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?”

Chapter 97 : We need to talk

The day had finally come, the break was over and Persephone, her mother and her sisters were all at the bus stop waiting for the school shuttle to arrive.

Earlier that morning, Persephone had gone through an entire lecture on how she should stay away from Hades and the underworld no matter what. Her mother went as far as telling her if she broke this rule, she could kiss her days at OU goodbye.

As Persephone sat there frowning, Jasmine playfully nudged her and gave her a smile. She slipped a note into her hand and gave her nod so that her mother couldn't see what was going on.

"Read it later when you're alone," Jasmine whispered to her.

Persephone nodded and slipped the note into her pocket before turning and seeing the school shuttle pulling in. Was she glad all of this was over, two weeks of being with her mother and she felt as exhausted as ever.

Persephobe got up and gave all of her sisters a hug before walking up to her mother.
