Hades’ Little Warrior Takes on the Mafia

The Story

Lucian abandons his post guarding the Underworld Gates to protect his daughter Mila in the mortal city of Vesper. He rescues Valerie, the Ashford heir, from hunters seeking to force an arranged marriage upon her. Their survival depends on a contract marriage that binds them together against Adrian Hawthorne. When Adrian’s family kidnaps Valerie and dispatches Underworld envoys, Mila uses her superhuman strength derived from the River Styx to shield her mother. Lucian silently erases the memories of these violent encounters. Mila also hacks an enemy listening device to expose cousin Gavin’s plot to forge drug evidence and frame Valerie. At the family council, the father and daughter shatter the scheme. Adrian arrives with gunmen to seize the docks just as Charon sends Ronan into the mortal world. Threats from the Underworld and the mob converge on their fragile peace.
