Women In Chains, by Smidgie. Greek mythology: Hades/Persephone/Menthe. This takes a fairly obscure myth and runs with it, to great effect-it's beautifully dark and angsty, replete with mind games. I like her take on Persephone, hardening gradually under the earth, and her necessarily complicated marriage with Hades. Nothing too explicit-a not-quite-subtle hint of t3h s3xx0rz.

one of my fave Hades and Persephone ... readings... is a poem "Persephone Writes a Letter to Her Mother" by A.E. Stallings

I'll have to save the one you posted and read it later. :)

I need to read that, if only because the title is great. :D
