The Iliad (sometimes referred to as the Song of Ilion or Song of Ilium) is an ancient Greek epic poem in dactylic hexameter, traditionally attributed to Homer. Set during the Trojan War, the ten-year siege of the city of Troy (Ilium) by a coalition of Greek states, it tells of the battles and events during the weeks of a quarrel between King Agamemnon and the warrior Achilles. The Iliad is paired with something of a sequel, the Odyssey, also attributed to Homer. Along with the Odyssey, the Iliad is among the oldest extant works of Western literature, and its written version is usually dated to around the 8th century BC. Recent statistical modelling based on language evolution gives a date of 760-710 BC.

Patroclus had followed Achilles to Troy, but not like so many thought because of his Oath as a suitor of the kidnapped Helen. His motives unclear even to his closest friend Achilles, he steered 10 ships towards Troy- and following his friend and love. Emotions running high in the camp as they lay siege on Troy, Patroclus takes risks and hot-headed Achilles is left to wonder- and wonder as Patroclus follows his heart for what seems like the first time in his life. [This is a one-shot that is part of the Slash Fic Contest held by @Fanfic running May 2015~ please enjoy and sorry about the shitty description >.<] **For those of you who don't know- Achilles and Patroclus are characters in Homer's Epic "The Illiad"~ it's a great read, go check it out** {for references I used Homer's The Illiad- originally translated by E.V. Rieu and revised and updated by Peter Jones and D.C.H. Rieu}

What if everything you knew about yourself was a lie? Mildred "Mills" Millhatten had a good life: close-knit family, fantastic friends, decent grades and even a not-totally-annoying kid brother. You might say it was the best kind of ordinary. So nothing could have prepared her for being taken and cast into a strange, vicious world that she didn't know existed and has little hope of understanding. As a Bleeder - one whose lifeblood feeds the Nosferatu - her continued survival hangs ever in the balance. The creatures are keeping her alive because they believe her blood has mystical properties. Mills fears what will happen when they realize they are wrong. If she hopes to survive and discover who she truly is, she needs an ally. She needs to befriend the mysterious boy who's been secretly visiting her cell, even though he's destined to become a bloodthirsty monster. Because she lives in their world now, and if she doesn't do something fast, she's going to die in it too.
