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 71 : Tulips

Hades placed the bouquet of white tulips on the passager seat and held his stirring wheel firmly.

"Stop it Hades," he mumbled to himself. "Minthe is no good for you. The life you led when you were with her isn't a good one, it was destructive and careless, there's no way the fates would be talking about Minthe. It's Persephone, it has to be."

The god put his car into drive and sped towards Olympus university. It was still an hour until their agreed meeting time, but he had to get away from the underworld a little and distract himself from the thoughts he was having.

He pulled up and parked next to Persephone's dormitories before pulling out his phone and dailing in her number. As her phone rang, Hades noticed the different students who were staring at his car and whispering among themselves.

Before he could dwell on it much, the goddess picked up his call, her sweet voice melting his thoughts away instantly.

'Is that you parked outside my dorm?'
