Trying to make Hades move on from Persephone's heart break, the gods coax him to go, visit the Earth in an impossible quest for a mortal, who could love him.
Not quite happy with his family's decision, Hades agrees on obeying them for the first time ever since the Earth was created.
Soon enough, Hades sets his eye on a rich CEO, who he meets at a masquerade party. He misbehaves with him, and tries to forget him. But instead, is swept up in a storm he can't comprehend.
Will Damien stay with him and heal his heart, or will Hades's depth of depravity and lack of light in his life, drive the young man away, breaking the fragile hope he offered him?
Persephone has already been kidnapped by Hades, her unwanted and unexpected suitor. Demeter has already cast a famine on all the humans in her grief.

Do you honesty think it is fair that it should work that way? People take one look at me and assume I'm the devil." Persephone crouches back in her seat. I realize I am standing and seat myself, trying to calm myself. "Do you honestly think that being in charge of the dead and judging them makes me undeserving of love, of a wife? I'm doomed to be exiled down here. I don't even have the sun to keep me warm, Persephone. You're all the sun I have..."
