Beyond the forest

This story is a fan fic/retelling of one of the Roman myths of Medusa but with a twist. It follows the storyline of Medusa being assaulted inside a sacred temple by Posiden, and cursed by Aphrodite. This is an LGBTQ+ book, a female-on-female romance, following the unlikely love story of a blind mortal who came seeking revenge, finding and falling in love with Medusa. The book contains strong language, mention of sexual assault, graphic imagery, same-sex relationships, violence, and gore. Please read with caution. *This story was inspired by a prompt circling TikTok, the concept is not my original idea, though the main character, Marigold, as well as her story and their love story together, are, minus some historically accurate details from the myth itself. With that, I hope you enjoy their tale.
