A mysterious rider appears and saves Juliet from certain death, cutting down the evil-doers, she asks the gentleman's name and is amazed when he knows who she is and of which noble house she is a member of. In her mind this knowledge could prove troublesome, yet the mystery of who he is still sticks in her mind.
The Capulets plot to rise once again in secret, and as they have saved some of the other townspeople they tell them of the secret they have been keeping, that the one called Odin is none other than the Capulet's only surviving family member, their daughter Juliet.
The people tell of the Capulets cruelty and how they starved them when they rebelled, but they soon find out that it was the Montagues who spread this gossip around the town to divert attention from them selves.
Lady Hermione is interested in Romeo attending the fireworks party during the flower festival, but his heart is only for one woman – Juliet, though he has to go through great pains to get to her. Forbidden love never smelled so sweet, or become so dangerous for the two of them should they pursue it?
Fans of period dramas and romances will really enjoy this fresh look at a Shakespeare classic. Judging from the way the story is going they will not be able to wait for more to come soon as the plot of the Montague’s thickens behind the scenes.
