Arethusa Myth Novels & Stories

Something, anything. Goddess Athelia; a red goddess of werewolves, said to be an archaic symbol of power. Her kind had supposedly disappeared millennia ago after her death—once a powerful warewolf, she was betrayed by a lover, stabbed and thrown into the sea. Or, in other versions, by an entire pack, and cast away. In her last breath, she set a curse over herself to come back in a new vessel, and she vowed to give a holy curse to those who had betrayed her.

Beauden kisses both breasts "My mate sure loves seducing me, and I love it." Poseidon, Perseus, Erebus, Nyx, and Athena are on Mytikas the highest mountain on Mount Olympus.

Jonas said, mumbling the last three words and he bowed his head and took Selene's hand. Rujin, Me and Irene are the only ones left in between of the 30 hoplites, then in the middle of the hallway, Aphrodite appeared and she took Ivana with her, now, I am only with Rujin who's walking with slouched shoulders. "Wait." She stopped walking while looking at her side where a girl with narrow eyes and if I'm not mistaken, she's Yej, daughter of Hephaestus, the 20 hoplites that were left for us also stopped and so did I. "Yej.."

She reaches for my hands and gently pulls them into her lap. “I am saying that yes, Zeus and you are forbidden because of something his ancestor, Seleste Athens, caused. She altered the course of history. She made your kind suffer while humans basked in glory.” She pauses, watching me. I hadn't even remembered that Zeus was a descendant of Seleste Athens. The woman who had started all this a thousand years ago. The wife of Cross Athens. The man who had been the best friend of my own ancestor, Scar Denvers. A hybrid.

They stared at me with cold, hidden fury, but it only made her more beautiful. I had always been attracted to Athena, but why hadn’t I made her my Luna, and treated her specially? Why didn’t I see the load of goodness I had been given? The moon goddess had given me a mate she knew would be perfect for me, but I had pursued another. Athena was perfect in every way. Now that she could see, her beauty was irresistible. She looked a little bustier, and I hated to think that she could have given birth because two years had passed, and some months had followed too. It was enough time for her to give birth, and be the mother of a charming toddler.

Her expression hardened, the soft awe replaced by a look as sharp as chipped flint. "And why is a human traveling with you?" The question was an accusation, laced with a sneer that made me flinch. Cassius’s brow furrowed, a flicker of displeasure crossing his features at her open hostility. She trades with humans but despises them? The hypocrisy left a bitter taste in my mouth. "She is not merely a human," Cassius corrected, his tone firm, leaving no room for argument. "This is Thalia. She is the daughter of Syanna."

The meek, quiet woman who had withered in the Temple of Light was gone forever. "You are beautiful, Lyra," Hades said, appearing behind me. His eyes were full of awe. He took my hand and pressed a kiss to my fingertips. "Today, all the realms will witness you become my one and only, to share my throne and my eternity." When Hades and I walked side-by-side into the grand hall, the gods of Olympus were already assembled. Their faces were a mixture of astonishment and a complex, veiled discomfort. After all, just a few months ago, I had been Apollo's betrothed.

She replied vaguely. Her mouth was gaped, hands shaking slightly, failing to fathom what happened and I was not sure how to break that to her. I never wanted her to know what I prayed for her. “Athena, she is the Goddess of this land, Azure Silvia.” I told her calmly, coming closer to hold her and helped her soothe down but she didn’t let me. “What is happening? Are we going to become one? Without you apologizing for what you did too? How?” She whispered desperately, losing her breaths as her lips trembled.

Just thinking about her made my heart race and my cheeks heat up. - "I completely understand how you might feel about her. This young girl, soon to be young woman is simply incredible. One could almost say she is perfect, but perfection does not exist. Thetia is a person blessed by the gods. Her intelligence rivals that of great scholars, teachers and preceptors.

Her soul pieces turned into starlight and would never return. Hearing this, Hecate went completely insane. "Kressa! My daughter!" She screamed Kressa's name and jumped into the freezing River Styx.
