Angelique Cruz is just a normal 22-year-old Filipina living out her last vacation as a college senior to the fullest before going into the work force. 
	But during her vacation trip with her friends, she makes a startling discovery: she is, in fact, the reincarnation of goddess Persephone. With this, she is forced to turn her back on her peaceful, average life and face a strange, antique world of myth and magic.
	Between longing for her previous life and adjusting to her newfound identity, she also finds herself at odds with Fran Treloar, the reincarnation of Hades and her supposed husband. 
	With the two of them bickering at first sight, will there be a possibility for cooperation, or even. . affection?

Author’s Note: I wrote this story while listening to Some by Soyu and Junggigo. Kinda imagined this one as the OST. You may want to listen to that as you read it :)

Married to the God of Death

 “Curiosity kills a stranger and births a friend.” 


 AS SOON AS Angelique opened her eyes the next day, Charon was standing at the foot of her bed. 


 “Good morning, Madam. I will step out for a moment as you freshen up.” 


 It was so weird seeing him without his master, “Where is Hades?” 


 He jerked at the mention of the lord’s mortal name. “He had a meeting with other minor deities of the underworld.” 


 He would not even bother seeing her off. Not that Angelique is disappointed not to see him for the last time. 


 She knew that she will be returning to her family. So she decided to wear simple clothes so as not to arouse any unnecessary attention from people. 


 Charon was right outside the master’s bedroom, waiting for her. “Madam, you look.. peculiar.” 


 “I know I have got a lot of designer’s dresses but I do not want my mom to worry.” 


 That’s not good. “Is there any problem, Charon?” 


 “You will find out soon, my lady.”
