Diane Cypress is being blackmailed, and there's nothing she can do about it. After being threatened by her boss, Jeff Olympia, she must sell her daughter's hand in marriage to Jeff's brother, the leader of an underground mafia... if she doesn't? She and her daughter would live in the worst conditions imaginable for the rest of their days. After hearing about the terms, Diane agrees. Her daughter would only be married in name and would have to come running if her husband called her. At least she would be living with Diane at home... or so she thinks. After the deal goes awry and Diane gets screwed over, how far will she go to find her daughter? *a retelling of Hades and Persephone*
