Five distinct realms are where the story takes place. The first is Elysian Plain, where Theo, the creator, created Lilith and Adam and placed them to rule and enjoy life. Lilith, who was created from the dust of the earth with Adam as her spouse, is the first woman that we see. Since they were in the spirit realm, where day and night did not exist, their age is unknown. She claimed equality with Adam in Authority since she was a feminist and was made with him from the dust of the earth. As a result, she defied the will of her creator and refused to surrender to Adam, the monarch of the Elysian Plain, who was in charge of all that Theo, his creator, had made. Then she left him with everything he owned, including his freedom, supremacy, and wealth. She made the decision to move out of her comfort zone, which was on the Elysian Plain in Theo's bosom.Theo, who is also God, lives in the second dimension, Nirvana, with his angels, led by Phosphorous, the angels' guardian.Lilith's boldness in starting a quarrel and seeking her own kingdom inspired Nirvana's angels. As a result, they rose up in rebellion against Theo, led by Phosphorous, and demanded to be exalted above him; however, Theo banished them instead. After being banished, they met Lilith as lost vagrants on the road. Lilith saw Phosphorous as a sycophant, and she found his obedient appearance fascinating. She joined him in a league and meandered across Midgard's third realm. But Phosphorous and his fallen angels found themselves imprisoned in the fourth circle of hell; he turned into the devil and his angels into the demons. Adam looked to be in mourning, begging Lilith to come back. Along with his pledge to fulfill her every wish, Theo also made Eva his new wife in lieu of Lilith after Lilith left him. After the rupture with the fallen angels, Lilith recalls her home. The woman made the decision to go back to the Elysian plan and act like an obedient wife who is prepared to give in to Adam. She greeted him as his second wife and tricked Eva into eating the cursed fruit. She also persuaded Adam to consume the fruit of wisdom. After being exiled from the region of immortality, Elysian Plain, they arrived in Midgard, the domain of mortality, and underwent a variety of hardships.Lilith was still the nomadic vagrant she had been, and she was still apart from her spouse. He would only see her as a vision or in a night dream.Adam and Eva relished their loving relationship while accepting their living conditions in Midgard. Envious, Lilith started to feel jealous of Adam and Eva, the humans. She gave Adam a wet dream, which made him lose interest in having sex with his wife. Michael was dispatched by Theo to mediate Eva and Lilith's revolt concerning their husband, Adam. He married Lilith and had her become pregnant. Gigantic beings that she gave birth to eventually evolved into gods and goddesses that labored to support Adam and Eva's offspring.Lilith ceased to plague Adam with moist dreams as a result of Michael's marriage to her. Being an intrepid nomad, she insisted on having her own realm, thus Theo established Abraham's Bosom. This world belonged to Lilith and her offspring, the gods and goddesses, who settled there. After battling for it, Lilith was able to become a mother and rule over her offspring in her own realm that Theo made for her. After his return, Michael served in front of Theo at Nirvana.

Gemma swept her eyes once again over the empty street. She wasn't sure how long she'd been standing there but it had certainly been a while. What kind of irresponsible man kept his bride waiting at the court house on the day they were supposed to marry?"He's still not here, Miss?" Gemma tried to ignore the pitying tone of the justice of the peace. Of course, he must think all kind of things about her already. "I truly don't know if he will show up," she finally admitted sadly, looking at the floor in shame."Oh, I know Tuck. He must be busy with something to miss such an important day as this." Gemma could tell that he was genuine when he spoke of Tuck but she could also spot a bit of worry in his face. Maybe they had never met before, but they'd agreed to be married. Surely that must mean something to Tuck. It had to her. She fumbled with her sun bonnet. It was nearing dusk now and Gemma began to wonder where she would spend the night.

She stared off into the street, hoping Tuck would appear soon. Her mind wandered to the past. How different she had imagined things would be. It had seemed almost a game....Then, he finally showed up.And he wasn't what she expected him to be.

Tate knows he can make a difference if only his teammates would let him. Something has to change for him to earn their respect, but falling for the captain might not be his best move. Vladislav Novikov has been called many things over his long and illustrious career, but the new nickname of Iceberg seems to fit best. Perhaps it's due to his icy blue eyes, or the way he rams into opposing players as he defends his goalie. Or maybe it's because of his cool demeanor when not playing the game he loves.

Despite knowing better than to start something with a teammate, the big, bad Iceberg is about to have that chilly veneer around his heart melted away by Tate one sweet kiss at a time.
