Athena is not a hero.
But she tries to be: she always comes up with a plan and thinks of the most logical solutions first, it's ironic that she's not that wise. Maybe if she were then she wouldn't have any problems. Athena gave up her life for adventuring when she turned 14, hoping to escape her old life. Now 16, she and her adventuring party receive a quest to explore an uncharted island for signs of life. They've only ever done small deeds to help others, so this would be their biggest quest yet. She and her party attempt to uncover the mysteries of this island while learning more about each other and come to realize that maybe this quest should've been taken on by skilled adults and not a group of 16 and 17-year-olds.

The Messiah [1]
Athena has no one. Orphaned at the tender age of twelve, she doesn't want anything to do with the Color War; a decades long war being waged between the vicious King of the new world and the magic users of the past. In a realm where a person's eye color directly relates to the magic they can control, Athena's green eyes mark her as the most powerful mage to have been born in centuries - and everyone wants a piece. Jax has everyone. Prince of the new world, he has no understanding of the war that rages outside the kingdom walls. After the violent death of his childhood tutor, Jax begins to realize the world around him is slowly spinning into all out chaos - and that he doesn't want to be King if his only legacy is cruelty. Their fates are inevitably intertwined, and together, Athena and Jax will be forced to face a prophecy that could leave their country in ruin or usher it into a new era of peace.

Spirals || Mattheo Riddle
"I was reaching for stars that didn't exist, caught up in the fantasies born of willful hope. I threw myself in the path of fate because I wanted to be swept away." ... We do stupid, stupid things in the name of those we love. We dedicate ourselves to false promises and we hope that in the end, it all turns out alright. I was never the kind of person who jumped into things without thinking about the consequences. I never dreamed of what could come from some silly mistakes. Two new students come for their 6th year at Hogwarts. Neither of them particularly want to be there. What havoc could a witch and a dark wizard bring to the year? As they both become frustratingly curious about each other, things fall in place that might never have occurred if they had just never met. ... So I started this book because I was bored, and now it's kind of my life accomplishment weirdly enough. It's not perfect and definitely not what it started out as but this fic has parts of my heart and soul in it and I'm proud of how far it's come. Contains toxic but also lovable Mattheo Riddle and an emotionally relatable mc. !!!Finished updating but still doing some editing!!! *WARNING* Contains violence, sexual content, swearing, mentions of abuse, death and possibly more. *I do not own any of the Harry Potter characters, Mattheo Riddle belongs to @yasmineamara, I only own my own characters. Happy readingComplete![Slytherins Heir [Draco X Reader]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/183028687-256-k954034.jpg)

War Within
Athena was never meant to survive. Born a farmer's daughter in a dying empire, she watched as demons razed her home, as war swallowed her family, as Rome's corruption shattered everything she knew. Taken as a prisoner, forced into servitude under the infamous warlord Mira, she became a weapon-trained to kill, stripped of mercy, forged into something unrecognizable. Then, she died. Executed by the very city she fought to protect, Athena's soul should have been lost to the void. But the gods had other plans. The Angels of Heaven took her, erased her past, and reforged her as a warrior of balance-a soldier in a war older than empires, older than time itself. With the divine blade of the goddess Athena at her side, she was given a second life. A second chance. But vengeance does not die so easily.Complete
Tempted By Darkness
Dark Queen Athena and Light King Alec have always been enemies threading carefully on a silent truce. They have always been each other's polar opposites. He is good, kind hearted, caring and everything she is not. While she.. Well, she is pretty much the definition of bad. She is the monster Alec's people check under the bed for before going to sleep. When the almighty Light King faces trouble and needs the Dark Queen's help, he will have to learn to trust the bad guy- well, in this case, the bad gal. She is an enigma. Athena is everything that he thought she wouldn't be but also everything that he thought she would be. And he.. He has never been so intrigued. DISCLAIMER: Every character used in this story is completely made up. I have merely burrowed the Gods' names. What it is recounted here has nothing to do with what they have done or what they are in mythology books. Also, the book contains a lot of violence, adult language and uncensored sex scenes, so read at your own risk. That being said, please enjoy!Complete
A New Beginning
Introverts, I call out to you: This book is about Athena, the nerdiest of introverts. However, like everyone she was hit by the curse of falling in love. Unable to manage her feelings, she can't hold it anymore. What to do? She fell in love with her best friend, James but...her rival is only perfection itself. How to beat a perfect extrovert magnificent person? Not a single flaw compared to us, introverts. Bree is perfect. Who in the world would choose a flawed but unique introvert rather than a goddess, a princess who is just perfection? This is the first book of an amazing sequel. It will bring you back to the reality of how hard life as an introvert is. Hard but breathtaking at the same time.Each and every introvert is unique in their own way, not all of us react or act the same way but we're not as cold-hearted as people think we are. We have feelings too... Athena is exactly like a secondary character in movies or books. The kind of character we despise or that we don't pay much attention to. Bree and James are usually the protagonists. The lead character, the prince and the gay friend, who apparently has no other life than be devoted to the lead! A typical classic combination often found in romantic movies and books. This case is different, it's from a different perspective, from the point of view which is an outsider of this original combination. The feelings of this secondary character, her events, her point of views. I hope that you'll be able to allow Athena and sometimes James to express themselves. Worth a try, don't you think?

Cold Eyes
Her world had never been soft. She'd learned too quickly that people could love you one day and rip the ground out from under you the next. So she built herself out of armor: cool smirks, careless words, the lie that she didn't care. She convinced everyone around her that she was untouchable, that she didn't need anyone to stay. That way, if they left, it wouldn't matter. But the truth was, she longed for the chaos. She trusted it more than stability, because at least chaos was honest. At least when something was toxic, when it was tension-filled and dangerous, you knew exactly where you stood- you knew it could hurt you. What unsettled her more was the idea of something pure, something kind, because that was where betrayal liked to hide. He's cold. She's reckless. And somewhere between jealousy, secrets, and a Halloween Party that changes everything Athena learns that sometimes the scariest thing isn't being hated. It's being wanted. *** Writing for my bestfriend!
