HADES

Back pain

It was late at night when Hades walked out of the shower with only a towel around his hips. Water droplets were still clinging to his tan body and he strolled around the dark apartment where only one light was flickering. He had spent the day helping Jay move his things to the new mansion on the East side, but he had only driven the packages to the border. He did not dare to even enter the side that could be a potential jail to him.

What he didn't expect so late at night, was to hear a knock on the door. He held on to a knife tightly and silently peeked out of the window. His heart was beaten against his chest and his throat had gotten dry. Even though he was panicking at that time, he was happy that Jay wasn't in the flat. If he was to die, or even worse be taken by force, he would be more relieved that Jay wasn't there to see him like that.

Hades couldn't see because of the dark and he tried his best to squint his eyes to get a glimpse of the shadow standing outside the door. He quickly moved away from the window and ran to his room to grab his gun. Just then he heard another knock and this one was harsh and almost aggressive. Hades breathed in deeply and felt his inner monsters start to arise. His breath started getting rigid breathing and without thinking a lot on it, he stormed to the door. He didn't even hesitate before knocking the door open and gripping the figure by its neck and throwing it in the hallway before locking the door. He couldn't have this person creating attention to him.

The person he had trashed in his flat, screamed out loudly. And that's when Hades halted in his steps. WHAT. THE FUCK. The scream belonged to a woman and in a swift moment he scrunched down to check up on her. All his monsters in the head had left, leaving him alone as always.

Celina felt her spine throb from how she landed on the floor. She groaned out loudly and a sound like a scream escaped her lips. She didn't have time to even think about what had happened before a man held her up by her arms and helped her on a couch that was not in a good state.

She looked up at the person and got her breath hitched in her throat. She wasn't the only one, because even Hades was panicked now. How had she managed to find him?! Celinas eyes were wide and she could just imagine how her hair would be messy now. Her plump lips were parted in awe, but the pain in her back made her scrunch her button nose slightly. Hades on the other side had the same poker face on. He did not know what to do with himself.

"You...you are...you" Celina stuttered, not knowing what to say. Her habit over stuttering in front of handsome men were back and she now thought about how she had never done that in front of Sebastian. Oops.

"Are you okay?" Hades cut out her stuttering with a question and he looked at her up and down. He didn't notice that he was being very touchy because of the panicked state he was in. He thought he had seriously hurt the woman! Celina who was flustered became even more nervous as his big hands touched her around. And it was just then that she noticed he wasn't wearing anything other than a towel around his hips. She stared at his toned abs and the six pack that showed how strong he was. His slight movement made the muscles in his body bulge out and she wanted to cry out at the emotions she was feeling. Suddenly his hand cupped her chin and made her look up at his face. His eyelashes were dark and thick framing his beautiful blue eyes perfectly. His nose was straight and sharp, the kind that she would take a rhino plastic surgery for. His jaw and cheekbones sculpted his face as if he was a Greek god in the history books she didn't read in the library. On second thought, if they were full of pictures like him, she might have to start reading-

"Woman, answer me!" Hades hissed and cupped her chin harder, tilting it forward. Celina nodded her head quickly and tried standing up, but her back ached resulting her in letting out a loud groan.

Hades cussed under his breath, understanding the severity of the issue. He didn't know what to do and in a panicked state, he forgot that he was only in his towel. "My back hurts" Celina whispered embarrassed as she tried hiding her face from the mysterious man. Hades nodded his head in response and gathered her in his arms without any trouble. He laid her down on his bed and scratched his head, not knowing what to say.
