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?

He shook his head, ''For years, no,'' he sighed, ''It was a lie that you lived in the sea all this while. You used to live on the land, Es. I saw you again when my elder brother Marcus got hold of a piece of information that one of our kind is living out there on the land. He is responsible for bringing creatures like us who have somehow strayed to the land, back to the sea.''

Esme closed her eyes, ''And? How did you know it was me?" she hugged her knees, bringing them closer to his chest.

''During all these years, every time he caught a mermaid from the land and brought them back to the sea, I asked him about their physical attributes. I could not help but hope it was you everytime I heard he was bringing someone. Red hair, grey eyes, recognizing you from his description was not hard, Es. You are one of a kind,'' Jeremiah looked at her in adoration, ''You stand out in a crowd full of people. Be it on the land, or in the sea.''
