---------------------
You were meant to die that night.
You were sure of it.
Memories had flashed before you, visions of the life you'd never get to live dancing alongside them. This was how it was meant to end, you realized, crushed to death by the car of some idiot drunk driver. And for the first time, a certain thought had crossed your mind.
You weren't ready.
You were supposed to have a whole god damn life ahead of you, no matter how shitty it was. All of these moments of joy, pain, and struggle. All leading up to this?! Dying just after you reached your twenties, barely passing the gateway of adulthood?! This was fucking bullshit.
As if by the will of your own mind, you felt a strong hand tug your arm, dragging you out of the way. Just like that, the world around you had sped up again. You looked up to see your savior, only to catch a glimpse before he was just... gone.
Who was he? And why was his appearance so... wrong?

Hello friends! Welcome to my second greek mythology fan fiction! Updates might be slower with this one than my other story, Divinity, but I wanted to start another project before I lost the passion I had behind this idea. Basically, we have a grumpy y/n whose life got infiltrated by a chaos deity after he saved her life. She begins to have a new outlook, realizing for the first time in years that she wants to live. And Hermes is there to piss her off, of course.
