Chapter 50 – The Gift (LUCIUS)

His eyes blazed red, and I saw confusion flit through them, but it was gone in seconds. “Tell me what you want, Lucius.”

“I want you to break Lucien’s curse on Patrea’s, linking my bloodline to be fatal for her. Including the nightmares she was having.”

“Are you afraid you will kill your queen?”

“Not me, Hades. I will kill myself first before I even think of that. But I have hundreds of siblings and quite a number of offspring, making each one a danger for my queen.”

“Are you sure about this? Don’t you want an heir, Lucius? Like the one Lucija has?”

“What will I do with an heir if I don’t have Patrea anymore?” I asked back.

“Do you know how much Patrea wants to give you a child? Don’t you want to give her something her heart desires?”

“Her life is far more important to me than a child.”

“You are being selfish. You wanted her alive for yourself, but what about your queen? Doesn’t she deserve to have what she wants?”

“I’m a demon, Hades. Let me be selfish.”

His laughter echoed around us, and I was slowly losing my stance. I would give everything to Patrea, even my own life, but did she want a child? Was it because it was what I wanted?

Would she hate me if she found out I wished for her life instead of the child?

But Patrea was not a selfish female. She would never hate me for wanting her alive. Didn’t she fight and abandon her own realm to be with me? So, she could spend more time with me?

“Do you need more time to think?”

Hades interrupted me from my thoughts. “No. My wish is final.”

“I will think about it.” He answered.

“You can’t do that. You owed me that wish.”

“Did you forget who you were speaking with, Lucius?”

“You can’t just back down on something you promise to give. I knew you could do i t, as your demon performed the curse.”
