The sun god Apollo, radiant with golden hair and piercing blue eyes, harbored a secret, burning passion for the mischievous Hermes. Meanwhile, mortal Prince Crocus, handsome and devoted, found his heart melting at the mere sight of the trickster god. Their bond was deep, yet fragile; Hermes, protective and flirtatious, worried constantly for Crocus's safety. But fate, cruel as ever, loomed like a discus in the air. As Crocus gazed at his phone, Hermes’s text lit up the screen, a sweet distraction from the looming tragedy that would soon claim the Spartan prince, all while Apollo watched from afar, his love unrequited and hidden behind a mask of divine ego.
