Kyra Akurra has lived with the curse since the moment she was born. Passed from generation to generation, the Medusa Curse is something Kyra will never be able to get rid of.

She lives in small town Romana Texas, where the population never grows and everyone knows everyone. Here, she lives in isolation as a snake breeder, but not once has she ever ventured outside her grounds.

But her world has turned upside down upon the arrival of her new business partner Victor Thanatos. He is mysterious, devious, intelligent,  and sexy. ALSO, he is completely ready to uproot everything Kyra has ever known for one single purpose: Money. Everything about him spells chaos as he become the constant itch under Kyra's skin. 

Nothing about this situation spells out good things for Kyra, and she can already feel her mentality breaking down. But is it because of pressure from the curse finally calling her, or does this headache mean that she's doing the one thing she promised herself would never happen: fall for a man.   Will she be able to survive being thrown together with this new problem, or will her sanity collapse?

22 parts Complete
In the ancient, mythical city of Aethria, where legends and gods once walked among mortals, a unique and captivating love story unfolds. "Echoes of the Gaze" weaves a tale of two individuals who defy destiny's cruel twists, embracing the beauty within their imperfections. Medusa, the infamous Gorgon with snakes for hair, lives a secluded life in the ruins of a forgotten temple on the outskirts of Aethria. Cursed by Athena for her breathtaking beauty and the consequences of a tragic betrayal, she now bears the burden of turning anyone who gazes into her eyes into stone. Her heart aches for connection, but her curse keeps her isolated, yearning for a love she believes is unattainable. In the heart of Aethria resides Alexios, a gentle and talented musician who lost his sight in a childhood accident. Despite his blindness, he has learned to navigate the world with grace and courage, using his heightened senses of touch, sound, and intuition. His music is renowned throughout the city, captivating all who hear it. One fateful day, while wandering the ruins in search of inspiration for a new composition, Alexios stumbles upon Medusa's forgotten temple. Unbeknownst to him, he gazes in her direction, but his blindness saves him from her curse. Intrigued by the presence of another person in her desolate world, Medusa remains hidden, observing him from the shadows. As Alexios explores the temple, he discovers a beautifully sculpted statue, seemingly carved from the finest marble. He is inexplicably drawn to this life-like figure and begins to play a haunting melody on his lyre. The enchanting notes fill the temple, and Medusa, hidden behind a pillar, is captivated by the music... A.N - second book of Divine Desires :)
