Summary

This is a fictional story about a Greek god I made up named Aneres. It's not my best work because my writing style is romance and I write from first person, but I just want to take a chance and see what others think about it. I also tried to use some old-fashioned words like beseech, to make it sound older. All constructive critiscism is welcome.
