Three women. Three divinities hidden behind mortal faces. Each carries a burden older than time itself-loneliness, wisdom, and untamed freedom.
Bound not by temples or thrones but by the quiet ache of being unseen, they find unexpected companionship in mortals who answer when no one else will.
The Maidens is a collection of sapphic short stories retelling the lives of forgotten goddesses, reimagined through love, longing, and the quiet defiance of being chosen.

Death of the Ghost
In a realm where love blooms like a rose in a graveyard, their souls were cursed to meet and break. A goddess reborn. A demon god undone. He has watched her die in many lifetimes, each ending more brutal than the last, all because of a curse he cannot break - and a love he was cursed to never forget. But when the world fractures and destiny shifts, the woman he saves is not the goddess he remembers. None of her predecessors were, yet she too was sentenced to death by capricious fate. In a land of gods and monsters, where memory twists and fate is a deadly weapon, death may be the only escape.
Fracture of the First Light
Three gods. One prophecy. A bond destined to break. Before they ruled the heavens, before they were etched into mortal myth, they were simply Hades, Zeus, and Poseidon-three souls clinging to each other in a realm too vast to hold them. But love between gods is not without consequence. And when a divine child speaks a truth too painful to hold, their world begins to unravel. This is not a tale of heroes. It's the story of what came before the fall.Complete
