Define Evil

Dragging his gaze back towards the beautiful goddess, Hades pursed his lips as he listened to her. A slight showing of amusement flashed through them before becoming neutral in their stance. "I don't act on anything unless I am certain of it, Persephone." Hades said, his voice calm as he gave her a look that would be described as blank as a piece of paper, but. If one looked close enough, one might be able to catch that small bit off affection that he wore only for her.

Slowly, Hades dragged his tongue over his lips and examined the young beauty that was before him. She was so young and innocent, it slightly repulsed him yet it interested him in the same manner. "You are quire young still." Hades brought up the obvious. "There is still quite a bit about life as a goddess that you will need to learn, as well as about yourself and the world in general." Closing his eyes and taking in a deep breath, Hades could smell the faint aroma of the flowers in the area.

Then, opening his gaze, Hades looked at the young girl in front of him with dark eyes that told no lies. "You'll come to like it here my love. Just relax and take everything in. Trust me." He told her as he slowly turned away from the young girl and headed towards the mansion that he had built from the ground up many years ago when he was first granted his god powers. "Come Persephone, Let's go inside and talk more. I'd like to have a cup of coffee while you tell me about yourself."

Without waiting to see if the young goddess was following him, Hades pushed open both doors that'd lead to the garden and walked inside. He said nothing as he walked into a grand living room and sat down on a dark black leather couch. His arm stretched out over the couch next to him, expecting for Persephone to sit down next to him.

"Your arrogance knows no bounds," Persephone said harshly, rather irritated that the man seemed so sure that she would fall in love with him. It seemed unfair to her that this was the case. Persephone knew what she wanted so what was he planning on doing in trying to change her mind? Gifting her a garden after what he had done wouldn't even get her kindness, much less her hand in marriage.

The young goddess let out a small huff as he told her to relax. Hades made it seem like everything was so simple and easy. That this was the way that things were meant to be but, in reality, it wasn't. Persephone found it impossible to calm down when she was stuck somewhere she didn't belong. Even more so since it was currently Spring up on Earth. She was supposed to be there doing her job. And now she couldn't even do that.

As Hades turned away from her and headed inside, Persephone shifted on her feet. She didn't want to follow him, to speak to Hades more. What Persephone really wanted was to slam the garden doors in his face and stay there for a while. Though as she watched Hades continued down the hallway, Persephone's anxiousness rose and she was quick to turn on her feet and follow after Hades. As angry as she was with Hades, Persephone did not want to feel his wrath.

Once they were in the grand living room, Persephone stopped at the entrance and glanced around. Much like the rest of his house, it was rather dark but sleek nonetheless. It was very clear that Hades had a particular style. She didn't hate it but Persephone wished there was more color to it. As Hades sat down, Persephone looked at him before gliding over to one of the large armchairs and sitting down.

@ BearGirl
Not soon after had Hades sat down, had one of his servants come in to offer him and Persephone a cup of coffee. Hades motioned for the servant to set the coffee on the end table as he watched his newly beloved as she sat far away from him. An amused smirk playing along his lips as he watched her. Movements so smooth, so efortless, there was no dought that she was a goddess at all.

"Are you still holding a grudge over me bringing you here?" Hades asked casually as he sat up straight and reached for his cup of coffee. Bringing it to his lips, Hades blew on the hot drink and then took a small sip. It tasted bitter, yet was as smooth as silk. Just like how he liked it. A small sigh escaped from the dark overlord as he set his cup back down on the table.

Shifting his gaze back towards Persephone, he waited for a moment before he decided to speak up once more. "Why don't you allow for me to show you the underworld? Let me try and win your heart over. It's not going to do you any good if you keep giving me an attitude. I'm still going to be having you here." Hades spoke, his words honest as he eyed the young goddess. He knew she was going to get even madder at his words, but honestly. He didn't care. She was going to stay and wed him rather she liked it or not.

"We can make a little bet if you want." Hades offered after a few moments of silence. His words nothing but a pure lie, not that the goddess would know.

