Hades

The plan worked. Oh my gosh, I can't believe it works! All she has to do now is wake up.

Fuck, focus Hades.

I watch as her body floats in midair, she's becoming Persephone, Korey is slowly becoming her inner voice, her inner being. I look over at Poseidon, he's watching Korey closely, making sure that nothing happens to her and no one interrupts her.

A cold wind blows into the palace, the windows slam against the wall, causing people to jump. I close my eyes and listen for a heartbeat, I turn my head and look at Poseidon and he gives me a smile and a nod.

She's still alive.

The wind comes to a sudden stop and her body slowly lowers to the ground. It's complete, she's bound to the underworld.

I kneel beside her body and stroke her chin, "Baby, you're mine now."

Her eyes flutter open and she gives me a faint smile, "And I am yours."
