KILL OF LOVE

-SAGE-

" Last night was amazing," Hades mutters, wrapping his arms around my waist.

I giggle, placing my arms around his neck as he smiles down at me. Hades spoiled me the entire morning, we went shopping, had breakfast and he even bought me a new plushy.

" Hades," I mumble.

" Yes, sweetcheeks."

" Was your mother serious when she said the thing about mistresses?"

He frowned at me, I know he wasn't happy that I was suspecting him but the thought wasn't leaving my mind. Mrs.Romano left no chance to taunt me today and in between that, she showed me the reality of the mafia world.

" Married men do keep mistresses, it's common in our world but you have my loyalty. I will rip my heart out of my chest before even thinking of loving someone other than you." his long, slender fingers cupped my cheeks, tilting my face towards him.

" And what if I fall out of love?" I bit my tongue, watching his beautiful face turn into an angry one.

" Then I'll make you fall in love with me, again and again till the end of the time." He smirks, spinning me around.

" And how are you going to do that?" I giggle, throwing my head back.

" You really wanna know?" he raises an eyebrow, smirking at me.

" Yeah," I said, rubbing my nose against his.

" I'll pound into you until your cunt takes the shape of my cock." I gasped, choked, and cried at the same time as he laughed at me.

" Now, why is my baby girl turning into a tomato?" he laughs, pinching my cheeks.

" That wasn't funny, Hades." I pout, he mutters a sorry, kissing my pouty lips.

" Oh, look who just decided to show up after fourteen freaking hours."

I pinched my eyebrows, looking at Enrique as he walked towards us with grim expressions.

" It's eleven o'clock." Enrique glared at us.

" I do have a watch but thank you," Hades mutters, smiling at him.

" Shut the fuck up, you bastard. I know really well what your true motive is." Enrique screamed.

" Oh really!? That's why I kept feeling that I've forgotten something. Please tell me what it is, sir." Hades mocked Enrique, causing me to giggle.

" Sage, this man is a monster, he just loves you for your good looks but trust me, he will leave you once he gets enough pleasure from you." Enrique looks at me, his eyes moist as he points at Hades.

" Are you describing yourself, you fucktard?" Hades smiles.

" Don't talk to me like that, you fucking murderer. Should I tell Sage that you fucking killed your own father?" Enrique screamed.

What!?

" Haa! You just did." Hades smiles, rolling his eyes.

" Sage, he is a monster. He dragged his father like a dog in front of the entire town before shooting him between his eyes." Enrique says.

I looked up at Hades, he was calm and composed like always. He looks down at me with a little smile.

" Look, sweetcheeks, I did kill him but he deserved it. He killed the girl Leo loved, the girl my brother loved more than anything was killed by my father. I can't even describe what all they did to the poor girl so I killed my monster of a father." Hades mutters as tears pool into his eyes.

He quickly blinks them away before fixing the stone expression on his face- he was hurt, I could feel it but unlike me, he was really good at hiding his emotions. Pain is the same for everyone but everyone has their way of dealing with it, I cry, Hades hides, and Leo, who could ever know that the bubbly little boy had such a huge wound on his heart.

" Imagine what kind of a heartless person he is to kill his own father, the same man who gave life to him." Enrique's words angered me this time, he was just too ignorant to see that Hades was right.

" And what did you do to the man who gave life to you? You insulted him for years, ignored his love, and pushed him away when he was the one who provided you with all the luxuries you boast about. All that just because he moved on. She left him, it was her choice but yet you decided to blame him." My voice came out harsher than I expected, Enrique flinched back looking at me with hurtful eyes.

I never planned on using the weakest point of his life against him but he was doing the same with Hades.

" I can't believe you! You're supporting this fucking monster." Enrique screamed, kicking a pot plant.

" Yes, I'm a monster. You guessed it right, Enrique." Hades said, his heavy voice piercing through the air.

" I'm a monster and I love to kill people really brutally. But this girl right here, she is my baby and I swear, I'll destroy anyone who hurts her even if it's myself." Hades looks back at me, sincerity clear in his cold eyes.

I know this baddie can hurt himself too if he ever accidentally harms me. His eyes speak for him, they reflect the love he has for me, let's not talk about the sarcastic child in him.

" Bullshit," Enrique screams.

" Just leave us alone, Enrique. Go take care of your pregnant, fiance." I say, feeling a punch in my gut upon remembering all the drama of last night.

