description: Dear AuthorMy mother looked at my eyes in the mirror  one last time in a lifetime of never meeting my gaze never letting me look directly at her face. The snakes of her hair hung limply unmoving. She had removed her veil for this last visit but lay turned away.Youre not a Gorgon my boy. Not even half. But when I die  beware. Power doesnt disappear it changes and moves. Be careful.Five years ago and I thought by now I was safe. I thought it had passed me by. Until today when the two men I care for invited me home for the night. Until I kissed them and warm flesh turned to stone under my lips. What have I done? What am I? And how the hell can I fix this?This story was written as a part of the M/M Romance Group's Love is Always Write event.
