Hades And Persephone Retelling Novels & Stories

A woman leaned close to them, smiling softly as she smoothed my son’s hair. The boy was Eren, the child I had nearly given up half my life force to bring into the world. The woman was not me. I was Persephone, goddess of spring, queen of the Underworld, and Hades’s wife under every sacred law. Not long after, Nympha posted her own update on the social feed. In the illustration, my mother’s pomegranate brooch lay beside a small charm of laurel and asphodel, clumsily woven by a child’s hands. Beneath it, she wrote:

Screams resonated throughout the arena, the shrieks of tormented souls made him deaf, no longer his senses heightened. Starvation dulled the greed and lust in his eyes...the same cruel ones which laughed as children were denied food. Three terrible months have passed since he was locked. Three terrible months since Persephone rejected him. "Persephone" Dark red blood whoozed out of his mouth as her name touched his lips. Hades never killed him because she will. Her oath would never go in vain. Her cries would burn his vitality and the day. The hell would rejoice when the Queen of Underworld will strike.....the time has come.

I guess it’s time to battle. “You know that I wasn’t always like this.” Hades says conversationally as he easily swipes Toby’s blade away. “I once loaned my helmet to Perseus to defeat Medusa. You would think that it would give me some brownie points. Alas, it didn’t.” I came up to battle him as soon as he finished his sentence. I don’t care that he loaned his invisibility helmet. I care about my mate and queen. I swirl my sword as a way to distract him. His eyes lit up in humor.

CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN. SUBTITLE; A Night to remember. Tasha happily went back to blue garden with the funniest thoughts ever. She would soon make Xavier hers and become the rightful madam of the Blue garden. Once she arrived at the mansion she heaved a satisfying sigh and rushed inside while the servants were puzzled by her sudden happiness. They were all wondering if she'd won a lottery, they weren't in the position to speak with the occupants of the mansion unless necessary so they all went to work with a shrug.

aren't you afraid? — Not with you by my side, you idiot. — I approach your lips. — Persephone didn't want Hades, but he insisted... one day she fell in love with him, then she understood that there was no point in going if a piece of her would stay with him. Persephone is the Goddess of light..., but she didn't mind being the queen of darkness. — I whispered and closed my eyes, tense and panting.

“No. If they wish to return to you, then I will not stop them, however, I will not tell them to go with you either. Now, leave my land.” Hades turns to head back to his pack and leaves the other wolves behind. I watch them and I can tell this will not be good, as I’ve seen it before. I am proved right, when the male at the head of the group, lunges forward and shifts mid stride, to attack Hades from behind. His buddies follow him a few seconds later, and as the first reaches Hades, I see him turn and grab the first wolf by the throat, stopping him in his tracks and lifting him off the ground. **

There were golden yellow, palette yellow, white, orange, an pink. “Woah, talk about a daffodil craze.” she remarked. “To tell you the truth, your ladyship, it was almost impossible to grow any flower in the underworld especially because of the absence of the madam.” “Really? Then what is it with Hades and daffodils?” In her mind, she is calling him stupid. “You might not remember this but daffodils or narcissus, as we call it, reminds the master of you.” “Of me?” Angelique searched her brain for possible connection of Persephone, Hades and narcissus but failed. Unfortunately, her favorite Greek mythology couple is Eros and Psyche.

Lukas leaned in and breathed in my ear, "They are Hades and his mate, Persephone." I felt my breath hitch. Even though I guessed it but knowing it was true made it feel real. Hades was clad in all-white suit with a rose on his lapel. I was expecting him to have a long white beard, but he looked youthful with his brunette hair slicked back and clean-shaven face. Persephone, on the other hand, was breathtaking with her white lace gown and her long blonde hair parted in one side. "Ahh, Lukas!" Hades cried out, wrapping his arms around Lukas and tugging him closer.

She stands before the Gods on their thrones and throws Hades at their feet. ‘I am done. It has been 6 months and I will be returning to my family. Now kill him and get me home.’ Zeus nods and snaps his fingers. In an instant Hades is dead. People come out to check and make sure he is dead and then his body bursts into flames. The ash held into a sphere that Zeus takes back to the underworld. ‘Thank you my child.’ Selene beams at her. ‘No offense but don’t ever do that again. Always ask permission first.’ Sonya says with a chuckle.

As if be wanted to say those words that I've been waiting to hear all these while. “Should I tell you something?" Je asked and I nodded my head slowly. “The queen of the underworld is called Persephone. And even better than that, her mate is Hade’s, the King of the underworld.” His face hovered above my own as he pushed a stray strand behind my eyes. "Maybe the witch didn't need the good king. Maybe she needed her very own Hades to help complete her,” As he spoke he brought his face closer to my own, his lips barely an inch away from mine.
