ancientgreece demeter greek greekmyth hades hecate hera myth mythology persephone romance zeus

In Greek mythology, it is commonly believed that Hades kidnapped Persephone and forced her to eat those six pomegranate seeds. No one asked if she knew what she had done. No one suggested she could love Hades. No one even thought she might want to stay in the Underworld. 

What if she had been in danger from something on Gaia? What if Hades merely sought to protect her?

This is the true story. The partial autobiography of my life.

Hades and Persephone: A Fated Love by Lord_deadfandoms

"You can have anything you want," He plucked the ripest for me from the tree. "Everything in my world is yours." With all of my mother's warnings, I had been afraid to eat from his table or drink his wine. These were binding things, and I would starve myself thin before Hades and I were tied together by communion. But in the light of this garden, it didn't seem as dangerous as it had in the dark. "I feel your wanting," he murmured and pressed half a pomegranate into my palm. Being in Hades's underworld for so long threatened to consume me. "Please. I shouldn't," I whispered. "Shouldn't," he repeated. "Why, Persephone? Because it is against the rule of the gods?" "No," I breathed. "If I cross this line, I don't know what will become of me." "Let me show you." ................................ 🥈#2 in retellings 🏅#4 in Olympus 🏅#11 in Persephone

Hades |Lesbian Version| by Svetaivanova

| A Wattpad Featured Story | Hades was well-cast to rule over the land of the dead. But what if Hades, the fearsome monarch of the Underworld was, in fact, a goddess? Everyone called her, 'Lord of the Dead' out of mockery since she prefers the company of women. She was considered an isolated and violent immortal, who loathed change and was easily given to a slow black rage like no others. But then everything changed when the dark goddess met the daughter of Demeter, Persephone. Now the tale of Hades and Persephone will be retold with a sprinkle of twists and turns. |LGBT content.

Stuck in the Underworld, betrayed and lonely in a miserable marriage, she vows to get away...until she starts to realize her husband isn't so bad, after all. When escape is offered she accepts it, but realizes she is stuck forever in the Underworld...and isn't as upset as she should be. Her family is, however, and it seems like Persephone will never get a break.
