Before Oedipus, a mythical Greek king of Thebes, was burn the Oracle of Delphi told King Laius of Thebes that he'd have a child who's destined to kill him and sleep with Laius's wife, Jocasta, the boy's mother.
When the baby is born, the king leaves him in a moutainside to die; However, A shepherd finds the baby, though, and takes him to King Polybus and Queen Merope of Corinth, who name him Oedipus and raise him as their own.
One day he goes to the Oracle of Delphi to find out who his real parents was. She didn't end up telling him who were his patents, but she told him about the Profecy. Hearing this he was terrified. Therefore, to avoid his destiny, he runs away from home.
On his way he got into a fight with an old man, and because answering a riddle of the Sphinx (the guardian of the city of Thebes) at the entrance of Thebes, he gets to marry the queen Jocasta and raised four children with her: Polynices, Eteocles, Antigone, and Ismene.
He eventually found out that the man whom he had killed was his father, King Laius and he had married his wife, Jocasta. He fulfilled the prophecy that everyone had tried to avoid.
This legends leads us to the question: "Do we really make our own choice? Or are we determined to end up that way?"

Six gods, one human. 20 years ago a prophecy was told that the gods future would depend on the choices of the seven at twenty one, these choices would either seal the gods from earth forever or herald a new understanding between gods and humans. The prophecy had been vague about the seven and gods and scholars had spent years trying to work out the riddle, who or what was the seven and then what was the twenty one. One of the scholars believed the twenty one referred to years and if that was the case then the prophecy would be coming to light within the next year. On the day of the prophecy was told six new gods were born , Attis, Boreas, Mors, Erebus, Helios and Pan each bore the same birthmark, scholars believed the boys were linked to the prophecy but were puzzled by the missing seventh. Speculation over the boys continued as they grew up and learnt and trained together, but the boys were competitive and most thought the prophecy was a joke without seeing a seventh mark. 20 years ago on the day the prophecy was told on Earth a baby girl was born under the stars by Angel Falls, her mother cried as she held her newborn baby in her arms, knowing she would not live to see her grow up.

(Book 1 of the Mythology Series) Aphrodite~ Goddess of love; fertility. She stayed in the clouds, looking down upon the humans as she helped them fall in love. She stayed in the clouds, watching as the celestial beings found their mates. She did not mind these things, but the truth was that she was lonely. After creating the powerful connection of love in the mate bond, she wanted nothing more than to experience it. But she knew that gods did not receive them... Or so she thought. ~ I tried to back away from Lucifer but he held me in place, not letting me escape his hold. Although I'm a goddess and he's a Demi god, I know he's much more powerful than me. In every single way. The asshole gets it from his father. My deranged uncle. "Lucifer let me g-" He let out another growl at my attempts to talk him out of this. But there was no talking to a demon. The hunger in his eyes made my stomach feel queasy. "Don't ever let me hear you talking about another man fucking you unless it's me or your other two mates. He won't ever touch you again unless he wants to die a slow and painful death I'll be happy to give him." I gasped and tried to break free again. "You wouldn't dare touch him!" He gave me a dark chuckle before letting go of me. "Don't dare me. I like a challenge, Aphrodite. Oh, and don't forget your words. You could never moan his name to the heavens since he has never pleasured you. It takes 3 cocks to pleasure you, my beautiful mate. He only has one." A beautiful smirk came on his lips and I narrowed my eyes at him. "There'll be punishment for that later." ------- Story on my Patreon! Link in bio!
