   Summary

   Achilles is being forced into a marriage with someone other than his true love and he is quite miffed by that.

   Deidamia has traveled from away from her home only to be met with an alpha who doesn’t want her and an incredibly charming omega.

   Patroclus is spending his days just trying to keep the peace.

   Unfortunately tensions rise regardless as after a rather eventful celebration, and Patroclus is having a much harder time keeping the peace locked in a trojan room.
