Maybe using those waxed wings wasn't Icarus' best idea. Maybe he shouldn't have gone THAT close to the Sun, just so he could get a glimpse of the impossible. But it's not like he could bring time back now, could he?
Meeting Death made a big change in the mortal's head, and not only his head.
Meeting the cute God didn't help with his delusions of a beautiful,flower-field easy life.
Something is not adding up though. Why is the forest Nymph so harsh to him and nobody else, and why there is an empty throne on the left of the God's one? What is hiding behind the closed doors of Mount Olympus that they refuse to give him a chance to live a normal life?
Who is Icarus and what is hidden behind this crown-less prince?

All Hail The Prince (Wattys 2025) ✔️
Book One of Two in the Hail Royalty duology. Book two is a different couple. PRINCE CYPRUS: Life used to be simple. College classes, caffeine overdoses, and love letters that always arrived when it rained. Sweet, right? Turns out, my "secret admirer" was my best friend Artemio (Art) Rome-at least, that's what he claimed. We agreed to stay friends (because I've only ever seen him as a brother), but something about the whole situation always felt... off. Especially since the other person I trusted most, Evander Knight, disappeared the night of his graduation-one year before mine-and ghosted me completely. And it was suspiciously the same night Art took credit for the secret admirer letters. Now it's two years later, and guess who's back in my life? Yep. Evander. And we're stuck working together as editorial assistants, trying to convince the notoriously reclusive author Storm Orion to finally write the sequel to his hit novel-the same one that ended on a soul-crushing cliffhanger before he vanished into thin air. Oh, and the letters? They've started up again. Art swears it was him all along, but the more he insists, the less I believe him. Storm Orion only replies to my emails. And the sequel? It's weirdly familiar. Too familiar. Evander's back. The letters are back. And I'm starting to realize I might have always been in love with the boy who left, and not the boy who stayed. So now I've got questions: Why did Evander disappear? Who actually wrote the letters? And who, exactly, is Storm Orion? And to think, I always thought I was chasing someone else's story (Storm Orion's sequel). But maybe it's my story. And now, with everything unraveling-the secrets, the letters, Evander's return-the biggest plot twist of my life happens. The plot twist? Storm Orion's books are meant for me, and I'm the only one who can choose how they end. Will it be another heartbreaking cliffhanger... Or the happy ending we all deserve?Concluida
𝓘𝓷𝓷𝓮𝓻 𝓓𝓮𝓶𝓸𝓷𝓼 - 𝓢𝔂𝓵𝓾𝓼
Lilith crosses paths with a man whose presence is impossible to ignore-broad-shouldered, quiet, and carrying an aura that unsettles everyone around him. To others, he's intimidating, someone to keep a careful distance from. But to her, the moment their eyes meet, something shifts. Her heart catches, and she feels an unexplainable pull toward him, as though fate itself had drawn their worlds together. She doesn't see the shadows he carries, the secrets buried deep within his silence. To her, he is mystery and allure, danger wrapped in beauty. What she doesn't yet know is that the man who just stole her breath is also the one hiding truths that could shatter her world. ------------------------------- Sylus was a man feared by many-an intimidating figure whose power and presence commanded every room he walked into. Cold, calculating, and untouchable, he built walls so high that no one dared to climb them. His life was one of control, where love had no place and vulnerability was a weakness he refused to show. But then she appeared. A young woman with a brightness that seemed to cut through his shadows, carrying warmth he didn't know he craved. Her laughter unsettled him, her kindness disarmed him, and her stubborn heart challenged the man who thought himself unchangeable. Where others saw only danger in him, she saw the pieces of someone worth saving. Against his instincts, he let her in. Slowly, she unraveled the darkness he carried, teaching him that love wasn't weakness-it was strength. And as she guided him onto a path he never thought he'd walk, he discovered that even the most powerful man can be humbled by the simplest truth: to be truly loved is to finally be free.Concluida
To Search For Flowers (Apollo X Hyacinthus) (Hermes X Crocus)
We've all heard of the two tales of heartbreak. Similar, but never the same. Hyacinthus. Crocus. Both turned into flowers. Both beautiful souls crushed by fate-or, well, smacked by it. (Discus, meet skull.) But what happens when fate gets bored of the ancient world... and revives them in a new one? Where discus evolved into frisbees, Olympus has Wi-Fi, and the gods still haven't figured out how to mind their own business. Reborn as Kalliste and Asiminia, the two demigoddesses struggle to fit into a world that moves too fast, laughs too loud, and doesn't believe in gods anymore. Still, each night they remember-the sun's warmth, the laughter of a trickster, and the heartbreak that made them flowers. Meanwhile, up on Olympus, two gods are losing their divine minds. Apollo's radiant calm? Gone. Hermes' chill? Evaporated. Because apparently, everyone knew about the girls' reincarnation-except them. And so begins the chaos. Do the gods find them? Do the flowers bloom again? Or will fate play its favorite game one last time-only to break every heart, mortal and divine -☀️🪻🪽⚘️-
A Bird's Eye View: The Villain and the Hero's Love Affair
You're just a little birdie, minding your own business-flying around, dodging falling leaves, trying not to get too involved in the messes of the city below. But, oh, the drama! The masked hero and the brooding villain you've been watching for months-yeah, those two? They have a lot of secrets. The hero's perfect, obviously, saving the world and all that. But the villain? Oh, dear. By day, they wear a mask of evil and power, but you've seen what happens when the cape comes off. There's some serious darkness lurking in their private life-self-loathing, quiet pain, and way too many late-night mood swings. But don't worry, the villain's got it under control... or so they think. You thought their love story was one of those sweet "enemies-to-lovers" kind of deals, until you saw the truth from way up here. It's a mess. Betrayal. Anger. Love. Secret identities. A fight that's way more personal than you ever imagined. But hey, that's not your problem, right? You're just a bird. Except, well... Maybe you care. Maybe you're the one who's been flying around, wondering if their messy, secret love story will ever have a happy ending-or if one of them will end up on the wrong side of the city's skyscraper (literally). From your vantage point, it's a little too close for comfort, but hey-no one ever said love was easy, even for villains and heroes. Just try not to get caught in the crossfire, okay?

