Athena isn't supposed to exist. Born from a forbidden union between a fallen goddess and a mortal king, she's the prophecy every immortal fears: the Goddess of Ruin, destined to either save the divine realms or obliterate them entirely. When four powerful gods discover her hidden in the mortal world, they face an impossible choice: kill her before she awakens, or claim her as their fated mate and risk everything. Jeron, the ruthless God of Death, swears he'll be the one to end her. But the moment he touches her, the bond ignites, and he realizes the cruelest truth of all: destroying her means destroying himself. Now Athena must navigate a world of immortal lust, ancient betrayals, and a destiny she never wanted, while four gods will burn down heaven and hell to make her theirs.
