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?

''And why do you want to know more about me?" Aleister dropped his hand before he laid back on the bed with his forehead propped on his fist. That same question again.

''I am curious…'' she stopped speaking as she was reminded of the last time when she said this. He told her that he will tell her that when it is more than just curiosity. Esme stood up from the bed under his burning gaze, ''I will get some fresh air in the garden,'' she smoothened the creases on her gown.

Aleister glanced at her back as she ran like she was being chased by monsters. The corner of his lips tugged up briefly before his eyes darkened at the reminder of her words.

'Fins, scales… tail'

That's what she mentioned.

Esme stayed in the garden for a long time. She glanced at the dark sky as the birds returned to their homes.

Earlier, she was flustered so she ran away from Aleister. But now she wondered why was she flustered?
