SONG OF ACHILLES SEQUEL Nº 3 After a thousand years, our favourite couple is still together, even if they've been through some tough times in the past. After all, true love never really ends. Everything seems to be perfectly ok, but, for the third time since they entered eternity, some new population management system wants to tear them apart , due to them being demigod and commoner in their lifes on Earth. They're stronger and wiser now and they know how to handle some things, trying hard to pull some strings and even reaching out to people from their pasts, but this time, there isn't something they can do about it, so they try to make some last memories together before losing eachother forever... (English isn't my mother tongue so please ignore any mistakes) (This story is the sequel of "Between Us" and "Bring Him Back To Me", my two other Achilles and Patroclus fanfictions, which are themselves unofficial sequels of "The song of Achilles", by Madeline Miller. This one is the final, at least that's what I'm aiming for. ) Enjoy reading!!!

Tidal Wave (Luke Castellan) by Phoenix_Ninja_3
52 parts Ongoing
When I was young, I was always told that everyone loved a tragic Greek love story. Orpheus and Eurydice. Apollo and Hyacinth. Hero and Leander. Achilles and Patroclus. I had asked my mother why so many of those stories didn't have happy endings. She just gave me a grim smile and told me how the world of the gods was tricky. There was a lot about it that I didn't understand yet. That was 13 years ago. I think I understand it now.
Navigating Hermes (Book Two) by amysousa
30 parts Complete
Book Two of the "Immortal Love" series. Julie Brown, an outgoing New Zealander who loves travelling and having a good time, finds nothing more boring than the thought of being tied down to one location, or worse; a man. That's why she jumps at the opportunity when her parents agree to finance one year of travelling on the condition that she takes a location-based Greek Mythology course with her twin brother. After forming a new friendship that leads to a newly found work-ethic and a lot of studying, Julie celebrates with a club-night in Mykonos, ending up in bed with her professor's attractive friend. It isn't a big deal at first, but when she learns that her seemingly-normal one night stand is a major figure from her mythology course, everything she's ever believed in starts to change.
