This is basically a tale of Hades and Persephone, but not quite like you know it. The love that blossomed between Hades and Persephone was never a mere coincidence like Greek mythology suggests, there are ancient truths that were buried, lies that were praised, and connections that were severed, never again to see the light of day…

Until now.

Persephone, a sheltered, home schooled sweet little girl finally gets the chance to see the world beyond her mother’s reach and enrolls in the most prestigious university in all the three realms. Will she fulfill her mother’s wishes of working hard and graduating collage so she can take over the business? Or will her encounter with the king of the underworld completely throw her off track?

“Lord Hades! Lord Hades!”

“How many times have I told you not to scream in my office Thanatos?”

Thanatos stopped in front of the large black table and slipped a piece of paper across to the dark haired man who was smoking a cigar at the other end of it. “You need to see this.”

Hades picked up the paper and trailed his deep crimson eyes over each line, his brows knitting more and more as he read. “Is this a some kind of fluke?”

“I followed it up sir,” Thanatos responded. His voice indicated both excitement and nervousness, how could he not be? This had never happened before in the history of the underworld. “It’s not a fluke sir, someone actually applied to intern in the underworld.”

“Persephone….” Hades mumbled to himself as she gazed at the picture attached to the application letter. “What are you up to little dove?”

Underworld Intern

Thanatos leaned forward about to kiss Persephone's hand, when Hades pulled her away and glared angrily at him. Thanatos chuckled in amusement at his boss' reaction, this was absolutely precious, you could literally see Hades' possessiveness all over his face. Who was the man kidding, he had the hots for Persephone for sure.

Thanatos looked to Persephone's side and noticed the young satyr who was standing there with a rather aggressive look in his eyes. "And who might you be?"

"Oh, I completely forgot you were there," Hades mumbled sheepishly. "This is one of Persephone's little classmates, his name is Ketos."

"It's Tekos, and I'm not her class mate, I'm her friend and assistant lecturer at-"

"Yes yes very impressive," Hades brushed Tekos off before turning back to look at Thanatos. "Is Christos in? We have an appointment with him at nine."

"He's in your office waiting for you."
