There's something strange about Laila Rose. 

She use to be a normal girl. One who had a boyfriend and a best friend who she loved dearly. One who's biggest worry was graduating high school. That all changed the night she was gifted with the powers of not one, but two ancient gods. 

Now she must live at an Academy for the Divine along with other powerful demigods. Just when Laila begins to settle into her new life -and possibly a relationship with not one but two devilishly handsome demigods- chaos strikes. Caught in the middle of mysterious murders, a dangerous love triangle and the gods' wrath, Laila struggles to know who she can trust and who just might be out to get her.

Persephone Incarnate [Wattpad Prize 2014] | ✔️ by wishuponajinni

[COMPLETED - ONLY MINORLY EDITED] ******************************************************** Greek myths - true or false? They should be false, and to 16-year-old Sophie Claire, it's never crossed her mind that they aren't. Until one day in History class when her teacher spends a day on Greek mythology and something strange starts happening - her friends and classmates begin to tell myths about certain Greek deities with frightening precision. And for some reason, she's began to feel a certain affinity for Persephone, the Greek maiden who was kidnapped by Hades, the Lord of the Underworld, and forced into a marriage with him. This isn't some coincidence or freak dream, she later finds out from a host of strange individuals who claim they're from Olympus, the grandoise home of the gods themselves. She is actually a modern reincarnation of the goddess Persephone, and she's not the only one. A few of her classmates also happen to represent the gods and goddesses from popular Greek myths, and the fact that all of them are present means that something monumental is about to happen. Something like being the girl to change Persephone's future, to break the cycle of kidnapper and victim - all by passing a trial. It won't be simple, she knows, and she's not quite that eager to take it up, but from the moment she found out that she was Persephone, there was no way to back out. She should've known, however, that dealing with all powerful, immortal deities wasn't going to be easy. They've got a few secrets and personality flaws up their sleeves, and they could be deadly. More than deadly - murderous.

Echoes of Olympus by kyenna63

Aurelia never knew her past, her family, or the truth about who she was. Awakening on Olympus with fragmented memories and whispers of a prophecy, she finds herself thrust into a world of gods, power, and ancient grudges. As she navigates fragile alliances and growing bonds with those who hold divine power, Aurelia uncovers pieces of her forgotten identity-along with the devastating role she is destined to play in the war against a formidable enemy. With secrets lurking in every shadow and betrayal closer than she ever imagined, Aurelia must decide who she can trust, and what she's willing to sacrifice to protect the ones she loves. But time is running out, and the gods' enemies have plans that will shake the heavens and earth alike. In a battle where even the gods are vulnerable, one question remains: will Aurelia rise, or will her fate be her undoing? {This story and its plot, along with all fictional characters, are original creations and belong to me.

Being the daughter of Goddess Artemis and of a mortal in the 21st Century kind of makes a girl lonely. But with loneliness comes determination to be the best demigod out there. Rostris lives in Foloi Oak Forest alone but grew up with Amposa, a woman centaur whenever her mother wasn't around. Rostris would hunt and train everyday with her bow and arrow with her pet Laelap, a Greek mythological dog who never failed to catch what she was hunting. Rostris was abandoned at birth by her mortal father so she has no idea who he is or his family. Her mother Artemis' side up in Mount Olympus never made contact with Rostris. So when Zeus, her grandfather decides to show up asking for help, she definitely didn't appreciate it. But, she ends up taking on the quest presented to her to hunt a dryad named Ekho. Dryads are female nymphs that inhabit forests and trees. Along the way with the help of Laelap and a runaway Titan, Rostris comes along life-threatening challenges like being close to Ekho but then missing her, dealing with Hera, Zeus's wife, that is trying to kill Ekho out of jealousy because Zeus likes to consort with nymphs and will stop at nothing to do it, and also being targeted by Ekho's daughter Lynx, who can make spells and will stop at nothing to kill Rostris. But what the real test is that is presented to Rostris is trust. Trusting herself and others because trust can go a long way.
