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?

And it did not take her much time to understand why he was saying that and who must have instilled such thoughts in his head.

When Cardan started interacting with his mother, she must have clouded his mind with her darkness. 

''My mother was not fond of those people.'' 

Esme sighed, ''So they had to die for her?" 

Cardan did not say anything as he passed her the fish, ''See if it suits your taste.'' 

As Esme took the fish from his hand, her heart was filled with conflicted thoughts. Is this why Aleister forgave Cardan for everything? 

Because, at that moment, she too had no idea if the man should be hated or pitied? Painful as it was to imagine the good people dying, the bad person staying alive to reflect on his sins and reminiscing all the goodness they showered on him was heart-wrenching as well. 

The place sunk in silence as the both of them ate the fish, lost in their own thoughts.
