Hybris was named for the greek goddess of rebellion and insolence; as such, when she graduates high school, she leaves as a highly intelligent reject with a scholarship to an ivy league college and the disapproval of her parents and spoiled younger sister. The story begins with her graduation day, when she bids goodbye to everything she knows in favor of the harsh, adult world that awaits her beyond the prison she's been at for so long. 

The only problem is this creepy house in the woods that she stumbles across when she leaves graduation early, diploma secured and her worries expounding. When the darkness settles in and she has no choice but to stay there to weather out the night, she wonders what might be lurking in the house: the nothingness of a century passed or something else...?

For centuries Persephone lived in the Underworld with Hades. She finally escaped but it caused the displacement of Greek Gods and Goddesses to Earth with no memory of their true identities. After much debate, modern day college junior, Alba Sommer, decides to join a sorority at Olympus University in IL. At first it seems Alba is being unfairly hazed. If she wants to make Kappa Zeta, she has to do whatever KZ president, Miranda Belle, tells her to. But the further Alba progresses into rushing, it becomes evident that a lot more is going on. Alba's true identity of Psyche, goddess of the soul, has ancient history with Miranda's true identity of Aphrodite. The displaced Gods begin to play out their ancient pasts as history repeats itself. Caught up in century old love triangles and disagreements, the displaced are clueless that Hades and his minions are fast on the trail to finding them in his search to recapture his beloved Persephone. Knowing these Gods are vulnerable not knowing their true identities, Hades realizes he could steal their souls to the Underworld and wage a battle with Zeus for dominion over Earth. If the displaced don't discover their true identities, they will be helpless. ******************************************* For those that don't know --- on Wattpad votes mean a lot!

[COMPLETED - ONLY MINORLY EDITED] ******************************************************** Greek myths - true or false? They should be false, and to 16-year-old Sophie Claire, it's never crossed her mind that they aren't. Until one day in History class when her teacher spends a day on Greek mythology and something strange starts happening - her friends and classmates begin to tell myths about certain Greek deities with frightening precision. And for some reason, she's began to feel a certain affinity for Persephone, the Greek maiden who was kidnapped by Hades, the Lord of the Underworld, and forced into a marriage with him. This isn't some coincidence or freak dream, she later finds out from a host of strange individuals who claim they're from Olympus, the grandoise home of the gods themselves. She is actually a modern reincarnation of the goddess Persephone, and she's not the only one. A few of her classmates also happen to represent the gods and goddesses from popular Greek myths, and the fact that all of them are present means that something monumental is about to happen. Something like being the girl to change Persephone's future, to break the cycle of kidnapper and victim - all by passing a trial. It won't be simple, she knows, and she's not quite that eager to take it up, but from the moment she found out that she was Persephone, there was no way to back out. She should've known, however, that dealing with all powerful, immortal deities wasn't going to be easy. They've got a few secrets and personality flaws up their sleeves, and they could be deadly. More than deadly - murderous.
