Elena For most people, Cal Anderson is a villain. Harbinger of death, guardian of souls, haunt of nightmares. Doctor Death. Hades incarnate. They say he stole me. Usurped my fiancé and filled the cracks in my heart with empty promises. Left his crimson fingerprints on my soul and tried to set me free. By themselves they are not wrong. Except that it was my choice is to stay. Cal To most, Elena Ricci is innocent. Goddess of spring, lover of poetry, angel of my nightmares. Baby Persephone in the flesh. They say I ruined her. Destroyed her virtue and devoured her soul like a juicy pomegranate. Invested my evil like this deep as I could and tried to free her. In themselves they are not wrong. Except that it was she who destroyed me.
