Ensnaring his Dark Moon

Esmeray Reis, once a princess, now lives her life like a bespectacled wallflower to stay far away from people's attention until one day she is compelled to enter the Royal Castle disguised as a maid. Aleister Daven, a mysterious Prince. Dark, devious, and sinful. The mention of his name is enough to make people tremble. Uninterested in most things until he comes across the stubborn woman who won't spare a glance his way. And unknowingly he grows fond of stalking her, teasing her, cornering her, despite her obvious disgust in him. She is his, and he would spare no efforts in making her realize that. When strange incidents happen around Esme, she finds herself waking up in the depths of the ageless sea. Mysterious powers awakening inside her body threaten to shred away her existence and rationality. The involvement of merfolk makes everything more complicated. Staying far away from him was all she ever wished but what was she going to do when he becomes the sole ray of light in the darkness surrounding her? Will she take his hand? Will she ever tell him that it was not him who disgusted her but instead it was her growing obsession for him that she despised?

He survived...

In the next moment, a glow illuminated the room as a woman stepped inside while holding the candle, 'It's you…?' The candle dropped from Adeline's hand when she saw the gory scene on the bed. 

It took her some time to realize that…. her sister-in-law and the child had been slaughtered. 

Marilyn was disappointed that she could not kill Adeline as people rushed to the room hearing the noise but at least… the child was dead. 

With a satisfied smirk on her face, she extended her hand towards Adeline, a black thread seeping out of her finger, aiming at Adeline's heart. 

Blood spurted out of her mouth.

'She will die,' Aunt Greta told Marilyn, 'No one can save her.' 

Marilyn opened the portal and disappeared from the place as the people rushed in. 

But what she did not know at that moment was that instead of killing Adeline's son, she had killed King Alexander's son along with his wife.
