Many forget that the goddess of love was born from the raging sea, but she would do anything to protect her daughter. Adora was Aphrodite's last daughter. Her mother kept her hidden. But, her mother isn't the only one who can keep a secret, especially in a world where your role in society is everything. For there was a prophecy long before she was born: 'Aphrodite's last child would be the one to take the throne, Her paternity unknown. They would carve her face and never forget, for she would be the most beautiful that they had met Cursed for the same fate as her mother Forced to leave her love for another The only way she shall break this curse is if she defeats the first' "Looks like the princess doesn't need saving after all." He says, quietly enough that no one else would hear, as he draws his hand away from my arm. I glare back at him. "Maybe she never did," I walk away, not sparing a single glance back, no matter how much my body was begging me to. I fuss over my hair, pouting as I run my fingers through it to put it back into place. *A warning note* I am not an expert on Greek Mythology, but it interests me greatly. Please excuse any inaccuracies in the book, but if there are any please do message or comment it and I will see if I can change it without making such a huge difference to the plot. Also, my main character is autistic and the experience will be different for everyone. I have tried my hardest to put down on paper how I feel and how I believe others see me. So, please be respectful about the decisions my characters make as I have chosen to give them many different types of neurodivergent brains. I have tried my best to represent these in the most accurate light whilst not romanticising them.

Breaking the Ice by hahathatbitch

"Mama!" "Bébé courir!" (Baby run!) The woman screamed in French at her child to run away, the young girl looking at her mother with tears in her eyes. "Non!" (No) She screamed, her eyes widening when she watched her mother, the only family she ever knew, be stabbed through the heart with a sword. The man who did it took the sword out of the mother who lay dead, his evil menacing eyes looking down at the shaking girl as she slowly backed away. "Vous êtes le prochain." (You're next.) -- "P-Prince Elias, I'm a monster.." ... "You create beautiful things. You, my darling, are no monster." ------------------------- After the unfortunate loss of her mother, Renee runs away to a kingdom similar to her own, running from her past.

Until one snowy easter night, in a brief conversation, he met her. After 300 years, he finally found a woman he could love so intensely, the curse would break. But he soon realised a terrible problem: that woman, with all her incredible wisdom, was not only blind but also hated him. Rated PG-13 for dark mental themes.

Bride of the Greek Prince by AshleyMarWrites

Perdita just wanted a vacation. Three weeks free of a certain annoying coworker constantly one-upping her. No impossible demands by a boss looking for any excuse to fire her. No nagging from her father and step-witch about when she is going to give them grandchildren like her perfect step-sister. Three weeks of relaxation on a Nile River cruise... But misfortune seems to follow Perdita (could it be because she was named after the tragic Shakespearean character?). Before she can settle into her vacation, Perdita falls into an exhibit on the ship, accidentally touching an ancient relic of unknown origin. Perdita finds herself being transported to ancient Egypt where she is being tried as a criminal... Lucky, or unlucky for her, Mycenaean prince Acacius takes in interest in her, calling her "Helen." He decides to bring her back to Mycenae with him to serve him as his wife. Perdita soon finds herself wrapped up in ancient politics, war, magic, and love... She wanted a vacation... not an adventure... *Some liberties have been taken with dates and historic events. Some changes are explained throughout the story and will make sense as you read... others are to make the timeline fit :)*

All I Need ✔️ by Chronically-Chaotic

"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.
