Sixteen years ago, Ares Volandros was supposed to die with the rest of his family.
But fate had other plans.
Now, hidden behind the name Ares Kyrianos, he lives inside the home of the man who slaughtered his bloodline - earning his trust, rising through his ranks, and planning his fall. His heart is cold, his purpose clear: revenge.
Until she appears.
Claiming to be the enemy's daughter, she is bold, mysterious, and far too dangerous to ignore. What Ares doesn't know is that she's playing her own game - one built on secrets, loyalty, and a hidden bond to Ares's past. She wants the same revenge. And she has a reason far deeper than blood.
They don't recognize each other, not yet. But their paths tangle with every moment, pulling them closer through betrayal, attraction, and the quiet war of unspoken truths.
And when the time comes to choose - between love and legacy, vengeance and truth - Ares will have to decide:
Will he burn down his past for her...
or rise from it with his name carved into the world again?

Ares
• MATURE STORY • Sydney couldn't help but give her best friend curious eyes after that encounter, watching the stunning man walk away from the corner of her eyes. She saw how he stopped to stare at her best friend. "Care to explain?" she asked, a small smile beginning to erupt. "We're just friends, barely friends even." Grace told Sydney.

Ares decides to pull a classic move on the day of his wedding, 'the run away Groom'. He soon finds himself down on earth in a small little flower store where he meets the temptress he had no idea he'd been waiting for. Grace knows Ares is devastatingly handsome, charming and confident. He is also a conceited, hedonistic playboy, who knows no boundaries. Grace desperately does not want to be attracted to him, but she can't control the overwhelming effect he has on her. Every instinct is telling her to run, to protect herself, so she does, but Ares is not so willing to let her go. He wants her and is determined to have her. She knows she's heading for heartbreak, but how can she run when he won't let her? ♡♡♡♡♡ "I'm going to ruin you. I"ll be your first, and I'll fuck you so thoroughly that I'll be your last, too. You won't want any other man after I've gotten my hands on you. Every last inch of you. You're mine." "I hate you!" she screamed, her eyes lighten with a fierce rage, tears streaming down her face, her fists throwing themselves at his chest repeatedly. "I hate you, I hate you, I hate you." she cried. "S'agapo." he whispered, gently wiping her tears away.Complete
HIS SECRET
In a world that had long since turned its back on him, she was the flicker of warmth he never deserved. He kept her close, shielding her from the chaos that hunted them both, whispering promises he wasn't sure he could keep. He carried secrets-ones that could unravel everything between them. So he lied. Not with words, but with silence. With every quiet moment, every deflection, every "not now," he built a wall between her heart and the truth. And though he succeeded in protecting her from the darkness he buried, he began to lose her in the process. Her patience thinned. Her questions grew sharper. Her eyes, once filled with trust, now searched him for answers he refused to give. But then he discovered the truth he was hiding was only the beginning-a fragment of something far more devastating. And with that revelation came a choice: to keep protecting her, or become the very thing she needed protection from. Could he bear the pain of what was coming? Could he still be her shield, or would he become her hunter-like the past he'd tried so desperately to escape? When the moment comes, he will have to choose. Love. Or revelation.

Waiting for You Forever
She had it all-his love, his trust, his unwavering heart. But in a moment of weakness, she chose a path that shattered everything. Her betrayal wasn't just of a promise; it was of a soul deeply entwined with hers. When he discovered the truth, he left-not in anger, but in silence, carrying the pain like a wound too deep to ever heal. He never looked back, and he never returned. She begged for forgiveness, haunted by the weight of what she had done. Days turned into months, months into years, yet her heart remained chained to a hope that refused to die. Every knock at the door, every passing shadow stirred a flicker of belief-maybe today, he'll come back. But he never did. Now she lives with the ghost of her choices, trapped in an endless cycle of regret and longing. His absence echoes louder than any goodbye, and though the world moved on, she stood still-forever waiting for the love she lost, and the forgiveness that never came.

When Odysseus carelessly questions the nature of their relationship, it forces Medeia and Ares to confront what has long gone unsaid between them. But words are not enough.

In a temple heavy with divine history, Ares swears a sacred oath to fight beside her, binding himself to her cause in ways that even he does not yet fully understand. As the mark of their pact burns into his skin, Olympus stirs with unease. The Goddess of Vengeance and the God of War, standing united? It is a bond that could shift the balance of power among the gods. A bond that could bring justice to the unjust... or destruction to all who stand in their way. And Zeus? He is watching. Waiting.

Zeus
Gangs. A girl. War. Fights. Love. Hate. Death. All words to describe the city of Athens. The most dangerous city in the country. But only those who have been there know that. Athens is not a place for tourism. Not many people who visit, make it out alive. Vicki, 16, has finally found a home willing to adopt her after 6 years of jumping from home to home, family to family, foster to foster. Some were good. Some bad. Some could, would, and did the unthinkable. But now she didnt have to deal with that. But she had no idea of the secrets that the friendly "welcome to Athens" sign hides. Or did she? She wasn't ever supposed to end up in the system. Or end up on her meds. She remembered nothing of her life before 10 years old. She had always knew something was missing, but this? This was more than she could ever handle remembering. **** "Wow, I thought it was just you guys and Artemis." "There's a whole world of gangs. There are gangs in every country, some even I don't know as a leader." "Is it tough being a leader?" "Some times. Especially when I have to deal with loss. But I also give some opportunities to people who need it. I've even given a homeless man a small job and it set him up for life." "That's cool. Are the Zusians tyrants. I mean were they?" something about the name doesn't shake me. It's stuck in my head for some reason. "They more are now. There's speculation that a kid got out safe and will one day take back the leadership, but after seeing the wreckage first hand, I don't think anybody left it alive," he says it. But he doesn't sound like he even believes himself. "Did the kid get out? Is it even slightly possible?" "Between you and me. I helped her escape. I know she got out. But I don't think she lived long after we lost contact. Why do you ask?" "Something about the name... It is vaguely familiar but I don't know why. Maybe it's just my meds." "You might have just heard it before." *** Cover by @_scintillasComplete
