Since there is going to be 2 Liams in this chapter. Lil Liam is Amira and Killian's son and Liam is the brother.)
I wasn't apart of the group that found Thana but we all made it to an empty house where I let Lil Liam get down after carrying him everywhere. I relaxed on the couch with Killian and he held me knowing that things were not as they always seemed. Everything was seeming to go terribly wrong and the worst part we got some news that Milah had moved on thanks to Neal. Emma used magic to help Thana which I thought was weird cause light magic wasn't working dark one magic was. We were all deciding on what to do next as Felix was tending to Thana when we heard a knock on the door. Emma was the one who answered the door as we all looked.
"Hi. Can I-" Emma started but stopped as the man looked past her towards us but I realized he was looking at Killian.
"Killian?" Liam said
"Liam?" Killian said with a look his arm still around me.
"yes daddy?" Lil Liam said looking at us
"So the rumors are true after all these years." Liam said walking in and he noticed our son. "Who is this?"
"My son Liam. My wife Amira thought it was a good idea to honor you by naming our son after you and I agreed." Killian said
"Your wife?" Liam asked
I stood up with Killian knowing this was a big honor for me to meet the man my husband idolized. "I'm Amira, nice to meet you."
Liam didn't even really acknowledge me as we all went and sat down at the table, I questioned if I did something to offend him. I started realizing Liam thought Killian was dead but we both were very much alive. As we sat in the chair Lil Liam came over and got in my lap as I held him, he'd been staying real close to me since he snuck here to the underworld.
"Liam, what about you? Why are you down here?" Killian asked
"I wish I knew." Liam said, "I spent countless years trying to figure out a reason."
"There is no reason. Hades seems to have the game rigged so no one can leave. Well except those alive like my wife, my sons, myself and my wife's family members." Killian said then looked at me "My brother is proof of that never did a bad thing in his life."
"I remember the stories on our voyages." I said
"Wait, Killian you're alive?" Liam asked
"Aye, brother. I came down here to help Amira find her friend who made a noble sacrifice to save me and the princess." Killian said
"What have I said about referring me that way?" I asked him
"Like it or not you were born a princess, I stole you away turned you into a pirate at your behest." Killian said, "So now we finish the time down here, beat hades my brother gets to move on and we get to raise our sons and our next child."
Killian was looking at me and I was looking at him enjoying his talking but something caught my eye about Liam. Like he didn't approve of me but then with the stories I guess no woman was good enough for his little brother. Still, we went to find the book and had some time to deal with everything. Lil Liam had stayed by helping me while I looked and I looked down at him.
"I'll keep looking go check on your daddy." I said watching him leave as I kept looking.
I almost jumped when Liam was there "Amira, can we talk?" Liam said and I knew to prepare for the worst. I sighed as I watched him "Is this like a protective big brother talk where you want to make sure I'm good enough for Killian?" I asked, just as he was moving to come around me.
"No, because I already know you're not good enough." Liam said
"Excuse me? You don't know a thing about me, I spent years with your brother and he thinks I'm good enough." I said
Liam told me Killian shared what happened how I turned him into a dark one and how I gave in to darkness for love and for the future of my family. I knew Killian knew me better than some story and when we walked down Killian must have noticed I was troubled. I didn't like the fact I had to deal with his brother.
"You All right?" Killian asked me
I merely avoided talking as his brother came down behind me, how could I expect him to understand at the moment being reunited with his hero. When Henry came in and gave us a clue I was relieved but at the same time, I wasn't. I kneeled down some and looked back at my son "You know the drill on my back Liam." I said as my son got on my back and I carried him out without saying anything to Killian. Lil Liam had his father's instincts though as he knew I was upset but said nothing. Killian, my devilishly handsome captain also read me and he caught up to me making me stop and look at him but I kept avoiding eye contact.
"Luv, speak to me." Killian said
"Why?" I asked, my voice about broken "I'm...I'm not.." I started crying my emotions more apparent with carrying our 2nd child. "It doesn't matter, let's get this over with."
Killian let it go for now as Devin stayed with us and Lil Liam's arms were holding onto my shoulders looking over my shoulder as I walked. I wanted to keep things normal but this was a bit much. Regina noticed my behavior and when we separated she took me to the diner with my boys. We had a table and I just didn't know what to do.
"Alright, talk." Regina said
"there isn't anything to talk about." I said
"Amira Selena White-Jones. You are a bad liar right now, somethings bothering you and your pirate saw right through you." Regina said
I had adjusted Lil Liam to my lap to give my back and shoulders a rest. "Maybe, I just needed time to think. His brother isn't what I expected." I said
"He doesn't like you, does he?" Regina asked
"He doesn't think I'm good enough for Killian." Amira said as she looked at Regina "Even after Knowing I'm already married to his brother."
