Hades And Persephone Retelling Novels & Stories

To help her escape the ever-growing pollution of the mortal realm, he sent her to Olympus, where nature reams pure. The story of Persephone and Hades is as old as time, and history seemed to repeat itself when the most recent incarnations came together. The laws wouldn't have changed if it weren’t for their love. I wouldn’t be riding beside Ismene-Eirene as my betrothed and probably wouldn’t even be coming to the Underworld in the first place. If the laws hadn’t changed, I’d have already been forced to wed Daphne by now. Just another reason I want this meeting to go well. I want to ensure that Lord Hades and Lady Persephone see that I am different from Eugenius.

“There is no way that you could—” Thanatos sighed. “Yes, I am. Even though we have moved on from our previous lives, the memories we have of those lives are as fresh as if they were just yesterday, Hades. The Tribunal was far too severe to let us repay by continuing to hold onto those memories right up until the present day.” Hades chuckled at the most stupid assumption. “But there is no way that she could be her.” he even said. “I am not drawing any conclusions, Hades. The way you were when you first saw Persephone was identical to the way you were when you first saw her. It was also the same gesture you made when you stripped her of her innocence. So could it be that you and Rebecca–”

No one understood the words. No one has been able to interrupt the final curse till date. The skies opened. Lightning struck the trees. The earth shook. And just like that, the Moon vanished from the world. Some say she died beneath that tree. Some say she returned to the sky, watching everything from above. But the curse she left behind never faded. Every Alpha since then has died before their fortieth birthday. Every generation, brothers kill each other for the title. And no one, not even the strongest among them has been able to escape the fate she spoke into the soil.

“Tough night?” He laughed tiredly, sliding his glasses onto his head and rubbing his eyes. “If I read one more essay of how Hades wants to be ‘king of the gods’ and how he hates Zeus for apparently banishing him to the Underworld I’m going to fail the lot of them! Where did they get this stuff from anyway?” I smiled at the passion he put into his words. “Movies, Baba. Have you got to one where Persephone is kept captive by Hades in the Underworld yet?”

With my last word, my eyes shut completely. The pain faded. I was finally free. —— Cassia's POV A thousand miles away, in a side hall of Mount Olympus. I stood before the communication array. Adonis stood obediently behind me. "My Lord Divine Official," I said with absolute, proud certainty. "The hero who slayed the Minotaur... was the chosen one, Adonis." Adonis tugged at my sleeve, playing innocent. "Will Aiden hate me even more for this?"

After I die, I save Hades' pet. To thank me, he plans to bring me back to life. However, I refuse with a smile. He is stunned for a moment, then asks in confusion, "So many people want to live, so why do you refuse instead?" I give him a bitter smile. "Maybe it's because being alive is a fate worse than death." He doesn't believe it, and his tone turns unfriendly. "Don't think I don't know that your parents are famously known for loving their daughter. They even make the news because of how much they love you." I crouch there without speaking. It's indeed true that they've made the news for loving their daughter, but that is all an act. The truth is, the only one they've ever really lo

"One day, when Persephone the young goddess was gathering flowers by the stream, Hades the brother of Zeus and god of the underworld abducts her. Zeus and Demeter kept asking for her. Reluctant to release her, he forces Persephone to eat a pomegranate seed, the food of the dead" the other female voice continued. "We always believe she would come back but we didn't know who she would come back as. We only knew she was going to come back as someone we least expect" my said guardian continued. "And is that where my powers come from?" I asked

“This time, I don’t plan to sneak in. I will knock on his front door and demand Kyra be set free.” “Instead of pissing Hades off more, we need to try to reason with him. Since we can't return the Scepter in exchange for Kyra, we need to see if there is anything else he wants. I can have him meet us somewhere.” Zeus answered. “This won’t be the first time I have made a deal with him, and it likely won’t be the last.” I suspected Zeus was referencing how Zeus had made a deal with Hades regarding Hades's wife and Zeus’s daughter, Persephone. Where she would spend six months with her husband and six months with her mother, which is the reason behind the change of seasons.

A raven lands on one of the crater rocks, crowing our attention. "My tunic," Persephone demands, exiting the water. I hold the long fabric as she slips in, not caring to dry herself off, then pick up the tray with her usual snack. "Hades is here. Do not make eye contact with him and keep your head low." She barely has time to finish her warning before a man comes into view. The air became thick, unbreathable grim, making her uneasy.

I think the real reason why Hades abandoned Proserpina when she was a kid was because he was afraid that once his wife finds out about his infidelity, she will take revenge on his daughter similar to what Hera did to her husband's many illegitimate children. If it wasn’t obvious enough yes, Righteous Purge happened because of Hera. Proserpina is literally Persephone’s name but in Latin. Hades naming Proserpina after Persephone was a move meant to pacify his wife since he's bringing his kid to their home.
