sometime I had hardly made a dent to the wooden door.

I turned to see the goblet still on the table and ran to it and threw it on the ground. Red wine spilled everywhere but I didn't care. I threw the goblet in the fire and watched as the flames blew up before settled back down. I pushed the chaise over unto its side and turned over the table as well. I went to the bed and threw off the covers and pillows.

After some more destruction to his room, I finally gave into my exhaustion and collapsed on the empty bed.

I hate you, Hades. I hate you so much...

Were my final thoughts before I gave into sleep.


I know that escalated really quick but the tension was really rising. But you know what they say...it gets worse before it gets better. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter as much as I did.
