Hey mate!
Here's your answer!
If you are asking for a Greek God story, then one famous story is Pandora's box...
Here is goes.....
Before we go any further, we must expel the myth that Pandora carried a box. In fact, it was a jar, or as the ancient Greeks would have referred to it: an urn.
Pandora was forged by the divine blacksmith Hephaestus. All the gods and goddesses showered her with gifts. She was a most desirable female. Then Zeus sent her as a wife to Epimitheus, the Hind-Sighted, giving her a sealed jar as dowry for the marriage. Pandora was instructed not to open the vessel under any circumstances.
But Pandora could not refrain from lifting the lid. She released from her jar all the evils that would torture mankind for eternity. Knowing Pandora's curiosity would prevail, this was Zeus's method of taking revenge on humans for the gift of fire that her brother-in-law, Prometheus, gave to mankind.
Scholars claim that the story originated from an earlier mythological substratum in which Pandora was a great goddess and provider of gifts that made life and culture possible. According to these scholars, the entities released from her urn were not evils, but cultural gifts.
The tale of Hesiod may have been a later invention, promoting patriarchal ethics that gave women an inferior and dependent position.
In Hesiod's story, Pandora brought with her a "pithos," or a big clay jar, when the god Hermes escorted her to Epimetheus. In symbolic language, the earthen jar may represent the female uterus.
This points to an interpretation of Pandora as a symbol of fecundity, prosperity, and life. According to this interpretation, we could consider that her name, the all-gifted, refers to the gifts she brings men, and not to the gifts that the gods bestowed on her.

And if you want more stories, we have an interesting book called illustrated stories from the Greek myths.
This book is a wonderful collection of six classic Greek myths and legends, specially retold for younger readers. Includes the stories of The Wooden Horse, The Minotaur and The Odyssey, as well as a guide to the Greek gods.
