Some mistakes are worth defying the gods to fix.
Nicole Matios would rather be anywhere other than the tiny Greek island home to the Academy, an ultra-exclusive private school for the descendants of the gods.

Come on, barbarian, light my fire…
I was raised for battle. And as the first daughter of a warrior family, I’ve earned my reputation the hard way. Yet now I fight alongside uncivilized male Northland dragons who think a female is only good for breeding and waiting back home in the cave. But it’s the foolish and foolhardy who would try to stop me, Rhona the Fearless, from doing what I do best—destroying the enemies of my kind.
So the smartest thing wily barbarian Vigholf the Abhorrent can do for me is stay out of my way as we risk all on a deadly mission in enemy territory. I don’t care if he’s fascinated by me, even though he is as attractive as he is resourceful. He’s having far too much fun putting me in difficult situations and testing my sense of duty to the limit. And I’m going to enjoy challenging his insufferable confidence, outwitting his schemes, and making him surrender in the wildest ways… Views: 631

Figures Giselle would turn out to be the child of literal Chaos.
As a budding immortal who could mold into anything, staying in Cursed Academy doesn't bode well. She'll probably end up a goddess of disaster or tripping, according to her new boyfriend Ronin. But transferring to Olympian with Ronin means breaking an oath made by the gods on the River Styx--and the gods won't he happy. So long as Giselle bears Prometheus's mark, she stays at his school.
Worse, her arch nemesis Wendy's forming her own secret society to banish her to the Underworld. But fighting back means destroying Wendy with her uncontrollable powers, which will turn her into a dark goddess for sure.
Certain she'll get paired to fight Wendy during Combat Exams, there's just one way for Giselle to save herself: get Wendy expelled. And the only way to do that is to show Wendy's involved with the Lower Order, the terrorist cult who attacks the gods and wants to force Giselle into their ranks. That's hard when all Ronin wants is to keep her safe.
Can Giselle risk her friendships, her future, and possibly even Ronin's heart?