@ FallenHope95

As the coffee was set down in front of them, Persephone poured some creamer into hers before picking it up and leaning back into her seat. Her eyes focused on the cup in front of her as she listened to Hades speak. For someone who was supposedly so amazing and powerful, she thought Hades rather dim. At least when it came to others that is. Persephone let out a small hum in response to his words as he spoke before taking a moment to take a long sip of her coffee.

"Yes." The goddess told him honestly. "I do hold a grudge for you bringing me here and I am unsure why you think I would be fine with you kidnapping me the next day. I told you that I do not wish to be here but you do not care at all. And you have this strange notion that I am going to marry a man that I know nothing of except the fact that he cares little for my own wishes. You seem to think so little of what I want but claim you should be my husband. Why would I ever want to be with a man like that? Perhaps you think I crave the power that you can offer me but I have no interest in it. And while you and my father can keep me down here, you can't force my hand in marriage."

The goddess let out a small sigh before turning her head and looking over at one of the walls. In truth, she didn't even want to look at him. This conversation was irritating her enough. "I don't want to see the underworld. And I don't know why I should give you any chance at all to 'win my heart over'. Quite frankly, I have no interest in you even being in my presence at this point."

Persephone's interest immediately perked up as Hades mentioned a bet. She lifted her head up and turned to Hades, looking him right in the eyes. Her head tilted slightly, wondering if Hades was going to offer what she hoped that he would. Maybe a way out? Unless his bet was something silly but it was hard to tell what it was he was offering quite yet. "What kind of bet?" The young goddess asked him.

@ BearGirl
The little fact that this goddess was so damn opinionated was quite annoying to the god of death. She had a say in everything that went on around her. It was quite annoying and it was no wonder that her mother didn't have a dedicated spouse as Persephone more than likely got all of this attitude from her no less. The annoying wench.

"Isn't it obvious what kind of bet I'm talking about?" Hades asked as he watched the young goddess drink the coffee that was placed in front of her. "Three days, human time." He held up three fingers. "If I can get you to change your mind, then I win. If after the three days you're still not happy, then you may leave." Hades lowered his hand and took another sip of his coffee before he leaned back in his seat and watched the wheels turning in Persephone's mind. Little did she know though, she already lost. As everyone who's had something to eat or drink in the underworld are always drawn back.

Silence filled the room as Hades sat back quietly, watching the young goddess as he waited for her to agree or not with his little charade of a bet. He had no interest in letting her go but figured if it'd make her happy then so be it.

"It's as the humans say, relationships are giving and take, right?" Hades asked, his tone monotone as he eyed the young girl that was across from him. "But, you have to be open-minded with my ideas of fun, you can't just automatically tell me no every time I bring something up, deal?"

@ FallenHope95

Persephone was quiet for a moment as she thought over Hades' offer. Her fingers lightly tapped against the bottom of her cup as she thought it through. In truth, she was surprised that he was making this bet at all. She was already stuck down in the underworld and Hades wasn't even asking her to stop being rude to him. In fact, his bet didn't require her to even open herself up to the idea of them being together nor did she have to give him a chance. And three days was a rather short amount of time... did he really expect her to fall for him in three days?

Her eyebrow raised at him and she leaned forward slightly. The anger that had been filling Persephone up disappeared in a moment. While she was furious at Hades on and off over the last day, the young goddess find it difficult to hold in her heart for long. She wasn't typically the type to grow all that mad for long... but this was also the first time she was kidnapped. This was really going to be a strange week.

Part of her wanted to ask Hades what he really got out of the deal but she wasn't sure she even cared all that much. As long as there was a way out of here, Persephone was happy. She knew that Hades was a smart man and surely he would have a trick up his sleeve but Persephone needed to hope he would be the type of man to honor his deal once he made it. "Very well." She said softly. "For three human days, I promise I won't be difficult anymore. And by the end of it, I will tell you if I changed my mind or not. If I have, I'll stay here and if I have not, you promise to bring me home?"

