After spending his whole life rising to the top of the engineering business, Icarus runs into a problem. His father. William Hart could barely even be considered a father, having abused and made Icarus's life hell throughout his teenage years, a drunkard drug addict who missed his wife and blamed Icarus for losing her. What could he want, after all these years? Pandora Pagida discovered something she never should have when she was young, and it has haunted her ever since. The nightmares have been lingering since she was a little girl. But recently, they aren't nightmares anymore, and they are becoming a reality again. Why are the dangers returning? (The main characters in this story are loosely based off characters from Greek Mythology.)

Death is what comes to people like a thief in the night, snatching them with no intentions of bringing them back. Death is a nagging parent that you try to outsmart time and time again but no matter how many times you may think you have outsmarted them, in the end they will have the last word. Death is the old friend that nobody likes and yet you cannot live without. Death is many things but I never thought it would be my lover. Kore lives alone with her controlling mother, Demi. She hasn't seen any other person besides her homeschool teacher since she was a little girl after a mysterious incident happened at school one day that her mother refuses to talk to her about. She keeps her locked away on a farm and only lets her go out occasionally. It isn't until her cat dies and after picking him up, becomes alive again when she realizes why her mother has locked her away for all these years. She discovers she has the gift of healing. When she confronts her mother about it, her mother reveals to her that they are not human but in fact, Goddesses trapped inside human vessels to protect Kore from the Gods who want to marry her. But things only get worse when one day, as Kore is picking flowers in the meadow, there is an earthquake and she is taken up by this earthquake and falls into the arms of none other than Hades. A modern re-imagining of the story of Persephone.