" The baby isn't mine, Sage. I-I said no . . . to Sabrina." he sighs.

" What are you saying?"

" The child isn't mine, I'm sure but Sabrina kept forcing me that it's mine so I demanded a DNA report. Your father really got angry at this, he broke our engagement. I don't get what's wrong with your father, it's just a small thing."

" What's wrong with him? Are you serious? How could you say such a thing to my sister, Enrique? You're insulting her loyalty and her love. How dare you hurt my sister!" I screamed, storming towards him but Hades wrapped his arms around my waist pulling me back.

" Your sister! The same sister who doesn't give a fuck about you." Enrique laughs.

" She loves you, Enrique. She hurt me to get your love." I scream.

" I don't love her, I love you," he yelled.

" Then why did you leave?"

The silence broke across the room with just my words echoing in my ears, I felt Hades' hold on me slowly loosen. Enrique looked up at me with tears in his eyes before he fell on his knees, sobbing loudly.

" I didn't choose to leave," he whispers.

" But you did. You fucking left me when I was dying, you didn't even hesitate for once."

At last, the tears broke their bounds and came rolling down my cheeks. I hate this part about myself but fuck it, I can't control it when thinking about that day. For six whole days, I was used like a rag doll and when I finally escaped, I thought it's all over but who's uncle knew that it was just the beginning.

I can never forget those days of my life no matter what, my entire fairytale flipped into a nightmare so quick that I couldn't even realize it.

" You'll never forgive me for that, will you?" Enrique whispers.

The tears dried up as my face grew stoic. Something in me flipped and my emotions suddenly calmed down. I wiped the cool tears on my cheeks and chin before holding Enrique's gaze.

" I will forgive you, Enrique. I will forgive you the day I forgive my rapists."

Color ran out of his face upon my words, Hades snapped his head towards me with wide eyes. I'm sure they are wondering why I am putting Enrique with those dirty bastards.

" Don't . . . please Sage don't associate me with them." Enrique's voice shook as more tears escaped his eyes.

" You're one of them Enrique, probably the most brutal one. They destroyed my body, my self-respect, and my virtue but you, you broke my love, my hopes, and my dreams. A person can live without anything but not hope and you broke my hopes. They touched me but you made me feel dirty, they forced me but you made me feel used, they made me naked but it was you who humiliated me." Enrique's eyes were red as he stared at me.

" Fuck you! Fuck you, Enrique for making me who I am today."

I never had the courage to say this but it is true, Enrique and my family did more damage to me than my rapists could ever do. I wasn't this weak to cry on every little thing but this is me today who can't go through a single day without crying, and panic attacks. I stumbled back when Hades caught me, his hands slowly rubbing my back.

" Breathe, sweetcheeks. Breathe," he whispered.

Only then I realized that I was holding my breath. Hades slowly guided me towards the little wooden bench and kneeled on the floor, near me.

" Good? Do you need a doctor?" he whispered.

" No." I shook my head, looking back at Enrique who was still staring at me silently.

" Sage, my little princess, I'm sorry for everything I made you go through. You didn't deserve the hate and disgust and I'm extremely sorry for that. I promise you that you will never have to face it again but please forgive me. I promise you, we'll have the best wedding if you just forgive me." Enrique whispers, standing up.

" Whoa, you stupid pumpkin. She is my bride." Hades shrieked, glaring at Enrique.

" Stay out of this, Hades. Sage and I love each other and I'm sure, we can work it out. We'll have a grand wedding just like you wanted Sage, then we'll live a perfect life just like we always planned of." Enrique looks at me with a smile.

" Dude, is your ass jealous of the amount of shit that just came out of your mouth? You left her when she needed you, you got engaged to her sister, gave her sister a baby boo-boo and you now want to marry her! I don't even have enough middle fingers to show you what I'm feeling right now for you." Hades snaps at him, Enrique picks up a pebble throwing at Hades.

" Shut the fuck up, you fucktard. I'm not talking to you." Enrique growls.

" What is the chaos about?" I gripped the bench tightly as my father walked into the garden. His expressions got annoyed at the sight of Hades but suprisingly, they softened when he saw me.

" What is happening here?" he looked back at Enrique.

" Hades is a fucking monster." Enrique growled.

" Bitch please," Hades rolled his eyes, casually running his fingers through my hair.

" Hades, good you're here. I want to talk about something." dad glances towards me and then back at Hades.

" Sage can't marry you. I'm calling this wedding off." dad says.