Regina laughed "To be honest, you're too good for him. A princess who ran off with him to be a pirate. I think you knew what you were getting involved in when you left." Regina said
I didn't say anything cause she was right with that as I remembered looking in the tavern. I didn't see anyone who caught my interest till my eyes landed on him. I didn't even realize that I had fallen in love with him just that moment. Regina brought my attention to her and I looked at her.
"talk Amira, you're never going to feel better till you do." Regina said
I adjusted my hold on Lil Liam as I looked at her "He thinks he's high and mighty cause he's Killian's older brother. Well, my son here is named after that man." I said, "It was to be a good reminder for Killian about his brother. I dreamed of meeting the man Killian always talks highly about and I feel disappointed."
"You're only going to feel worse with your mood swings. You can bring down high and mighty. You helped bring me down." Regina reminded me "Be the girl he knows you can and show the brother you're not giving up without a fight."
"Easy for you to say, Killian had built my confidence for years shown me what I lacked and his brother with those simple words broke all the confidence I had." I said without realizing Killian walked in
"Amira, what did Liam do?" Killian said
I froze where I was realizing he heard me and I was scared to say anything. Killian had walked over and carefully moved Lil Liam out of my arms as he had me look at him. I couldn't speak out of what he'd think, Liam was his hero the man he looked up to. One thing he could do was read me like a book he just opened then he looked at Regina.
"What did she tell you?" Killian asked
"Your brother broke her confidence in herself, he said she's not good enough for you." Regina said
"Devin, put Liam on your back and let's go." Killian said
Without warning he had me on his back like old times, wasn't the first time I've been pregnant and he carried me the rest of the way. Turns out Snow found the key to where we needed to go. Killian kept hold of me as we were heading there and I just layed my head against his shoulder. We made it just in time for the door to be opened by Liam. Walking inside there was nothing but looking for the book. You could guess who found it, but I just stayed where I was.
"well we found the book." Emma said as she was looking through it finding pages were gone.
Snow who had come noticed I wasn't really talking and my head was just laying face down in Killian's shoulder. She knew me well enough to know I didn't want to talk about what was wrong. Killian though adjusted me which made me jerk my head up.
"We're dealing with this now." Killian said as he felt me put my head back down. I didn't think he'd take my side with Liam being his idol, role model, and hero.
Killian walked and I wasn't looking "LIAM!" Killian yelled, I flinched a bit knowing this wasn't going to be pretty. I peeked up even though I kept my head against Killian's shoulder.
"What's wrong Killian?" Liam asked
"Did you tell my wife, that she's not good enough for me?" Killian asked
"What? You think I would do that?" Liam asked
"I know when she's lying, I taught her everything she knows about being a pirate! The only people she can't lie to very well is me and her sister." Killian said, "You just met her today and you think she's not good enough? She's royalty, it is I who did not deserve her but she chose me."
"Royalty and a pirate?" Liam said
"She's with child again Liam, our second child. So I'm going to make sure her stress levels stay down." Killian said
I sensed something coming and as I looked I saw a group of men coming near. I wanted nothing more than to tell Killian we needed to go but before I could we were all ambushed. When the bag over my head was removed sometime later I saw Killian and Liam on a ledge. I went running but they pulled me back.
"Stop it, Killian he's alive." I said
"Sorry Princess." The man said
I didn't know what to do, magic was still tricky down here the only magic that worked was the dark one magic. I had to move around to try to get free and build my anger up. Killian noticed but then Hades appeared just as I knocked everyone back running over and trying to help pull his brother up.
"Hold on, we'll get you up." I said
"How can you be so king after what I did?" Liam asked
I merely smiled "You're still family." I said
"Killian can you forgive me for what I've done?" Liam asked
"yes." Killian said
We tried but Liam's hand slipped from ours as we reached for him, Hades was watching. I saw the area change and I looked around just as Hades disappeared. Killian seemed shocked to see the bright lights, the sea, and the ship in the distance. I was impressed as this was the first time I'd been in this area. We saw Liam come up with a boat and we helped the men get on the ship.
"Killian, I was wrong. This one is a keeper. Sail the seas with her and your family." Liam said
the adventure that was going on was not much to talk about because I ended up passing out after that scare. Killian caught me up that things were not so simple. He put me on bed rest when we were back at the house. He said that Hades left the underworld to be with Zelena but I knew something wasn't right. turns out while we were home Regina and Robin had a too close of a call.
"Luv, you need to watch it. You've used too much magic in a short amount of time." Killian said
"then now we just look toward the future." I said
