The Child of Calamity Series

Sometimes, some secrets are better left unknown. From the moment Artemis brought news of the Child of Calamity to his attention, Apollo’s life has never been the same. Though he’s not exactly sure if Callidora Spiros is truly what his sister says she is, he’s willing to give the girl the benefit of a doubt. After all, the young woman is beautiful, and draws him in like a moth to a flame. Though Zeus rules Mount Olympus with an iron thumb, Apollo knows that his father’s reign may some day come to a close. The events his sister set into motion threaten the very fabric of the world they live in. His sister has decreed that her every wish be fulfilled, and she’ll do everything possible to make sure things go her way. Life soon takes a different turn as further secrets come to light. His sister will not be deterred from the task at hand. Apollo soon realizes that the prophecy may come to pass no matter what he or anyone else does to stop it. Nevertheless, he’ll do everything possible to thwart his sister’s every goal.

The truth is sometimes hard to bear. From the moment news of The Child Of Calamity arrived on her doorstep, Leto knew things would never stay the same. Never once did she imagine that her precious daughter would use Zeus’ sacred prophecy to achieve an end to her own means. Deep inside, she’s always believed that goodness lay in Artemis’ heart. That her daughter would use her powers for the better. Leto knows that nothing good will come out of her daughter’s sordid machinations. Though she doesn’t quite understand what drives her, she knows she cannot allow Artemis to do as she pleases. Order must be maintained. She cannot risk Zeus’ wrath yet again should her daughter continue on the path she currently treads. Delving deeper into the secrets surrounding the prophecy, Leto is determined in understanding why Artemis is so hell-bent on changing life as they know it. Someone out there knows exactly what’s going on. Somehow, some way, she’s going to try to put a stop to Artemis’ plans. To do that, however, she’ll have to go back to the beginning, much to Zeus’ chagrin.

Her wish is their command. Artemis has a plan. Her eye has fallen on the throne of Olympus, and she’ll do anything to get it. She knows Zeus won’t give it up so easily, but she’s determined to dethrone him, none-the-less. Her father is known for his infamous romps amongst the mortals. Surely, there must be something she can use against him? When her attention is drawn to Callidora Spiros, she soon realizes that her father does indeed have secrets. Brazen and beautiful, the girl piques her interest in more ways than one, though Artemis isn’t quite sure as to how she’s truly tied to the gods. Intent on discovering what her father has kept hidden for so long, she’ll need as much help as she can get. Demanding and willful, Artemis has been known to achieve her every whim. With the bat of an eyelash, or a simple word, she’s wrapped many a man around her little finger. The gods, on the other hand, aren’t so easy to bring around. Never-the-less, she’s going to do everything possible to gain the upper hand. Mount Olympus will be hers, with or without the help of the other gods and goddesses.

Sometimes, the past is better left buried. Upon learning of Artemis’ intentions, Hades has vowed to thwart her every plan. He’s not sure as to why she’s set her sights on the beautiful Callidora Spiros, but he refuses to allow her the upper hand. The gods are treacherous and deceitful, more so when they want something. Well aware of the prophecy concerning the Child of Calamity, he knows it’s one Artemis seeks to use to her advantage. Determined to keep the secrets of the past dormant, he’ll do everything possible to keep things under wraps. Though he’s loath to admit it, he knows that very prophecy can change the world as he knows it. The lines of battle have been drawn. For his family, he’ll do whatever is necessary to keep them safe. There is a reason he’s known as the cold and callous Lord of the Underworld, a fact he makes known whenever possible. He’s come too far to allow the other gods and goddesses to rip apart what he’s painstakingly gone to great lengths to protect. Come what may, he will hold fast to that which he loves the most. No one is going to take them from him. Not even Artemis and Zeus’ wretched prophecy.
