Arrow 2: Crystal | Jinah & Hades
a continuation of this post
So perhaps Hades should have known that this day was not going to become one of his best. Why? Because Eros had told him a little while ago to stay inside. There hadn’t been a reason given, but Hades always makes sure to listen to his fellow gods - especially the mischievous ones - because he knows their advice might save him from a day of horror. Which means that he has been inside for the entirety of the day already. What he failed to take into account, however, is his diminishing supply of food and his immense boredom requiring munches to get through.
That’s why he eventually decides to go to the grocery store. A quick portal through the Underworld takes him there in no time without the risk of getting in the way of whatever it is Eros has planned. He manages to get his selection of cookies, chips, candies and soda, pays for it all quietly and turns away from the counter, ready to take a portal back.
That’s when he spots Jinah near the entrance of the store. Everyone who knows him has always told him that his kindness and care are going to be his downfall, but who knew it would be so true? A short moment of saying hello and asking how she’s been can’t hurt, right? Right. So he heads over to the door as well, smiling warmly at the sight of his favourite nurse and stopping in the opening.
“Hello there y-” He can’t finish his sentence, because it feels like someone hits him on his back - hard. And if something feels like a blow to Hades, the one dealing it must be immensely impressive. Turning his head slightly to see who’s behind him, Hades’ eyes find no one whatsoever. He frowns lightly, then turns back to Jinah so he can finish his sentence. But an entirely different set of feelings starts bubbling up inside of him. Complete, utter and unrelenting lust courses through his veins just a split second later.
“…” His mouth opens, from the sheer enormity of the feeling, and he takes a small step back. Now although he enjoys the times he has spent with his wife, he is not usually this suddenly aroused in the middle of nowhere. Especially not because of someone who just moments ago felt so clearly like a sort of family to him. Anything but someone he wanted to dive into bed with. Yet here he is, heavily entertaining the possibility. So heavily that it even clouds his regular thinking.
“…You.” The word finally makes it past his lips a moment later, his entire expression and demeanour having shifted now. There is a certain dangerous vibe about him now that wasn’t there before, like a predator having locked in on its prey. A handsome smile tugs up the corners of his mouth a moment later and he moves to lean against the doorpost. Who the hell cares if he’s blocking the way for people trying to get in or out? This beautiful woman in front of him needs to get into his bed like five seconds ago. “It’s been a while.”
