Twisted Mythology, Vol. 2 Ashleigh Matthews

Theseus has dreams of a woman he knows is real, though he cannot remember her name. Once he learns her name, he will do everything he can to win her hand, even if it means going to Olympus itself. Adonis lives a content life, under the watchful eye of his mistress, the goddess Persephone. But all that changes when the beautiful Aphrodite comes to retrieve him. The goddess of beauty is a stunning image of perfection he would give anything to remain with for the rest of his days... Ampelos is a satyr remembered as the beloved companion of the god Dionysus. Although the adventures that consume their days are glorious, a part of him does miss roaming the world alongside his fellow satyrs. Dionysus has always been hidden from the world, to keep him out of Hera's notice. He knows that he cannot hide from her forever. It is just a matter of time before the goddess finds him and sends him into madness. He would love nothing more than to spend a few days with his beloved Ariadne, a mortal princess he sees regularly in his dreams and visions. Here are four tales of Greek Mythology, told with a twist on the originals.
