A/N: Today is national lingerie day! I wanted to write a little chapter where Persephone goes out to buy some. I will be posting a drawing to go with this chapter soon, on my instagram
Artemis: 'Where are you? You haven't been home in two days.'
Persephone stared at her phone. She didn't want to lie to Artemis but she knew the archer would not understand. What would she do? Come down here herself? Send Apollo? Tell her Mother? She swallowed back her nausea.
She exited out of the text and opened the following thread she had with Eros.
Persephone: 'Hey! Have you talked to Artemis lately?'
Just as she set her phone down it blared out with a call from the God of Love.
"Hey!"
"OH now you say hello!" She heard a bark from Ares in the back asking who he was talking to. Thankfully Eros ignored him.
"So, sweetie. What's this about Artemis? Is she in trouble?"
"No. She isn't.. I just haven't been home for a few days and I was wondering if I could tell her I've been staying with you?" She wasn't sure why she hadn't thought of it before. Her gut bubbled nervously in anticipation.
His pause felt like an eternity. "That depends… Where ARE you staying?"
"With Hades…" She muffled her voice against the receiver hoping he wouldn't understand her but not question her further.
"OH MY GOD PERSEPHONE. DETAILS NOW!" She heard him almost flutter off the ground in excitement and it eased the knot in her stomach slightly.
She was about to answer when she heard Ares scream from the back,
'Let me talk to her!'
'No GO AWAY.'
'GIMME THE PHONE.'
"GAH GET AWAY- Persephone, I'll be there in about- NO DAD YOU'RE THE WORST."
And the line cut out.
"Sugar snaps!" The Goddess jumped to her feet and rushed to the closet. She still didn't have any proper clothes, and Hades had already left for work. Her internship was that afternoon and she had forgotten to ask him what to do about laundry. She had been contemplating swinging by the apartment she shared with Artemis but she hadn't sorted out what to say yet.
Persephone to Eros: 'Would you have anything laying around that I might be able to wear? I need to get some clothes today.'
Even though he hadn't actually answered her, she felt it was a safe bet and she opened the text from Artemis.
Persephone: 'Hey! I'm so sorry! I've been crashing with Eros.'
Artemis: 'OK. I was about to send Apollo out to find you. You missed the TGOEM meeting yesterday. I covered for you but I can't do that again. Are you ok?'
She felt a lead ball drop into the pit of her stomach at the mention of Apollo. She took a deep breath and slowly typed out her response.
Persephone: 'Yes. Thank you. I will tell you about it when I see you next.'
That would buy her time, right? Maybe Eros could help her work out what to say.
She closed out of the text and her phone pinged again.
Hades: 'Hey Little Goddess. How is your morning?'
She felt her face split in a grin from ear to ear.
Persephone: 'Would be better if you were here. I'm going to see Eros before coming in. I have to pick up some actual clothes.'
Hades: 'Do I get pictures of what you pick? In the black box in the closet there is a card. Get anything you need.'
Persephone: 'Anything you think I should get?' She wasn't comfortable using Hades card, but maybe if he asked for something specific she could justify it.
Hades: 'Something that would look good on the floor next to our bed.'
Persephone flushed and dropped her phone.
Our bed?
-KNOCK KNOCK-
-BARKbarkbarkbarkbarkbarkbarkbarkbarkbark-
"OH!" She wrapped one of Hades' white button ups around her body and rushed down the stairs, navigating through a field of barking landmines.
"SO GOOD TO SEE YOU!" Eros shouted, sweeping her up into a tight embrace.
"How have you been? How is Psyche?" Persephone half expected the disguised nymph to be with him.
"She's helping my mom with something. She is good. We are good. How are you? How is…" He trailed off, noticing the forest of plum trees still newly blossomed in the living room. Even though they had rooted up through the floor, and completely destroyed the beautiful stone work, they looked very nice.
"I see you've done some... redecorating."
Persephone tugged at the sleeves of her shirt nervously, wondering if he could sense what had happened here. He must have noticed her unease because he chuckled and passed her a bag. "Psyche is lending you this. She will need it back so you can't let ol' Underworld rip it off, mkay?"
"Thank you! I'll be right back. Make yourself at home!"
"You mean like how you've made yourself at home?" She heard him snark from the other room.
The Olympus mall was surprisingly crowded for it being the middle of the day on a weekday. They snacked happily and chit chatted while Eros dragged her from store to store forcing her to try things on.
"You realize I need ACTUAL clothes!" She teased from behind the fitting room door. He shoved her in with armfuls of scantily clad outfits and barely there lingerie.
She slipped out of the dress lended to her from Psyche and pulled on a white babydoll that was nearly sheer save for the lace decorating the bust. She was wearing a pair of lace white panties that she had already purchased, with white thigh highs clipped into a matching garter.
"How does this look?" She opened the door and stepped out. Eros shot to his feet, his eyes sparkling. "This is perfect! He's going to love it!"
She pulled out her phone and took a picture.
Persephone: 'What do you think of this one?'
-PAUSE-
Hades: 'Can you come in early?'
Persephone walked into Tower II, and up to the King's floor. A beautiful svelte nymph with shimmering golden skin and a towering bun of lilac hair greeted her warmly. She saw a badge pinned to her chest.
"Hello, Ptelea! Is Hades in?"
"You must be Persephone! His Majesty stepped out for a moment but he let me know you would be here. You are welcome to head back."
"Thank you!"
She entered the room and snapped the door shut behind her. His office bore a striking resemblance to the one he had in his house, before she had destroyed it, of course.
His walls were decorated with beautiful and abstract splashes of cool color. His furniture was made of rich woods, luxurious metals and handsome leathers.
