Another complicated and sad part of the storyline is when Persephone is raped by Apollo and the conflicted thoughts of Persephone over a college scholarship that needs her to avoid sex.

One dramatic scene is when Persephone meets Apollo, who is instantly attracted to Persephone. Persephone was not interested in him. However, Apollo does not like rejection, and he thinks he can take what he wants, which leads to raping her and taking photos.

Apollo thinks he is entitled to having Persephone, despite being rejected by her constantly. However, in the last episode of Season 1, Apollo goes after Daphne, Persephone’s friend. When Persephone discovers this, she gives a warning to Apollo to stay away.
