Tell me a story, one that I'd never heard before
Enchant me with your sweet voice
For my tormented soul that cannot fly
It can breathe in peace, just one more night.
Oh, my glowing ethereal goddess
My enticing mermaid
My beloved demoness
My one and only, dark rose
My Sultana Halfeti.

Tempting the Fates
What if mythology isn't a myth? Callie Prescott has the rest of her life planned out: get into med school, become a heart surgeon, and heal the world. But when her long-lost mom reappears and she learns the truth about who she really is, Callie must give up everything - her dreams, her dad, and her future - to be the wife of Hades, the God of the Underworld. Callie is surprised to find that her new kingdom isn't what she imagined, and neither are those who call it home. Callie wants to be bitter, but she cannot understand why this man - this god - sparks a desire in her that she has never felt before. But all is not well in the Underworld. Someone is after Hades' throne, and they want to open Tartarus once and for all. Callie and her new husband must travel between the Underworld, Earth, and Olympus to gain help from some larger-than-life gods and fix everything before it's too late. The balance of life and death depends on it. Can Callie fulfill her destiny, or is she just tempting the Fates? *BOOK ONE in the Tempting the Fates series* ----- 🥇 #1 in "Goddess" - 12/31/2021 🥇 #1 in "Persephone" - 7/30/2021 🥇 #1 in "Aphrodite" - 10/2/2020 🥇 #1 in "Eros" - 7/14/2021 🥇 #1 in "Greek" - 12/31/2021 🥇 #1 in "Mythology" - 4/6/2022 🥇 #1 in "Hades" - 4/6/2022 ----- TW/CW: violence, death, language, sexual content.

The Tale of Hades & Persephone
This is a rewrite of my previous fan fiction "Tales of Hades and Persephone" as well as some inspiration from the original myth (and perhaps other retellings I enjoy). Hades has been alone for far too long. One day he pays a visit to Zeus and requests to marry Persephone. The King of the Gods agrees and even recommends Hades kidnap Persephone, since it's unlikely Demeter will agree to the marriage. Persephone is a young Goddess of Earth curious about the world of the mortals. She's always helping her mother Demeter, but one day while watching the mortals she wanders off only to fun into a handsome stranger. After a brief conversation, Persephone finds herself swept away to the Underworld. Will Hades manage to get Persephone to fall in love with him? What will Demeter do when she discovers her daughter is missing and it's all Zeus' fault? Will the mortals be able to survive the wrath of the Gods?Complete

DIVINE - A Persephone And Hades Retelling
"I've told you, Hades, I can not become your mistress." she sadly told him. She had always lived in her mother's shadow, and if she followed Hades, she would once again be living in another's shadow. Even though she loved him, she did not think she could stomach it. "I do not want you to be my mistress, Persephone, I want you to be my queen," he confessed to her. She snapped her head up to meet his eyes, searching for any sign he wanted to take his words back, but there was no remorse. And just like that, she fell ever so slightly more in love with him. "Your queen?" she asked, she had to be sure. Strangely the word had slid off her tongue gracefully as if it had belonged there. "Yes, become my queen," he told her once again, taking back the step she had taken. "Rule besides me as the goddess of spring and the Underworld." The words don't seem to make sense in her mind. --- Further description in the book --- #1 - MYTH RETELLING (as of October 1st, 2021) #1 - GODDESS OF SPRING (as of Nov 23rd, 2021) #1 - HADES TOWN (as of Jan 13th, 2022) #1 - HADES AND PERSEPHONE (as of Feb 9th, 2022) #1 - GREEK MYTHOLOGY (as of March 29th, 2022) #1 - QUEEN OF THE UNDERWORLD (as of April 4th, 2022) #1 - PERSEPHONE AND HADES (as of April 20th, 2022) #1 - GOD OF THE UNDERWORLD (as of April 20th, 2022) #1 - KING OF THE UNDERWORLD (as of Dec 22, 2022) #2 - HECATE (as of Nov 4th, 2021) #2 - DEMETER (as of Jan 29th, 2022) #2 - KING AND QUEEN (as of Feb 21st, 2022) #2 - PERSEPHONE (as of Sep 20th, 2023) #3 - GREEK MYTH (as of May 6th, 2022) #4 - MYTH (as of April 21th, 2022) #4 - RETELLING (as of May 10th, 2022) #4 - UNDERWORLD (as of 26th, 2023) #6 - HADES (as of April 8th, 2022) #6 - DIVINE (as of May 6th, 2022) #41 - OLYMPIANS (as of Feb 9th, 2021) #55 - GREEK (as of May 8th, 2022) #61 - OLYMPUS (as of May 8th, 2022)Complete

