Dark Salvation

Hell is empty and all the devils are here. Shakespeare – [The Tempest] As a form of punishment for mistakenly killing an innocent civilian, Song Zhuyu, a priest and part-time exorcist, found himself exiled to the distant shores of Shenci Island, hundreds of miles away from his hometown and the only city he had ever known his whole life. However, unbeknownst to anyone, he harbored a secret agenda— to hunt down the culprit who had turned his life upside down. Fully prepared for meeting danger at every turn, what he encountered instead was a beautiful, serene island, albeit with two strange ironclad rules: First, do not climb the hill after 1 AM. Second, do not interact with Rui Ye. On the first night of his stay, Song Zhuyu broke two of the taboos, only to discover that the infamous Rui Ye was nothing like he had expected. “I am cursed,” the blind, beautiful man told him with a wistful smile. “If you associate yourself with me, the curse will haunt you too.” In response, Song Zhuyu’s lips hooked into a careless smile, “I don’t think you have to worry about that. I, myself, am cursed as well. What’s the big deal about adding another one?” But as inexplicable deaths began to plague the island, Song Zhuyu realized that the island, including the helpless and soft-hearted Rui Ye he had come to know, held a far darker secret than he could've ever imagined. In a race against time, he must navigate the treacherous waters of deceit and betrayal to unravel the island’s sinister truth and achieve his goal before it's too late. *** Pretty, flirtatious yet heartless priest gong x blind, mysterious and cursed shou Additional tags: gong/seme/top protagonist, action, mystery, suspense, horror, psychological, thriller, dark elements, angel and demons, slow romance, murder, crime, beautiful protagonist, older love interest, 1 vs 1, dubcon, supernatural creatures, exorcism, tragedy, past plays a big part Find me on: Instagram: delanasiwarka Discord server: bit.ly/delanadiscord

Two Souls

When Chen Ru came to again, the first things he noticed was the distinct scent of soil coming from the ground he was laying on, the chorus of crickets filling the night air, and numbing ache that pulsated throughout his entire body. 

For a while, he lay there, staring vacantly at the beautiful full moon high up in the sky through the gaps of the wooden bars before him. 

Wait… wooden bars?

Panic surged within him as memories of the previous incident flooded back. Ignoring the agony coursing through his body, he attempted to sit up, only to groan out loud when a sharp and searing pain shot through his side. It hurt so much that a gasp was punched out of him, tears squeezing out of his eyes. 

"You're awake?" Song Zhuyu's voice reached his ears, as composed and casual as ever. "Don't move around just yet. I don't know how severe your injuries are."

"F–Father Song?" Chen Ru looked around, his vision slowly adjusting to the darkness.
