But Stelios's love won't be thwarted by the gods or anyone else. He promises to take her away from the island if she can only last until nightfall. Unfortunately, Rhea finds that she's not alone on the island when a fierce storm drives her into a dark cave, where she meets the legendary Cyclops... and his one-eyed monster.
Now Rhea must endure until Stelios comes to rescue her, and when the time comes for her escape, she'll be faced with an impossible choice.
