"Apart, they were lethal. Together, they were indestructible."
Lost in the human world, the only way Greek God Hermes can reach home is with the help of an unlikely guide: Asta; human, Eta, imperfect.
In a reality where Grecian power has reached its peak after the destructive end of World War VI and the world has been divided into seven parts, the Eta region is the poorest. Yet when Hermes finds himself in Eta with no guide to reach home, he has to push down his pride and ask an Eta for help.
And that Eta happened to be Asta, a fiercely enigmatic woman that is hell bent on breaking all his beliefs and all that he knows about the world.
And yet as the hours of time lengthen their vague companionship, Hermes is quick to realise that something is very wrong with everything. And maybe, just maybe, Asta was the answer to every single one of his questions.

They say gut feelings are your guardian angels, Ella Thomas will soon find out that hers was leading her to something she could never imagine existed. Hades has watched over Ella since the day she was born, he was her guardian angel from the depths of the underworld. For centuries he's waited, waited for someone to love. He vowed to himself to protect Ella and only watch from afar. She was so innocent and so human, he couldn't take that away from her. For 20 years he kept his promise, for 20 long and grueling years he watched from afar, until something happens, something that Hades can't ignore. He makes a hasty decision and leaves the underworld, heading to Earth where he knows she will be.

King of the Gods: The Titanomachy
Imagine this: You're just a college student, buried in mythology textbooks and caffeine, dreaming of becoming a world-class expert on ancient gods and forgotten legends. That was my life-simple, grounded, normal. Then I died. No warning, no grand exit. Just darkness. Game over. Or so I thought. Because next thing I know, I'm standing before her-Veritas. A cosmic being with eyes like galaxies and a voice that shakes the soul. She didn't ask. She didn't explain. She just chose me... and sent me back as Hades. Yes, that Hades-the Greek god of the Underworld. You'd think my mythology degree would give me an advantage. Spoiler: it didn't. The myths? Twisted. The stories? Half-true at best. And the gods? They're nothing like the sanitized tales we tell. They're ancient, powerful, and terrifyingly real. Now I'm a mortal soul trapped in a divine body, caught in a web of politics, monsters, forgotten laws, and secrets older than time. No guidebook. No second chances. Just me, trying to survive in a world where every mistake could spark a war. Think you know the gods? Trust me-you don't. Open the book. Step into my shadow. And see what it really means to be a god.Complete

Shadow of the Triple Goddess(Percy Jackson x Male Reader)
In a world ruled by gods and Olympians, Hecate-the goddess of magic and witchcraft-fell in love with a devoted mortal. From their union came Y/n, a boy unlike any other. She cherished him, wanting only the best for him, but the world didn't share her love. Labeled an outcast for being different, Y/n never fit in. He was sluggish and drained during the day yet bursting with energy under the moonlight. Schools rejected him, kids avoided him, but Y/n never minded-until loneliness crept in, whispering that maybe he did want friends after all. His life takes a turn when his father reveals the impossible truth: his mother is a goddess. Then, a strange man with goat legs shows up, telling Y/n he's a demigod and must leave for Camp Half-Blood. Just as he's beginning to adjust to this new world, another boy arrives-a boy tied to a prophecy that could change the fate of Olympus itself. Thrust into a whirlwind of monsters, magic, and ancient secrets, Y/n must navigate the chaos of demigod life while uncovering the true depths of his own power and his mother's legacy. Because being different? That might just be the key to saving them all. (Percy x Male reader)
