When Zeus steals Ganymede away from his mortal life, the young prince is thrust into the heart of Olympus-an unwilling god, a beautiful prize, a pawn in a divine game. Alone in a world of immortals, he is met with pity, indifference, and thinly veiled amusement. But one god watches him differently.
Apollo, radiant and golden, sees more than just Zeus's newest trophy. He sees the fear in Ganymede's silver eyes, the loneliness in his quiet steps. And as time passes, the god of the sun and the boy of the stars find comfort in each other's presence.
In the grandeur of Olympus, where gods rule and mortals fade, the sun and the moon form an unbreakable bond-one of warmth, solace, and understanding, shining against the endless sky.

Tidal Wave (Luke Castellan)
When I was young, I was always told that everyone loved a tragic Greek love story. Orpheus and Eurydice. Apollo and Hyacinth. Hero and Leander. Achilles and Patroclus. I had asked my mother why so many of those stories didn't have happy endings. She just gave me a grim smile and told me how the world of the gods was tricky. There was a lot about it that I didn't understand yet. That was 13 years ago. I think I understand it now.
