What was Demeter's relationship with other gods?

She disliked Hades Demeter had a daughter with her brother Zeus (eww lol) Her daughters name was Persephone and Demeter loved her very much. One day the earth opened up and Hades, god of the underworld reached up and kidnapped Persephone. Demeter wondered around often looking for her, with no luck until one day a god that sees all told her what happened. Demeter asked Zeus, a brother of Hades, to return Persephone. When Zeus refused, Demeter withheld the harvest from man until Zeus relented. He agreed to allow Persephone's return if she had not eaten while with Hades. However, since Persephone had eaten 6 pomegranate seeds in the underworld, Zeus determined that she would spend 6 months with her mother and 6 months with Hades. This is the mythic origin of the six months of spring and summer when Persephone walks the earth with her mother and the 6 months of fall and winter when Persephone must return to the underworld. The pomegranate is still for many a potent symbol of death and renewal. The Elysian Mysteries were public celebrations of the myth of Demeter and Persephone

What is the whole story of Persephone's Capture?

The Abduction of Persephone: Persephone was above ground picking flowers in the spring, and helping the plants grow. Many desired Persephone, for she was one of the most beautiful goddesses in the history of Greek Myths. But, Hades wanted her more than anyone else, so he decided to capture her and bring her down to the underworld. This was known as the Abduction of Persephone, or The Rape of Persephone. While being in the underworld, Persephone didn't eat anything, except a few pomegranate seeds, which Hades had given to her to symbolize their love (even though Persephone hated him). Demeter and Zeus pleaded for Hades to let Persephone go, and he agreed, but only if she hadn't eaten anything in the underworld. As a deal, Hades said Persephone would stay down in the underworld for 1/2 of the year, and be above ground for 1/2 of a year.