She set her bag on the velvety and polished couch, before shedding her coat and draping it over the arm.
She had never done anything like this before, and excitement bubbled over in her stomach.
"Yes Thantanos, let me just grab that for you." She heard Hades' voice just as the door cracked open. Thankfully the King's body blocked the God of Death from seeing anything.
"ACTUALLY! I'll have Ptelea bring that up to you in a few. That will be all." He slammed the door behind him and promptly locked it.
"Well. Hello there, Little Goddess."
"You asked me to come early, Sir."
"I did. I did. Thank you for being so.. Obedient."
"Anything for my King."
He took in her outfit. She was wearing the very same one from the photo. He noticed her jacket behind her and felt himself ease. As much as he enjoyed her here, like this- he didn't want her to have any trouble with walking around like that.
The white was crisp and clean against her flushed pink skin. The lace that hugged her bosom was decorated with tiny scintillating crystals. They felt raw and familiar. He could have weaved them in himself and he suddenly regretted not having done so.
"So…" He strode over to her, his hands ghosting over the skin of her bare arms. She felt her body flit out a shiver. "I got the cost for my office repair and you owe me quite a few more spankings. I was hoping we could begin to settle this debt."
A bold elixir pulsed through her and she dropped to her knees. She noticed his body stiffen but he didn't move.
"I was thinking I could help repay you another way." Her fingers smoothed over the posh shine of his belt. "Alongside our agreement, of course." She pulled the leather from the buckle and slid the accessory from his pantloops.
Hades felt his mouth go dry. Minthe never- not without an exasperated discussion that left him less than wanting anyway.
He cleared his throat weakly, "I'm listening."
Her eyes flashed for a moment and resembled perfectly cut garnets before phasing back to their sweet and hopeful roseate.
She willed the shaking from her fingertips and popped open the button of his pants, and started easing down the zipper tooth by tooth. He was already hard. She could feel his length pulsing against her wrist.
She slid her hands in and pulled his torrid cock out from it's confines. He let escape an indulgent sigh as the cool air appeased the searing heat of his member.
Hades had to stop himself from grabbing her hair and forcing himself though her plump lips. He couldn't halt the aching cry that labored past his own, however.
His skin was an impossibly smooth velvet, contrasted by the straining hardness and heat. She noticed a pearl of precum beading at the tip. She smoothed it over with her thumb and was encouraged by his hiss.
"Are you sure, little one?" His eyes were half lidden with lust, seeking verification.
Another pearl emerged and she eased it away with a curious lick.
"Do I look unsure?" Her fingers traced the perfect iron lines of his tailored trousers up to the hem before ripping them unceremoniously down to his ankles. Hades groaned and fisted her short hair. She took his cock in both hands and gave it a firm squeeze.
Persephone clenched her thighs together, quelling the desire ebbing beneath the lace of her underwear. She lifted his member with both hands and ran her tongue along the underside, skillfully, her tongue then swirling around the thick head, lapping up another bead of nectar.
A pleasant humm emitted from the King's throat, his eyes lidded but never leaving the delicious vision submitted before him.
His thumb whisked away her bangs and pet her forehead into her hairline lovingly. Her eyes were closed, brow furrowed in concentration. He noticed the tensing and squirming of her lower body. He vowed to not let her leave until his lips were dripping with the drink of her release.
Her eyes snapped open, glinted garnet. She pulled up and back in an easy stroke before she plunged forward and choked on his length.
Hades seized her head in both hands and rocked until he heard a gag. The vibration from her throat coursed up him and brust from his lips in a strangled yell.
"Easy Baby…" His resolve was depleting but he forced himself to still. He pet her hair absently, only to grip it as she opened her throat and swallowed around him.
'What had she learned while she was out with Eros?' He inquired personally with another flush of arousal paired with a stab of mollycoddling.
She gripped his hips and thrust him into her wanting mouth, her cheeks hollowing in an even suction when she pulled back and released him with a small pop.
"Shit shit shit shit." He breathed, bobbing the head of his cock against her swollen lips again. She smiled up at him innocently before resuming her ministrations, this time allowing him to be the one to buck into the soft, wet, heat.
She circled her fingers around his shaft with one hand and let it grip and move with the fluid pump of his hips.
He was getting close. The spring in his stomach was coiling tight, on the brink of surrender. He felt her other hand snake up in between his thighs and gently start to massage that taut line of his sac.
"I'm close." He gasped, attempting to hold back the white hot flood erupting in his center. "Where?" He barked in desperation. She opened her glittering eyes and with a brisk nod she swallowed around him once more.
"FUCK, KORE." He shouted against his better judgement, feeling the pulse of blinding euphoria empty into her eager mouth.
She released his cock with another small pop and wiped the overflow of release from her lips with the back of her hand.
Hades stumbled into the couch and sank down. His head was swimming in jubilation. He couldn't remember the last time he came that hard.
Persephone rose to her feet and pulled the lingerie over her head. Hades felt his overly sensitive cock start to swell again. He pulled her onto his lap and greeted her with an earnest kiss. He tasted himself on her tongue and felt a throb of titillation.
"You're going to be the end of me, Kitten." He purred, pecking her blushing chest with a map of his appreciation.
She moaned into his hair, rocking her hips lightly. The mist from her sex soaked through her lace, reawakening The King's appetite.
"HADES!" Hecate barked through the door.
-KNOCK-
"HADES! IS SHE IN THERE WITH YOU?"
-POUNDING-
"SHUT IT PTELEA! HADES SO HELP ME GODS THERE IS A POMEGRANATE TREE GROWING OUT OF MY DESK."
