THE HEART NEVER LIES
-SAGE-
" Sage can't marry you." he mumbles.
Excuse me! What!? Why?
" Finally. Heard that, mob boss or should I say mop loss?" Enrique smirks.
" Jared is joking. It's a joke not a dick, don't take it so hard." Hades mutters, glaring at Enrique.
" It's not a joke." Dad growls.
" You must be kidding me! I fucking paid you five million, do you even know how many zeros are there in five million?" Hades screamed.
" I'll pay your money back." dad said, not stepping down.
" It's not about money, asshole. I fucking love her, she's my baby." Hades growls.
" But my daughter isn't happy with you." dad screamed.
" I am. I want to marry, Hades." I spoke up, shocking dad and Enrique.
" No, Sage. He kills people." Enrique yells.
" So?" I raised an eyebrow at him.
" He loves me and I love him," I say, holding Hades' hand.
" It's just a phase, Sage. It'll pass away soon." Enrique mumbles.
" Ohh, I hope you pass away soon," Hades growls.
" Enough. Hades, you'll get your money by afternoon. Please leave." dad says, pointing at the door.
" No," I whisper, looking up at Hades.
" I don't want the money, take it and shove it up Enrique's ass. I want to marry Sage." Hades says, earning a groan from Enrique.
" No, that's not going to happen," Dad says.
" I love him," I scream, dad looks at me with sad eyes before glaring at Hades.
" Out now," he growls.
" Don't try me, Jared," Hades growls.
" Call the guards, Enrique." dad says.
Enrique smirks at us, screaming for the guards. Hades lets out an angry growl, pulling me to his chest. Heavy footsteps sound near us before I felt someone's arm wrapping around my waist, pulling me from Hades.
" Stop this, Jared, or I swear I'll ruin your entire business," Hades growls.
I scream, thrashing in Enrique's hold as he pulled me away from Hades. Two guards were holding back Hades when he kicks one of them and pushes the other one away. I watch in horror as he takes out his gun from his blazer, pointing at my dad.
" Close your eyes, my sweet," Hades mutters softly, looking at me.
Huh.
" Close your eyes, babygirl," he says again as one of the guards storms towards him.
He slaps the guard on the floor before looking at me again.
I pinched my eyes shut, holding my breath when I heard a gunshot. My body shook when another gunshot came with a scream.
Enrique's arms got off me before I felt Hades's cologne engulf me, his warm hands wrapped around me, I could feel my cheek pressed against the material of his shirt.
" Open," he whispers.
Following his command, my eyes flew open. Hades' lips curved up into a proud smile.
" That's my girl. Don't look at the floor," he mutters before looking up.
I follow his gaze to see father and Enrique standing beside each other, staring at the black pistol in Hades' hand. They both looked terrified whereas Hades was so calm like we are on a picnic right now.
" It was your misconception, Jared, that you thought I was a good man. I kill a few people when I'm bored, imagine how many I'll kill for someone I love. If you two don't want your pee-pee to be chopped off, made a soup of and fed back to you then shut the fuck up and prepare for the wedding." Hades mutters, placing the gun back.
" Baby, do you want to come with me or stay here?" he mutters softly, looking down at me.
" I'll stay," I whisper.
" Sure?" he asks.
" Hmmm." I hum in response as he leans down, placing a little kiss on my lips.
" I'll go now, okay?" he says.
" Yeah." I nod, hugging him for the last time.
" I love you," he mutters.
" I love you too," I whisper, stepping back.
" Remember, one bruise on her and you two will be eating a really limited edition soup." he looks back at Enrique and dad before he takes my hand in his and guides me to the door of the house.
" Goodbye, sweet cheeks." he winks.
" Goodbye, daddy." he looks at me with wide eyes as I giggle, stepping into the house.
Hades waves at me, before walking past them and outside the garden. I look at the floor accidentally and immediately regret to see two bloodied dead bodies lying there.
" Sage."
I sigh, looking up at my dad as he walks towards me. Fear cripples me from inside as his words repeat in my mind, my knees beg to buckle up when dad places his hand on my shoulder. I fell on his feet, crying terribly.
I should have left with Hades.
" Please. . . please don't send me there. I'm sorry, don-don't send me to the whorehouse." I sob, when he kneels down, tears pooled into his eyes.
" I'm sorry, my baby," he whispers before he hugs me.
I froze, feeling him cry on my shoulder.
" Oh god, how could I be so ignorant towards me child's sufferings for all these years?" he sobs.
What is wrong with him!?
