In future years to come, humans live their life based on the Greek god they align with. If they do match, they are Elite, and sent to live with their fellow chosen ones in palaces built for gods.
If they aren't, they are banished from any kingdom and resign as a slave for the Masters. They are known as the Ordinary.
Calliope, named after the muse of epic poetry and nicknamed Cal, has always lived life as an Elite.
While Atlas, named after the god who held up the heavens, was an Ordinary, sent to live with Master Athena.
When the two paths cross unexpectedly, something blooms that will devastate the Masters if they find out. Anything could damage the system, and it may just be the people they'd least expect that end it all.

To Search For Flowers (Apollo X Hyacinthus) (Hermes X Crocus)
We've all heard of the two tales of heartbreak. Similar, but never the same. Hyacinthus. Crocus. Both turned into flowers. Both beautiful souls crushed by fate-or, well, smacked by it. (Discus, meet skull.) But what happens when fate gets bored of the ancient world... and revives them in a new one? Where discus evolved into frisbees, Olympus has Wi-Fi, and the gods still haven't figured out how to mind their own business. Reborn as Kalliste and Asiminia, the two demigoddesses struggle to fit into a world that moves too fast, laughs too loud, and doesn't believe in gods anymore. Still, each night they remember-the sun's warmth, the laughter of a trickster, and the heartbreak that made them flowers. Meanwhile, up on Olympus, two gods are losing their divine minds. Apollo's radiant calm? Gone. Hermes' chill? Evaporated. Because apparently, everyone knew about the girls' reincarnation-except them. And so begins the chaos. Do the gods find them? Do the flowers bloom again? Or will fate play its favorite game one last time-only to break every heart, mortal and divine -☀️🪻🪽⚘️-
Fingers stained black
Many forget that the goddess of love was born from the raging sea, but she would do anything to protect her daughter. Adora was Aphrodite's last daughter. Her mother kept her hidden. But, her mother isn't the only one who can keep a secret, especially in a world where your role in society is everything. For there was a prophecy long before she was born: 'Aphrodite's last child would be the one to take the throne, Her paternity unknown. They would carve her face and never forget, for she would be the most beautiful that they had met Cursed for the same fate as her mother Forced to leave her love for another The only way she shall break this curse is if she defeats the first' "Looks like the princess doesn't need saving after all." He says, quietly enough that no one else would hear, as he draws his hand away from my arm. I glare back at him. "Maybe she never did," I walk away, not sparing a single glance back, no matter how much my body was begging me to. I fuss over my hair, pouting as I run my fingers through it to put it back into place. *A warning note* I am not an expert on Greek Mythology, but it interests me greatly. Please excuse any inaccuracies in the book, but if there are any please do message or comment it and I will see if I can change it without making such a huge difference to the plot. Also, my main character is autistic and the experience will be different for everyone. I have tried my hardest to put down on paper how I feel and how I believe others see me. So, please be respectful about the decisions my characters make as I have chosen to give them many different types of neurodivergent brains. I have tried my best to represent these in the most accurate light whilst not romanticising them.Complete
The Labyrinth Through Camelot | {COMPLETED}
"So if we don't get there soon, we lose, right? We lose Merlin and Hera will end the world?" "Camelot will end, Greece will end... Even your own world will be gone." 'You knights are our only hope.' Luna's signing really sold it. If they didn't stop Hera soon, the whole world would end. "Alright. What do we have to do?" ********** As far as the world knows, Camelot and ancient Greece never conflicted. Never associated, never spoke, never interacted. In fact, it would be safe to say that the two worlds didn't even exist at the same time. Until they do. An untold story that changes every story you've ever known. The Knights of Camelot rule as kings and queens, the first since the death of the legendary King Arthur. Sharing the duties among the six of them and under the guidance of the warlock, Merlin, these teenagers travel between Camelot and the modern world, the first time travelers, to protect the land they've adopted as their own. The Goddlets are used to living in a world of their own. As the children of the gods, they are used to getting away with whatever they want. Not used to many changes in their quiet world, they aren't prepared for what comes next. When the Knights and the Goddlets are called together on a quest to save Merlin from the clutches of Hera, the queen of the Greek gods, two very different worlds collide in a race against the clock to save the world. With limited time at their hands and everything they know and love at stake, the Knights and the Goddlets team up to put an end to Hera's destructive reign. The worlds of Camelot and ancient Greece collide in this action-packed book. Classic characters meet new faces in a complete retelling of universes people both know and love. {Entered in the Open Novella Contest under prompt 83: "This assignment requires us to act like adults.

