Now, Thanatos must choose between duty and love, breaking the rules or losing her forever.

She was the Holy One. He took her, though. Death. Death took her in so many ways. That's how Illiana came to meet Thanatos. Through Death. The centre of his being. And he'd be damned if she was taken away from him. She was his, and he was hers. Through both blood, and soul. ♛♛♛♛ The door clicked open, a silent scream leaved my watery lips. Thanatos stood there, his gaze roaming over my half naked body. "Get the fuck out!" I squeaked. Thanatos smirked, stepping forward, his hand going up to wrap around my throat, pushing me against the mirror. My breath hitched in my throat, quick breaths escaping my mouth. His nose ran down the side of my face, across my jaw, stopping at the side of my mouth. My mouth opened. Thanatos stepped back smirking at my flustered state, walking away in a cocky gait. I slammed the door, my face flushing in embarrassment. #1 Thanatos #1 Charon #1 Bonded #2 Hades ♛♛♛♛Complete
The Beauty Of Death (COMPLETE)
Aphrodite was tasked to make Thanatos a beautiful, mortal wife. To sit along his throne in the underworld. She was made to appear a soft, delicate flower, so much love to share, and optimism no one really had. Thanatos is the personification of death. You know, the man in the dark hooded tunic with the scythe. A Greek god tasked to collect souls of the newly deceased and bring them to the underworld. He decided when their time was up, merely decided the fate of individuals. He is the son of Nyx, goddess of night, and the brother of Hypnos, God of sleep. However a soul so sweet didn't deserve to be there. Thanatos knew her purpose, watched over her since she had been born, his hard shell never deliberately expressing care for her. But at 25 Aphrodite confronted Thanatos to bring his betrothed to the underworld. He refused, but time was ticking, the people were growing impatient. It had to be done.Complete
