SPY

-SHAWN-

" What's wrong with her?" I sit on the bed, pulling Sage in my arms.

" I guess she's having a nightmare." Hades whispers, touching her cheek.

" Calm down, baby," I whisper, rocking her back and forth.

Sage sobs uncontrollably, her eyes were still closed but her body was trembling.

" It will take a lot of time and patience to calm her down, it works best when you hold her gently and rock her. Don't hold her too tight, it triggers her more." I whispered looking up at Hades as he nods hurriedly as if taking mental notes.

" Ssshhhh, love. I'm here, no one is gonna hurt you." I whisper, looking down at her troubled face as she sobbed uncontrollably.

" Can I?" Hades sits on the bed, beside me.

" Okay, hold her gently. Don't put any pressure on her or she'll panic." I whisper, slowly placing Sage in his hold.

Hades has troubles holding her at first but then he quickly copies what I was doing a minute ago and begins to rock her back and forth.

I lean back on the wall, watching him care for my Sage. I always thought it will be Enrique who'll be with Sage till the end but never expected him to tap out as soon as the bad clouds surrounded us. I'm just glad that Hades has everything Sage wished for and he is much more than anyone can wish for.

" What's this?" my eyebrows pinched together in confusion as I look at a tiny black circle on the wall, near Sage's bed.

It looked weird but I don't remember putting anything like this here and Sage never works around her room, she doesn't even move anything unless it's really important.

" Oh holy muffins. This is fucked up." Hades mutters.

" What is it?" I look back at him.

" A spy cam."

" What is this?" Hades screamed.

" Why are you asking me, you fucker?" Enrique screamed back.

" Because you've done this," Elliot growled.

I looked down at Sage, her body was still trembling from the nightmare she just had. She looked up at me, offering me a tired smile before looking back at the men who were ready to rip each other's heads off.

" Enough," I said, putting an end to their screams.

I could feel an ache forming in my head because of them screaming their lungs out.

" There were cameras all around the house, even in my room. Why will I put in my room if I was the one behind all this?" Enrique argued.

" So that no one suspects you when it's revealed," Hades growled.

" I can also say that you did all this because all the spy cams and microphones look new," Enrique growled.

" Why will someone out spy cameras and microphones in our house?" I mutter, looking at the four garbage bags full of spy cameras and microphones that were found in our house.

" These microphones are of the best quality, they can catch the quietest whisper and the funny thing is that the most were installed in Sage's room meaning someone really wanted to know everything that was happening in here." Elliot sighed, glancing at Sage.

" Do you think it's your father?" Elliot questioned.

" I don't know, Elliot. Why will father want to spy on Sage especially now when his business is drowning. This stuff costs thousands of dollars and father would rather invest that much in his business than spy on people he doesn't want to see." I shrug, leaning against the headboard.

I hate to admit but a part of me believes that Sean is behind this. Maybe everyone in the room believes it too but no one is saying it out loud because of Sage. She won't be able to sleep for a minute if she knows that Sean can spy on her even from the prison.

" Why is no one suspecting Hades?" Enrique snapped.

" I can say the same about you. Why is no one suspecting this fucker?" Hades growled.

" Why will I spy on Sage?" Enrique scoffs.

" I don't know. You're creepy as fuck." Hades rolled his eyes.

" Sage and I have shared a bed for years, there's not an inch of her body that I haven't touched or seen so there's no way I'm behind this." Enrique snapped.

Sage winced, hiding her face in my chest silently. She hasn't talked much after the letter incident and I'm worried about what's going inside her head.

If I'm being honest with my own self, I'm scared too. Sean is a bastard and the letter itself told us that he hasn't forgotten Sage at all.

" Shawn, trust me. Hades is behind all this. Why can't you see? He met Sage once and fell in love with her and now they're getting married, that sounds stupid. We don't know anything about him. What if he is Sean?" Enrique screams.

I felt Sage shudder at the mention of Sean. Her grip on me tightened as she quietly looked at Hades and Enrique.

" He is not Sean. I've seen how Sean looks like." I roll my eyes at Enrique's pointless words.

" He could have got a plastic surgery," Enrique argues.

" Enough Enrique, just accept it already that Hades and I love each other now and you're no longer a part of my life. I didn't push you away from me, I didn't leave, I didn't even move on first, it was always you who put an end to our relationship then why are you destroying my bond with Hades now?" Sage screamed, throwing a pillow at Enrique.

" Sage, I just don't want you to get hurt," Enrique whispers.

" Well guess what? The main reason for every pain in my life is you. If you controlled your bloody temper that day then I wouldn't have been 'used as a public property'. Everything happened because of you, you made the mistakes and I was the one who was punished." she sobs, looking at him with accusing eyes.

" Enrique, please leave." I sigh.

" Enrique, leave," Elliot says.

" Don't you trust me, Shawn?" Enrique sighs.

" I don't trust anyone when it comes to my sister, Enrique. Leave." I growl, pointing at the door.

He sighs, walking out of the room. Sage let's out a sigh of relief before looking up at me.

Hades isn't what Enrique is telling us. Elliot and I have researched on him thoroughly before letting the matter come this far, Hades is nowhere related to anything of this matter. And he is the only one Sage finds comfort with after me and Elliot, I will go to any extent just to see my Sage happy.

" I'm scared, Shawn." she whispers with tears pooled in her eyes.

" I'm here, baby." I kiss her forehead, cupping her cheek as she sobs.

How can I tell you baby that I'm scared too? Everyone is scared for you.

" I'm scared. Just hide me somewhere, Shawn, please. Hide me." She sobs.

I look up at Hades and Elliot, they both were quietly watching us with pained expressions.

" Hey, Sage. Look at me, I'm here with you. I won't let anything happen to you." I whisper.

She nods, I know she isn't convinced but she has no other option than accepting it. This letter has really planted a seed of worry in our hearts.

" Sage, I want you to trust me and tell me everything honestly, okay?" I whisper, cupping her cheeks as she nods.

" Do you love Hades?"

" Yeah,"

" Do you want to marry him?"

" Yeah,"

" Do you really want to spend the rest of your life with him?"

" Yeah,"

" Will you marry him two days later?"

" I guess."

I chuckle, pulling her into my arms. At this moment, there is no other way than to marry her. Sean might step back if she's married and even if he doesn't, Hades is going to take her to his country after the wedding. Sean won't be able to know where she is let alone the thought of getting to her.

" Shawn." she whispers.

" Yes, baby."

" I'm gonna miss you." she sobs.

" I'm gonna miss you too, baby." I kiss her forehead.

Hades lives on the other side of the world and we live on this side. The most we'll meet is twice or thrice a year and the thought pains my heart so bad. How am I going to live without her? How am I going to sleep without cuddling her? Why do we have the most excruciating fate!?

" Please, don't ever hate me as Sabrina does. You're my good brother, don't ever hate me." She whispers, kissing my cheek.

I'm not a good brother, baby. I'm a terrible, brother. I couldn't save you from that monster Sean, I'm not a good brother at all. But I promise to be the best one.

" Excuse me, miss Martinez. I fought with my mother because of the wedding date and she even was a minute away from disowning me. How can you say yes so easily?" Hades growls, playfully.

" He doesn't want to marry me." She whispers, looking up at me.

" I didn't say that." Hades protests, sitting on the other side of the bed.

" I'll be the happiest man on Earth to marry you." He whispers, pulling her out of my hold.

Sage blushes, hugging him as Hades hugs her too, kissing her forehead.

I guess this is the end of all our sufferings. Every bad thing will come to an end in my sister's life and she'll always be happy without any evil touching her ever again.
