Medusa's Daughter

Deanna Maynard Fantasy

We all know the story of Medusa. A winged priestess in Athenas temple. Known for her beauty. Beauty that captured the eyes of Poseidon. Athena was angry at the affair happening in her temple and cursed Medusa by taking away her looks and cursing any man that looked her in the eyes by turning them to stone. When Perseus decapitated her for the use of her eyes, two sons sprouted from her blood. One, the winged horse known as Pegasus and the second, the winged boar known as Chrysaos. Both immortal beings meant to serve the Gods.....but what if there was a 3rd child born? One that was born into an egg. Fueled from the hate and anger Medusa had from the life of hers that was robbed. Inside this egg was a black winged woman. This woman was Medusas daughter...
better known as Ryha. With the memories of her mother playing on repeat in her dreams, Ryha hated the God's and what they had done to her. Even her own father. Who didn't even know of her existence. They had no knowledge of her lineage....or powers and she aimed to keep it that way. To live life under the radar.
Another reject, escaping the eyes of the God's was known as Xander. The son of Hades has lived amongst the mortals most of his life. Worried how Hades would react to a successor....his only son. Persephone hid him amongst the mortals until she felt Hades was in a place to accept him.
Both with a hate for the God's, they come together when a strange source of evil starts to flood the land they've called home for so long. Fighting it would expose them to the God's they hide from. Leaving it be would mean the end of the human race.
A story of passion and survival, read along to see what happens when these two face the God's they hate most and learn how to fight an evil that was long forgotten
