The Queen's Curse by @euphyrys 
A Greek Mythology Story

Previously known as Through Golden Blood
•••

The Queen of the gods never imagined that this was the sort of life she was going to have. Every second of the day feels like an eternity for her. An eternity of hell. After all, she has to withstand all the pain over the years. Her family's hatred towards her. Zeus' endless betrayal and infidelity. They had labeled her as the bitter Queen, vindictive, and jealous wife.

None of them considered whatever she was going through. The constant inner battles were even worse than her extensive arguments with her husband.

How long till she had enough of all the suffering she endured?

How long will it take till she finally loses hope for her family and her husband?

She was tired of it all.

•••

The void temporarily connected with the Lord of the Underworld's domain together with evil spirits fleeing from chains that bound them, causing misery in the world above.

Now, the entire council and the rest of the deities are facing a new threat whilst encountering a tragedy that will change the course of events. 

It will be up to the king to save his queen from the clutches of their past as it is the fate of all the realms that rests in his hands.

"Even amid the hurricane with remorseless winds 
and lightning strikes of the sinister storm, 
my heart belonged to you."

•••

Pairing: Zeus/Hera

A/N: This book is an outlook on Hera's life. I do not own Greek Mythology but I own the plot of the entire story.

"Jealous?" "Why would I be?" "Because I know your fantasies." He argued. I leaned closer to him, smelling his overwhelming scent. "And I'm appalled at how they are just that. Fantasies." He smiled and leaned closer, piercing through my eyes with the blue of his. I wanted to grab the dagger beneath my pillow and kill him already. "Are you now?" He answered, coming dangerously close to me. He brought his hand up to lift my chin, our noses touching. Gods, help me. I want nothing to do with this man. I really don't. He hates me, and I hate him. Our banter is not just banter; there's always a sense of truth in between, and that's what makes it all the more addicting. - THE GOD is the master of death and darkness. Lore, previously known as Hades, rarely ever visited the mortal realm. As the gods get involved in a war against the rebellious uprising amongst the dark angels, he must work together with a group of immortals, a ruthless and serpentine assassin being one of them.

Hades Rewound (Hades Series #2) by _caitlinemma
39 parts Complete
*to be edited: please excuse any continuity errors and / or mistakes in regards the writing quality of Hades* You could say that a lot has happened to Evie Autumn over the past few years. 1. Her best friend died (kind of ) and she found out that everyone she knew were immortal-walking-on-the-earth Greek gods. 2. She fell in love with the ruler of Hell (kind of) and agreed to become his new Queen. 3. She battled jealous sea gods and scary titans; a big fight which really, all could have been avoided with a big family therapy session. Yup, life sure was calmer than it had been in a while. Not that Evie missed the chaos or anything; she totally loved sitting around all day with the love of her life, alternating between telling people how to live their afterlives and telling Hades that he really needed to educate his Disney movie knowledge. But then that serene bubble was shattered when, once again, her life was maliciously twisted out of proportion right in front of her; and on her wedding day, no less. Once again, Evie must race against the clock to save the love of her life - and the world, of course - before time runs out; but this time, the stakes are much higher. This time, it's not just the fate of the world on the line. It's Evie's heart too. [Ranked #76 in Teen Fiction on 05.10.16] [OFFICIAL HADES SEQUEL]
