Summary
"All her growth was the conveying of a corpse of hope."
(From 'The Rainbow', D.H. Lawrence)This is a story about coming into one's own, a meditation on the twilight of girlhood and the violence of crash-landing into womanhood. Follow Hermione as she navigates through the quagmire: Saving the world, getting top grades, falling in love, lust, and a whole lot of trouble, and comes out of it hopefully (at least) partially sane.

Xena, Gabrielle, and Eve face destruction as the gods unleash their wrath. At her breaking point, Xena calls for Ares. He reminds her of their deal: his help in exchange for her becoming his and bearing his child. Desperate, Xena accepts, but with the deal made, her path to redemption becomes uncertain, and darker thoughts begin to cloud her mind.

Summary
He almost kills her in a fit of madness. And, unlocks a side of her that drives them both wild - and for once, gets to her as he never did as a god. But if he is to stay mortal, he won’t settle for breadcrumbs. If all she can give him is several days of playing house — well, he’s got a better offer. Alecto offers immortality and the throne of the King of the Gods.
