Seiraphina has always thought she was just a typical high-school girl-adopted but living a normal life. However, on her seventeenth birthday, everything she knows unravels when she learns a shocking truth: her real mother is Hera, queen of the gods, and she's being hunted by Zeus, who wants her dead. Thrown into a world of ancient gods, mythical creatures, and dangerous secrets, Seiraphina must join forces with Regulus, the mysterious son of Nyx, as she embarks on a quest to protect her life and prove her worth to the king of the gods.
As Zeus sends monsters to track her down, Seiraphina discovers she has a destiny far greater than she ever imagined, tied to the gods and their eternal struggles. With Hera's protection and Regulus by her side, Seiraphina faces a perilous journey that will test her courage, uncover her true heritage, and determine her place in a divine world that has long remained hidden.
In a race against time and the wrath of Zeus, Seiraphina must decide if she's ready to embrace the power of her bloodline-or risk everything in the pursuit of the life she once knew. But in the world of gods and monsters, nothing comes without a price.

MYTH-TAKEN IDENTITY - a 2025 ONC novella
An introverted, recluse gamer accidentally finds out she's the reincarnation of a Greek god/goddess, and is stuck in a world-altering time-loop until she figures out WHICH god/goddess she's destined to become. ***** Ophelia Jones is...well, she's nothing. She asks for nothing. She WANTS nothing. Just to stay in her dark basement-apartment, do her mindless data-entering job by day, play video games by night. She refuses to participate in a real social life, and won't read the news or be active in the LGTBQIA+ scene that she belongs in. No, Ophelia is done giving a sh**. She'd rather live in her fantasy world, ignoring the real world around her. That is, until a mysterious puddle surfaces in her backyard, and she jokingly wonders if it'll be a portal to another world, someplace better - and she falls into it. Oh, she's transported to a new world, all right -- but not a parallel world or an alternate universe. She's transported to the past; into mythology, specifically. Greek mythology, to be even more exact. Because according to Alfie, her "spiritual guide", she's a reincarnated god or goddess, and has to figure out who. Problem? SHE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT GREEK MYTHOLOGY. ONC prompts 37 + 5Complete

But with a past that holds more than a few dark secrets and a future that could tear them apart, Maleficent and Hades must decide if they'll let their fierce pride keep them at odds, or if they'll risk everything to see what could happen if they allow themselves to fall. In a story filled with sharp wit, simmering tension, and the delicate balance between love and hate, this tale of enemies-to-lovers will leave you spellbound.
