χεῖμα
A cozy winter get-away to a cabin in the middle of the woods with the main cast of the Call Me Icarus series.
In a different life, a different world, Icarus is invited for a winter holiday to Achilles' family cabin.
What ensues is a cozy tale of mischief and shenanigans as Icarus and company get snowed in and learn to love despite the annoyances and grievances that surround them.
Χεῖμα is a non-canonical short story set in what would ostensibly be our modern world with the main cast of Δάιος. This short story does not require you to read Δάιος, but it does assume familiarity with the characters.

χεῖμα is the perfect novella to get you in a cozy wintery mood!
In this short story Icarus, Apollon and all their friends have gathered together in a cabin for a winter break, however when a storm blows in they become trapped for several days up in the mountains and with Icarus and Apollon forced to share a bed old feelings begin to resurface.
This novella follows all our favourite characters from Call Me Icarus although as a completely stand alone story set in a different time from the main story you could also read it without having read Δάιος (although I recall that you do!)
This book was full of my favourite tropes (there's only one bed and mutual pining my beloved!!) and reading Icarus and Apollon dance around each other like idiots was so painful and hilarious, particularly when it includes all of their friends watching on!
This novella is available with both Bell Pepper (no spice) and Chilli Pepper (spicy scene) so no matter what your taste is there's an option for you!

A cute story about Icarus' found family enjoying a get-away in a cozy hut.
Made me hate Apollon a little less too.
