Chapter 2 Thus with a Kiss I'm Doomed
Author's Note:
Jubilations! Exams are finally over and the foundation day was quite a blast. I want to thank blackpen, kaousuu, mad about books, rin-ciacco, euphoricauthor, and Mistress Freesia. You rock guys. I dedicate this chapter to the 3rd year band who should've done acoustics yesterday. Toodles…

OOOOOOOO
"WHAT!!!!"
Demeter bellowed in outrage.
"Yes, mother, I'm going to get married to the Lord of the Underworld."
Sephie replied succinctly with that gamine smile of hers.
"YOU!!" pointing fingers.
"ME?!"
Hades looked incredulous.
"Yes, you! What have you done? You're her uncle for Pete's sake!"
"Uhm… Mom, who's Pete?"
"Oh, hush, Kore."
"I did n-."
Hades noticed Sephie's eyes. They were of the deepest green, like pools he could get lost in. They were begging him not to continue what he's supposed to say. It was not a problem actually for he is drowning in their depths.
"You did what, brother? Hades! You are ogling my daughter. Stop it this instance!"
Demeter was more incensed than ever. Not only did she catch her brother holding her daughter in a very intimate position but they were staring at each other like, did she dare admit it, like lovers…
"Get away from me Sephie." Hissed Hades after he recovered his composure.
"Wait! You need to help me. Believe me, you must."
"Give me a good reason not to throw you away right now…"
Hades darkened his glare. Sephie likes it when he does that. His eyes turn a deeper shade of blue, almost black, like stormy orbs.
"Okay."
She kissed him right then and there. It was just a simple kiss. A meeting of the lips. But it sealed the deal. Demeter saw it, Hades participated in it and Sephie, well let's just say that she's in ecstasy.
"You sorry excuse for a god! Release her at once or I will turn the earth and the heavens against you!!"
Hades was flabbergasted. He was the Lord of the Underworld, Ruler of the Dead, The Rich One, the Hottest of them All, and his sister dared to wage war against him for this puny girl. No one gets away from this without being scathed. For the love of Pete! (Again with the Pete, can anyone tell me who this guy is? Thanks.)
I must extract my revenge! Ahah! I know! If she really loves this 'freak' so much then it's just right that I take her away from you, dear sister. Turn the heavens and the earth against me?! Who are you kidding? I have my own domain and I couldn't care less about your so-called heavens and earth. Watch as I take your precious Kore or Sephie, away from you!
Sephie was fidgeting nervously. She knows her mother very well and this didn't quite bode in a happy ending. It will all crash down in a matter of seconds.
"Let's go."
Hades directed Sephie to his chariot and placed her in font of him as he held the reins. Demeter was frozen. When the hole in the ground opened and Sephie shouted in glee, it all returned to her. She snapped.
"NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!"