@ BearGirl
As Persephone agreed tp this fake little bet, a small smirk slowly played along on Hade's lips and he nodded his head. "As a god, my promises are always kept." He said causally as he took a sip of his coffee and sighed after swallowing a couple of sips. The humans really knew how to make things delicious, and it was quite impressive that even the gods enjoyed the stuff as well.

"Now." Hades said casually as he looked towards the beauty that was sitting across the room from him. "Please do tell me about you." Hades said as he relaxed, playing that he cared about her interests, when in reality he really didn't care in the slightest bit. She could love the color red and puppies, and all Hades would be able to reply with would be 'oh'. But, this was for the love of his life, so, he was going to pretend that he was fully invested in her interest. Wanting to seem like he was making an effort on making her fall for him as well.

His dark eyes stayed steady as Persephone spoke. Trying to stay as calm and collected as he could. After a few moments of listening to her speak, the king of hell did his best to smile. He was more then happy to get even the smallest bit from her. Even if she was to snap at him for not knowing in the first place. The fact that she was speaking to him was enough to make him happy.

"You know what, I think I know a place that you'd like." Hades said quietly after a little while. "Would you like to take a walk with me real quick?" He asked her.

@ FallenHope95

With his response, Persephone felt a little better about the deal. Of course, she was still concerned that the man had something up his sleeves. That, somehow this was going to be a trick. But it was better than having nothing at all. With this, Persephone had a chance to actually get what she wanted and she was sure Hades knew he would look worse if he was proven to be lying to her.

A little 'aw' left Persephone when Hades asked for her to speak about herself. She took a moment, drinking a long sip from her cup of coffee to give herself time as to what to say. There were some few things that Persephone was rather sure Hades would not want to hear about and a list of other things that Persephone didn't want him to know.

Bringing the cup down against her lap, Persephone started to speak, her fingers now tapping against the cup nervously. "Well, I am sure that you have realized by now that I enjoy nature. Though I also like to paint and read, among other things. My favorite color is mauve. Um, Artemis is my dearest friend but I don't get to see her as often as I would like."

Persephone lifted her eyes back up to the man when he mentioned heading somewhere else. Silence moved over her for a moment, taking a moment to consider his suggestion. Though, Persephone knew that she should. It was her responsibility now to give him a chance, right? So if he wanted to show her something, then she should let him. So, Persephone gave the god a small nod of her head before she set down the cup of coffee that she had been working on. "Where are we going?" She asked him as she stood up to follow Hades.

@ BearGirl
Mental notes, that's all that Hades was making as Persephone spoke to him. His dark demeanor didn't allow him to show any real interest in what she liked or didn't. He just needed to know what to bring down here to make her happy when he was away doing his job, as in commanding the underworld.

"You will see once we get there," Hades said casually as he led her towards the front door of the palace that he had created as his home. Stopping at the door, Hades glanced towards the young goddess and offered her his arm in case she was too scared to step out the front door. "Nothing bad will happen to you if you're with me, my love," Hades said to reassure the young goddess.

Then, rather or not Persephone took his arm, Hades would lead the way down the steps and down a path that would curve towards the right ever so slightly. His head held high as he walked. His lips pursed into a straight line as they walked. To be honest, he wasn't quite sure what she'd think of what he was about to show her, and that made the dark king himself a little bit nervous.

Pretty soon, the duo made it to the small bridge of the underworld. It was no way the pond that souls needed to cross to get to the underworld, no, it was just a stream of the souls. Traveling towards the sorting area to be looked through by the dark lord himself. The white glow of the souls traveling through the darkness gave off a slightly eery glow. Yet, it was also quite enticing to watch. All of the people who depended on the king of hell to send them in the right direction. "What do you think?" Hades asked as he glanced towards the young woman. "Isn't this what the surface dweller consider, romantic?"

@ FallenHope95

A deep frown came over Persephone's face as they were at the front door of the palace once again. She knew that the king of the underworld would surely be able to protect her in his realm, but she was still frightened of what lied outside of the palace. After seeing the large beast yesterday, the goddess was rather sure that more fearsome creatures lied in the wake in the underworld. And despite the fact that the god seemed wrapped up in having her for his queen, it was hard to say she trusted him.

