All characters appearing in the Daughter of the Moon books belong to Lynne Ewing and I am just borrowing them because they are excellent characters.

Long ago Zeus lived atop Mount Olympus with all of the Gods and Goddesses. But when his wife, Hera wasn't watching he would steal down to earth and seduce young woman. Hera would then smite them when she found out. But one day when Hera was distracted and could not watch Zeus, he looked down at the Earth and saw Europa. Europa was a young woman who was a beauty among beauties. Her and her friends were in a field picking the loveliest of flowers happily. Zeus fell instantly in love with her, so he took the shape of a bull. But the bull was not the common type, but a very handsome one. They all took to him and thought him kindly, and when the bull showed them his back they eagerly agreed to ride. Europa was the first to get on and before the others could get on he took off towards the sea. Instead of going in he ran on top and rode the waves to the island of Crete were Hera could not see Europa. There he kept Europa for eternity. She bore his sons and Zeus took pity on them and instead of keeping them on Crete he gave them to the rest of the world to help the daughters of Selene. The are known as The Sons of Zeus.
