✰ONHOLD | The Lost Relics of Death (Mythos 1)
HELA AVRIL DAYANGHIRANG doesn't have a good reputation unlike her father, a history professor in University of Oslo. No one wanted to befriend her because of how she treats others. But that's not the least of her problems. Mythological monsters and Norse gods seem to be walking straight out of her father's profession and into her life.
And worse, she starts to see the spirits wandering around in the city, trying to communicate with her. A horrifying giant dog of the underworld, two flesh looking people wearing a servant uniform, telling her that her mom is in danger, so is her life, and the world, and a middle aged man asking her to join an agency for demigods appeared before her, telling her that her father was kidnapped by the dark elves.
Now that she's all alone, and filled with questions, Hela must face them on her own. Evil forces are coming to hunt her, and demand to hand over the lost relics of death which she knows nothing about.
Lavender is in love with Yuan, the perfect guy--kind, sweet, charming, and a musician like her. The problem? He's not real. He only exists in her dreams.
***
Lavender Laxamana can't sing or play the guitar in front of anyone anymore. She hides in her dreams where she can perform and play music to her heart's desire with Yuan. Lavender has already accepted that the man she loves is just a figment of her imagination, but when she crosses paths with Aki, a starting artist who goes by the name of Musikero and looks and sounds like Yuan, Lavender is hopeful they can finally be together in real life. But reality slaps her in the face when she finds out Aki is the exact opposite of Yuan, and he loathes her.
While Lavender struggles to find the connection between Yuan and Aki, can she finally find the courage to stop escaping from reality--no matter that Aki may be in love with another woman? And can she finally face the rhythm and beats of her heart and pursue her passion again? How far will she go--or not go--for her dreams?
