14 parts Ongoing MatureDeath covets life-but she never looks his way.
Until one fateful day.
When archaeology student Ella drunkenly stumbles into a forgotten ruin in Greece, the last thing she expects is to wake a god. But her blood, spilled upon an ancient altar, does the unthinkable-it stirs Thanatos, the primordial god of death, from his first peaceful slumber in eons. He had been resting, taking a divine "vacation" granted by his twin brother Hypnos, when a mortal's curiosity quite literally kissed him awake.
Now, Death walks the mortal world again-irritated, weary, and tethered to the woman who woke him. Ella, on the other hand, is horrified to discover she's not just trespassed on sacred ground but accidentally bound herself to the very embodiment of mortality. The two are forced into an uneasy coexistence: she, the living spark he was never meant to touch; he, the shadow who was never meant to linger.
As their worlds collide-Greek ruins, meddling gods, divine bureaucracy, and one very cranky reaper-they begin to learn from one another. Thanatos, who has always known endings, discovers what it means to live. Ella, who has always chased the past, learns to see beauty in the inevitable.
Their story unfolds between laughter and sorrow, myth and mortal folly-a dance between life and death itself. But love, like all living things, has a time limit. Once the fates cut the threads of their story, will they break the order of existence-or will Death carry away the woman who taught him how to feel?
A blend of Greek mythology, dark romance, tragedy, and comedy, Bride of Thanatos is a tale where death start to yearn more than just an ending, life learns surrender, and eternity holds its breath for love that was never meant to be.
