The Mystery of Black Rabbit Lake
Chapter 29 - Hades

Ares looked at Opa, as if not believing Opa's words.

Papa Hades, who has been known as a cold and cruel person, turned out to be a person who loved his birth mother very much, even being the savior of Mama when Mama was down. Thank you, Papa Hades. If Papa is late to save Mama, Ares does not know the bad events especially what happened to his family, Ares' inner self.

Ares tried to hold back his feelings in front of Opa Mark. So far, it has not been terbersit at all in the thought of Ares that Papa Hades loves Mama Hera, even Ares has been wrong guessing who is the savior of Mama, Mama, because of Papa Hades attitude that was indifferent never even met Mama Hera all this time.

How can there be two loves in one life that come together? Loving Mama Hera and Mama Edith is just as big, inner Ares.

Ares shook his head. It is only Papa Hades who is capable of such a thing. Ares looked back at Opa Mark.

“Opa, I'll talk to Papa and think of a solution to this problem" Ares said.

Opa nodded.

“Only you can save Athena. Thank you, you took Athena away before the police arrested her. May Athena be well with you. Take good care of Opa and Oma's grandchildren, Ares. Protect your sister well. Because Zeus had asked you before Athena came to this world" said Opa, clasping Ares' hand.

Ares nodded for sure.

“Don't worry, Opa," Ares assured Opa.

“Then Opa returns home. Opa will be staying at the Athens apartment for a few days. Opa did not tell Oma this incident, Opa worried that Oma was sick again. Quickly solve this problem, Ares," said Opa.

“Iya, Opa. My dear greetings to everyone" Ares said as he drove Opa into his car which then left the Hades Mansion courtyard.

“David, where is Papa Hades now?" ask Ares to his secretary.

“In the villa near Melasti Beach, Bali, Tuan," replied David.

“Okay, now we go to the private island first. Tomorrow we just fly to Papa Hades villa" said Ares.

Athena was asleep in her room. He did not realize that a man had entered his room. Walk slowly towards her bed and sit next to her. The man stared fixedly at Athena, then gently stroked Athena's hair.

Athena suddenly squirmed her body.

The man immediately turned off the light that was lit next to Athena's bed, worried that Athena would wake up, open her eyes and look at the man's face. The room immediately turned dark as all the light in the room was extinguished. Only the light outside Athena's room entered the room through a glass door that became the barrier between Athena's room and the beach outside the room.

Athena opened her eyes slowly. Darkroom. Athena began to fear, her heart was pounding, her mind was back on the night of the murder, it was dark. Athena hated the darkness so much, that she deliberately left the lamp by her bed always on, always on, especially in a foreign place now.

Athena began to panic and fumbled at the table beside her bed to look for her sleeping light button. But suddenly a black shadow moved quickly from his bedside towards the door of his room.

“Kyaaaa..," cried Athena in panic, then immediately covered her face in fear.

Brakkkk.

“Nona... miss... are you okay? What's up, Miss?" robert asked in shock and panic at the condition of Miss Athena who was already crying sobbing in fear. Robert immediately turned on all the lights in Athena's bedroom because Athena's room was very dark.

“There is... there is a black shadow in my room. I. I. I'm so scared, Robert," said Athena stammering.

“Nona... Miss don't have to worry, there's nothing here. Look. This room is light now, miss. The black shadow is gone, miss," said Robert trying to calm Athena down.

Athena turned her face and looked at Robert.

“Please don't leave me, I'm so scared" said Athena.

Athena nodded.

How foolish I was to ask a man to accompany him in one room, when he had just known the man, the inner Athena.

“Is there a female servant who can accompany me in this room?" ask Athena to be ashamed.

“Sorry, Miss. In this house there was only me and a few male bodyguards outside. All the servants in this house are men, miss," Robert said.

“Why is that?" athena was confused.

“Because our Young Master wants it, Miss," replied Robert who hoped that Athena was quite satisfied with the answer she had given.

“Good. Thank you, Robert. You can go now. I'm sorry I woke you up last night. Go back to rest, Robert," said Athena had been able to control her fear.

Robert nodded and walked out of Athena's room.

“How is Athens now," Ares asked Robert after Robert entered his room.

“Aduh, Sir. You just startle me," said Robert, stroking his chest, shocked to hear his Master's voice as he opened the door to his room. His master who was wearing all black clothes with a black hat was standing by his bed.

It was fitting that Miss Athena was hysterical so, because her Master was dressed like a hit man in the movies, suddenly appearing beside Miss's bed, inner Robert.

 “He was hysterical when he saw me next to him" Ares said.

After Robert's heartbeat calmed down, he answered his Master's question.

“True, Sir. Miss was so scared that she cried. He asked the maidservant to accompany him" Robert explained to his Master. And prefer not to say that Miss Athena asked him to accompany her in the room, alone.

Ares smiled at Robert. Because Ares does not hire women in offices, in his Mansion and in all properties owned by Hades Group. Working with men is much more comfortable and free from rumors.

“Then?" ares asks her to know more about how Athena thinks after knowing that there is no woman other than her in this house. Is Athena getting scared?

“He thanked me, apologized for making me surprised and let me get back to rest," replied Robert as he shrugged and walked to his bed to sleep again.

“Okay. Thank goodness she was okay.”

“Master, next time don't surprise him again. Looks like Miss was still very traumatized by the incident that night. So it's better, you meet him during the day and don't hide anymore" Robert said.

Ares shut up and then walked out of Robert's room.

Robert was right, he shouldn't have done that. Someday, I will have to meet Athena and introduce myself as her sister, Inner Ares.

“Ah... It seems like I still don't want him to know who I am," murmured Ares and then walked into his room.

Ares immediately took off his hat and jacket, then lay down on his bed. The clock on the nightstand showed early morning.

“Better you never know who I am, because my presence will make you know the dark story that happened in your life," Ares murmured before falling asleep.
