《Our Little Moon》Chapter 31 - I'm sorry
Advertisement
"Can we go now?" Hades grumbled. I just came out from bathroom and I need more minutes to be ready. He looks grumpy because like me, he lacked of any sleep but he said that he don't want to miss a family reunion today.
"You can go Hade and drive your own or ask a driver to send you to hospital." I replied before taking a black pants and shirt out of my closet.
Derek was currently on our living room making some business calls. He's so excited to see my father and my little sister. When he found out that we have a sister, he never stop asking about her that's why I asked him to come here instead.
"I'm tired to drive Ares as I said before, so can you move faster so that we can go."
And everytime one of my brothers talk to me like that, I always do the opposite, making them know that I hate orders.
After 10 minutes, I heard door opening, footsteps getting out, before it was shut again. It might be Hades and I know that he's pissed—— so much.
I grin and get back in front of my mirror making sure I look good despite looking so exhausted. Once I feel satisfied I decided to get out and meet the two downstairs.
"Finally!" Hades muttered before he walks ahead of us while we follow him to the garage. We choose a big car and thank God that Derek volunteered to drive. Because as much as possible I want to save my power.
Once we arrived at the hospital, we didn't waste our time to reach my father's room and meet them. And even we're still outside, I could still hear their chattings and I got the feelings that they are having a good time and I cannot wait to see and be with them.
"What do we missed?" I ask. While looking around. I saw my sister beside my father and I couldn't contain my jealousy seeing them like that— cuddling with each other with blissful smile in their faces.
"Well I just told my daughter how she easily wrapped all her brothers around her tiny fingers." Father stated before looking at my sister who had her eyes fixed with him.
"Cosa significa papà?" She asked with curriousity.
(What does it mean Daddy?)
"Te lo spiegherò quando i tuoi fratelli non ci saranno, okay tesoro?" My father replied whose eyes were fixed only to her, ignoring my brothers's complaint how selfish that was.
(I will explain it to you when your brothers are not around, okay sweety?)
And because Derek keeps pestering me by mumbling my name and poking my back and shoulder, I think it's time for him to show himself.
"Hey Dad, someone is here to see you." I finally said before Derek step forward and walk towards to my father, who has a genuine smile on his lips. They were greeting each other until Derek introduces himself to my sister
"Hello, little one—- I am your Uncle Derek." Luna sit nicely before she offered her hand to him.

"Hi Uncle Derek—- pleasant to meet you and I am Artemis Selene aka Luna." And I cannot stop myself not to laugh at her last words.
She's really so smart.
"Now I know why Ares wants me to drive his car like a madman. He wants us to be here because he misses you so much and now I know why, you're such a cutie." Derek ratting me out that I swear I want to punch his face but when I saw my sister's face lift up, I think I could forgive Derek.
"Is that true Ari? That you missed me so much?" She asked and all I could do is smile at her, until my brother Hades ruin the moment.
"I missed you too Selene." He told her and I could see through his eyes what his plan to do and because I'm jealous king of man specially to my sister—— I blocked myself in front of him and took my sister to my chest.
"I missed you Bambina. Sorry if just now I show myself." I told her and I really enjoy the comfort that she's bringing to my heart. She said that it's okay because I am here now.
"I missed you too Ari." She added.
After few minutes Hades took her from me but not before saying that my time is up.
Bastard!
So while he's taking his sweet moment with her, my eyes started to look around to find someone that I miss to see too.
Delilah
But what hell she and Diony were talking about that she seemed to be so engrossed in conversation?
Fuming, I just look at them surreptitiously until the someone knocks on the door and the Doctor came inside to check my father and then Delilah.
Everyone even me take our seats to let the Doctor do his job—- until Diony asked Delilah that he will help her get back to her room.
"Okay thank you." She replied until my eyebrows were pulled together when I saw Diony's hand on her waist.
'On her waist!' I yell at Diony mentally and I could feel the steam invisibly getting out from my nose and ears.
"Diony since I have something to tell her, I think I could do that." I stated and remove his hand from her waist.
"Del is that okay?" Diony asked and I frown
for another nickname that has been created by my brothers.
When I look at her, I saw confusion on her face but I smile instead.
"Is it okay with you Delilah?" I asked softly while looking at her eyes.
"Okay, Ares." She replied shyly before Diony cleared the way towards her room. My hands gently went to her waist and I swear that I hear someone cleared his throat but I didn't look back, and I couldn't care less.
Hence, I could sense the heated stare that they are throwing at the back of my head.
Once she's comfortably laying on her bed, my knuckles turned white when I saw her bruises on her arms and legs that are showing now since she's wearing the hospital gown.

