Hades A vacation on earth from the underworld sounded perfect. Like nothing could go wrong. I wasn't expecting much. I especially wasn't expecting to meet Persephone. The same Persephone I was told didn't exist for me, the same Persephone who was destined to be my wife and queen, the same Persephone who's the key to my rule in the underworld. Nor was I expecting to save her life. And the thing I was expecting least? For her to be nothing but a goddamn mortal. Persephone Everything seems to be falling apart. My entire life. I've lost my job, my parents are nowhere to be found, I'll be kicked out of my apartment soon, and I nearly died. Nearly. The last thing I would imagine happening to me is a handsome and mysteriously dark stranger saving my life. Begrudgingly.

But in no world does it make sense what he asks of me. Or tells me. He's Hades. The Hades. And he isn't a human. No, not at all. He's the real Hades. The ruler of the underworld and my personal doom. . . . ALL RIGHTS RESERVED don't steal my idea <3
