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 88 : Rebound

Demeter noticed many of the nymps swarming around Persephone and became curious. She walked over to see what all the fuss was about, and noticed the patch of blue roses that her daughter had grown.

Persephome glanced at her mother and smiled proudly at her work, never had she been able to grow such pretty roses before.

"Aren't they beautiful?" Persephone mumbled as she plucked one of the flowers and presented it to her mother. "I was thinking they would be a wonderful addition to this year's spring batch."

Demeter took the rose and twirled it in her hand, and then gave it a brief sniff. "It definitely is interesting," she responded. "Never seen anything quite like it, what inspired you to conjure such a flower?"

Persephone averted her mother's gaze, she couldn't tell her that her inspiration was Hades, the king of the underworld, Demeter would skin her alive and use her remains as manure.
