The Gods Gave Me My Father's Wife

5 episodes · 2 free · checked October 26, 2026 · on Candy by October 6

A prince recognizes his father's new queen as the woman from his dreams, and a prophecy says it's no accident.

Before episode 1

In an ancient kingdom, King Evian has taken a new wife, Lysandra, and is eager to present her to his son. The prince has a problem he cannot mention: he has been sharing a bed with this woman night after night, in his dreams, and in person she feels exactly the same. An oracle is warning of a serpent in the royal marriage and the fall of the kingdom. At stake are a crown, a father's trust and a destiny the gods seem very keen to watch unfold.

The people in it

  • The prince: King Evian's son, haunted by vivid dreams of his new stepmother and torn between loyalty and desire.
  • Lysandra: The new queen, visited by Aphrodite, who married the king with the prince already in mind.
  • King Evian: A proud ruler who dismisses the oracle and has heard only half of what the gods intend.
  • The oracle: A seer hauled off by the guards for predicting the kingdom's ruin at a royal introduction.

The two free episodes

Episode 1Free, no account

First comes a dream: a woman urges him on, and he objects that she belongs to his father. Then court, where King Evian introduces his son to the new queen, Lysandra. The prince is stunned, because she is the woman he has been with in his sleep. The king finds it splendid that they will get along. An oracle interrupts with a warning: the prophecy is unfolding, a serpent has crept into the royal bed, and the kingdom's end will follow. The king calls it nonsense and has her dragged off. The prince wonders whether the warning means them. Lysandra cannot explain it, but presses him to admit he shared the dream, and he did. The episode ends on an urging to obey the gods and claim his father's wife.

Episode 2Free with a free account

Lysandra reveals that in her dreams he calls her Mother, which only deepens his confusion about why they keep meeting there. She is surprised he hasn't heard the full prophecy: Aphrodite herself came to her and revealed her destiny. Lysandra leads him to Aphrodite's chamber and explains that King Evian received only half of it from the oracle. The missing half says the heir will claim the royal bed and the queen, and then the crown. The prince realizes she married his father to get to him. She admits she wanted to find out whether the man in her visions existed. The doors are sealed by the gods, she notes, so perhaps they should give their divine audience a show.

Where the free run stops. Inside Aphrodite's sealed chamber, the free part ends with the prophecy fully revealed and Lysandra ready to fulfill it. Left open: whether the prince goes along, what King Evian does if he learns the rest, and whether the oracle's doom comes true.

What kind of show it is

Sword-and-sandal melodrama played completely straight, with oracles, goddesses and royal decrees. The talk is grand and the pace brisk, each scene adding a new layer of prophecy. Heat lives mostly in dream flashes and charged dialogue. Lysandra knows the script; the prince keeps catching up.
