The Beta’s Regret

Chapter 283

(Eden's Pov)

"I trust Hades." Pison said with a smirk. "Lily will not lose her life."

I shook my head.

"How can you trust a god that derives pleasure in pain? Think about it. Won't it make him satisfied if you lost your child and you have to carry the grief with you forever?" I asked.

Pison frowned, and suddenly grabbed my neck, squeezing it tightly. All I wanted was for him not to sacrifice Lily...

"You have no idea what you are saying. You think this will put me against Hades? Never. Even if Lily died, it would be for the greater good."

My eyes widened in horror. There was no stopping Pison. He already had his mind fixed on what he wanted to do.

I couldn't breathe. My eyes desperately pleaded for him to let me go.

Finally, he chuckled sickly "Hades also has plans for you. It's only a matter of time before you begin to think the way we do..."

"I would never." I said with venom in my voice.

Pison ignored me. "You will become my queen, and you will rule alongside me forever."

My stomach churned in disgust at the thought. I could never imagine how Pison imagined that I would ever come to accept his visions and align myself with it.

I shivered, unable to decide which was more terrible, the idea of ruling forever or the fact that Pison imagined that it was a fate I could never escape.

That would be the last thing I wanted for myself.
