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?

Healing him

But now that she thought about it, Aleister is the strongest person she has encountered so far. Who could injure him like this? And by any chance, was it related to her? And what did he mean by she was not a human? 

It must be a joke. She forcefully stopped her racing thoughts. 

Apparently, the person who had answers to her questions was holding a grudge against her so he refused to talk to her.

She placed his hand around her neck and wrapped an arm around his waist, ''Hold me tightly,'' she said as she tried to pull him up.

He got to his feet, relying on the last bit of remaining strength in his body. Aleister leaned back on the wall, ''Why would I hold onto something that is more than willing to run away from me?''

Knowing that he was referring to the matter of her going back to her kingdom, she kept quiet about it. ''You are heavy,'' she mumbled after some time as she tried to drag him towards the bed, ''Heavier than you seem to be.''