Once he offered his arm, the young goddess took it without hesitation. She may not like Hades much, but she certainly liked him better than whatever could be waiting for them outside of the door. With Hades' protection, she should be safe. Her fingers pressed tightly into his arm as he opened up the door and started to walk straight. While she stayed close to the man, Persephone allowed herself to look around at what this realm had to offer.

As they crossed the bridge, Persephone glanced down to see the stream of souls passing through the river. A bit of surprised moved over the young goddess face. Of course, she knew that this was where the dead went but she did not know that they moved through the realm in a river form. Nor that each soul glowed either. As odd as it was, Persephone did find the whole thing rather enchanting. It wasn't like her or any other god found dead mortals disturbing. They were their gods, the people that brought them life, death, and everything in between.

"I do not think the mortals would consider this romantic, Hades," Persephone said softly as she peeled her eyes away from the river to look up at the God. "It is their dead, afterall." Slowly, the young goddess turned her attention towards Hades, her eyes meeting his. "I personally find it curious. I did not know that this was what human souls looked like, or that they traveled like this. It is all very interesting and odd."

@ BearGirl
It was amusing, to say the least, that the young goddess dared to meet his eyes. Most cowered at the thought and quickly looked away from him, terrified of the god of death. God or mortal. So, looking straight at Persephone's gaze all but caused the god to slightly smirk at the fact. She was a bold one, that's for sure.

"Normally, no," Hades replied to her. "Souls are usually clear, see-through. But I prefer to create this effect to them, giving them a tad bit of their humanity back. Allowing for those who work for me to recognize the expressions on the souls when looked at closely." Hades explained as he looked back down towards the stream that was running in front of them at a moderately fast speed.

Pursing his lips together, Hades glanced towards Persephone as he pondered a thought. "What do you think, of romance?" He asked, his tone not giving away what he was feeling. He thought that his queen would have found this little adventure endearing, not just fascinating. "What would you like to see for me to show you my feelings for my future queen?" He raised to his full height as he looked towards the goddess, waiting for her beautiful words to grace his eardrums.

@ FallenHope95

Persephone let out a small hum in response to Hades. She was surprised to hear that this was not their natural looks, but something that he did both to make work easier but also for the humans. In a strange way, it was rather nice of him. Almost like he actually cared for the mortals. Persephone did, as much as any God could but she did not think that Hades was the type. "So, you care about them?"

Though his next words caused her naive heart to skip a beat. Her face turned away from him, her eyes avoiding his gaze. Her fingers lightly pressed into his arm. "I do not think much of romance. Mother always said that I would be unwed like Athena and Artemis." It wasn't the exact truth. Demeter's words were true but Persephone had thought about romance. It was just that she knew very little about it. And most of the male Gods were kept away from her by her mother's hands. Some of them have tried to speak to her but it was difficult for any of them to get in more than a few minutes of conversation before being sent off by Demeter.

Her eyes dropped down to the river, knowing that she should give Hades a better answer than that for his second question. It was not right to make Hades try to guess, especially since he only had three days to prove her wrong. Though what did Persephone want? An almost evil little smile started to slide over Persephone's face. This really was her opportunity to do what she couldn't while under Demeter's thumb. Sure, Hades had her kidnapped but it seemed that it might be easier to get Hades to follow her requests.

Turning back to Hades, Persephone looked up, her eyes meeting his. She had an idea but Persephone hoped she could twist it correctly for Hades to be onboard. "I don't think you had a bad idea of bringing me somewhere like this, I just think that the river of souls might have been the misstep," Persephone told him. "But what mortals do is go on dates. What if we did that? What if we had a picnic? Or maybe we could go to one of the large mortal cities? That would be fun and it is so pretty on the mortal plane." Persephone looked up at Hades with huge hopeful eyes. In truth, she had no idea if it would help Hades with his plan to woo her but Persephone loved the idea of trying to get the man to bring her to a human city. Maybe she could get something out of this.

