I looked up at Hades’ handsome facial features with a dumbfounded look on my face, trying to make a sense of this rather puzzling situation. Hades, whom I thought had finally caught onto my long history of stanning Abel and yet understood all that, turned out to be still caught up in his overinflated ego.
