Severus' POV
Hadrian stopped moving. He wasn't breathing. His body has gotten cold. His face has lost a lot of color. He looked pale.

Fred and George knew he would come back, but they were holding onto his for dear life, not that I wasn't.

"He will be back." I said. I know I am terrified of losing him. But one thing about Hadrian is that he never goes back on his word. He said that he would come back, which means he would make sure he came back.

It has been a minute, and Remus was slowly losing control of his wolf. His eyes were turning amber.

"Stay where you are, Moony." Fred said.

"Hades said he will be back." George said.

"If you wreak havoc, he would be upset." They finished.

Remus calmed down.

"How did the two of you do it?" He asked.

"Hades once said that we could use him to control the wolf in you." They said.

A few more minutes later, Hadrian was getting his color back in his face. His body was getting the usual body temperature.

"The connection is forming again. The void is slowly going away. He is coming back." They said. Their voices showed how happy they were.

Fred and George were looking at him without blinking so as to not miss Hadrian opening his eyes and looking at them.

I am glad that my son has these two demons to look after him.

A few more minutes later, Hadrian began to move his head and scrunch his nose as he woke up from sleep.

When Hadrian opened his eyes, he saw the twin close to his face. He smiled and hugged both of them and whispered, "I'm back."

The twins hugged him but were careful not to use too much force.

"How was it?" They asked.

"Honesty, the pain was awful. The worst I ever felt. But the death realm was beautiful. Mortem even managed to make my personal quarters look exactly like this room so that I could feel like I was at home." Hadrian said.

"That is good." The twins said.

"Is there any change in you?" I asked.

"Mortem said that physically, my eye color would change to obsidian black and there would be symbols under my eyes when I use necromancy or do something related to the realm, but other than that, nothing. He said that my core was already at its maximum capacity, and there was no way to make me even stronger. He said that I was the most powerful master he ever had." Hadrian said.

Hadrian tried to get up, but Fred and George did not let him.

"Rest today, we will talk tomorrow. Your body needs it." They said.

He nodded and closed his eyes. A few minutes later, he fell asleep.

"Let him rest. We shall ask him again later tomorrow." I said as I walked out of the room. Tom followed me for the fear of me shouting at him.

When we were out, I could hear the twins shooing Black and Lupin out of Hadrian's room.

When we were back in our room, I turned to him and asked, "Why were you silent?"

"I was still digesting the fact that Hadrian died for the third time." He said.

That was true. He died for the third time and still came back.

"Severus, I am really sorry for what I have done to you. I really am. Please give me one more chance. I will not let anything happen to you or our son and his mates." He pleaded.

"How should I believe? Why should I believe you? You promised to never cheat, and you did, you promised to always believe me, but you didn't. You are the reason my son had to die a second time, and I would have been dead if not for me to be ready for any situation." I asked. I know my voice was cold, but I did deserve answers.

"I know. I wasn't myself. The splitting of my soul made me lose my mind. I wasn't myself when you saw me that day. I was under a very strong love potion. I didn't do anything, though. I fought against it and bound myself to the ground and called for someone for an antidote. I know I should have trusted you when you said he was my son. It was only three months after you left that I found you. I was mad to not have trusted you. I am really sorry. Do whatever you want, curse me, hurt me, but please don't leave me Severus. I need you. I love you, I… I can't live without you." He begged as he fell to the floor on his knees.

He is right, though. The horcruxes made him lose his mind. If he was really under a love potion, it couldn't be helped. He said he didn't do anything.

I decided to forgive him and give him another chance. If he blew this one, not even Hadrian could save him from me.

"Alright. I will give you one more chance. You blow this up, not even the gods can help you." I said.

He was so happy that he got up on his knees and tried to hug me.

I stopped him and said, "For anything to happen between us, even a hug, or a kiss, you need to make Hadrian call you father. You need his trust to get the family back. I shall tell him that I am giving you a chance, and I will tell him the condition to get back with me, so it will be up to him when you get back to me." I said as I walked to the bed.

He nodded and walked to the couch and got himself comfortable to sleep.
