Apparently, his prophetic dreams say I'll help him become king.

With his aid we stand the smallest chance, the slimmest of hopes.

When he abducts me, I try to say he's got the wrong girl--I'm no goddess. At least, I don't think so. Suddenly, I'm in his world, captive. The upside? I live in a castle with a lethally beautiful god who wants to make me a queen. The downside? He's scary AF and also wants me to help him destroy the world.

Ich stecke in der Hölle fest, der echten Hölle. Fast alles und jeder hier versuchen mich umzubringen. Sogar der Gott, der behauptet, er habe mich einst geliebt, hätte mir fast das Leben genommen.

But even with all the trimmings, I know better than to think everything will run smoothly. I've promised an invitation to Fate and it's never a good idea to keep such a powerful being waiting, but my festive frenzy keeps getting interrupted. Removing curses and humoring carolers are the last things I should be doing when I've also just learned that I have to make room at the Yule Dinner table.
