Dark Salvation

Hell is empty and all the devils are here. Shakespeare – [The Tempest] As a form of punishment for mistakenly killing an innocent civilian, Song Zhuyu, a priest and part-time exorcist, found himself exiled to the distant shores of Shenci Island, hundreds of miles away from his hometown and the only city he had ever known his whole life. However, unbeknownst to anyone, he harbored a secret agenda— to hunt down the culprit who had turned his life upside down. Fully prepared for meeting danger at every turn, what he encountered instead was a beautiful, serene island, albeit with two strange ironclad rules: First, do not climb the hill after 1 AM. Second, do not interact with Rui Ye. On the first night of his stay, Song Zhuyu broke two of the taboos, only to discover that the infamous Rui Ye was nothing like he had expected. “I am cursed,” the blind, beautiful man told him with a wistful smile. “If you associate yourself with me, the curse will haunt you too.” In response, Song Zhuyu’s lips hooked into a careless smile, “I don’t think you have to worry about that. I, myself, am cursed as well. What’s the big deal about adding another one?” But as inexplicable deaths began to plague the island, Song Zhuyu realized that the island, including the helpless and soft-hearted Rui Ye he had come to know, held a far darker secret than he could've ever imagined. In a race against time, he must navigate the treacherous waters of deceit and betrayal to unravel the island’s sinister truth and achieve his goal before it's too late. *** Pretty, flirtatious yet heartless priest gong x blind, mysterious and cursed shou Additional tags: gong/seme/top protagonist, action, mystery, suspense, horror, psychological, thriller, dark elements, angel and demons, slow romance, murder, crime, beautiful protagonist, older love interest, 1 vs 1, dubcon, supernatural creatures, exorcism, tragedy, past plays a big part Find me on: Instagram: delanasiwarka Discord server: bit.ly/delanadiscord

Don't Be Afraid*

The seraphim, who 'tasted' for the first time, was stunned by the sudden astringency that flooded every inch of his newly constructed mouth. It was a flavor so intense and explosive that even his teeth ached and the tip of his feathers shook, creating another strong gust in the area. 

Disbelief washed over him. How did the little mortal manage to consume this fruit without batting an eyelid? For the very first time, a semblance of awe and admiration arose in the seraphim's heart. Then, as seconds ticked by, he quickly adapted to the tartness, enough to savor the hint of sweetness that lingered on the tip of his tongue. Once again, he was taken aback. Was this what humans called 'complex layers of taste'? The little strawberry might scare people with its sourness at first, but gradually, the sweet flavor would dominate, striking a perfect and delicate balance that tickled the taste buds.

It was quite an unforgettable taste.

…Even making one wish for more.