Isolation can be devastating. But love...can destroy everything around you. For Persephone, isolation is being kept under the suffocating gaze of her mother, treated like a child and forbidden from interaction with her own kind or the mortal people under her care. For Hades, isolation is a deadly gift, a silent and lifeless kingdom that he alone rules -- and that cuts him off from all that he would consider family. But when the winds of chance throw two love-starved souls together, it heralds the end of the universe as they know it.... #1 in HadesxPersephone (09/18/22) #2 in Persephone (09/27/22)Complete
The Living Scripture: Rise of the Unseen
Peace never lasts when Heaven writes your story. I thought surviving death (again) would earn me a break. Maybe a quiet honeymoon. A chance to remember what it's like to be human. Instead, the universe handed me another apocalypse, and a husband who literally breathes storms. Seth and I have returned to a world that's moved on without us. Demons are learning to pray, angels are choosing sides, and somewhere under the Euphrates, something ancient is waking up. They call me the Living Scripture. I call myself the woman who can't catch a break. Every miracle has a cost, every decree a consequence, and Heaven's handwriting is getting messy. I'm done being a verse in someone else's prophecy. This time, I'm rewriting it, one sarcastic prayer at a time. Arc 2 of The Living Scripture Saga A tale of divine power, human frailty, and love that glows like gold and breathes like silver. Follow the story. Don't be shy. The button won't bite... but the characters might.
Moth
They say the world used to turn. They say that night would follow day in an endless dance. They say that dawn rose, dusk fell, and we worshiped both sun and stars. That was a long time ago. The dance has died. The world has fallen still. We float through the heavens, one half always in light, one half always in shadow. Like the moth of our forests, one wing white and the other black, we are torn. My people are the fortunate. We live in daylight, blessed in the warmth of the sun. Yet across the line, the others lurk in eternal night, afraid... and alone in the dark. I was born in the light. I was sent into darkness. This is my story.Complete
Hades and Persephone
Persephone has already been kidnapped by Hades, her unwanted and unexpected suitor. Demeter has already cast a famine on all the humans in her grief. Hades struggles to win Persephone over...but perhaps Persephone has always been meant to be with him, and she wasn't an innocent as she was thought she was... Moderate explicit parts. *not finished* "Look, Persephone, you're a reasonable Goddess, more reasonable than most. You have to understand I was not born the Lord of the Underworld. The title was appointed to me because I was the unlucky one. My job is just as important as my brother's jobs. I wasn't selected because of my cruel ways but now because of the way people speak of me and fear me now I am the cruel one whether or not I like it. Do you honesty think it is fair that it should work that way? People take one look at me and assume I'm the devil." Persephone crouches back in her seat. I realize I am standing and seat myself, trying to calm myself. "Do you honestly think that being in charge of the dead and judging them makes me undeserving of love, of a wife? I'm doomed to be exiled down here. I don't even have the sun to keep me warm, Persephone. You're all the sun I have..." *This story is also not meant to be factually accurate, and is simply an interpretation of the story.Complete
𝗕𝗥𝗢𝗞𝗘𝗡 𝗥𝗨𝗟𝗘𝗦 (UNTAMED LOVE #2)
Beautiful and divine. Her wings were meant to be spread so she could fly to freedom, but she was caged. Her eyes silently begged me to have mercy on her while I was meant to break her. Sent to me as a reward, I had only one month to clip off her wings and I did it without thinking of the consequences. But she kept me hypnotized under her mysterious gaze, leaving me thirsty for her own secrets. I broke her and in return, she kept me bleeding for her...Complete
