The Queen's Curse by @euphyrys 
A Greek Mythology Story

Previously known as Through Golden Blood
•••

The Queen of the gods never imagined that this was the sort of life she was going to have. Every second of the day feels like an eternity for her. An eternity of hell. After all, she has to withstand all the pain over the years. Her family's hatred towards her. Zeus' endless betrayal and infidelity. They had labeled her as the bitter Queen, vindictive, and jealous wife.

None of them considered whatever she was going through. The constant inner battles were even worse than her extensive arguments with her husband.

How long till she had enough of all the suffering she endured?

How long will it take till she finally loses hope for her family and her husband?

She was tired of it all.

•••

The void temporarily connected with the Lord of the Underworld's domain together with evil spirits fleeing from chains that bound them, causing misery in the world above.

Now, the entire council and the rest of the deities are facing a new threat whilst encountering a tragedy that will change the course of events. 

It will be up to the king to save his queen from the clutches of their past as it is the fate of all the realms that rests in his hands.

"Even amid the hurricane with remorseless winds 
and lightning strikes of the sinister storm, 
my heart belonged to you."

•••

Pairing: Zeus/Hera

[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.

"I've told you, Hades, I can not become your mistress." she sadly told him. She had always lived in her mother's shadow, and if she followed Hades, she would once again be living in another's shadow. Even though she loved him, she did not think she could stomach it. "I do not want you to be my mistress, Persephone, I want you to be my queen," he confessed to her. She snapped her head up to meet his eyes, searching for any sign he wanted to take his words back, but there was no remorse. And just like that, she fell ever so slightly more in love with him. "Your queen?" she asked, she had to be sure. Strangely the word had slid off her tongue gracefully as if it had belonged there. "Yes, become my queen," he told her once again, taking back the step she had taken. "Rule besides me as the goddess of spring and the Underworld." The words don't seem to make sense in her mind. --- Further description in the book --- #1 - MYTH RETELLING (as of October 1st, 2021) #1 - GODDESS OF SPRING (as of Nov 23rd, 2021) #1 - HADES TOWN (as of Jan 13th, 2022) #1 - HADES AND PERSEPHONE (as of Feb 9th, 2022) #1 - GREEK MYTHOLOGY (as of March 29th, 2022) #1 - QUEEN OF THE UNDERWORLD (as of April 4th, 2022) #1 - PERSEPHONE AND HADES (as of April 20th, 2022) #1 - GOD OF THE UNDERWORLD (as of April 20th, 2022) #1 - KING OF THE UNDERWORLD (as of Dec 22, 2022) #2 - HECATE (as of Nov 4th, 2021) #2 - DEMETER (as of Jan 29th, 2022) #2 - KING AND QUEEN (as of Feb 21st, 2022) #2 - PERSEPHONE (as of Sep 20th, 2023) #3 - GREEK MYTH (as of May 6th, 2022) #4 - MYTH (as of April 21th, 2022) #4 - RETELLING (as of May 10th, 2022) #4 - UNDERWORLD (as of 26th, 2023) #6 - HADES (as of April 8th, 2022) #6 - DIVINE (as of May 6th, 2022) #41 - OLYMPIANS (as of Feb 9th, 2021) #55 - GREEK (as of May 8th, 2022) #61 - OLYMPUS (as of May 8th, 2022)

Book Description: In a realm where gods reign and mortals toil, Psyra, the radiant goddess of souls, walks a delicate path between the divine and the mortal. Born from light but weighed down by eternal loneliness, she is drawn into the intricate web of power, desire, and destiny that binds Olympus. As Psyra is courted by gods who seek her for their own ambitions-Zeus, consumed by obsession; Hades, a shadowed figure of mystery; and Apollo, a charming light that burns too bright-she must navigate a world of love, manipulation, and betrayal. While her bond to the mortal realm keeps her grounded, it is an invisible cord of fate pulling her toward both her destruction and salvation. But when Zeus devises a dangerous scheme to claim her, Psyra is forced to confront her deepest fears and the truth of her own strength. Caught between the storm of Zeus' desire and the quiet flame of Hades' affection, Psyra's journey will test her power, challenge her loyalty, and ultimately determine the fate of gods and mortals alike. In a world of golden light and shadowed secrets, can Psyra find freedom-and love-without losing herself? A story of passion, power, and destiny, Psyra's Journey is a mythological fantasy where the line between love and obsession blurs, and even gods are not immune to the pull of fate.
