GREEK GODS X MALE READER

HADES

It was another busy day at your bakery in Elysium, as you diligently kneaded dough and filled the air with the heavenly aroma of freshly baked goods. As you packed a basket with your signature pastries, you prepared for your routine delivery to the Underworld.

Arriving at the gates of the Underworld, you were greeted by Charon, the ferryman, who guided souls across the river Styx. "Hello, Charon! Fresh treats for the souls today," you said with a warm smile, handing him the basket.

Charon nodded, impressed by your baking prowess. "The dead are in for a treat, as always," he said, before granting you passage into the realm of the dead.

As you made your way through the dimly lit halls of the Underworld, you caught a glimpse of Hades, the imposing ruler of the realm. He was inspecting the souls passing through and maintaining his stoic composure. However, he couldn't help but notice your presence, and he made his way towards you.

Hades: (raising an eyebrow) "Ah, the baker from Elysium. Your pastries are quite popular among the souls here."

You: (blushing) "Thank you, Lord Hades. It's an honor to have your approval."

Hades: (eyeing the basket) "What do you have for me today?"

You: (proudly) "I've brought my specialty - ambrosia-infused cupcakes. They are said to bring a taste of the divine to those who savor them."

Hades: (curiously) "Divine, you say? I'm intrigued."

You carefully arranged the cupcakes on a tray, and Hades took one, savoring the delicate flavor.

Hades: (impressed) "Mmm, this is exquisite. Your baking skills are truly exceptional."

You: (grinning) "I'm glad you like them, my lord. It's my way of bringing a little sweetness to the Underworld."

Hades: (softening) "Indeed, it's a welcome change in this realm of darkness."

As you conversed, you realized that Hades was not the stern and distant figure that others believed him to be. He was drawn to your warmth and passion for baking, and he found comfort in your company. Over time, your visits to the Underworld became more frequent, and you and Hades developed a unique bond.

One day, you found Hades in his throne room, looking particularly weary. You approached him with a tray of freshly baked cookies, hoping to lift his spirits.

You: (offering the cookies) "Lord Hades, you look like you could use a pick-me-up. I made these cookies with an extra sprinkle of joy."

Hades: (smiling faintly) "Thank you, (Y/N). Your thoughtful gestures always brighten my day."

As Hades took a bite of the cookie, he couldn't help but feel a warmth spreading through his chest. He realized that you had become a source of solace for him in the otherwise somber Underworld.

Hades: (softly) "(Y/N), spending time with you and enjoying your treats has been a rare pleasure in my eternal existence."

You: (blushing) "I feel the same way, Lord Hades. Your company has brought light into my life as well."

As you gazed into each other's eyes, the tension between you grew palpable. Hades reached out and gently cupped your face, and you leaned into his touch, feeling a spark of something special.

Hades: (whispering) "(Y/N), I may be the ruler of the Underworld, but in your presence, I feel like a mortal man. Will you stay with me, and be mine?"

You: (heart fluttering) "I... I would be honored, Lord Hades. I have come to care for you deeply."

Hades: (smiling) "Then it is settled. You shall be mine, and I shall be yours."

With those words, Hades leaned in and gently pressed his lips to yours, a moment that seemed to defy the darkness of the Underworld. It was a sweet and tender kiss, filled with longing and desire. As you pulled apart, you both knew that this was the beginning of something special.
