Chapter 137 - 137. Hail Hydra!

Humans are unreasonable.

Women are even more unreasonable.

And a pregnant woman? …. That's a next level raid boss… a raid boss you can't attack or harm but no matter what you do you will attract aggro from it.

The best solution is to not at all trigger aggro from the boss, because once you do it's a headache…. And it's a headache you have to certainly deal with because running away or shelving it isn't an option….

…..

Adrian gazed at his future wife who was glaring at him like he had wronged her somehow, as tears of grievance were rolling down her face.

"Y-You are bullying m-me! " Kwanon said in hurt one as she pouted at Adrian.

'So asking you to marry me is bullying??!' Adrian's was gentle but inside he was feeling the urge to bang his head against the wall.

"I'm sorry… but I just hate it when you don't value yourself…" Adrian gently tugged on Kwanon's puffed up cheeks making her swat his hand away while turning her head away.

" Don't doubt yourself love … because it's insulting to me , do you think my feelings are fake or my decision to have a child with you was a mistake…." Adrian's tone was gentle but firm as Kwanon couldn't meet his gaze while she felt his thumb brush her cheek gently.

" I-I…" Kwanon whispered in a guilty tone as Adrian continued making her tear up even more.

" Kwanon… I love you … and although I might be far from perfect, I wish to spend the rest of my life with you by my side….will you give me that honour? " Adrian asked with a gentle smile as he made Kwanon gaze at him , cupping her face lovingly while he used his thumb to brush her tears away , but more just kept pouring down.

Kwanon's lips trembled as she mouthed the words of affirmation while sobbing.

"Y-Yes…" Kwanon threw herself into Adrian's chest as she clung to him tightly while crying her eyes out.

Adrian just hugged her as he let her vent her emotions, he hoped from now on the reason for her tears would never be her sadness….

….

Adrian gazed at Kwanon who was sleeping on his chest as she had tired herself out from crying, he smiled helplessly as he softly caressed her cheek while moving some stray strands away from her face.

Hi gently picked her up and moved to their bedroom hoping to get some rest , even if he didn't feel fatigue the feeling of taking a nap was still refreshing on the mind….

….

Adrian was wide awake as he gazed at the ceiling while his hands gently caressed Kwanon's sleeping form while she leaned against his chest with a comfortable look on her place.

Adrian was deep in his thoughts, as his thoughts were on his future, his lover's future , his family…. Helping people felt nice , the satisfaction and fulfillment of being there for someone in genuine need was a wonderful feeling… but did he want to help others at the expense of his own safety?

He can't be reckless like before, he was going to be a father and he didn't want them to grow up without one , like he did.

And a hero is just a villain in another's story in most cases , Adrian was planning on getting rid of Norman Osborn, so to Harry Osborn the son of Norman , he would be a villain.

It was just a matter of perspective… and if doing the right thing made the people close to him suffer… then should he not do it ?

Adrian's palm was resting against Kwanon's tummy as he furrowed his brow deep in thought.

Was he truly willing to do anything to protect this woman in his arms ? …. Anything?

Adrian didn't want to be forced to make a choice … so he would rather not come to a situation where he would have to make a hard choice….

….

Kwanon was a Mutant, the child growing in her belly would also be a mutant… so what did he want to do to those people who wanted to actively bring harm to mutants….

The answer was quite simple actually….

...

Shield Helicarrier…

…..

Fury had a somber look on his face as he gazed at the images before him it was very gory and extreme to the point that fury wondered if this was truly the work of hydra as stated in the image before him.

It was an image of Colonel William Stryker with his guts torn apart , he was hanged using his own intestines and all his fingers and toes were cut off and shoved inside his eyes and mouth creating quite a gruesome sight.

The fingers were arranged like a flower was blooming in Stryker's face and behind him using the dismembered bodies of his soldiers the words 'Hail Hydra' was written.

Fury had some idea on the projects being handled there , also the kind of man Stryker was …. And Stryker was well connected to the US military and government.

Was this Hydra's way to make a statement? To announce their return with slaughter of such a high profile target ?

Fury had a nagging feeling that there was more to it , but at the same time this was Hydra , brutality wasn't something foreign to them….

...

Extra ….

Getting rejected….

The part of Adrian getting rejected by Gwen when they were young…

…..

"A-Addy I-I … can we just stay the way we are ?... " Gwen bit her lips as she said nervously, she was caught off guard by her childhood friend's confession and rejected him, she berated herself for being an idiot as she gazed at Adrian's expression that dimmed a bit.

Gwen would be lying if she said she didn't like Adrian at all , she didn't know what she felt about him.

She didn't like it when he talked with those flirty girls , or when those harpies from class tried to swarm him like vultures.

She loved spending time with him , she liked the way he smiled at her , hugged her , brushed stray strands away from her face .... Was she in love with him ? …..

….

She was … wasn't she….

…..

Gwen was happy with Adrian's confession but her nerves got the better of her and she ended up rejecting him , fearing the next step.

Gwen just felt that everything should be fine after a while since she and Adrian would go back to the way it was … and maybe after a while she could finally gather the courage to take the next step… up until then she wanted to just enjoy her time with him… surely nothing bad would happen…. Right?

…..

Absolutely nothing bad will happen 🐍
