Greek mythology. One enormous, twisted family's stories told a million different ways. You've seen it through the eyes of each and every hero in the legends. You've seen it though the eyes of Aphrodite, Pesephone, and Hera. You may have even seen it through the eyes of one of the many terrible beasts from the myths. This is the story of a quieter character. She is no less important, and no less interesting. In fact, she's one of the three high queens. Meet Amphitrite. Wife and consort queen of Poseidon, the sea god and the mighty earth shaker. The couple may have a shaky marriage, but one element they never lack is love. We'll meet other gods along the way, but you are about to take a very close look inside the intriguing life of the forgotten queen of the seven seas.

In a world where the whispers of the gods can be heard by those who truly listen, a young woman named Elara finds herself trapped in a cycle of unrequited love. Every morning and night, she offers heartfelt prayers to Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love, yearning for her destined soulmate. But when her pleas grow too frequent and too desperate, the enchanting goddess becomes exasperated with Elara's relentless requests. In a twist of fate, Aphrodite decides to grant Elara's wish-but not in the way she expects. She summons Ares, the formidable God of War, whose tumultuous past with Aphrodite is shrouded in mystery and passion. Ares is a warrior of unmatched strength and intensity, embodying everything Elara thought she wanted, yet his presence brings with it a whirlwind of chaos and conflict. As Elara grapples with the challenge of winning Ares's heart before time runs out, she discovers that love is not merely a fairytale; it's a battleground filled with trials, tribulations, and unexpected truths. With the clock ticking and the gods watching closely, Elara must navigate her feelings for the brooding god while uncovering the depth of her own strength and desires. Will she find a way to connect with Ares, or will their divine differences prove insurmountable? In this enchanting reimagining of Greek mythology, Elara learns that love is as fierce and unpredictable as the gods themselves, and sometimes, the heart's true calling comes from the most unexpected places.

The Love of Aphrodite - Book 1

43 parts Complete Mature

Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love and Beauty is forced into an unwanted marriage the very evening she emerges from the sea. While Hephaestus is not terrible to her, she can't help but be enticed by his forbidden brother, Ares, and the other Gods who send her longing glances. Will she settle for Hephaestus or will she search for more for her own love story? *This story follows along some of Aphrodite's romances while married to Hephaestus. This story will not be a perfect timeline but will however, follow along a rough timeline according to my other book, Hades and Persephone.* *Also, Aphrodite has her faults. A fair amount of faults in fact! If you know her mythology she turns out to be a very vengeful, self-centred, and self-involved Goddess, but this story is all about her slowly progressing throughout her marriage to Hephaestus. A sequel will follow beyond once this marriage ends.* *This story is also not meant to be factually accurate, and is simply an interpretation of the story.
