But hey, we’ve all made stupid decisions in our twenties. But in her case, there were consequences. Demigod-sized consequences. You’d think Zeus would be interested in getting to know his minotaur son.

She’s nothing like he expected—and that’s exactly why he can’t let himself get too close. Except, her baby needs milk. And there’s only one way to increase her supply…
