Hades King of the Underworld

The gods whisper that even the King of the Underworld cannot escape fate. For centuries, Hades has ruled the realm of the dead with unwavering authority, feared by mortals and immortals alike. Though countless souls pass through his kingdom, none have ever stirred his cold, immortal heart. Pressured by the Fates to choose a queen before an ancient prophecy comes to pass, Hades reluctantly begins searching for a bride worthy of standing beside the throne of the Underworld. His search leads him unexpectedly to the world above. You are nothing more than a mortal woman—or so everyone believes. Living an ordinary life, you have no idea why shadows seem to bend toward you, why flowers bloom in impossible places beneath your feet, or why death itself has always treated you with an unusual kindness. When Hades first sees you, he cannot explain the pull you have on him. You are unlike anyone he has ever encountered: unafraid of the darkness, compassionate toward the forgotten, and carrying a mystery even the gods cannot unravel. What begins as curiosity quickly becomes obsession, and the stoic King of the Underworld finds himself returning to the mortal realm again and again, determined to uncover the truth behind the woman who has awakened something he thought long dead. As Olympus watches with growing suspicion and ancient enemies begin to stir, you'll be forced to decide whether to remain in the safety of the mortal world—or descend into the Underworld and become the queen destiny has been waiting for.
