They stole a goddess. In 1912, a sixteen-year-old girl stepped onto Earth for the first time... and vanished. Hidden in an underground lab, sealed in cold metal, stripped of her memories and her power, she slept as the world above her fell apart. No one knew her name. No one knew her father. No one knew the curse her disappearance unleashed. Hades - god of the dead - searched for her until he couldn't feel her soul at all. Believing she had slipped into the place even gods cannot reach, he shattered the veil between life and death. The apocalypse didn't begin with a virus. It began with a god's grief. Now, a century later, Persa opens her eyes in the ruins of a forgotten facility. Barefoot. Shaking. Ancient machines sparking around her. She doesn't know who she is. She doesn't know why the dead kneel when she cries. She doesn't know why her touch silences walkers. She doesn't know she is the last child of the Underworld. The only daughter Hades ever loved. His last light. His last hope. His last mistake. And as she wanders into a broken world, terrified and fragile, a group of survivors discovers the truth: Death doesn't walk the earth. She does. But when Persa finally remembers who she is... when she learns what happened to her father... when she realizes she is the only being who can end the curse- She will have to decide: Save humanity... or join her father in the forgotten realm and let the world burn. Walkers kneel for her. Souls whisper to her. The dead obey her. But she is still just a scared girl in a world that was destroyed for her.

And if this all goes smoothly, you two will be able to get divorced before the hockey season ends." "I have the places where you both will sign," His eyes lifted and scanned both of us. "But only of course, if you both agree to this." "I'll do it," I said honestly. Minnow sighed outwardly and bit her bottom lip. "If you need more time-" "No," she swallowed, staring at the thick packet in front of us. "I feel like this goes without saying but...no sex. Of any kind. It only complicates things." My cheeks flushed with heat, probably turning pink and Minnow choked. "We won't..." I shook my head, clenching my jaw. Shivers crossed my back. "You don't have to worry about that," Minnow said obviously. "Trust me." ***************************************** Minnow Noel is known for two things: being a hot head and an amazing figure skater.

I kissed my ex-boyfriend's biggest rival. In the middle of a stadium. In front of thousands of people. And somehow that wasn't the worst decision I made that night.

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)
