Hestia impersonates her sister to marry Hades and recover a stolen heirloom.
Hestia steps into a marriage pact with Hades, Lord of the Underworld, wearing her cruel sister's face to steal back the maternal relic. Years of devotion to Ares, the God of War, yielded only scar after scar. When remorse finally drags the war god to her threshold, he finds the door already shut; she has severed the old bond and built a steady, contented life beside her new husband.
