Anathema: a person or thing that is disliked or cursed; a cursed person
"Mortal, never trust a cursed being. They are evil, wicked. You must be careful of what you ask for. There is no turning back from a deal." She smirked darkly, her voice filled with mischievous.
The serpents around her hissed, as if to warn him to decline the offer, to escape while he had time, but he was already too far gone.
With a deep breath, he sealed his fate
"I accept."
Who could have known that one deal could change everything...

War Within
Athena was never meant to survive. Born a farmer's daughter in a dying empire, she watched as demons razed her home, as war swallowed her family, as Rome's corruption shattered everything she knew. Taken as a prisoner, forced into servitude under the infamous warlord Mira, she became a weapon-trained to kill, stripped of mercy, forged into something unrecognizable. Then, she died. Executed by the very city she fought to protect, Athena's soul should have been lost to the void. But the gods had other plans. The Angels of Heaven took her, erased her past, and reforged her as a warrior of balance-a soldier in a war older than empires, older than time itself. With the divine blade of the goddess Athena at her side, she was given a second life. A second chance. But vengeance does not die so easily.Complete