With Blood shall come Desire (MxM)
Celestial London Chronicles #1 Long ago, the sun Xyliath, one of the ancient gods, fell in the first Blood War for peace. Her burning tears formed a flaming sword, which she gave to her son Aurelius. The sword had the power to destroy worlds and create new ones, but above all it possessed a power that no other god had. The ability to kill a god. No man, no hand and no weapon could cut through the skin of a celestial being and take out its heart. The Sword of Xyliath was the only exception. For centuries, the sword was protected by the sun god Aurelius, until it was stolen. The sun god, who has long rivalled the moon god, blames the latter for this and sends his grandson Silthos, the god of love and desire, to capture him. The young god receives support from the most feared deity of all - Aristaeus, the god of blood and war. This unusual partnership is intended to save the world from a possible new assassin of the gods. But the collaboration proves to be more difficult than expected. Silthos' usual charm doesn't seem to attract the god of blood and war, and Aristaeus' penchant for blood and torture even gives Silthos the creeps. Two men - a psycho and an unkissed man who embodies lust and desire. Can they save the world from the power of the sword? Who can they trust and, most importantly, can they trust each other?

How Icarus Fell From the Sun (a Solangelo fanfic)
Nico felt like Icarus. Fly too close to the sun, and your wings will melt. Fly too close to the sea, your wings will grow heavy. Nico had already flown too close to the sea. He had allowed his infatuation with Percy to rule his life, his decisions, for far to many years. His wings had grown heavy, and he'd drowned. Icarus had made a mistake. He strayed too far, entranced by the kindness of the light. The dark wouldn't be as welcoming, ushering you in with no hesitancy and crossed arms. That didn't work out so well for Icarus. So, Nico would allow this filter, this light, to cover him, shroud him in kindness, and possibility, and warmth. But he would not cross further. He would not succumb to the light only to fall forever into darkness. He would do what Icarus couldn't. Nico di Angelo would not fly too close to the sun. Cover art by viria!Concluida
