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?

''About that boy?" Elias raised an eyebrow. He held her hands gently, his thumb stroking the back of her palms, ''For someone who sent candies for you, who was curious about your likes and dislikes, who liked stealing glances, how could he grow apart from you that easily? Maybe all those years when you both were apart, he used to think of you as well. He used to imagine what it would be like to go back to you. But when he came back, you were no longer the same. Your younger self was just hidden somewhere beneath that aloof exterior you put so he was determined to win your heart once again. Maybe you were wrong all along?"

Marlene's eyes teared up. Growing up, she was taught to be a good daughter-in-law and a proper duchess, not a wife. And she did not realize when she was molded into it, when she became so aloof. ''I regretted it,'' a soft sob left her mouth, ''I regretted talking so harshly to you before I left the Kingdom with Esme and Arlan.''
