Aliana never believed in myths until the day they came to life.
When the ancient Greek gods' sacred tribes reveal their existence to her, she learns her destiny is far from ordinary: she is the heir to the throne of Alphenia, a tribe charged with protecting the human world from mythical creatures.
But fate is never simple and love is unpredictable; it knows no dividing lines and your other half may be hiding in the most unlikely place or even... in the face of your rival.
For Aliana that is the case.
When she meets Hector, the magnetic and enigmatic heir to Arenia, the rival tribe her people have battled for centuries, forbidden love and her duty to her tribe collide.
What is her fate after all? Is it what she's been told or something different?
Could she be walking toward Hades without even knowing?

Deck of Fate
Elora walks into the Assembly knowing full well that her chances of becoming anything other than a powerless Club, her family's symbol, are close to zero, and she is grateful for it. She has no desire to become a Diamond, with their supernatural intelligence, or a Heart with elemental magic, or Gods forbid, one of those pretentious special-powered Spades. She has always been resigned to serving the symbols she loathes, hoping to escape poverty and provide a better life for her mother. But when the Assembly brands her as a Spade, Elora's world is upended. Thrust into a deadly training base where survival is a test of will, she must navigate a world of privilege and power while grappling with her own prejudices.

But her newfound life of luxury comes at a cost, as she uncovers dangerous secrets that threaten to shatter everything she thought she wanted. As Elora and Rhiya's paths diverge, they must navigate the truth about their society, their symbols, and themselves. When the Clubs disappear and Arcana's fragile balance of power starts to crack, Elora and Rhiya must choose between embracing their new roles or dismantling the system that defines them.
