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?

A good person

''What if she truly was my mother? What if all her words were true?" Luciana clutched the material of his shirt. It was so real, her voice, her tears… It was her mother, not an illusion. 

''You miss her. You want her back desperately but it was not her,'' Cardan said it like he could read her soul. He kissed her shoulder, ''Deep down, even you know that she was not your mother.'' 

Luciana tilted her head back to look at him. 

''She looked the same as the last time you had seen her on her deathbed, didn't she? She hasn't aged a day, she was wearing those same clothes, her hair was the same, her face…'' 

''Stop,'' she gasped. 

''The woman you saw was your heart's projection on the mirror. Do you know why her voice sounded distant in your ears? That's because you are forgetting her voice. And she disappeared so early because she is faint in your mind. As you grow up, you are forgetting your mother.''
