Underworld Intern

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?”

Persephone glanced at her phone and pursed her lips. "I can't," she mumbled.

"And why not? Clearly you want to talk to him."

"I do but I don't want to seem desperate, it's only been a few hours after all. Plus Hades is a very busy god, I don't want to disturb him."

"The two of you are an item right?"

Persephone blushed intensely and hundreds of tiny pink flowers filled the bed her and Eris were sitting on. "Of course not! What gave you that idea?!"

Eris narrowed her eyes at the goddess, "well, you blush every time a conversation about Hades comes up. And the way you two act when you're together, it just screams 'dating', so forgive me for assuming."

"No, Hades and I are just friends," the goddess mumbled shyly. "We're not a couple."

"Well regardless of that, you do like him as more than a friend, don't you?"

 "I do..."
