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?

...

As the clock struck 12, Esme opened her eyes. 

She glanced at the ceiling as she panted softly. She slowly raised her hand, running her fingers through her neck. She could feel the sweat on her body. 

She had a dream. But for the first time in her life, she did not have nightmares nor did she see the sea in her dreams. 

She dreamt of... Aleister kissing her. Not once, not twice, again and again. 

Her body was hot. 

Esme removed the sheets from her body and sat up on the bed, feeling the rapid beating of her heart.

She tilted her head to the side and glanced at the bed next to her which was separated by a curtain. 

Esme could see the man's silhouette under the pale glow of moonlight. 

When did he come back? 

She pushed herself to her feet and removed the curtains before walking towards his bed.
