Content to be ignored by not only his wife, but the rest of the Olympians, Hades, Lord of the Dead has always been alone. Gruff and obstinate, Hades preferred the silence of his library to the chaos of the nursery and the troubles of the human world. His anger at the betrayal of the goddesses had more to do with being neglected than anything... it took a great deal to stir his passions, but when they awoke in him, he was a force to be reckoned with. Olympus is starting to feel like a home again, but while two of his brothers are basking in the glow of fatherhood, Hades has done nothing but scowl. For centuries he has been content to convince himself that he doesn't need any of that noise and heartache. Escaping Olympus for Earth, he finds solace in the great libraries of Rome, but the oracle is not finished with the divine brothers, and Hades' piece of the heavenly puzzle is about to fall into place. Gideon Vogel is just a librarian, but even he notices that there's something different about the tall, brooding figure that stalks the dusty aisles of his ancient library. Aiden doesn't talk much, but there's something about him that Gideon can't seem to chase from his mind. He's not usually one to pursue, but he can't seem to help himself... and just this once, it might be worth it to find out what's happening behind those furious dark eyes.
