THE PANTHEON SERIES
Sometimes you have to seek monsters to escape a monster
My mom and I, we have a secret. For the last two years, we’ve been on the run from someone far worse than Ares, Hades and Vulcan. We’re tired of running. What better place to hide than behind the walls of Olympus? The home of The Pantheon, the mafia that controls East Haven?
When we arrive three dangerous men take an unlikely interest in me, despite my efforts to keep them at a distance.
​
Vulcan: The sweet, flirty tech wizard
Hades: The assassin with eyes so blue it hurts
Ares: The heir to it all with an attitude to match
The men of The Pantheon think they are the baddest of the bad, that living with them is a danger to my body, my soul and my virtue. I’m here for one reason and one reason only: Security. Their ten foot walls and cameras. Their guards and guns.
But they want to give me more.
They want to take more too.
In order to keep them safe, I must stay hidden
After four years, I’d finally found a place that felt like home: Olympus, the estate that houses The Pantheon and the three men who have stolen my heart.
Now, I’m alone and on the run again. This time I’m not only hiding from the monster who was my tormentor and torturer for two years, I’m also fleeing from the Ares, Vulcan and Hades, desperate to keep them safe.
My plan is simple: stay hidden until Matello Magri is taken care of.
But Ares Sarkellis has a plan too. One that involves capturing me, a ring and some serious forever type vows. A marriage of convenience meant to keep me safe, to offer me the protection of The Pantheon.
With Matello Magri creeping closer, a shadow that will forever follow me, I can’t risk them.
More importantly, I can’t risk myself
I’m living my waking nightmare.
After years of successfully hiding, the monster who tortured me for years has me in his grasp again. This time, Matello is even more determined to bend me to his will, to make me obey, to break me.
What he doesn’t realize is just how close I am to shattering. Not from the physical torment, but from not knowing what became of the three men who would tear down the world for me.
I don’t know if they’re alive. If they somehow survived Matello’s attack. But I fear they didn’t. It’s been months since he took me, months that I’ve withstood his ‘training’ and abuse. If they were alive, wouldn’t they have come for me?
If I think about it for too long, I will break. What I need is to focus, to understand why I’m here, Matello’s obsession with me. Once I’ve done that, I will use it against him, learn his secrets and he will be the one broken in the end.
