    Summary

    Antinous turned around and, by some curse, saw Telemachus laying on the stone. After a moment Antinous moved towards the body. It was not as mangled as he hopped, but anything was better than nothing. The boy was lying on his stomach, eyes closed and mouth open. Antinous crouched down next to him to assess the damage. There was blood on his chiton, but not much. It didn’t have time to soak in yet. There was blood running down his face too, likely a head injury. It was a nice colour against the boy’s pale skin.

    He turned Telemachus to face him. He brushed his bangs out of his face. The moonlight shone over those soft, feminine features Antinous had always mocked the prince for. Plump cheeks, full lips, and a straight nose just like his mother. The blood he had noticed before shimmered a deep crimson as it poured from the prince’s eyes. Soft, round eyes that always had a hint of curiosity in them.

    Eyes that were now gone.

    Summary

    The shock stings more than the slap itself, but his hand still flinches to his face. His mother’s hand trembles mid-air, but her voice is level. “I never want to hear you say that again. Do you hear me?”

    “Mom,” he says, horrified.

     

    “Do you hear me, Telemachus?”

    Summary

    "Just one bite and they could find out if they were compatible with him...

    Most betas and omegas felt sorry for alphas’ unfortunate circumstances. Unfortunately for the alphas that so rudely invaded his home, Telemachus didn't care if they were compatible because all had proven to be the bane of his existence."

    Or, Omegaverse AU where potential mates bite near someone’s neck to see if they are compatible. Willingly biting the other will create a mating bond. Sadly, unless mated, alphas go feral for periods until they lose all sense of self, needing to be put down.

    The suitors wait for the Queen of Ithaca's bond mark to disappear, however they're getting restless. Meanwhile, Telemachus takes it upon himself as the only other royal omega to distract 108 men with the prospect of being his mate. None had succeeded until one alpha managed to leave their mark. Literally.

    After years of searching, Antinous had given up on finding a compatible mate. He doubted the Queen was any different, but he was willing to do unspeakable things for his self-interest. If everything went according to plan then the throne would be his and he wouldn't have to worry about whether the next time he went feral would be his last.

    Summary

    Troy’s war is over, king Odysseus is coming home after ten long years. Or that was supposed to happen. Odysseus of Ithaca is nowhere to be seen, his wife and son still waiting.

    In the air a lingering question, unspoken by the lips of the living, but asked by their hearts, witnesses of life still beating:

    When does a man become a monster?

    Telemachus is not sure of the answer himself, but unknowingly, he’ll live an odyssey of his own, next to the last person on earth he imagined. An old friend, or enemy should say? Dunno, it’s hard to categorize a man who’s actively trying to marry your mother.

    Sometimes, a little change of fate, is all the withered need to bloom at the first signs of Spring.
