We all know the legendary tale of Perseus-the demigod, son of Zeus, and slayer of Medusa, the half-snake, half-human Gorgon. But what if I told you the story of Perseus isn't what you think? What if he didn't kill Medusa, marry Andromeda, or save her city from the Kraken? What if Perseus had a male lover from our time, the twenty-first century? Jonathan Hank, a troubled young man, can't seem to catch a break. His home is filled with misery, especially from his alcoholic father. He would've taken his own life if not for Alexander, his deceased boyfriend, who showed him that life has its bright moments. After a devastating incident at his younger sister Valerie's birthday party, Jonathan's father takes something precious from him-something that keeps the memory of Alexander alive. This loss drives Jonathan to a fateful encounter with a strange man, or perhaps something else entirely-an entity offering him a wish. A wish he never imagined he'd get, one he's longed for even before meeting Alexander. But is this stranger human? Or is there something darker at play?

Minho aka Hades rules alone in the underworld. Though once in a while he goes out to visit the Earth to see Gia's creation called humanity and nature. While during one of these trips he sees something beyond anything ever imagined, a boy surrounded by flowers with ethereal beauty. He becomes attracted to the boy and wants to take him to be his queen. Even when discovering that the boy was the first born son of Demeter, Kibum, Minho didn't care. So dismissing the consequences he takes Kibum back to the underworld with him. What happens to the king of the underworld when he tries in vain to get this boy to be his bride? (my take on the Persephone and Hades myth)