@ BearGirl
The question that Persephone so innocently asked did little to the stoic mask that Hades usually adorned. His dark eyes narrowing ever so slightly at the corners, just barely noticeable unless one was paying close attention to him. "It's not about caring, more so it's to keep the corrupt souls separated from the pure," Hades spoke, his tone even as he looked towards the river once more. "A corrupt soul is like poison, it'll slowly dirty up the pores the more you allow for them to wander around the pure. It's quite annoying to see the same corrupted ones over and over again, so I just flush them from the system when I can."

Slowly, Hades turned his body towards the smaller goddess that was at his side. His right eyebrow arching ever so slightly as he listened to her. "Why is it your mother's choice rather you get married or not?" Hades asked, his eyes twinkling a little bit as he waited for the innocent girl to explain some of her mother's messed up logic to him. The woman was insane, so it was a wonder that the girl that was in front of him was so sweet.

"Hmm." Hades hummed as he watched that little smile of Persephone's appearing on those lush lips. He craved to be able to press his lips to them, but he held back. They had made a deal, one that Hades hated to have to commit to. "You sure you've got no minx gene's in you?" Hades mused as he stared down at the younger god. Her words ringing through his ears and swirled around his mind as he wondered what he should do. Did he indulge his beloved and took her to the human world, or did he keep her here for something safer? Like that little picnic that she seemed to be interested in having.

A slow grumble escaped from Hades as he gave in to Persephone's wishes. He wasn't used to caving into other's wishes, so this was a new experience for the King of the Underworld. "Alright, we can go one this, date." Hades mumbled quietly, already regretting the idea as the words past from his lips. "We can go to the human world, but for that, we need to head back to the Palace." He told her, then motioned for her to follow him back towards the Palace so that he could get his carriage ready for their ride to the human world. "Do you have a human suit?" Hades asked, glancing towards Persephone curiously. The last thing they needed was for the mortals to freak out about their godly appearances. "If not, we'll have to make one before we leave."

@ FallenHope95

"My mother doesn't want me to get married because she doesn't want me attached to any of the Gods. She says that she is saving me pain as men can be cruel and heartless. Or from being used by another" Persephone spoke honestly as she glanced over Hades. Under normal circumstances, she would hold back on the abruptness of Demeter's words but if she was going to give him a chance as they agreed, she needed to be honest. Besides, it would be interesting to see how he responded to it. "She says that I will be happier if I was a virgin goddess like some of the others. And my mother doesn't wish to lose me to someone else."

"I am Demeter and Zeus' daughter. Neither of them has minx in them, at least I do not think so." Persephone told him as she tilted her head to the side a bit. She understood what Hades was trying to say but wasn't sure how to respond to it besides speaking the truth. Though a small smirk came over Persephone lips as she turned to him. "And I am sure there isn't really a way for us to find out either." She took his hand into hers, her thumb running down the back of his hand slowly. She hoped a little more encouragement would get Zeus to bring her to the mortal realm.

Though the moment that Hades said they could go into the human realm, her eyes lit up and a giant smile moved over Persephone's face. "That is fantastic!" Persephone said, almost leaping for joy. The hand around his tightened, squeezing him before she started to head back to the palace, basically pulling Hades with her as she did so. "Where are we going to go? Athens?" Persephone asked him hopefully. "And I don't have a human suit." The young goddess hoped he would not ask more past that. She only ever was allowed in the empty fields of that realm.

@ BearGirl
A snort was the only reaction that Hades could muster for Persephone as he listened to her. It was amazing how much manipulation the woman's mother put into her. Making her not trust others or have any sort of interest in those of the opposite sex. "She's one to talk, your mother isn't as kind as she's trying to seem. She's also ripped gods' hearts out." Hades said as he glanced down at the young goddess.

Then, he looked forward as they walked. Glancing at her only when she grabbed his hand. Hade's bit back his smirk at the feeling of her soft hand in his. So small and fragile feeling. Like he could crush the bones that make up her hand if he dared to. Of course, he didn't want to hurt her, but it was a thought in case she dared to try and pull away before he was ready to.

