Alexander the Great is becoming a god...or at least, that's what he believes. But things are not all as they seem, and Alexander may live (or, rather, die) to regret his wish for immortality. 

This story is my first ever fanfiction piece, and an entry in @SarahBensonBooks' 'Born of Shadows' fanfic contest. The story should stand on its own if you haven't read BoS, but if you haven't read it, you're really missing out. I'm excited to say it won the Scarab (Judges Choice) award!

I would love any feedback you have, especially as I've never done this before. Also, if you think I did a good job, a vote or two would be great! Enjoy the story :)All Rights Reserved

Not One But Two by PetiteSweet

Alternate Universe/Historical Fiction/ Fantasy/A little bit of Alexander (2004) Fanfiction, which despite many controversial opinions from the viewers, I still think this is a high-value movie. I do not own anything from the movie. This story took place when Alexander and his army arrived at Susa, the Great Appendage of Persia. This is before they reached the Hindu Kush. I will be mentioning a lot about Gods and Goddesses, as well as their powers and positions. 🌻Plot Summary: The Great King that conquered the world is the God of Victory, son, and heir to Philip II of Macedon, God of Conquer. Phillip's reign of terror over Macedon has brought the nation great wealth and land expansion, but he failed to govern the citizens and meet the major Gods and Goddesses' expectations. Alexander's mother is Olympias, Goddess of Deception. Alexander rose to power, and with the help of his companions, he has finally brought Greek, Persia, and Egypt together under his reign. It's now time for him to rule it as the King of Asia. Uniting his Empire under one man. Alexander declares himself as an "Emperor." What will happen when the Macedonian Army arrives in Persia? How will Alexander fit into his new role? Will his obsession with killing Darius III, the God of Power and Might, be worth it? The fate of his love, Hephaestion God of Velocity, Archery and Forest. The upbringing of a harem is filled with mortals and muses.

IMPRINTS by OvimeDavid

In a world where fate weaves unpredictable tales, a soul is reborn into a land of chaos, adventure, tragedy, and wonder.

As he rises in this unfamiliar realm, he will uncover truths hidden in the shadows, face forces beyond comprehension, and challenge a fate he never asked for. This is the story of his ascent-a journey of struggle, growth, and the unknown. Updates: No fixed schedule-I release chapters once they're written and polished to my satisfaction. Your thoughts matter! Comments and reviews help me improve, so feel free to share your feedback. I'll also do my best to answer any questions you have, that is as long as they are not spoilers

My Angel (COMPLETE) by marichatchat

No one reads things like this. Irina only wanted to find love and live happy, with another human. Not whatever was knocking on her window that Christmas night. Has anyone ever seen what it was? Who it was? Is it some creature, distant crazy thing that can't understand people? A species unknown to people? Or... Do they live among us? Live in our shadows, know every secret we have. Do they make the noises in the alley we hear at night? ꨄ❦ꨄ❦ꨄ➪ ✨there are some dirty jokes and some spicy moments and goofy and rare insults. There might even be some dark humor, please read with caution. There is also a lot of death. And ✨✨✨sexual moves✨✨✨ A majority of the characters are based off of real people so please don't hate unless they genuinely do or say something bad. I hope this is the story that gets successful. And I'm only 16 (now 17) and been writing for only a few years so please give constructive criticism and not hate. I just want to write the best I can. I'm good at poems if y'all wanna give me some ideas. I'm genuinely proud of this story. Please give me a chance. It took a year to write and is my hope and joy.😁 used to be named 'Two Broken Peas in a Pod'

She Came From the Forest (James and Tera: book 1) by davidfoxrouse

When I finally got to the cliff, where there was a clearing, I saw her. She was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Her body, naked and in strong shape, stood at the edge of the cliff, the half full-moon lighting her body. Her hair, hanging half way down her back, was black and straight. I was petrified at the sight of such beauty. _____________ In a small town in Montana, a teenage boy meets a mysterious girl that moves into the not-so-friendly area. She seems tough at first, but at first sight, they become attached to each other. But what he doesn't know is that she has a dark secret that, if uncovered, could put both of them in danger. Will he take that chance in order to please her, the girl he only has just met?

Legacy of the Forbidden King by theafasano

"More?" He pressed. Mia only nodded her head, unable to speak. He brushed his nose against her cheek and commanded in her ear. "Then, beg for more," Zeus smirked. His eyes shone in the dim bedroom, and his hand stopped playing with her clit. "Beg, and I will give to you. Surrender to me, little mate." Alexander and his wolf Zeus were born with a destiny to become the first Alpha King-a ruler powerful enough to unite the werewolf clans and bring an era of peace. Still, his fate turns darker when his father, threatened by Alexander's power, tries to eliminate him.

There, he encounters his mate-a fierce bond that strengthens him and ignites a dangerous attraction. Yet this love is a risk, one that could expose him to those who would destroy them both. With enemies on all sides and loyalty a fragile thread, Alexander must face not only his father but the brutal reality of survival. As shadows close in, he must choose between claiming his birthright as Alpha King or surrendering to the forbidden love that could shatter everything. Legacy of the Forbidden King is a spellbinding journey of betrayal, desire, and the ruthless fight for power. Enter a world where loyalty is sacred, secrets are deadly, and the path to power is paved with blood.

When Night Ate The Sun by InkandBone

[New Chapters Monthly] A Cursed Devourerer. A King of Light. One Destined for Salvation, The Other Sacrifice. *** Helena is the last of her kind, born to an immortal race of beings. Her Ilk was conceived from the Harmonious Union of the first god and goddess, Mother Void and Father Life. Born from Chaos, the Harmonious could consume the flesh of gods. Painted as shape-shifting monsters of both creation and destruction, the Harmonious were said to have wrought destruction through all Realms of Reality. Fearing all of creation's destruction, the youngest twelve gods and goddesses betrayed the Mother and Father. In an act that spilled blood from the stars, every last child of the Harmonious Union was slaughtered. Her spirit now captured and enslaved by the White Pantheon, Helena knows existence only by what it lacks. Starving, exhausted, and formless; Helena is devoid of life. The gods ignore her prayers; Mother is silent to her begging. Centuries pass in torment until the appearance of a mysterious and powerful deity rips her away from formless darkness. The being claims the title Lord of the Black, and though he appears as a man, it soon becomes clear he is no servant of the Twelve. As time progresses, the undeniable pull of attraction and fate continues to lure Helena toward Lord Black. Even though they can't seem to go five minutes without fighting, affection begins to bloom inside Helena's rugged and broken soul. Peace is elusive, however, as the past quickly begins to unravel its twisted roots. An old enemy rears his many heads, threatening the delicate threads of life Helena has just begun to weave. Lies, religious corruption, and the truth about Lord Black's origins begin to dig twisted vines into the blossoming love between them. The struggle of overcoming her nature threatens to undo all that Helena has been gifted. And her very existence promises death for creatures she has learned to love.
