LOGINAngelique Cruz is just a normal 22-year-old Filipina living out her last vacation as a college senior to the fullest before going into the work force. But during her vacation trip with her friends, she makes a startling discovery: she is, in fact, the reincarnation of goddess Persephone. With this, she is forced to turn her back on her peaceful, average life and face a strange, antique world of myth and magic. Between longing for her previous life and adjusting to her newfound identity, she also finds herself at odds with Fran Treloar, the reincarnation of Hades and her supposed husband. Cold and demanding, he gave her no choice but to put up with a contract marriage with him. With the two of them bickering at first sight, will there be a possibility for cooperation, or even. . affection?

The meeting of the board of directors back in Mt. Olympus is dangerously near but there is still a lot of work to do. The accomplishment reports of his businesses both in the underworld and in the mortal world still needs to be perfected. Aside from that, he needs to make sure that his businesses will be perfectly taken care of while he is away.“Have you relayed my instructions to the lampads in charge of the businesses in the mortal world?” He asked Charon.“Yes, sir. I have done as you asked.”“Arrange a meeting with Aeacus, Rhadamanthus, and Aeacus later. I want to personally give them instructions while I am away.&rdqu
“The best way to get to know someone is to figure out what the people around that person thinks of him/her.” ANGELIQUE was shocked with Ascalaphus’ revelation. No one told her she had the freedom to leave the underworld. “Think about it, my lady. Ever since you arrived in this mansion, you have not eaten anything grown from the underworld.” She thought back to her meals. During her first breakfast, she was served with fruits, but because she was not used to eating those early in the morning, she left them uneaten and just drank her milk. Afterwards, she was served meat and other usual meals in the mortal world. “Now that you have said it, I remember Rheie saying the ingredients used for my food is imported from the mortal world.” “Even the fruits that were served to you are imported. Even when we have plenty of it here in the orchard.”
“There are two ways to look at life: thinking that things you desire come to you because it was meant to be, and thinking that it comes to you because you have worked hard towards reaching them.” After a few more days of playing Fran’s little assistant, Angelique had become familiar of his work routine. He would always go out of the mansion and head to a meeting in the underworld, in the mortal world regarding his businesses there, or in Olympus to report progress to the great twelve. When he does not have any meetings, he stay in his office to settle paper works that need his opinion or signature. She stared at her reflection in the mirror of her dresser. Fran will be going back from a meeting he had with the three judges of the underworld. It was already late at night. “Madam, looks like the meeting will not be ending soon.” Rheie informed her.
“The little girl asked her grandpa, ‘When did you first knew you loved grandma?’ He answered, ‘When I started slowing downduring walks so I could be beside her.” Angelique stood frozen by the bedside until Fran went back from the walk-in closet. “What are you doing standing there?” he asked. She looked at the cleopatra sofa and thought about asking Fran to sleep there. ‘He might feel uncomfortable on it. He must be used to sleeping in a big, soft bed.’ So she took a pillow and walked to the sofa. “Where are you going?” he asked some more. “You go sleep on the bed. I will be sleeping here on the sofa.” “That is just ridiculous. That sofa is not built for sleeping.” “It is
