Demeter, scorned of men after her own brother took her, vows to keep her daughter sheltered from men, especially from the God of Hell.

But as with all children, the more taboo something is, the more they crave it. And Olympus's Golden Girl always gets what she wants. The question is: will everyone be happy with it? And what consequences will there be? #3 in lukeevans 12/6/19 #626 in Persephone 08/1/20 shouldn't sound like something to celebrate, but it's my birthday numbers!

𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐍𝐈𝐁𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝐒𝐔 𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐙𝐎𝐍. 𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐞 𝐈 𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐚 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞 𝐎𝐥𝐲𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐬. 𝐋'𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐮𝐨' 𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐮𝐧𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐚, 𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐥𝐚 𝐬𝐚𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐳𝐳𝐚. Nata dalla schiuma del mare, Afrodite è la dea della bellezza e dell'amore del Pantheon delle divinità greche. Lunghi capelli biondi e un paio di iridi cristalline fanno di lei la più bella delle dee dell'Olimpo e delle creature mortali. Tuttavia, il suo dono si rivelerà ben presto essere una condanna: Efesto, il dio del fuoco gobbo e deforme, si è invaghito di lei e vuole chiederla in moglie. Pur di sfuggire ad un'unione che non desidera e di scappare al triste destino scelto per lei, la giovane dea è costretta a rifugiarsi nel mondo mortale, a nascondersi tra gli umani. Efesto, d'altro canto, non essendo intenzionato a rinunciare a lei, decide di cercarla e di coinvolgere anche suo fratello minore nella ricerca. Pur di aiutarlo, Ares, dio della guerra violenta, si mescola ai comuni mortali per tentare di trovare la giovane dea e riportarla sull'Olimpo. Un piano semplice. Cosa poteva andare storto? Se c'era una cosa che Ares non aveva previsto era sentir battere il suo cuore nello stesso istante in cui avrebbe incrociato lo sguardo di Afrodite. Amore, passione, odio e vendetta saranno i temi che si intrecceranno in questa rivisitazione moderna del mito di Ares e Afrodite. ✶ Iniziata il 19 Aprile 2020/ Terminata il 30 Agosto 2020.

As the immortal king of the Underworld, Hades is accustomed to a life of longing and loneliness. A man of his power and majesty should have no interest in silly, innocent things - and yet the woman who haunts his mind's darkest desires is Persephone, the Earth-bound daughter of the strange and jealous Goddess of Fertility. Where Hades is dark and cruel, Persephone is bright and sweet. Having lived her young life under her mother's watchful eye on Earth and far from the adulterous corruptions of Olympus, Persephone is inexperienced and easily frightened. Especially when the god of death steals her away from the only home she's ever known and asks her to become his bride. Seduced, deceived and trapped in the Underworld, Persephone resists her growing fondness and attraction for the tortured soul that is her captor and Husband-to-be. Even when Hades tries to entice her into matrimony with with romance and samples of a life together rich with passion and lust, she resists in the hopes that her mother will come and return her to her simpler life on Earth. But as a darker storm than she ever imagined brews on the horizon and Hades grows increasingly heartbroken, a choice must soon be made by Persephone – lest she truly lose everything she's come to love. --- This is an UNEDITED excerpt from book one of an erotic romance short story series.

A gust of wind dries the drops on her body and she turns around to see someone wrapped in a very heavy cape made of black feathers and long thin hair that looks covered in soft ashes. Their eyes meet and it's like fire and ice dancing for just a brief second. Persephone narrows her glance. That man, so monumental and deadly reminds her of somebody. Her mother's voice rings in the back of her head: "Are you certain it is Poseidon the one we are in dept to?" Realization hits her hard as the Lord of Death stands there in front of her, his golden eyes shimmering making the green forrest look rotten. He saved her life and now is here to claim his compensation for the truble. *THIS STORY IS NOW ON: HINOVEL* https://www.hinovel.com/
