From Coward To Goddess Novels & Stories

“Release my child.” The creature laughed—A sharp, brittle sound that did not fit Aria’s voice. “You abandoned her. I claimed her. She is mine.” The moonlight brightened until it hummed. Kael felt it in his ribs. Auren felt it in the remnants of his wings. The Goddess’s face hardened. “Then you have made your final mistake.” The ground cracked beneath her as power erupted outward— silver against white, ancient against ancient, goddess against god. The creature snarled and lifted Aria’s stolen arm—

"You know the risks. The consequences. The ban on deities entering the mortal realm..." The Moon Goddess regards me with a serene expression, her eyes reflecting the wisdom of countless ages. "I understand your worry, Natalie," she says softly, her voice carrying a weight that seems to echo through the very air of the room. "But I am tired of hiding. Of paying for my mistakes! I have been paying for eons and I am tired. I made one mistake, it is time to stop hiding now.”

She stood behind them, holding her hand on the dagger. Left alone, Deja threw off her cloak, looking at the statue. Slowly she knelt down so that her hooded face was higher than her head. "Goddess," Deya said softly. She fell silent. She had no idea if the alien deity would hear her. Few of the Anmar worshiped the moon goddess. Though she had a temple in Taaldor, almost no one visited it. Deya has never been there, and even more so she never prayed to this goddess. But she was the patroness of werewolves, and they took her seriously.

I concentrated on my body and slowly, my ethereal glow dimmed and I took on a human form. Then I focused on my dress and then I was wearing a tight red T-shirt and black jeans. I frowned and focused on my T-shirt again. Slowly, the words 'I am a Goddess!' appeared on the T-shirt. Just for the irony because I was all but announcing myself as a Goddess and I knew that not even a single soul will believe me… I was ready to be a human for the day!

’ He asked incredulously, and the other two men nodded their eyes wide with shock at what they had just witnessed, ‘Killian, my Prince, she blessed you.’ Kobain whispered in awe, going down on one knee, quickly followed by his brother, ‘You, you, and the hybrid. She, she, oh my goodness, Killian Tegan has the Goddess on her side.’ Cerebus said, and they looked up at the sound of shuffling from his men. One by one, they went down on one knee and held their fists over their hearts, beating them against their armour as they chanted,

He let it happen. They planned to keep her alive just long enough to take what they needed. Then they would end her. But one girl, a servant no one noticed, chose to help her. Maybe she was young. Maybe she was afraid. Maybe she saw a mother in pain and couldn’t bear it. No one remembers her name. But that girl unlocked the door, whispered that the guards were asleep, and told the goddess to run. And she did.

the leader scoffed, clearly unconvinced. At the mention of the War Goddess, Hilary's eyes lit up instantly. "Grandpa, is she really that beautiful?" She couldn't quite imagine it. The legendary female war god of the empire-she had to be tall, powerful, commanding. Even if her features were decent, she couldn't possibly be more beautiful than Scarlett, right? "Of course she is. Why would I introduce her to your cousin otherwise?" the leader said confidently. Hilary pouted. She didn't believe it at all.

And so, the demons moved among them unnoticed, overlooked, waiting. This time would be different. This time the goddess, reborn into frail human flesh, would not defeat him. She could not. The years had leeched her strength; her mortal vessel would betray her. Her love for this realm, her endless empathy, her soft femininity—those were her fatal flaws. In the old age she had barely been worth his notice, a mistake he would not repeat. Now he was ready. This time, he would crush her. Danny arrived at Mahisar’s home, his smile wide with secret victory.

And just like in my dream, I also didn't feel that my body is being burned when I entered the cage even though the bars seemed to be burning. "The sacred cage of my teacher! You have entered the sacred cage without being burned. You are the reincarnation of my teacher! You are also our goddess!" Old Remi exclaimed as her eyes widened while looking at me. I didn't pay attention to what she said because I saw that the monster was going to attack me again.

I had been engrossed in my task, knowing that I needed to memorize all the laws and recite the entire volume by the end of the week. "What do you mean?" After reading the book for over three hours without a break, my neck felt stiff and strained, prompting me to gently massage it for relief. I held my breath as Thaddeus leaned against the desk, emanating an aura of grandeur and authority. This made me feel ticklish in between my legs, but I ignored it and focused on the question he uttered earlier. Thaddeus combed his striking blonde hair. "You know... being a deity. You said that you are the Goddess of Gallant and Retribution. How does it work?"
