BOOK SIX Gods Of Desterrados & The Divine Archangelics by Poly_Arcana808

"I just needed to see you. It's been months and we have both been really busy so, Widow? Would you mind if I spoke with my wife alone...please?" gritted Michael. He was quite irritated by then as Widow smiled innocently while twirling around in a leisurely pace on a wheelchair. "Oh, for fucking God's sake, Mikey! Will ya' lighten up you fucknut? I'm just trying to maintain my mentally unstable quota so Empress and I could stay here for a few more weeks. After your shithead Spartans extracted us a week ago from Salem, we've been VIP ever since so if Empress says I stay here, then I stay here," she grinned amusingly. She was hilariously trying to run over Michael's feet until he shoved her wheelchair into a nearby wall. She screamed joyfully before crashing into a bookshelf with a thud. Empress ignored the commotion and simply sighed before caressing Michael's face. "I missed you, Michael. But so much has happened between us and I don't know--" He took that as a cue and kissed her softly while his hands framed Empress' face. "Then take me, Michael. I missed the touch of a man," she whispered. "I hope you don't mean any man, Lelei. I'm not just any man. I'm your man, right?" he chuckled as his lips brushed her forehead. "Of course, my love. And are you still my love?" she asked amusingly while her finger traced his strong jawline. "Yes indeed, my beloved. And are you still my beloved?" he asked while kissing her temples. "Always, Michael," she murmured before kissing him deeply. "Ahem. While you two ass twerps make out, I'm gonna go take a cold shower and find a leg brace or something. So, don't worry about me Mr. and Mrs. Meathead. I'm just gonna wheel my crippled ass to the infirmary so I can find an adult," muttered Widow before wheeling herself to the nearest nurse for medical attention due to her broken ankle from the collision with the now broken bookshelf. © 2020 Jeannie Mane.

The oath between Gods by For_entertainment_on

Title: The Oath Between Gods Summary: After the Trojan War, the weary and battle-worn Odysseus stumbles upon a forgotten island-home to Medeia, the feared Goddess of Justified Vengeance, and War's Unseen Toll. Known for her ruthless retribution against oathbreakers and oppressors, Medeia has long been an outsider among the Olympians, feared and respected in equal measure. However, she is not alone. Ares, the God of War, has sought her out, drawn by an unspoken bond neither of them have dared to acknowledge. When Odysseus carelessly questions the nature of their relationship, it forces Medeia and Ares to confront what has long gone unsaid between them. But words are not enough. Medeia, ever the goddess of oaths and retribution, demands something stronger-an unbreakable vow. In a temple heavy with divine history, Ares swears a sacred oath to fight beside her, binding himself to her cause in ways that even he does not yet fully understand. As the mark of their pact burns into his skin, Olympus stirs with unease. The Goddess of Vengeance and the God of War, standing united? It is a bond that could shift the balance of power among the gods. A bond that could bring justice to the unjust... or destruction to all who stand in their way. And Zeus? He is watching. Waiting. And he will not let this go unanswered.

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 :)
