They call me a fool for falling in love. They say I'm a cautionary tale; a tragedy. They point at the burns, red and ugly and snaking down my arm. If only they knew how I threw my head back and laughed as I soared, tasting freedom sweeter than the nectar of the Gods. How could I have been a tragedy when my bliss was so fervent that I had become blind to the pain? I was always meant to fall.

Deception by Murderous__Intention

I'll admit the last few years I've been through the wringer - and the blows just won't stop coming. First there is all the family drama, and then there's a war (or, perhaps the war is the biggest issue at the moment?). Irregardless, I've finally decided what I wish to do with my life. I'm going to kill my father. Even if it's the last thing I do. And no matter if there's a pretty solider on the opposite side of the war trying to get in my way (or more accurately - my pants). Falling in love is certainly not a part of the plan.

Tidal Wave (Luke Castellan) by Phoenix_Ninja_3

When I was young, I was always told that everyone loved a tragic Greek love story. Orpheus and Eurydice. Apollo and Hyacinth. Hero and Leander. Achilles and Patroclus. I had asked my mother why so many of those stories didn't have happy endings. She just gave me a grim smile and told me how the world of the gods was tricky. There was a lot about it that I didn't understand yet. That was 13 years ago. I think I understand it now.

Pure Demise by NoviSaluja

"My God, how stupid you are Ana. How can you even think about it. I am sure your stupidity is gonna ruin you one day" Taylor yelled. How can you ruin someone who is already ruined I said barely holding back my tears. It started two years back when I was nothing but a foolish teenager who thought love is a feeling inexpressible...oh so pure and considered friendship above all relations. It all started with the same yelling of my best friend screaming at me....at how lame I am. Innocence is what Ana cherished the most but when someone who is close to her just snatches it away, will she be able to survive it or will it lead to her own destruction. This is my first own written story after being a fan of romance fictions. Stay during my journey to find out what happens next.

The Fall of Icarus (Book 1 in the Apollo series) by Eileos

"The wind in his hair felt nice. It was cooling against the sun and wax that had been burning his back. It reminded him of every moment he sat alone on the window ledge of Minos' tower, praying for some kind of deliverance. Yet, it also reminded him of every moment he sat on the window ledge next to Apollo; he remembered the feeling of Apollo's soft fingers running through his hair, he could remember the feeling of his head against Apollo's chest, listening to his heartbeat. In those moments, he almost felt human." * For a long time, Icarus thought he was alone. Until one night, the world showed him he wasn't. #1st place in the Hip Generation Awards #2nd place in the lgbt category of the Creator's Choice Awards 2020 #1st place in the Atlas Awards 2021 LGBTQ+ category

Apollo's Eclipse - a PJO halfblood story by I_Am_Iron_Man12

I'm a son of Apollo. The best one, in fact. When you have light and solar manipulation, it's hard to fail in life. So explain: why do I keep doing exactly that? Find out now in my long, painful yet extremely enjoyable autobiography about how I snuck on to a quest and end up saving the world as we know it. All whilst being overconfident to an impressive scale. From committing war crimes, to annihilating ancient races, I've nearly been cancelled from Olympian heritage about seventeen times. Speaking of cancelled, I do not own the rights to any of the characters seen in the Riordanverse.

Shadows by LAKirkegaard

Some things you just can't avoid, like falling in love. As much as you try to avoid, or search for it, it always seems to find you, or elude you. It seemed to find me every corner I turned, and I always tried to avoid it but alas, for some unknown reason, it found me. I retell my story in this writing, my story of love, deceit, power, and loss. Would you join me if I told you I could give you anything? Even love? Tell me what you need and I will grant you what you wish for. But before I do, will you join me in the retelling of this story? And if you will join me, then watch, carefully, the Shadows.

INFINITY...? 1-the tragedy by dreamer7418

people often ask me how love feels like, i could simply answer them that the definition of love is different for everyone, not just for different stories but also for two people falling for each other, the perspectives for love can be so different then one another. "infinity...? - the tragedy" is a romantic roller coaster revolving around the tragedies that happened between two young birds that unwillingly fell for each other the moment their eyes locked. since then, they've laughed together, loved together, broke all the rules together, dreamed together but will they end up together? is this going to fade with growth and realization or is it going to be INFINITY...?

Mature Decedre by cosmic_lattes

|𝟏𝟗𝐱 𝐅𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄𝐃| Here lies the tragedy of 𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐃𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐍𝐀. A young woman with a heart of gold and eyes as red as blood. Cursed with the Midas Touch and destined to die beneath the Phrygian sun. She is a monster. An outcast. She is made to endure. But when a foreign goddess arrives swords clash and words are traded. The blue deity shakes the very core of Desdemona's foundation and calls into question her entire upbringing as well as her fate to die on her eighteenth birthday. For the first time in a long time, Desdemona has a choice. Will she play the role her past lives were forced to endure? Or will she shed her heart of purity to take back the life that was stolen from her?

EPIC: The Musical ~ The Repentance Saga by XannVe

Odysseus told me I wasn't allowed to leave the ship, to not set foot on the lands of the Underworld, but I couldn't help it. It was just laying there, glistening under the light of the glowing souls, and it seemed to be calling my name. "I'll be right back," I mumbled to no one in particular, before climbing out of the ship onto the cold plateau. Every step I took closer to it, its pull became stronger. I reached for it, my fingertips nearly touching the cold metal hilt of the glowing sword, when a vaguely familiar voice called my name. -=~=- She knew that sneaking onto a ship of the king's fleet was as dangerous as a mere mortal challenging Zeus to a battle. But she longed for adventure, dreamt of a life where she could waltz with death, hoped to one day feel alive. But then the crew found her, and the moment the captain laid eyes upon her, she knew her life had changed forever.

Fates, Furies and Freckles(Watty Awards 2013) by toogoodtobe

"Ever played dominoes? Personally I'm no good at it. I have no patience whatsoever. But let's say you set up like fifty dominoes. If someone came along after you'd knocked them all over, they probably wouldn't be able to see the first domino if they were standing near the last domino. They'd have to backtrack to find the domino that started it all. The one that began the chain reaction. It happens in life just like that. One day, you'll find yourself somewhere looking down at a pile of knocked over dominoes. And you have to backtrack in your mind to find that first domino-that first moment that changed everything. You didn't know that day would change your life at the time-it might've seemed completely normal. But looking back on it, it's unmistakable. Looking back on my life so far, I can safely say that September 9th was my first domino."

Deception

I'll admit the last few years I've been through the wringer - and the blows just won't stop coming. First there is all the family drama, and then there's a war (or, perhaps the war is the biggest issue at the moment?). Irregardless, I've finally decided what I wish to do with my life. I'm going to kill my father. Even if it's the last thing I do. And no matter if there's a pretty solider on the opposite side of the war trying to get in my way (or more accurately - my pants).
