This is a story I have to write for my History of Ancient Greek class. I hope you all enjoy reading this as I add parts when I write them for the class. It's about this woman name Aphrodisa. Her name came from Aphrodite the Goddess of love. She is like Aphrodite in many ways but she is also a slave and therefore she is focusing on freeing her family and friends from slavery then anything else right now.
In an attempt to protect her heart, newly single, Ember has sworn off love. Intrigued, the goddess Aphrodite decides to change the girl's mind. But when Ember's stubborn nature proves difficult, Aphrodite's intentions turn dark.
•---•---•
Ember Michaelson, hopeless romantic and sophomore in college has waited her entire life to find 'the one'. But when he breaks her heart she's left questioning everything she believes in and declares a ban on love.
Ember could never have foreseen that her small proclamation, or as others might call it: crazed public shouting, would carry to Mount Olympus. But it has, and now she's piqued the interest of someone who is not going to let her plans come to fruition.
The goddess Aphrodite loves a challenge almost as much as she loves gifts, and today is her birthday. Having stayed out of human affairs for centuries, she can't help but feel the allure of divine intervention when Ember's words find her ears. Aphrodite is determined to change Ember's mind, even if that means playing dirty.
