    Summary

    Thanatos is no stranger to Death, and he is most certainly not afraid to die. If offering himself as a human sacrifice to Lord Ares will allow his people to win the war... If it buys his mother more time... He will gladly put down his life.

    Summary

    "Please consider what I’m about to say. Think of it as you return to your mother. You must put as much thought into it as you can. Will you? Please, promise me you will.”

    “Yes! Whatever it is, I’ll consider it.”

    “Eventually Lord Hades will have mercy upon you. He will. I know that must sound strange—the most severe of the gods showing mercy where his kindred won’t—but it’s the truth. The Olympians are more… unreliable. The only way I can see to protect the Underworld and in turn you and your mother is this: Bind yourself to me.” His hands tremble. He brushes his thumb along the crook of Zag’s throat, so very sweet, even when he’s rigid with tension. “Wed me.”

     

    Raised by his mother far away from both Olympus and the Underworld, a strange series of events leads Zagreus to meeting a faceless, nameless Chthonic god.

    Summary

    “You like him,” Ares says joyful, smile young, the smile she fell in love with so, so long ago, when she could still remember the smell of the old sea.

    “He’s very pretty,” Aphrodite says with a sniff. “It makes your infatuation tolerable.”

    Ares laughs so large, so loud, picks her up as if she weighs nothing and she stops pretending distaste so she can catch his smile, taste his laughter.
