(King Pison's Pov)

I was still deep in sleep when I heard a harsh whisper in my ears.

"Get up!"

At first, I ignored the voice and snuggled deeper into sleep. It's been a long time since I ever felt so... comfortable.

"Get up now!"

My eyes opened and I sat up.

The room reeked of death and a dark shadow hovered above me. It was so thick it looked like a cloud amidst the dimly lit room.

Hades.

For a moment, I assumed I was in some kind of trance, but when I balled my fists and dug my claws into the flesh of my palm, I knew this was real. This was unusual. As much as Hades was my deity, he never revealed his presence in this manner.

I watched the cloud sweep over to one side of the room into a human-like form, although there was nothing else to it, it was just shadows. "You refused to heed my warnings." Hades's voice rang out in the room.

I frowned, sitting up "I don't understand."

"Eden." He snapped. "She's gone."

I frowned, finding it a little difficult to understand. My eyes widened suddenly, and I whipped my head to the side to check the bed for Eden.
