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

The dinner table was nothing short of a disaster. When Zeus and Poseidon walked into the house and saw Hera and Persephone drunk, they too filled their cups and drunk themselves to intoxication.

Hades was the only sober being at the table, dealing with the ridiculous drunken shenanigans of everyone else. He unfortunately could not allow himself to get intoxicated at this particular time; firstly, because he had to be sober enough to take care of his tipsy little flower goddes. And secondly, because he didn't trust drunk him around Persephone, he was too attracted to her to pull the plug on his sober sanity.

"You want seconds Hades?" Persephone asked the god when she noticed that his plate was empty. Her drunk voice was enough to get the god to tug his collar loose in need of air. "Here, let me dish you out."
