Seventeen year old Helena works for the most paranormal of all the detective agencies in Olympia: Three Fates Private Eye. When Penny Weaver's husband and his expensive yacht goes missing somewhere in the Aegean, Helena and her overly hot co-worker Jace are sent there to find out what happened to the man. A paid island vacation in the Mediterranean with the best-looking guy in either the mortal or divine realms sounds great, but there's the minor detail that the island is run by a coven-building divine sorceress. If that weren't dangerous enough, Helena discovers that Hera is holding an Olympic-sized grudge against her for-you know-existing. Turns out that even in this day and age, Hera still takes out her anger over Zeus's infidelities on his offspring. It's enough to make a girl want to just shift into a dragon and fry the lot. Fortunately, Helena's half-brother Hermes has a few tricks up his sleeve, and he seems to be on Helena and Jace's side, at least for now. Between juggling her divine family, searching for her missing mortal mom, and trying to not notice how attracted she is to Jace, Helena's got a heavy workload ahead of her. If she's not lucky, it's not just the client or even her life she'll lose. She'll be out of a job.

These are the first few chapters (for now) of the book. It's my current (Aug & Sept 2018) WIP.

When Night Ate The Sun by InkandBone
18 parts Ongoing
[New Chapters Monthly] A Cursed Devourerer. A King of Light. One Destined for Salvation, The Other Sacrifice. *** Helena is the last of her kind, born to an immortal race of beings. Her Ilk was conceived from the Harmonious Union of the first god and goddess, Mother Void and Father Life. Born from Chaos, the Harmonious could consume the flesh of gods. Painted as shape-shifting monsters of both creation and destruction, the Harmonious were said to have wrought destruction through all Realms of Reality. Fearing all of creation's destruction, the youngest twelve gods and goddesses betrayed the Mother and Father. In an act that spilled blood from the stars, every last child of the Harmonious Union was slaughtered. Her spirit now captured and enslaved by the White Pantheon, Helena knows existence only by what it lacks. Starving, exhausted, and formless; Helena is devoid of life. The gods ignore her prayers; Mother is silent to her begging. Centuries pass in torment until the appearance of a mysterious and powerful deity rips her away from formless darkness. The being claims the title Lord of the Black, and though he appears as a man, it soon becomes clear he is no servant of the Twelve. As time progresses, the undeniable pull of attraction and fate continues to lure Helena toward Lord Black. Even though they can't seem to go five minutes without fighting, affection begins to bloom inside Helena's rugged and broken soul. Peace is elusive, however, as the past quickly begins to unravel its twisted roots. An old enemy rears his many heads, threatening the delicate threads of life Helena has just begun to weave. Lies, religious corruption, and the truth about Lord Black's origins begin to dig twisted vines into the blossoming love between them. The struggle of overcoming her nature threatens to undo all that Helena has been gifted. And her very existence promises death for creatures she has learned to love.

36 parts Complete
[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.

Priscilla Sum

33 parts Complete

Priscilla is just an average college student with an average life. Adopted at a young age by a wealthy "power couple" consisting of a museum curator and a real estate magnate, she's managed to keep a level head, and not make a big deal about herself. Archaeology is a passion of hers, so when a visiting group offers the once-in-a-lifetime chance to spend a week at a real dig site, off the coast of Greece, Priscilla seizes the opportunity to pursue what she enjoys. Then... Disaster strikes. Priscilla wanted to believe that this was her Fate, but there seems to be other forces conspiring against her. The company organizing the dig is rumored to be engaged in some shady activity, her best friend since grade school reveals that he's slowly dying of a terminal disease, and most dramatic of all, her parents vanish overnight, leaving behind a letter telling her the truth: They are gods, hiding in the guise of mortals so that a very powerful enemy--a demon they've been fighting for millennia--won't discover the hiding place of their divine power: The very island Priscilla will be visiting soon. Is the archaeological group in league with the demon, or intent on discovering the hiding place first in order to stop him? Can she and her classmates find the hidden temple themselves? Will the demon come after her next?
