"Aren't you sad and blaming yourself for what happened? Haven't you been hoping to find the child so you can clear your name? Alright, I will fulfill that wish of yours! As long as you agree to marry me, I will return the child to you so that you can hand him back."

Selena was irked by the sinister and self-conceited smile that Hades wore, yet she could do nothing about it. "Why must it come to this? You're using a child—”

Before she could even finish her sentence, Hades cut her short. "Yeah! I am despicable and shameless! I will achieve my goals with any means necessary! I will do anything to clear my path! So, are you going to take on or reject my offer?"

His tight grip on Selena's chin was starting to pain her. The craftiness in his gaze told her that he was absolutely serious. "It's fine if you don't agree." He moved closer to whisper into her ear. "Since I already killed so many people, I don't care if I kill one more child. How about that?"

Selena clenched her fists tightly, but in the end, she let go of them. "Is all of this even necessary?" Her tone sounded less agitated than before. She understood Hades well enough to know that while he never easily made decisions, he wouldn't easily change them once he did. Since he hid the fact that he was preparing a wedding from her, she knew he'd never considered failure as an option.
