Honeyed Storm: The Epic of (Name)" by spiraltears

In the age of heroes, gods, and war, the world forgot her name. Born under a bleeding moon, (Name) was the divine child of Nyx, goddess of night, and Aether, god of upper air and light-an impossible union never meant to happen. To hide the shame of their union, the gods misplaced her thread in the Loom of Fate. She was cast down to the mortal world, raised in the shadows as a girl with eyes like galaxies and power she never asked for. But fate doesn't forget. It waits. It obsesses. As a young woman, she marries Odysseus and Penelope in secret-three hearts bound in a rare and sacred union. When war calls Odysseus to Troy, (Name) defies every expectation and joins him, setting sail as his equal, his protector, and unknowingly, the object of everyone's unraveling. On this journey, (Name) becomes the eye of a storm she never meant to summon: • Gods fall in love with her. And not gently. • Demigods chase her like moths to divine flame. • Monsters let her live when they should have killed. • Penelope, back in Ithaca, becomes possessive and wrathful in her longing. • Odysseus loses battles from jealousy alone, afraid someone will touch what's his. Even the world itself seems to shift toward her: Islands tilt. Winds wail. The stars blink in rhythm with her breath. As the crew dwindles-not from war, but from obsession-fueled madness-(Name) begins to uncover the truth: The gods are not simply in love. They are desperate. The Loom of Fate has started unraveling because her misplaced thread has warped destiny itself. If she doesn't confront her origins... If she doesn't choose what she wants... The world may rip itself apart trying to possess her.

The Light Of Apollo's Love by OliveWoodsWriting

Myrrh could only remember so far back in time, her memory becoming a blur of her life before being placed within the stone walls of the garden she resided in. Her former friend, Apollo, keeps her company in secret until he slips up one night and Myrrh begs him to stay. Instead, he whisks her away to his world of Olympus and is soon entangled within conflicts between jealous and vengeful gods, seeking out the light Apollo placed within her soul to keep her alive, a portion of the sun. As she's swept up into the unknown world of her past, will her memories finally return to her with the help of her former friends, as she navigates the peculiar realm she is now within, while also dealing with grief and even feelings of love for the people she cares for?

The Shadowed Song of Ithaca by rynthegreat

Kallistrate was never a darling of the altars. Raised in Sparta and rumored to be Hades' blood, she learned early that survival is a craft. Her gifts-hearing the dead, bending shadow, keeping her spine steady-make her a useful problem the gods can't ignore. When she's sent to Ithaca to marry Prince Telemachus, she finds a court rotting under a hundred hungry men and a queen who refuses to bend. Ares trains her at dawn. Athena tests her at dusk. The island's dead crowd her name with pleas, and every rite becomes a battlefield. But Kallistrate is no one's spectacle. With Penelope at her side and Telemachus at her shoulder, she turns custom into strategy: sacred lamps, feast-day oaths, the old challenges that remember who a king is. As omens sharpen and a beggar with storm-bright eyes kneels at a dais, Ithaca's halls brace for the reckoning. A lyrical retelling filled with political intrigue, found courage, and slow-burn devotion, The Shadowed Song of Ithaca asks what it costs to keep a home-and whether a girl made of shadows can write her own ending. For fans of Madeline Miller, Jennifer Saint, Jorge Rivera-Herrans and mythic romantasy with sharp edges. Content notes: violence; death/grief; gods' manipulation; trauma mentions; court/political tension, mentions of assault (NEVER graphic), men being intimidating.

We were something by Anyone005

"If he ever finds out how fast my heart beats when he's near me... I'm doomed." "If she gets any closer, I'm going to forget why I'm pretending not to care." Claire never expected her quiet life to clash with Archer- the school's most unreadable mystery. What starts with playful pranks turns into late night thoughts, missed chances and a silence that grows too loud to ignore. One misunderstanding changes everything. five years later, they meet again- older, colder and still unfinished. They were something. But can They ever become something again? one misunderstanding. 5 yrs apart. A love that never left.
