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.

And thus, each God chooses six girls from all around the world above to compete for the darkest heart of them all. ------------------------------------ Told from the point of view of a competitor, Ariel Caverly is newly dead and offered the choice of a lifetime: become the new Queen of the Underworld or face Judgment. She's a small town London girl with more secrets than friends and is thrust into a world full of love triangles, hard decisions, betrayal and friendship found in the most unlikeliest of places.
