A perfect happy family or so that's what they thought.
Demeter, Hestia, Hera, Hades, Poseidon and Zeus. The six children of Kronos and Rhea. They are happy with each other until...
Kronos takes an interest in one specific son, Hades. Kronos, couldn't help but look at that perfect frame that Hades has, watching his son move with such grace, that every single one of his movements is fluid and gentle. Kronos is fascinated by his own son's feminine and angelic appearance. The contrast between his long black hair and his snow-white skin, the combination makes him even more beautiful. His daughters never looked so amazing to Kronos, sure he's proud of them, and his other sons too but Hades stole the crown for being beautiful for him.
Those stolen glances turn into desire that leads to an unforgivable act.
It all started when Hades was a child. Poseidon, Zeus, and Hades would play soccer while Demeter, Hestia, and Hera watch and cheers while their mother Rhea prepared them food and water once they got tired. Meanwhile, their father is far away, keeping an eye on a specific son, Hades. His son, a boy who was supposed to be the future heir of his kingdom is looking more like a Queen rather than a King. The way Hades sit, the way Hades dress, the way Hades speak with that beautiful voice of his. His words were so gentle, so sweet and so soft-spoken. His shy response was like a cherry on top of a cake... His whole body just speaks the definition of femininity and so does his taste. But that's not what caught Kronos' attention. No, What did was his son's body. Hades slim physique fit for a woman, but the most impressive part of him was his heart-shaped lips and his beautiful azure orbs which shone like the stars in the night sky.
Kronos can't stand seeing his son being so beautiful, his desire leads him to take Hades away from his brothers each night, telling Rhea that he wants to spend time with him. His wife accepts his request, happy to see him taking time to spend with his children.
Every night, the King of the Titans locks the door, making sure that his wife and his two other sons are not able to get into his room. No one should witness what he's going to do to his son. Kronos always starts the same way, by whispering sweet and tender words into the small frame of Hades. His gentle and warm tone of voice works like a charm, Hades finds himself under his father's spell with no way to resist. The King of the Titans enjoys every second of it, taking his sweet time to see his son getting soft and sweet before acting out. Hades' innocent and pure heart could not think about what his father's true intention was, after all, he was still young. He felt that he could trust him since he was his father.
This day is not too different, Hades is caught under the spell of his father. He is already halfway in this dreamlike state where he cannot resist his father's words and touch. Kronos leans in close to Hades, his lips only an inch away from the skin of his son, his warm breath caresses Hades, and his tongue is already touching the delicate skin of Hades's neck. His hand travels along his bare hip when he speaks those sweet, soft, and comforting words . "My favorite, little sweet boy"
Hades is lost, his body is at the mercy of his father. His mind is already clouded with a warm and comforting feeling. The sound of his Father's voice, the sensation of being held tight in the large and firm grip of the King of the Titans, the warm breath caressing the skin of Hades, the soft and moist touch of Kronos's lips on the skin of his neck. He is in total hypnosis, under his Father's control.
When Hades is fully under his control, Kronos takes it further to the next level, he lays Hades into his bed and makes love. At such a young age, Hades finds it hard to distinguish what is normal and what isn't when he's under the control of Kronos. The manipulation of Kronos was perfect. He could convince Hades that he was doing something out of love. Something that every father and son do to each other. Hades can't find it in himself to question Kronos. He finds himself thinking that everything his Father does to him is normal, that it's all just good father-son time.
But deep down inside Hades, he knows what is happening is not normal. His father should not be doing this. He can't help but feel embarrassed and ashamed. A part of Hades knows that everything is wrong, he knows that other fathers don't do this with their son. But that part of Hades is easily put to silence with a few sweet words or with just a gentle and loving gesture. Deep down, all Hades feels is fear and humiliation. He wants it to stop, he wants it to never happen ever again, but his Father's control is too powerful.
As time passes Rhea can't help but notice something is wrong, she can feel it, she's the mother of Hades and she knows something is troubling her son. Rhea, Hades's mother, is a kind and thoughtful woman. She can feel that something is wrong but she cannot point it out. There's no sign of anything wrong. Her son is well taken care of, fed, clothed, loved, and looked after. No sign of abuse or anything to worry about. her husband is a wonderful god-husband and a great father. Why is she feeling this way?
The King of the Titans is a master of hiding what he did, he can fool Rhea just like he can fool Hades. Kronos has mastered the art of manipulating. But Rhea is different, she is Hades's mother. Her instincts, her motherly love, and her empathy are beyond Kronos's understanding and manipulation. She can feel it in her heart, this gut feeling that something is wrong. But, there are no clues, no sign of anything that can make Rhea able to expose what her husband is doing to their little boy.
This is a daily thing for Hades, having his mind and body violated by his own Father. There's nothing he can do about it. No one can help him, he has to endure the suffering alone. No other god knows he exists, no one can hear his silent scream. Hades can't do anything except wait for every moment to pass, every day to come, and the night to end. He's trying to forget the suffering and pain, he's trying to forget that it's his Father who is doing this to him every single night.
Every day is a struggle, every night becomes a nightmare. Hades spends half his day pretending everything is okay while hiding this terrible secret inside. But in the other half, when the sun is down, when his Father's hand is on him when it's just his Father and him in this dark and lonely world, he is nothing. He is no longer a God that commands fear and respect amongst the others, he is nothing but a pathetic creature without any power, at the mercy of the King of the Titans. He is alone, forgotten, and abandoned. He's just an object, a thing for his Father's pleasure.
Hades has been this way for years. It has become an endless cycle for him, a dark and empty cycle with nothing but pain and humiliation. Every day, he wakes up with a small bit of hope but then reality comes crashing down on him as his heart and dreams are slowly crushed under the weight of the burden hidden inside of him. No one will ever know this terrible secret, no one is aware of what is happening right under their nose, inside the walls of Krono. This secret will never come to light. No one will ever know the pain of Hades, no one will love, or protect him as he deserves.
Hades feels so alone. He is screaming inside but not a single soul will hear him. He is dying inside, but on the outside, the God of the dead appears calm and unperturbed. He's living a lie. This is not who Hades truly is. He hates each day of this, but what choice does he have? To refuse his Father means a severe punishment for Hades. He can't do anything to stop his Father and he can't tell anyone. No one can help him.
