Ever since Eleanor Belshaw was little, she always tried to escape her father's constant tales of history. From myths to battles, it was all in the past. Some of them weren't even real, so what was the point?
Well, that's what she thought until her life is revealed to be one of those tales.
As the reincarnation of the infamous Helen of Troy, Elle continues to suffer at the hands of the ancient world and its nonstop drama. While the conniving goddesses may have been replaced with scheming pageant girls, chaos remains to be a threat for her small town. If she wants to prevent the tragedy of the past from becoming her future, Elle must be willing to take the necessary risks.
Even if it means partnering with the guy who wanted her dead all those years ago.

The Traitors
The Mallard Corporation was one of the largest research and development labs in the Eastern Division. After several years of testing, they released a serum to the public said to enhance pre-existing traits within a person's genetic makeup. The distribution was a success, but the aftermath declared the serum defected. People were developing unnatural abilities and began reeking havoc within the city. A recall was in order and those who had taken the serum, now referred to as Traitors, were gathered up to be transported to a holding location until these Traits could be removed. While some had uncontrollable Traits, others had Traits which were easier to hide so they remained inconspicuous to the public eye. Logan Fierce was constantly battling the demons in his past. It had been three years since his release from Mal Corp, but the trauma he faced was ever present. Determined to fulfill a request left behind by a friend, he encounters Phoenix Monroe; a fellow Traitor who was predicted to change his life forever. Follow their journey in this dual POV as they jumpstart a series of events which would lead them to discover the truth hidden within Mal Corp and the betrayal which is closer than they think. **This story contains adult themes such as: strong language, abuse, sexual situations, self-harm, and violence** Sensitive chapters which may be triggering for readers are marked with asterisks. *If any of the following are triggering for you as the reader, please don't read or read at your own discretion.
