Summary
Percy Jackson is done.
Done with quests. Done with prophecies. Done with gods who treat survival like a favour and freedom like a luxury.
So he runs.
Gotham City is far enough from Olympus that even the gods hesitate to look too closely and strange enough that Percy can almost convince himself he’s just another student trying to get a degree and stay out of trouble.
It doesn’t help that he can’t really smell properly anymore. Tartarus made sure of that. Instincts come in broken pieces now, like someone handed him a map with half the ink missing and expected him to navigate anyway.
Which makes Gotham extremely confusing.
Because people keep… doing things.
Standing too close. Touching his shoulder. Leaving jackets. Looking at him like he belongs somewhere near them.
And occasionally - very occasionally - someone tries to scent-mark him.
With ascension looming over his shoulder, three very confusing alphas, and one cute clone that he knows he shouldn’t feel anything for, Percy’s plans to stay out of trouble start falling apart around him.
Percy came to Gotham to disappear.
Gotham has other plans for him.Series