A small hum escaped from Hades as he listened to the excited tone in Persephone's voice when she heard him agree to take her to the human world. "If you wish to visit there, then yes," Hades said as he looked down at the young woman, a small smile finally tugging on his lips. He tightened his hold on her hand when he felt her doing the same to his hand. "We shall design your disguise first then when we arrive back at the palace," Hades said calmly as he looked down at the young woman. "Don't want you to be figured out, that would cause an uproar." He said, a small smirk forming at the idea of the people going crazy finding out that they had immortals in their midsts.

@ FallenHope95

Persephone let out a light breath of air as she shook her head at Hades. "Exactly." She said as she looked up at Hades. "I've seen how my mother punishes. If she thinks that you and the other Gods are cruel, then that is truly frightening." Persephone gave Hades a slightly pointed look before turning back around and heading towards the palace. As far as she was concerned, the young goddess did not need to further her point. Hades did kidnap her, after all. Now it was up to him to prove that her mother was wrong.

As Hades squeezed her hand back, Persephone looked to the God and smiled softly at him. She didn't mind in the least, especially as she found holding hands rather nice. Though she just hoped Hades would not hold on too tightly. "How long will it take to make a disguise?" Persephone asked him. Despite not having been with the mortals in their world, Persephone knew the importance of not letting them find out the truth. Though now that Hades was allowing her to go to the city, she was ecstatic but concerned about somehow messing up. If she accidentally let herself be seen, it would only prove Demeter right in never bringing her.

Once they were on the steps leading up to the palace, Persephone slid her hand out of his before turning completely to the God. She hesitated for a moment before stepping to the side to let Hades through so he could lead the way.

@ BearGirl
"The time differs for all gods," Hades said casually as he walked along with Persephone. "To make a disguise, you must imagine all of the human attributes that you would like to acquire." Hades glanced towards the young goddess before looking forward. "Some are more stingy on what would look best on them, other's don't care." A shrug of his shoulders was the end of Hade's explanation of how long it takes to create a disguise.

Then, as they got back to his palace, a small smirk appeared on the King of Hell's lips. He raised a hand and gently placed it on the young woman's head as he stepped up the steps past her. His movements fluid and held so much power in each step. Commanding all to respect him in all that he does.

Removing his hand from Persephone's head, Hades walked through the doorway and took a couple of steps before he paused and glanced back towards the young woman. Waiting to see if she was to make a wise choice and follow him or not. Then, he continues towards his office. "Come, Persephone. Stand in front of the mirror." Hades instructed as he moved towards the couch that was in his office and sat down. Leaning back, he stretched his arms around the back of it. His dark eyes focused on the young woman.

"Now," Hades said lowly as he watched the young woman. "Look into the mirror and tell me what you see." Hades motioned for her to look away from him as he speaks. "Okay, now. What do you find beautiful about human females on earth? What do you find interesting about them?" Hades slowly tilted his head to the side as he waited for the woman's words to meet his ears. "Now, close your eyes and allow for yourself to just relax. Relax, let all of the muscles in your body relax. Then, picture what you have just spoken about the humans put together. Imagine their walk, their speech, appearance. Then, once you're sure you have a solid grip on it. Open your eyes. Now, it might take a couple of tries, but it will happen if you focus long enough."

@ FallenHope95

Persephone glanced up at Hades as he placed a hand on top of her head. Her eyes glanced over him as he continued up the flight of stairs, moving in front of her. There seemed to be so much power in the man. Just the way he walked commanded respect and that was so odd to Persephone. How could one be like that? How could one person seem to be able to hold everything at his command? There was respect in it, of course, but Persephone did not think she wanted anyone trying to hold that same attitude when it came to her. Would Hades do that? It was hard to say.

The young goddess continued to follow Hades until they were back in his office. And as he told her to stand in front of the mirror, she did so. Persephone glanced at herself, smiling softly at seeing the flowers that adorned her. Though she knew that Hades didn't ask her to look into a mirror to just stare at herself. Well, that was until he asked her what she saw in the mirror.

