Warning: The following discussion will spoil the ending of the story if you haven't already read it. I recommend that you look for it in my profile, read it, and then return. It's a fairly short story, so it'll take you about 10 minutes.
Beyond this point there will be spoilers...
Read the story yet? Good, let's begin...
Assuming there's sufficient demand for the continuation, the main question is "where to go from here?" I'd have to take the following into consideration:
1) The story ends with our female protagonist fast asleep in Erebus's arms after sex, and very likely pregnant with his child.
2) As of the end of the story, she's currently in his "personal sanctum," an extra-dimensional space that he fully controls and which she can't leave unless she somehow convinces him to let her go.
3) If she does return to our dimension and goes home, naturally here family, friends, and possibly the authorities (depending on how long she's been gone) will be asking her where she's been since she disappeared from the music festival; and if she tells her folks she got knocked up by the god of darkness, she'll probably have to listen to them argue over whether to call an exorcist or have her institutionalized.
4) If she chooses to stay with Erebus, how well would she likely be able to adjust to living in that dark place he calls home? Would she be likely to have any further interactions with the cultists that worship him? If his wife, Nyx, is still around after all these centuries, would she be up for a good ménage or would she be the jealous type?
