The Flower and the Flame {Retelling of Hades & Persephone}

"Hades had grown accustomed to living in darkness. In fact, after ruling over it for so long, he preferred it, which was why he found it so curious he would be drawn to such light. That he would venture out of the shadows and into the land of the living just to catch a glimpse of it; so radiant, so warm, so bright.

But here he was, yet again."

It's love at first sight when Hades, the king of the underworld, sees the goddess of spring Persephone frolicking in the meadow. Light quickly illuminates the dark, but the promise that brings them together is soon overshadowed by the lie that threatens to tear them apart.
