Star Crossed: The Idol King & Empress of Evil

.... "The fates will curse you to a life of hell." She stared those loathsome eyes. Her very being screamed from inside. Her hate knew no bounds. And yet...and yet...why was he looking at her like that? Why did he not hate her? Why was there sadness in his eyes? Why? "I'd rather take a million years in hell!" she spat out. "Yes...I did it. I killed your most precious person." She flashed a manic smile. "You'll suffer for the rest of your life...Emperor. And nothing makes me happier..." Her mad laughter echoed throughout the palace, etching a bone chilling fear into the hearts of everyone who was present that day. The evil Empress had fallen. ..... Wang Shina was shunned and exiled from her palace by her husband, Emperor Kang, and his concubine for an unforgivable crime. Evil, manipulative and cunning, Wang Shina only knows one thing: hatred. And she wasted no time in admitting her guilt. After committing the horrendous crime to oust her husband from power, she was cursed by the kingdom's most powerful shaman: she will have to live as an old woman by the day and will change back to her real appearance during the night. And she will keep on living this cursed life for years until she finishes the task of changing the fates of 500 couples over the years. Now, almost centuries later, Wang Shina goes by the name Cherry and is out to complete her mission after which, she can die in peace. Finally on her last mission, Wang Shina receives the last couple's names whose fates she will rewrite. Enter Shin Jinhyun, a popular idol and the country's Idol King who is fated to be with Sung Yoona as per Wang Shina's task. But fate plays a cruel joke as Jinhyun and Yoona turn out to be the reincarnations of Cherry's ex-husband and his mistress. And furthermore, Jinhyun's heart has room for only one girl: the lady in red, Wang Shina. *Cover belongs to the author. Please don't copy*

An Arrival (6)

Heo Taehyun was in his study, playing his guitar. The instrument felt alien in his hands because for the past one hour, he had been trying to string a tune. The music composition was complete and the lyrics were ready too. Yet, he could not play the tune nor could he sing it.

He tried to concentrate hard on his song. It was the song he had been preparing for years and yet, never sung it. His hands were playing a random melody which would be soothing to untrained ears but the wayward music would be scoffed at by an experienced singer.

"FUCK!" he screamed and smashed the guitar on the floor. He kept on smashing it until it broke into pieces. The wood was scattered on the floor while the strings came off. Taehyun was fuming in frustration as he tore off all the notes on his table.

His screams cause Jinyoung to come rushing into the room. He glanced around the messy place and then to his boss who was obviously under extreme tension.
