Zelus (Perseus Reimagined) (BXB)
We all know the legendary tale of Perseus-the demigod, son of Zeus, and slayer of Medusa, the half-snake, half-human Gorgon. But what if I told you the story of Perseus isn't what you think? What if he didn't kill Medusa, marry Andromeda, or save her city from the Kraken? What if Perseus had a male lover from our time, the twenty-first century? Jonathan Hank, a troubled young man, can't seem to catch a break. His home is filled with misery, especially from his alcoholic father. He would've taken his own life if not for Alexander, his deceased boyfriend, who showed him that life has its bright moments. After a devastating incident at his younger sister Valerie's birthday party, Jonathan's father takes something precious from him-something that keeps the memory of Alexander alive. This loss drives Jonathan to a fateful encounter with a strange man, or perhaps something else entirely-an entity offering him a wish. A wish he never imagined he'd get, one he's longed for even before meeting Alexander. But is this stranger human? Or is there something darker at play?Complete
She who sees me
They called her a monster. They never saw her break. After centuries of silence, Medusa lives alone in a forest of stone-haunted by gods, hunted by men, and burdened by a curse that turns love into ash. Her name, once sacred, is now a warning whispered in fear. But everything begins to change the day a blind witch named Nyxara steps into her world. Nyxara has survived exile, rejection, and a magic that heals as easily as it kills. She was cast out for being too dangerous, too different, too queer-and yet, the goddess Selene gave her a name, a purpose, and a vision: Find the Gorgon. Teach her she is not broken. As Medusa and Nyxara grow closer, so do the eyes of the gods. Selene watches with quiet pride. Athena watches with unraveling fury. And Medusa must decide if she can rewrite her story-not as a monster, but as a woman who survived the divine and still dared to love. A story of myth reclaimed, trauma unbound, and love powerful enough to turn stone into flesh again. DISCLAIMER: the story of Medusa that we all know and love is not from Greek mythology. This book is not inspired by Greek mythology. It is inspired by the poet Ovid that made a book named metamorphosis in the Roman mythology which told the tale of Medusa where she was born a human died of Gorgon please do not confuse the two. In the Greek mythology Medusa was born in Gorgon died of Gorgon she was part of the three sisters born to a sea deity she had no background nothing she was only known for having snakes for hair. In Roman mythology the poet Ovid dove in into her story with his own imagination which is a big part of the reason why she is always shown as a monster and not a survivor please remember that.
