HOW IT BEGAN

Aspen was, well, is my childhood best friend. He's a God, full fledged since his dad passed away. I don't actually know what his powers are, seeing as his father was a set of twins, so his brother has taken over his job.

Aspen was dark, not like skin color, but pretty much everything else.

His first girlfriend was one sorry she god, and after I finished with her, Aphrodite wouldn't even love her.

It didn't help that she was my cousin. Still can not stand her.

Aspen is tall, like six, seven, and very very strong. His floppy hair is black as night and soft as a cloud. But you know, it doesn't disappear when you touch it like a cloud.

His eyes are the most captivating shade of blue, like a deep purple, and his lips are the palest pink I've ever seen.

He has the typical bronze tan every fitted god has, all in all, he is a gorgeous lad.

Aspen is the one I fell in love with.

Mason was wealthy, even by a gods standards. My parents had this crazy idea that I should have an arranged marriage, the first in oh, a thousand years.

The idea was brought up to the Elders, and they agreed. Mason was the God of Prosperous Intuition. For every dollar his charges made, he made a couple grand on our side of the curtain.

You see, my name is Kenna Farrah. I am Aphrodite's granddaughter. I can influence love, a great deal of it. Now, why on earth money and love would go together in my parents minds I don't know, but that's how this mess got started.

But the sad thing is, when you spend a lot of time with someone, you either hate them, or grow to love them. I couldn't hate my future husband, so I grew to love him.

Sometimes, a god has to enter the Mortal Plane and intervene in real form. Has to bring to life their prayers, or make a prophecy come to life. Every foretelling is bound to happen, or the fabric of reality will come undone. Super right?

So I had to go with him. And thus, bang I started to fall for the guy, and when I got back Aspen had spoken to my parents, and get this! Left the choice to me.

You can't hide anything from the Elders. ANYTHING! So when posed with the question of which god I wanted, not only did they curse my grandmothers name and all her children, but they punished me for falling in love with two Immortals.

Mason was sent back to Earth as a poor mans son. Growing up to be wealthy and as it happened greedy. When I found him, he was shot down at a press conference justifying abortion as he had knocked up six, count them, six girls and he had pressured them to get rid of the child.

His time had ended, and so Mason and I wouldn't be together. I was actually thankful.

Now, you'd think that Aspen and I would get to skip the drama and just end up together right? Wrong.

I couldn't find him, so I gave up trying. Stupid I know. I figured he'd died and I'd see him on that side of the veil.

I got drunk, and high. I partied, and was reckless. In a way, I didn't care if I died or not. My reason for coming to Earth was gone, so who cared?

I had a total of twenty one years to find both the boys. I was sent to Earth in my seventeen year old body, and it would stay seventeen until it died.

And so, I got a nice little visit from my mom. She cussed me out hard core. She made me realize the one thing I'd missed.

There was a reason every other time this measure has been taken, it ended with all involved dying.

If the guilty party can't find the others involved, and fall in love all over again all will cease to exist.

My soul will disappear.

And that is why my party days ended so quickly.

And because I only had five years to find Aspen and make him love me again. And I had to fall in love with the person the human world created.

But first I had to find him
