EPIC: A New Dawn
"You didn't just run from your past... you ran straight into my future." In the golden days following Odysseus's return to Ithaca, peace finally blankets the kingdom. The royal family-Odysseus, Penelope, and their son Telemachus-step into a new life, one no longer defined by war or waiting. But fate, as always, has other plans. Y/N, a strong-willed young noblewoman, is being forced into marriage with a man she does not love-a stranger who won't take no for an answer. When no one listens, she does the only thing she can: she runs. Deep into the forest, deep into the unknown... and straight into the arms of the prince of Ithaca. One look, and everything changes. As Telemachus and Y/N fall hard and fast, gods take notice. Hermes grins like a brother. Athena approves like a guardian. Odysseus trains her in the art of the bow, and Penelope-reluctantly-welcomes her as a daughter. But the past doesn't vanish so easily, and when her old life comes crashing into her new one, the royal family must decide where their loyalties lie. With stolen kisses, divine mischief, and battles of heart and blade, EPIC: A New Dawn is a story of freedom, found family, and a love written in the stars.Complete

Fated Tides
An EPIC: The Musical-inspired Odyssey of Love, Gods, and Destiny She was a daughter of the sea, beauty woven by fate-and cursed by a jealous goddess. When her ship was torn apart by an unnatural storm, Y/N lost everything. Stranded on an unmarked island, her only crime was a beauty so radiant it stirred Aphrodite's wrath. Alone, hunted by the gods, she had all but given up hope-until a weary king named Odysseus stumbled upon her shores. He saw her-not just her beauty, but her fear, her strength, her silence-and took her with him on the final leg of his journey home. But Ithaca is no longer a place of peace. Suitors infest the palace, and the kingdom is on the brink of ruin. Y/N joins Odysseus in the fight to reclaim his throne, her dagger as sharp as the grief she still carries. When the war ends, and she stands before the queen and the prince of Ithaca-Telemachus-something shifts. One glance. One breath. One heartbeat. And everything changes. As the son of a hero and the girl cursed by a goddess are drawn together, love blooms quietly in the cracks of chaos. But the gods are not done with her. Aphrodite does not forget. And love, no matter how pure, must prove itself against the will of Olympus. In a world ruled by gods and glory, can love survive the tide of fate? Or will a jealous goddess claim the girl the sea could not drown?Complete

Only an infant when her father left for the Trojan War, she remained in Ithaca with her mother and brother, anxiously awaiting his return.

Echoes of Ithaca
"You must behave," her brother warned, "or you'll ruin everything." Dragged to Ithaca by her cruel brother Antinous, Y/N is forced to live among the suitors vying for Queen Penelope's hand. Unseen, unheard, and constantly hurt, she survives in silence-until a quiet act of kindness begins to unravel the chains around her heart. In the shadows of the great halls, a bond begins to form between Y/N and Telemachus, the prince of Ithaca-one built not on grand speeches, but on soft glances and secret conversations. With the guidance of Penelope and the silent watch of Athena, Y/N finds strength. Yet bruises still bloom, and secrets still fester in the corners of the palace. But when a single moment of violence shatters the lies holding everything together, love and fury ignite in equal measure. And as Telemachus sets out across the sea to find his father, Y/N is left to protect the queen-and herself-from the growing threat within. When Odysseus finally returns, blood will be spilled, truths revealed, and a new kind of family will rise from the ashes of betrayal. This is the story of a girl who was meant to stay quiet-and the prince who heard her anyway.Complete
Threads of Ithaca
"When Myth Falls Into the Modern World, Love Is the Bridge That Endures Time." After years of war and peace, Telemachus, son of Odysseus and prince of Ithaca, finds himself ripped from his ancient world and cast into the chaos of the modern age-alone, lost, and unseen. As he stumbles through towering cities, strange customs, and glowing machines, he feels more like a ghost than a hero. Until he sees her. Y/N, a high school girl just trying to survive her own battles, is caught in the grip of cruelty when a group of boys corner her outside school. When Telemachus steps in, a single moment sparks a connection that neither time nor fate could have prepared them for. Thrown together by chance, they find healing in each other-sharing laughter, kisses under moonlight, and building a life in the unlikeliest of places. But love, like destiny, has its own course. When a portal back to Ithaca opens, Telemachus must choose between two worlds. Yet he does not choose alone. Now with Y/N carrying their unborn child, they return to the land of gods and kings, where family, loyalty, and honor await-and not all welcome them with open arms. But one thing is certain: This is no longer the story of a prince lost in time. This is the story of a legend reborn-for love, for family, for a future he never dreamed possible.Complete
The heart of Ithaca
A Tale of Love, Loyalty, and Legacy For as long as they can remember, Y/N and Prince Telemachus have been inseparable. Through childhood adventures, whispered dreams, and the looming shadow of Odysseus' absence, they have always found solace in each other. But Ithaca is a kingdom under siege-not by war, but by the ruthless suitors vying for Queen Penelope's hand. As Telemachus struggles to prove himself worthy of his father's name, Y/N stands by his side, offering strength when he falters and courage when he doubts. She is his anchor, his protector, his heart. Yet, as the tides of fate shift, their bond is tested in ways neither expected. When Telemachus leaves in search of answers and returns a changed man, unspoken feelings threaten to unravel everything they have built. And when Ithaca's throne is finally reclaimed, they must decide-will they remain as they always were, or will they take the leap into something more? With Penelope watching from the sidelines-secretly their biggest supporter-their journey is one of love forged in hardship, devotion that defies expectation, and a future written in the stars. This is the story of Telemachus and Y/N. The story of two hearts, bound by fate, finding their way home.Complete

But as she grows closer to Telemachus, she begins to wonder-was she brought here for a reason? And if she was, will she ever find her way home?Complete
