What Did Hades Do

I, Cassandra Channing, don't stop my fiance, Hades Emerson, from rushing into the flames to save his non-biological niece, Olivia Emerson, this time. Instead, I watch as the fire swallows him whole. In my past life, a fire broke out at the hotel on our wedding day. Hades and I escaped in time, but Olivia was trapped inside. Seeing the flames grow bigger, I did everything I could to stop him from charging in to save her. When the fire was finally extinguished, Olivia was dead. Hades claimed he didn't blame me for the incident, and purchased diving tickets for me and our son on our third wedding anniversary. When we were 300 feet below sea level, he ripped out our oxygen tank and snarled, "You're the reason I couldn't save Olivia back then. Now, a life for a life." Crying, I begged him to understand that our son is innocent, but he swam away without looking back. In the end, my son and I suffocated to death. After dying, I learned that Hades had always been in love with Olivia. He hated me for stopping him from saving her. He blamed me for causing him to lose the love of his life. I am back on the day of the fire when I open my eyes again.

(Prev Title Alpha Hades and The Red Rose) "On a hot summer night, would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?" Quote co. Meatloaf and Jim Cummings 1976/1977 from 'You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth.' Alpha Hades is an Alpha with a tragic past. He has crafted the persona of The Dark Alpha, to deter his rivals from attacking his pack. As a child, his parents and all previous pack members were wiped out in a rogue attack. He alone survived with the help of his wolf, Cerberus, and the assistance of a human girl called Lydia. But now, Cerberus is dying, and Hades is searching for Lydia in the hope that she is the key to saving him, as Cerberus is convinced that she is their mate. The Red Rose is a human huntress, who is feared by all wolves. She hunts rogues and single-handedly, deals out justice to them as she searches for the Rogue Alpha. He is the one responsible for all of the attacks on the packs, and for an attack on her when she was a child. What will happen when these two meet during a pack dispute? Will Hades find Lydia, before it is too late? And will The Red Rose be able to end, the Rogue Alpha's killing spree?

Pouco antes do casamento, descobri que estava grávida de dois meses. Meu noivo, Diogo Bragança, com o hálito de quem havia bebido, pousou a mão na minha barriga, murmurou em tom de brincadeira: — Francisca, acho que ainda não estou pronto pra ser pai. Vamos... deixar esse bebê pra depois? Respondi com o coração vazio: — Tudo bem. Na vida passada, insisti em ter esse filho. Na mesma época, Antonella Coutinho sofreu um aborto e perdeu a chance de engravidar. Diogo me culpou por isso e, depois do casamento, foi frio comigo até o fim. O filho que carreguei com dor e quase à custa da minha vida, Lenor Bragança, mais tarde passou a chamar Antonella de “mamãe” aos gritos. No dia em que sofri um acidente e perdi muito sangue, pai e filho passaram por mim sem sequer olhar para trás. Eles tinham pressa. Antonella estava em trabalho de parto. Lá em cima, eu morria, esvaída em sangue. Lá embaixo, eles comemoravam o nascimento de uma nova vida, balançando bastões de luz. Desta vez, não vou mais me abandonar por ninguém. Disquei para o diretor do instituto: — Quero me juntar à expedição na Antártida.

Como a companheira predestinada de Loki Whalen, Alfa da alcateia Darkshadow, eu sempre acreditei que seria sua única Luna por toda a vida. Mas hoje, essa mentira se despedaça. No registro oficial da alcateia, meu nome foi riscado como sua companheira. Em seu lugar está Maya Hemmings, a mulher que ele dizia ter deixado a alcateia anos atrás e que, na verdade, sempre foi seu verdadeiro amor. A verdade é cruel. Nesse instante, a dor excruciante de uma rejeição de vínculo dilacera minha alma. É então que percebo que a fraqueza que senti no último ano não vinha da dor de não conseguir engravidar, mas das consequências do nosso vínculo rompido. Loki precisa da minha poderosa linhagem sanguínea para gerar um herdeiro e salvar a alcateia da praga conhecida como Blight. O que ele não sabe é que, ontem, o curandeiro me disse que estou grávida dos gêmeos que ele sempre sonhou em ter. Já que o amor dele é uma mentira, eu não tenho mais motivos para ficar. Agora, partirei levando comigo seus verdadeiros herdeiros.

Três anos depois da minha morte, meu marido finalmente se lembrou da minha existência. Acontece que a amiga de infância dele teve uma recaída de leucemia e precisava urgente de um transplante de medula. Ele foi lá em casa para me fazer assinar a doação, mas quando chegou, não achou ninguém. Preocupado, procurou os vizinhos e começou a perguntar insistentemente por mim. Uma vizinha olhou para ele com pena e disse: — Você está falando da Carina? Ela morreu tem anos! Mesmo doente, arrancaram a medula dela. Voltou do hospital acabada e não aguentou. Meu marido se recusou a acreditar. Estava convencido de que a vizinha mentia para ele. Ele ficou vermelho de raiva, virou para mulher e gritou: — Se ver ela, avisa: se não aparecer em 3 dias, não pago mais nada para o tratamento daquele bastardo que ela insistiu em criar. A vizinha só suspirou, balançou a cabeça e resmungou baixinho: — Coitada, mas a criança já morreu de fome faz tempo...

For years, myths and legends about the Underworld revolved around the earth. The darkest, most horrible place you could ever think of. But they were just myths and legends, carvings of ancient stories. No, Hades -God of the Underworld- did not exist. No, there wasn't anyone who could rule a place like that. No, a mere person could not radiate fear and darkness. No, millions of souls certainly would never kneel down before just one person. That's what every single one of them believed in. Unless, he was an immortal of course. Like Hayden Stone. Ava Bensen, like every other sane human, did not believe in such stuff. Yes, she had a perfect life -or at least, that's what her parents wanted her to believe in. Rich parents. Beautiful looks. Caring best friends. Everything was perfect. But sometimes, people forget how perfection is just a fancy form of fear. Fear, that kills hundreds of people each day. Fear, that everyone despised and stayed away from. Fear, that could take form of the Furies, the deadliest creatures of the Underworld. Ava didn't know that. She didn't know what was coming her way. Not until she died. For real.
