They say a single golden apple started the Trojan War, they're wrong.
The apple didn't create jealousy, pride, or ambition-it simply revealed what had always been lurking beneath the polished surface of gods and mortals alike.
After being cast aside by Olympus, Eris, the goddess of Discord, tells her side of the story with biting wit, dark humor, and ruthless honesty. As her simple "gift" unravels kingdoms and reshapes history, she watches immortal pride and human folly consume the world one choice at a time.
The Hunger of Eris is a dark mythological retelling of the events leading to the Trojan War, exploring the thin line between chaos and truth-and asking whether Eris was ever the villain, or merely the one who exposed the monsters everyone else refused to see.

TEXT COPYRIGHT © M. A. ™ 2018 ~~~~~ Suha Zaid never thought her senior year could get any better. Like a true champion, she had been able to balance between social life and her chances of going college (minus the Pre-Calculus of course), and had fought against her long-time bully Samantha Griols, who had abused her both verbally and physically since the eighth grade. When she was arranged to marry Adam Fatih, the "famous" nerd and soon-to-be valedictorian of her high school, she went berserk-- only to then find herself falling head over heels in love with him, regardless of the negative comments he threw her way.

Now that she has found him, she is determined to better understand him and never let him go. Adam Fatih hates his life. Spending hours over hours studying, smoking cigarettes, drinking, and committing misconducts is his specialty-- or so he thinks-- and he's determined to keep Suha away from him at all costs. Unfortunately for him, the more he pushes her away, the closer she gets, and the harder it becomes to let go. He's a live fragment of a shattered, broken past, and when his supposed parents forced him to marry Suha in hopes of changing him for the better, he was furious. How they had the audacity to involve his first love into the horrifying mess that is his life was beyond him, but he eventually agreed after long sessions of intense anger and aggravation. She's confident and now stronger than ever. He's broken and has no faith. She thinks he's mysterious, awkward, and intimidating. He thinks she's fierce, annoying, and stubborn as hell. What will happen when the man behind all Adam's problems reenters his life? Will secrets unfold? Will stronger bonds be made, or will they weaken and break? If put to the test, can love truly and inevitably conquer all? Read on to find out.

AASTHA: The Faith
She wasn't the weakest among them; She was the reason they never fell. --•--•--•--•--•--•--•-- She lost her mother. And with her... she lost the only home she ever knew. But death wasn't the end of the truth. It was only the beginning. Before taking her last breath, Aastha's mother reveals a secret buried for fifteen years - a family that was never supposed to return into their lives. The Rathore Brothers. Seven brothers. Powerful. Ruthless. Emotionless. Men feared by the world they rule from the shadows. A world stained with blood, power, betrayal, and secrets no one dares to uncover. And now... Aastha Rathore is a part of it. A girl who walked into their dark lives carrying nothing but grief in her eyes and silence in her heart. But fate has strange ways of bringing broken souls together. Maybe some connections are written long before people meet. Maybe destiny always finds its way back. And maybe faith isn't just about believing in God- maybe it's about believing that even after destruction, life can still give you a reason to stay. Slowly, walls begin to crack. Smiles start returning. Trust forms where only darkness existed. Yet something feels wrong. Too many unanswered questions. Too many half truths. Too many people hiding things they can never say aloud. Why was Aastha kept away for fifteen years? What really happened in the past? Why does every secret somehow connect back to her? Because behind this family lies a story far more dangerous than anyone realizes. A story where destiny plays cruel games. Where faith gets tested at every step. And where nothing is ever truly what it seems. Even Aastha. She looks soft. Fragile. Innocent enough to be destroyed by their world. But sometimes the quietest people carry the loudest storms inside them. And maybe... the girl searching for a reason to live is unknowingly the reason everything is about to fall apart. ~•°AASTHA: THE FAITH By: fairytale22