"I see myself, of course," Persephone told Hades. Though, she continued on as he asked his next question. "They are interesting. The mortals have flaws. Though they also have these dots along their face, freckles that I find intriguing. And the mortal women have such strange hairstyles as well." Persephone continued to list off a few things she found strange about the mortals. And soon, Hades was talking her how to set her disguise up.

The goddess closed her eyes and started to imagine a mortal woman. Persephone did as Hades' said, picturing all of the features of a human, trying to ensure that she did not leave anything godlike on herself. Though, when she hoped her eyes, the disguise that had started to come up quickly faded away. But Persephone was quick to close her eyes again, this time giving herself more time to form it around herself. After a few minutes, the disguise was up. Persephone was a young woman with ginger, messy, curly hair and freckles that covered her face. Her eyes were a warm honey, though her nose and lips were normal size. Her chin sloped out slightly. As for her body, Persephone did not change much but make herself more tanned and removing her godly glow. Though her flowers fell away and her godly outfit was replaced by a dark olive green toga, one of merchant status. Persephone turned to hades once she was sure she had it solid. "Will this suffice?" Persephone asked him, her voice changing to be a bit lower.

@ BearGirl
As Persephone worked to create her human disguise, a small smile slowly formed on Hade's lips. This was most likely the first time the young goddess was to step foot on the human world. Into a human city, the mere thought was quite enlightening to the dark god himself, with how often he walks the alley's of the human world, he's assumed all gods have.

"You look exquisite." Hades said quietly as he stood, and in a blink of an eye, He was in his disguise. Tall, broad shoulders, and still screaming confidence as his clothing changed to that of a high ranking military man. Moving towards Persephone, Hades ran a hand through the young woman's hair and tucking a couple of strands behind her ear before he gently placed his hand on the side of her face. His thumb running along her soft bottom lip. "Except, I would have chosen clothing fit for a princess more so then this merchant dress." He told her, honestly,

Slowly, the King of Hell steps away from his lovely goddess and offers her his arm. "Now, you need to think of a name for yourself," Hades told the young woman as he started to slowly lead her out of her office. Rather she accepted his arm or not made no difference, she'll have to follow if she wants to get on the carriage and to a human city.

Stepping out of the Palace, Hades led the young woman towards the carriage. Opening the door for her, and helping her in. It looked like a normal carriage to the human eye, but if one was really a god, they'd be able to notice that the hooves of the horses were on fire and that they had a flare of evil in their eyes that screamed of all of the horrible things that they have seen while down in hell. "Ready?" Hades asked as soon as he got into the carriage with his beautiful bride, a slight ping of anxiousness filling him as he couldn't wait to see what she thought of the human's world.

@ FallenHope95

The young goddess' eyes widened slightly as she watched Hades change in a blink of an eye. It was hard not to find it impressive, especially when she had just been struggling with the disguise. Though that thought quickly left her as Hades came over and pushed the strands of her hair behind her ear. It caused her face to soften at the act, but as he ran his thumb along the bottom of her lip, Persephone felt her breath leave her for a moment. How strange it was that the God of Death would be so gentle with her. But he was still quite straightforward as well. Persephone knew what he wanted, and it would be obvious even if he had said nothing.

"I thought we were trying to be inconspicuous?" Persephone asked him softly. Her eyes dropped from his for a moment as her thoughts shifted a bit. With Hades' thumb on her lip, she was getting the strange urge to nip at his skin.

As Hades took a step away from her, Persephone took a deep breath before taking his arm. Her fingers pressed into him gently as he led her out of the office. "A name?" Persephone murmured softly, speaking mostly to herself as she did so. The thought had not crossed her mind, but of course, it made sense. She could not tell the mortals that her name was Persephone. It would cause the wrong kind of attention. "What is your human name?"

Taking Hades' hand, Persephone headed into the carriage with ease. She sat down on one side and folded her hands together as she waited for Hades to join her. "Yes, I am ready," Persephone told Hades with a rather large smile. She was extremely excited to see the human world, only having been able to see bits and pieces of it where no mortal was. "How does Iliana sound?"
