However, this year she's challenged something else: Tom Riddle who clearly isn't an open book. Eleanor accepts that challenge and when the silence between them after years of a seemingly calm competition is broken, she begins to crave another side of him that no one has ever seen. But when secrets from her family are revealed and she is faced with many difficulties that require her full attention, Eleanor realizes Tom is a distraction that's caused her life to meet a point where she has a dangerous choice to make: She can choose him, herself, or take the risk of changing him through her own journey of saving herself at the same time. But either way, neither path will lead her to anything more than a grim ending.

She was the Holy One. He took her, though. Death. Death took her in so many ways. That's how Illiana came to meet Thanatos. Through Death. The centre of his being.

Thanatos stood there, his gaze roaming over my half naked body. "Get the fuck out!" I squeaked. Thanatos smirked, stepping forward, his hand going up to wrap around my throat, pushing me against the mirror. My breath hitched in my throat, quick breaths escaping my mouth. His nose ran down the side of my face, across my jaw, stopping at the side of my mouth. My mouth opened. Thanatos stepped back smirking at my flustered state, walking away in a cocky gait. I slammed the door, my face flushing in embarrassment. #1 Thanatos #1 Charon #1 Bonded #2 Hades ♛♛♛♛
