The story
Love killed her last time. This time she's choosing Death.
The gods have heard a prophecy. The woman who carries the God Child of Destiny gets to bring down Zeus and take his place as King of All Gods. Last time around, Elara was the wife of Eros, God of Love. He fed on her soul fire day and night until she died worn out after giving birth. Reborn on the day the gods pick their brides, she watches her sister Cassia claim Eros and his golden arrow, and she reaches for the black scythe instead. That means Thanatos, the God of Death, the one every other god is terrified of. Everyone expects her to end up in hell. They're wrong. Love turns out to be the thing that devours, and Death turns out to be the one who saves. While Cassia turns to dark arts to force a divine birth, Thanatos gives up his own divine lifespan to heal Elara, and she carries an heir with the power to cut through fate itself. Now she's not only rewriting her own story, she's about to change who rules the gods.
