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

Hecate walked with a skip in her step as she entered Hades' office. She had really enjoyed her job ever since she got back to work, and she could not wait to tell her boss all about the progress she had made.

But upon setting eyes on the blue god, Hecate's enthusiasm dwindled rather quickly. Saying Hades looked sad was an understatement, the man looked devoid of all joy and happiness, like he was but a shell of the god he was a few days ago.

"What happened to you?" Hecate asked as she pulled herself a chair and sat down. "I haven't seen you like this in years."

"It's nothing," Hades responded and continued typing away at his computer, not once glancing Hecate's way.

"Well you're a Debbie downer, I came in here with so much positive energy and you just killed it all. I know you're the king of the realm of the dead, but could you look a little more alive?"
