The Divine Courtesan [BL]
When news of a powerful deity sleeping with a male courtesan from the House of Himeros started spreading around the nation of Elysia, the people were flabbergasted. Especially since this particularly powerful being was known to not mingle in human affairs. The news reached neighboring civilizations, intriguing every person capable of breathing with the identity of this heavenly seducer.
Powerful men from all over the world—dukes, kings, businessmen, and even immortal beings—were eager for a taste, expecting to encounter the top, most sought-after courtesan in the city. However, contrary to all expectations, Faine was merely an ordinary man and a rather new addition to the House of Himeros.
"He does not look that special," one of his fellow courtesans mused, his voice barely a whisper.
"He looks cheap, if you ask me, just a quick bed warmer for when your wife's being a nagging hag," replied a client, a mere civilian, fanning her face with interest.
"And yet that god keeps returning for his services. Perhaps he is skilled with his mouth?"
Faine only smiled as he strode gracefully through the building's halls, amused by everyone's jealousy-fueled impressions of him. Unbeknownst to them, his beloved God was merely a pawn in his calculated schemes.
When one decides rather carelessly to take a dip into a beguiling, seemingly harmless spring, how long does it take for them to apprehend the dangers that lie beneath?