That f*cker Jack will gonna ask the devil to take his life because I'm gonna let him taste more than pain for abusing Delilah.
"Ares are you alright?" She asked in breathy tone and suddenly I look at my hand and try to calm myself.
"Yeah, I am good. Well to start—- I am sorry for not knowing that you've been in pain." Her eyes look at me in disbelief before she said that there's nothing to sorry for that as it wasn't our fault, someone else is, and I know she's referring to the motherf*cker Jack.
"How are you now? Are you still in pain?" I asked again but she placed her hand on top on mine and look at me.
"I am alright, Ares." And that was magical to hear not only her velvety voice but knowing that she's fine now.
"Are you sure?" I asked again, I know it's sounds annoying but I want to prolong our conversation just to hear her voice again.
But to my disappointment—- she just nod at me and yawn.
But I need to tell her something before she dozes off.
"Delilah I know you need to sleep but I think I didn't say yet the word 'thank you' for what what you did. Samantha's gone and it's all because of you. Hades told me that you're the one who keep the blood-stained bedsheet. Lucy found it and if you throw that thing, Samantha may inflict so much damage to my family. And whatever she told you was not true. Don't ever believe her because you're not ugly and unwanted. You're a blessing to us and you're so brave. Coming here with so much courage was really admirable." I sincerely told her before pressing her hand.
Usually she has this body language to flinch even just from my voice, but now it seems like she's becoming comfortable, which is good because from now on I don't want her to feel so scared from any of us—- specially me.
"And I am so sorry —— you know about that kiss. Though, I have no regrets, because I really desire to kiss you —— but I was an asshole to you afterwards. I never had any relationship and I have no intention to hurt your feelings but I know that I did and I am sorry. Hard to believe but I'm not in myself when I am near with you. I don't know if there is explanation for that but what matters to me right now is to ask your forgiveness. Can you forgive me if I hurt you?" Her stares pierced through my heart and I am willing to let her do that because I realized how important she is to me. Sounds crazy but that's the truth, sue me.
"I forgive you Ares." She said and gave me her sweetest smile that melts my heart. I really couldn't explain my feelings right now that I tried to fight myself not to kiss her again, until I remember something else that I need to ask her.
"And may I ask if you have any relative?" I asked and look at her again, she shook her head and look down at her lap before playing with her hands.
"Alright, listen to me Delilah, I know that Gerad helped you when you run away. And I found out that he has sister that might be—- you. I know that you didn't ask in return for reuniting my family, but I want to do something for you. So, I told him that I am willing to offer a hell. I can ask someone to do the DNA testing."
"What's that?" She asked innocently and I remember how my baby sister asked the same way and smile appeared to my face.
"It is a test to know if both of you are related—-if you are indeed his long lost sister. He said that his Aunt took his baby sister and sold to someone. He was only 10 that time and his Aunt died so he had no chance to know where to find his sister. He added that you remind him of someone —- his mother, specially your eyes."
All of the sudden her eyes brimmed with tears, and I want to punch my self for making her cry.
"I am sorry if I overwhelm you—." But I couldn't finish my sentence because she abruptly stop me.
"It's okay, he's so nice to me and I am wondering because he helped me, not only once. But what if he's not my brother? I don't have anyone and have no place to go." She cried and I absentmindedly stroke her hair and kiss her head.
My eyes soften to her because why she's worrying about that?
"Brother or not, Delilah— I want you to know that you already have a family. You have us, okay? Do you think I will allow you to go somewhere else? And aside from that my father will have my head in spike if you disappear from our lives. We will just adding one person to your life—- your brother. And I am doing this because for me it is the least that I can do in return for eeeeverythingggg that you've done to us. So stop crying because if my father knew that you cried, I will be dead and probably my sister will not talk to me, because she's very fond of you, so I'm gonna wipe this tears and please smile. From now on only smile should appear on this face." I said wiping her tears while we are looking at each other before I kiss her forehead and ask her to sleep. That even she wants to say something I know that the medicine started to kick in and she has no other choice but fall to sleep.
Once I saw that her breathing is even and sounds peaceful, I decided to give her privacy but ask my two men to guard outside her room. I want to stay, really but I decided to give her some privacy and just come back again once she's awake.

A Warrior's Love (BL)
"Your mind is dark, your eyes are dull, your life is bleaker than feces, and your heart is covered in ash." She removed one hand to keep her veils on her head as the topmost shawl slipped down her neck. She continued to speak, "Your blood is cold. If you remain this way, you will die before you can find your love." The Krasean lowered his veil, revealing his face to us. He tipped his head upward so I can see his honey coloured eyes that were duller than his peoples'. Black eyeliner outlined the rim of his eyes, drawing attention to his enchanting eyes. "Whoever your lover is, they are your other half. You will endure hardships and pain because of them. You will also make them feel the same." She looked conflicted like she did not know whether to tell me this was good or bad. "In their eyes, you are the evilest and the godliest. How contradicting this is!" "Did you slap me?" I held the helmet between the pit of my elbow and my waist. One hand slowly reached up to rub my numb cheek. It has been forever since someone last slapped me. Now, no one who knew my identity would dare to hit me directly. "The blood coursing through your veins, it's hot and dangerous. You cannot be tamed easily and this may be the cause of your downfall." A strange grimace graced her wrinkled face. I swear to the gods she is ageing each second! "I see your fall. Someone with too much power automatically becomes a threat. You're no longer seen as an ally, but a monster."
