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 99 : She blocked my number

Persephone could literally hear her heartbeat thudding against her chest as she looked into Tekos' anticipating eyes. 

"Wha- what is it?" She mumbled through quivering lips. She had a feeling in the pit of her stomach that she knew what he was going to ask for, what else could it be? 

They were alone in his apartment, sitting mere inches apart, and he was gazing at her like she was the most delectable meal he had ever seen.

"Well, I was wondering if it would be okay with you, if I..." Tekos leaned forward, his breathing was slow and his face was flushed.

In a panic, Persephone placed her hand on his chest in an attempt to stop him from getting any closer, but he instead held her hand and kissed it before continuing to speak.

"Tekos..."

"Persephone, is it alright if I refer to you by a more endearing name, 'babe' maybe?"
