Callie is surprised to find that her new kingdom isn't what she imagined, and neither are those who call it home.

Someone is after Hades' throne, and they want to open Tartarus once and for all. Callie and her new husband must travel between the Underworld, Earth, and Olympus to gain help from some larger-than-life gods and fix everything before it's too late.

Because You Loved Me
Hey readers! It's me, the writer, and I have decided to do something a little different for this story. I saw some videos on Youtube about the actors telling why their Disney Villain is the best, and it made me think. I might as well tell you why Hades is the best. That's right! Hades from Hercules. He's the God of the Underworld with a river of dead souls called River Styx. But of course, this Hades is based on the real Hades from Greek Mythology. No, he's not Death, and he has a very cute three-headed dog named Cerberus to guard his realm. Also, in the Odyssey, one must cross the ocean to get there. Well, those are my reasons why he's the best villain. Oh! This story will have one keyword....history. So look out for that, and that's the Gospel Truth.Complete

" Go for it", he heard the voice, Hades could remember the voice of any time, anywhere, as for how? He didn't care, he followed the instruction, his muscles clenched, and taking more out of his exhausted body on the brink of death he thrusted forward, his new Trident broke Qin's sword and pierced through his chest. ...
