Valios had a terrible childhood, everyday, his skin would be inflicted with bruises, he needed a way to survive on his own albeit the abuse he had suffered from his parents. Especially to his own father. That's why the moment you two start to make love during your honeymoon, he hesitates to continue. Valios began to overthink that he might become like his father.

Yet you were there to reassure him that he's not like his father, he isn't like his parents. And that was enough to warm his heart and your first child was born.

Not until six years had passed, you began to hear your son's crying after you came home. The grocery bags fall down from your grip, and you start to find where that noise came from. Only to see your husband, Valios, holding a belt while your son, Luthor, is crying on the floor.

"Mama..." Luthor desperately called out to you, and you didn't hesitate to come towards him and embrace him. You turned your head to Valios, who seemed to realize what he had done based on his eyes widened and his lips parted slightly. He was about to reach Luthor, only to see his son flinched, which makes Valios remain silent.

Without waiting a word from you, he turned around and quickly left. How could he forget? No matter how much he tried to never become like them, he had his parents' blood ran through his veins.
