She was a piece of Heaven he wanted to own. And he, was the flames of Hell she wanted to tame. "You must be tired." The unparalleled face softens with an indulging smile, and I nod hastily like a chick pecking at grains. My reason, wisdom, and rationality became words of a foreign tongue when the fingers tangled amongst my hair trail down to my cheekbones, the caresses like the fine strokes of a paint brush that gave colour to my skin. "But next time." His eyes of hellfire narrows, reflecting the features of a iolite-eyed mortal, and crimson lips pull back over sharp canines. "I might not be as easy to tame." ■What happens when the greek god of the Underworld becomes the 'Grumpy Patient' to a kind hearted mortal, burdened by a curse untold, and a gift unrivalled.■ Slow burn ♡ Update schedule : Every 2 days ◇ #1 - Mythology, #3 - in fantasy, #4 - Humor

Sixteen-year-old Gabi Parker expects nothing exciting when she and her older brother move to the lake-side town of Kenosha, Wisconsin for the summer. It is soon discovered the lovely town has a strange habit of young men turning up dead in a grisly fashion along the beautiful shores of the lake. Police believe it to be a fast-moving serial killer. Old legend-believing townsfolk feel otherwise. By chance Gabi discovers that a bizarre noise calls out from over by the large rocks surrounding the harbor. It's a loud screech of a sound that only sounds alluring to young men... That's not her only surprise. The gorgeous lake seems to be home to creatures a salt-free lake really shouldn't hold. As Gabi begins to investigate the strange mystery surrounding the town, old stories based on Greek mythology may not be as imaginary as they seem... As Gabi tries to reconcile the fact that Gods and monsters are actually apart of reality she may not have a choice in helping a son of Poseidon and a daughter of Zeus solve the sick murder mystery surrounding the deaths of all the young men. Her own brother may be the mysterious killer's next target. Cover by xShreyaPandeyx

How do you punish a three-thousand-year-old god? By taking away everything that made him an immortal. By chance, the fates of destiny reveal that the eternally single immortal Apollo is destined to meet a human meant to be his blushing bride. Upon the discovery of whom the maiden is eighteen years after her birth, Apollo is livid to discover his betrothed is actually a foul-tempered brat with a very large chip on her shoulder. The sun god finds he absolutely loathes his intended bride nearly as much as she despises him. After horribly angering his father Zeus by wanting to disregard his very own prophecy, the king of the gods casts Apollo down to earth, cursing him to never step foot onto Olympus again for encountering his wrath. The catch...? The sun god has only three months to woo his mortal betrothed into loving him, otherwise, live out the rest of his days as a lowly human. To make matters worse, there are quite a number of enemies the former immortal has made throughout his long life that do not wish for him to regain his immortality...

They must return to Thule and warn the Uriel...before it's too late.
