Pitch Madness # B-7 YA Fantasy with Myth: VENOM'S CURSE


# B-7: YA Fantasy with Myth: VENOM'S CURSE

Loka has died. Again. When her next reincarnation opens a third eye into the mythical Hindu realm, she discovers she's a Goddess and someone wants to steal her power, killing her for good this time.

“Damn it,” I said through clenched teeth. “Not again!

My eyes cracked open to reveal a saffron infused, gothic room with high vaulted ceilings. Thick heavy banners of emerald, scarlet, and cobalt hung, brushing whisper-soft, against the marble floor. The ivory stone was bitterly cold and unyielding against my cheek. It was polished to a perfect mirrored gloss, reflecting the image of the room upside down, like a crystal lake.

“Hello, Loka,” a gravel and husk voice said. “What a surprise.”

“No need to rub it in.” I hauled myself to my feet in an ungainly dance of vertigo. I was glad I'd died today when I was wearing under-wear. Yesterday would've been rather embarrassing, with the marble floor bouncing back my daisy knickers hidden beneath my high-lighter pink mini-skirt.

I glared at the three Gods in front of me, and all memories of my past lives flooded back.

  1. Very funny, but also very interesting.
    I'm not at all educated in such religion, so I know not the references, but I like the concept of the story as a whole.
