Summary
"Where are my eight-pack abs? I always have eight-pack abs. I never have love handles. Never in four thousand years!"
Meg made another snorting laugh. "Sheesh, crybaby, you're fine."
"I'm fat!"
"You're average. Average people don't have eight-pack abs. C'mon."
I wanted to protest that I was not average nor a person, but with growing despair, I realized the term now fit me perfectly.
In which Apollo doesn't resign himself to this fact and decides that he won't let being average or a person stop him from gaining back a little bit of perfection.

Summary
Those strong hands do not wrap around his throat, but that would’ve been the better option compared to what happens next.
“Perhaps I’ll keep you as my slave rather than kill you.” Commodus smiles down at him. In close proximity, Apollo can smell him. Cardamon and cinnamon; warm and comforting, like coming back home to a lover by the heath. “Do you remember what they did to slaves so long ago, Lester?”
Chapter 39 goes awry when Commodus gets the upper hand.

Summary
“Commodus blames me for his death,” I said.
“Why?” Meg asked.
“Probably because I killed him.”
“Ah.” Leo nodded sagely. “That would do it.”
The Dark Prophecy, Page 134.OR
In a miraculous error of the universe, the glowing boy turns–past the gathered crowd and all past that lavish courtyard, his arrow of a gaze flying straight and true to pierce perfectly Apollo’s. And then it is blue on gold, impossible, incredulous, and Apollo finds that he wishes not to look away or for this stolen moment to end.
In the heart of Rome, there is a mortal, and he is golden.
(Five scenes between Commodus and Apollo.)

Summary
Commodus had shoved Apollo’s knees down roughly and climbed into the bath to sit on his thighs, completely preventing any struggle. One of his hands pressed into his ex-lover’s windpipe while the other smothered his nose and mouth. The freezing bathwater flooded over the edges of the bath like tidal waves from his movement.
Their position was intimate; Apollo had been under him before, but not in this way, and Commodus’s icy hatred was just as tender and passionate as his burning love.
OR: Revenge is a dish best served so cold that you get hypothermia after your ex-lover tries to drown you.

Summary
“Where have you been?”
“I was—“
“Answer me!”
“I can’t!” I admitted. Sure, it was partially because he kept cutting me off, but equally because I didn’t know what he was talking about.
The stranger wiped his face, now holding anger along with despair.
“You’d better try! I—“ He heaved another breath before steadying his voice. “We held a goddamn memorial for you, Lester.”Or, Apollo and Meg encounter a friend of Lester Papadopoulos.

Summary
“Leave me alone, Apollo.” Meg mumbled, kicking her legs precariously on the windowsill. The lights of Indianapolis blinked below her, the roar of cars creating a numbing blanket that allowed her to sit and stare into the yellowing dark without falling too deep or hard into her emotions.
She didn’t have to turn back into the room to know that he hadn’t left, but she did so anyway. Apollo hovered in the doorway. For a sun god, he seemed fairly content to lurk in the shadows.

Summary
It took Apollo a moment to realise what it was between the stabbing, sparks of pain that set his entire body alight in familiar agony. Something he’d only briefly glanced at, something that should have been kept in the shadowed corner of the enclosure, something that should have never been used on any of the furiously anxious animals locked behind the glass let alone be in sight of them - a cattle prod
