Greek Mythology Love Stories Novels & Stories

Aphrodite and Cupid initiated the love between Jason (hero of the Quest of the Golden Fleece) and the daughter of the Colchian King. Hera is the Queen of the GODS and is the wife and sister of ZEUS in the Olympian pantheon. She is known for being the Goddess of Marriage & Birth. Despite being the Goddess of Marriage, she was known to be jealous and vengeful towards the many lovers and offspring of her husband Zeus. She was also known to turn her anger towards mortals who crossed her as well – for example, Paris, who chose APHRODITE over Hera as the most beautiful goddess at the marriage of the sea-nymph Thetis to a mortal called Peleus.

Master made sure I was well versed in literature, poetry, music, arts and dance. Master kept me indoors until I was thirteen years old, before he began hosting concerts and big dinner parties where he charged royals and demanded gold coins and expensive jewellery for them to catch a glimpse of me. I was not allowed to converse with any person and to be honest, I do not believe that I can because when I enter a place, everyone hushes and mumbles my name of Aphrodite. That is the name my master has given me, Aphrodite. One of my teacher's told me about Aphrodite and how she was the Greek Goddess of love and beauty. My teacher went on to tell me, I got the name Aphrodite because my beauty surpa

Easy to like. Easy to love. And now that I’ve accepted the bond, I can feel it in every part of me. Not just the mate pull—love. The kind that grows when you really see someone. He tells me stories—how he stole Aphrodite’s girdle once, of all things. “It was one of her biggest power objects. Made whoever wore it irresistible,” he says, shaking his head. “Seems reckless, putting that much power into lingerie,” I joke. Hermes snorts. “Right? So I took it. Just to see if I could.”

Her love wouldn't have returned in a snap. Her love life was not a New Romance chapter. We did not get over it as quickly as in our favorite readings. There was always something fairy about love, but she didn't know all the tricks. Those which would make it possible to make her date return on their beautiful white horse, ready with a marriage proposal, with a flower between to the teeth. So she wondered how her heroines, with their heavily wounded hearts, managed to heal their disappointments. Judith loved her female readings. The books, placed on her nightstand, piled up a bit more night after night. She read a few chapters, tried in vain to guess the rest. She imagined feelings to the voic

Selena wrapped her arm around him and rested her head on his shoulder. "Okay, tell us why my mate needs a guardian," Zaiden said, kissing Selena's forehead. Andrew looked at Selena so she could read his lips while he spoke. "I'm not from this realm. I was sent here from the one where gods and goddesses rule. Eros is the God of love and protection. He fell in love with Psyche, the Goddess of the Soul. They went to his home, hoping to live peacefully, but that's not what happened. Psyche's sisters became extremely jealous of their relationship and began plotting ways to drive them apart. When Psyche became pregnant, they devised a plan and gave her an ultimatum. They would let her and her fami

He gave me a soft smile, making me return a shy smile. “You know, in Greek mythology, Althaia was the Queen of Calydon, and a woman of fierce passion. She is celebrated in an ancient story about the fate of her son, Meleager. When he was born, the Moirai, or the Fates in English, came to foretell his future, and they predicted he would die as soon as one of the sticks in the fireplace burned out completely. When Althaia heard that, she pulled the stick from the fire, put the fire out, and hid it in a safe place.”

“Alright, so who is the god of love? That’s who I want to thank for Katie and Kara coming into my life, and I guess your Moon Goddess lady, too.” “Let me think. It’s been a couple of years since I studied Greek history.” Zara taps her finger on her lip, trying to recall the information. “Eros. Romans call him Cupid.” “Shut up, Zara.” Jasper says in a flat tone. His face darkens as he turns his attention fully to her. Zara sits up taller at his rare change in mood. “Jas, what the fuck?” I growl at him.

I'm invested at what Tristen's talking about. "Aphronus comes from the goddess of love and beauty. Aphrodite, which is the goddess of sexual love and beauty in Greek mythology. Venus, also the goddess of love and beauty but in Roman mythology. Hope you get it. My grandmother combined the name of the same goddess in different version. " Tristen just shrugged then Jairus and Hendrix just nodded. "Your grandma is lit," Hendrix said in amazement. "How about the miracle thingy? Is that legit?" Jairus asked.

When I started reading them, practically giving up on it and dressing up as a ghost (with a sheet on my face) - I was surprised. What was annoying and frustrating in mortal tales, was magnificent in the ancient tales of gods and higher beings. The love of Kali and Shiva, where the sight of her love at her feet made her awaken from her madness; the way even death bowed to love - Persephone and Hades; the tragic end of Apollo who seemed cursed by love, having to lose those whom she loved again and again. Those were stories worth reading, but among all those, there were many others.

She continued, "The story goes that once, Apollo, the sun god, and Zephyr, the deity of the west wind, compete for the love. Then, at one point, Apollo is teaching Hyakinthos how to throw the discus, when Zephyr becomes enraged and blasts a gust of wind in Apollo's direction, causing the discus to hurl back in the direction of Hyakinthos, striking and killing him. Apollo, brokenhearted, finds a flower springing up from the spilled blood and calls it hyacinth in honor of the lover." "That's a sad one." "Perhaps, but not stories are meant to be happy." Luna smiled at me and continued, "But I hope yours will be." Just as she said that, I found Tristan already here in front of the flower shop al