Set Me As A Seal ✓
A time-traveling god. A mortal stuck in Ancient Greece. They have always been able to hear each other's thoughts, across time and space; the only problem is, they were never supposed to meet. Until they did. And it unravelled the balance of everything. ₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪ The immortal Greek god Evgenis' only job is to travel through time, making sure humanity stays on its course. This is what he was born to do. He was meant to be machine-like, cold, and detached from humanity - ready to invoke bloodshed as needed. His ability to follow through with his duty, however, is disrupted when he forms a mysterious internal bond with a mortal. You see, the Goddess of Love had a different idea for her son's future. Seeing the cruelty of the gods around her, she formed the unborn Evgenis with a secret gift: an eternal inner bond with a mortal. She chose Tharos - named for the strength of his heart - an Ancient Greek villager living an unassuming, simple life. This connection, she prayed, would keep Evgenis' moral compass and conscience strong. He would not end up like the others. No one could anticipate, though, just how powerful and disruptive this bond would grow to be. ------------------------------------------ "Set me as a seal upon your heart... for love is as strong as death." - Song of Solomon, 6:8 ------------------------------------------Complete

Honeyed Storm: The Epic of (Name)"
In the age of heroes, gods, and war, the world forgot her name. Born under a bleeding moon, (Name) was the divine child of Nyx, goddess of night, and Aether, god of upper air and light-an impossible union never meant to happen. To hide the shame of their union, the gods misplaced her thread in the Loom of Fate. She was cast down to the mortal world, raised in the shadows as a girl with eyes like galaxies and power she never asked for. But fate doesn't forget. It waits. It obsesses. As a young woman, she marries Odysseus and Penelope in secret-three hearts bound in a rare and sacred union. When war calls Odysseus to Troy, (Name) defies every expectation and joins him, setting sail as his equal, his protector, and unknowingly, the object of everyone's unraveling. On this journey, (Name) becomes the eye of a storm she never meant to summon: • Gods fall in love with her. And not gently. • Demigods chase her like moths to divine flame. • Monsters let her live when they should have killed. • Penelope, back in Ithaca, becomes possessive and wrathful in her longing. • Odysseus loses battles from jealousy alone, afraid someone will touch what's his. Even the world itself seems to shift toward her: Islands tilt. Winds wail. The stars blink in rhythm with her breath. As the crew dwindles-not from war, but from obsession-fueled madness-(Name) begins to uncover the truth: The gods are not simply in love. They are desperate. The Loom of Fate has started unraveling because her misplaced thread has warped destiny itself. If she doesn't confront her origins... If she doesn't choose what she wants... The world may rip itself apart trying to possess her.Complete

The God-Emperor the Ten Year War
(A rewrite of the King of the Gods the Titanomachy) I remember the life I lived before this one-a life of fleeting mortality, ignorance, and helplessness. But that life ended, and in its place, I was reborn-not as a man, but as Hades, eldest son of Cronus, King of Naziru, First Throne of the Triarchs, Supreme Chief, All-Father of the gods... the architect of destiny itself. I was given a second chance to rewrite the past, to bend time and power to my will, for the Great Devourer comes-a force that will consume everything I love, every world, every life. And I will not fail. I will master all pantheons, forge empires from the bones of gods, and carve my name into history so absolute that even eternity will bend to my design. I am Hades. I am the king of all thrones, the inheritor of every divine secret, the master of life, death, and fate. The world may tremble at the shadow of my ambition, but it is my world to protect-and my enemies, even gods, will learn that I am no mere son of Cronus. I am its savior, its conqueror, and its last hope. #ReincarnationFantasy #ModernGods #MythologyReimagined #GreekMythology #TimeTravelFantasy #DarkAcademiaMythos #GodRebirth #EpicFantasy #PoliticalIntrigue #DivineDrama #FoundFamily #ProphecyAndFate #FromMortalToGod #HadesPOV #RebirthOfTheOlympians
