Chapter Twenty-Four

Lilith pov:

Woking up with Hades shaking me. I groan and push his hand away. I snuggle into my blanket. He said: "woke up my little sunshine, we're going out remember"

I nod my head and murmured: "just 10 minutes"

He picks me and gets me to the washroom. He make me stand up and said: "now get ready fast"

I pout and he leaves ruffling my hair. I brush my teeth while my eyes drift to sleep. I take a warm shower and wash my hair. Today is my birthday but no one remembers it, I guess. I'm not angry because whatever happened a few days back make everyone stressed too. Now everything is fine.

I'm a little upset because Ivan is too busy these days with Uncle Jayce. He is nice and good but I don't know why I'm not getting good vibes from him. I just can't describe but he isn't like the way he pretends himself. Sometimes I even saw some black and shady images of something whenever he say something but I don't know. After those images, my head started to hurt so much.

Ivan is happy but I'm a little upset because he didn't spend much time with me like before. He didn't even sleep with me. I push those feelings and thoughts back. I smile and changed clothes. I wear a white dress and my knee-length shoes. I dry my hair and leave them like this. I went downstairs and said smiling: "good morning everyone"

They all replied my good morning. I sat down on my seat and Ivan said smiling: "so what are you doing today?"

I said eating my cornflakes: "umm nothing special so going out with Hades"

He nodded and David said simply: "why don't you go out with Ivan? Hades is going with me"

I frown and said: "Ivan must be busy. I can go some other day"

Ivan said smiling: "no, I'm always free for you"

I smile and we had breakfast. I said smiling: "Papa, can we have pizza in the evening?"

Papa said smiling: "sure Princess"

I smile and Ivan said simply: "let's go"

I wave them bye and went with Ivan. He said smirking: "how about going on the bike?"

I smile and nod my head. He gives me the little helmet and hopped on the bike. He helped me to hop on the bike and we sped off to the road. He asked: "why are so quiet?"

I said simply: "nothing Ivan"

He stops and removes his helmet. He said blankly: "get down"

I frown and hopped off the bike. I remove my helmet and look at him with furrowed eyebrows. He leans against the bike while crossing his arms. I said looking up at him: "what happened Ivan?"

He said looking angry: "what happened to you, Lily? Why you're not talking to me like before?"

I frowned and said simply: "nothing Ivan"

He growled: "now you're fucking calling me by my name? When I was rude to you call me with that nickname. You cling on to me, cuddle me even if I want or not, you giggle and smile just by looking at me then what happens now"

I pout and sniffle because he is angry at me. He groans looking at me. I said pouting: "it's not your fault. I'm not feeling good"

He checks my forehead and I said pouting: "not like that Ivan. I"

He said gently: "you don't need to think before telling me anything"

I take a shaky breath and said simply: "I don't know how or what but I don't like uncle Jayce. He isn't like he shows himself. I don't know I just felt like I know him for a long time. It's like I lost some of my memory. I saw some shady images not clear"
