Percy Jackson and the Olympians AU. Features Thaluke and all the canon couples of the original series. ~ Luke Castellan's soul was bartered before he was even born. Hermes, in an attempt to save his dying lover's unborn child, was roped into a deal with the Titan Lord Kronos. The unborn child, being part of a prophecy, posed a threat to Kronos. Hermes, in an attempt to save his son, agreed to "give" the child to Kronos, so that with his mother dead, the Titan would raise him and groom him to do the opposite of what the prophecy foretold. Luke grows up without his real father ever in the picture, but with a master and adoptive father that manipulates and twists his mind, feeding him with bitter hatred for the gods that have never done anything for him. Upon his arrival at Camp Half-Blood years later, Luke is claimed as both Hermes and Kronos' son. However, this causes a problem in the deal- as Hermes was supposed to forfeit his position as the boy's father. Now, Kronos is rising and Luke is supposed to help. Will the Titan Lord's plan turn out as intended? Or will Luke choose his true father's side in the end?
