Apollo X Hermes Novels & Stories

King Midas had his ears transformed into donkey ears for not choosing Apollo as the winner of a contest against Pan and Apollo also cheated in a contest with the satyr Marsyas – then, for being his equal in talent, flayed the unfortunate soul alive. Appollo liked cows…but he liked music more. Although his sacred animals were the wolf, the raven, and the dolphin, Appollo was also known as the god of cowherds and kept (bright red) sacred cows, the finest cattle in the world. Hermes, however, once stole fifty of these cows as a joke; when Appollo found out, the only thing keeping him from killing the god of thieves on the spot was Hermes’ invention – a lyre. Appollo was so entranced that he exc

“Fallon, you should name her and raise her as your own. She will only know you as her mother and her birth mother will never see her again.” Fallon stared at the child of her mate and her enemy. This was a child of Apollo and Lucy’s love. This was their love child. She wouldn’t hold the child accountable, but she could never accept this child as her own. She didn’t want him. She didn't want this! “I, Alpha Princess Fallon Marie Vault reject you as my mate, Apollo Nix Ursa son of Zeus the God of War and Selene the Moon Goddess. May you never show your face in front of me again.”

I realize how ridiculous I was, and I shake my head, “Nothing’s wrong. Just, I’m sure. I want to be with you, Apollo. All the time… I don’t want to be away from you again.” “Okay, then you can come back with me whenever I leave.” I ask, “And when will that be?” Before he can answer, I hear the sound of footsteps running towards us and I hear 2 voices as they yell my name, “Lux! Lux!” My eyebrows furrow and their footsteps slow, and I can smell that it is Amber and Iris. Amber says, “Hey, you must be Lux’s mate.” I can hear Apollo’s smile in his voice as he says, “Yes, I’m Alpha Apollo of the Bloodlust Pack.”

Opposite them, two gods—Ares, the God of War, and Apollo, the God of the Sun—sat in contemplative silence, their expressions unreadable. The silence was broken by Hera, her voice sharp as a blade. "His curse grows stronger day by day, Luna," she said, using the name they reserved for Selene. Her golden crown caught the starlight as she leaned forward. "I thought you said he had found his mate. Why does the fire of destruction still burn within him?"

studied the symbols again. If this is a temple to Hermes, I need to remember what Andreas said. He is the messenger god, but also the god of merchants, commerce, eloquence,ferrying the dead, and he was also called the trickster god. Looking at all the symbols on the doors again, she took each of them one at a time. The door to the right had suns and swans. These were not symbols usually associated with Hermes, it was usually Apollo that was associated with them. Amaris glanced at the other two doors and decided that she was right and this door's symbols represented Apollo. She turned around and looked at the door to her left. It had peacocks and crowns. Now she was in the palace of

Hermes chuckled as he wrinkled his face in irritation, "If I'm a fucking bastard, I accept but you know what, you're the worst whore the moon goddess has ever created. I guess your hole is too wide and that's why Alex couldn't afford to marry you." Hermes said, turned on his feet, walked towards the door, opened it, and left. It wasn't a sure reason for her to cry but it seemed as though the last sentence Hermes made against her really hit her nerves. As Hermes left, Alex thought it was time to finish off from where he had started. Walking menacingly towards her, he kept his eyes on hers, making sure to trap her In a dangerous gaze battle. "I warned you to not lie to me. Care to give an expl

Hermes was silent but as he stood from the bed, his face was a mask of sadness, "We already know that I am as pathetic as you. I have never for once denied that. Yet, do you hold me at fault for the things that I do?" "Go away, Hermes." "No. You have stayed and accepted me. My flaws and my perfection. Has Leonidas ever done same?" "Shut up!" "Apollo saw a prophecy," He continued. "I cannot tell you what it foretells because I am not sure of it myself but all I know is that all the gods and goddesses are in hiding and being with an Aetos could cost you your life." Loukas scoffed. "You cannot decieve me with such and if everyone hides, why do you not hide?"

He added quietly. “I know we are thinking the same thing.” Hermes stood and looked at Apollo. “I want you to be happy, Apollo but now is not the right time. Your actions are letting the destroyer win.” Hermes shook his head disapprovingly before he left the island. Apollo did not leave his spot even when the sun had begun setting. He thought of what Hermes had said. His groans as his head hangs low with its sudden aching. Thinking hard and deep for so long had made him dizzy up to the point he just wanted to faint to escape from the endless loop of thoughts.

Alpha Jones murmured as Sophie took her position in front of him. "Thank you" she replied quietly. "Praise the Moon Goddess" the Mage began and walked to the front of the crowd passing the couple behind. The crowds roared softly. "We are gathered here today for the joining ceremony of our Alpha with his beautiful mate. Today is a day that most of us were expecting but we couldn't ask for" he paused and sighed. "Alpha Jones is always giving his all to us and the entire world, fighting against tyranny and with the help and guidance of the Moon Goddess, we have been triumphing always" he lauded him.

“Before today ends, this covenant takes root. Luna Leila will sit with me at council, vote alongside me, and represent our pack to all.” Elijah offered his shoulder. “A wise choice, Alpha.” Henry beamed gently. Leila reached for my hand with both of hers, eyes shining in the dawn’s light. I inhaled deeply, letting my old worry meet new resolve. “We move forward together.” I led them through the courtyard, deeper beneath the newly lit palisade. There embedded in stone, rose a new pillar bearing our new crest: a full moon flanked by three crescents and a single lupine figure. Leila’s portrait and name were carved in the stone.
