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?

"Mhm... I had so much wine. Why can I still see everything straight?" Esme mumbled under her breath as she walked in the hallway, making her way towards Aleister's room, "Was that wine not potent? Why am I not drunk?" she pouted as she pushed the door.

She was greeted by the sight of his broad back as soon as the door opened. Aleister was pacing around the room. 

As if he noticed her presence, he turned around to look at her, ''Did you go somewhere?'' He asked while scanning her from head to toe. 

''What are you doing?" Esme glanced at the man who was staring at her intently. 

''I was making sure that you are fine. What else?" 

Her heart fluttered at his words even though she wished it didn't. You still know how to make sure that I am fine, huh?
