Star Crossed: The Idol King & Empress of Evil

.... "The fates will curse you to a life of hell." She stared those loathsome eyes. Her very being screamed from inside. Her hate knew no bounds. And yet...and yet...why was he looking at her like that? Why did he not hate her? Why was there sadness in his eyes? Why? "I'd rather take a million years in hell!" she spat out. "Yes...I did it. I killed your most precious person." She flashed a manic smile. "You'll suffer for the rest of your life...Emperor. And nothing makes me happier..." Her mad laughter echoed throughout the palace, etching a bone chilling fear into the hearts of everyone who was present that day. The evil Empress had fallen. ..... Wang Shina was shunned and exiled from her palace by her husband, Emperor Kang, and his concubine for an unforgivable crime. Evil, manipulative and cunning, Wang Shina only knows one thing: hatred. And she wasted no time in admitting her guilt. After committing the horrendous crime to oust her husband from power, she was cursed by the kingdom's most powerful shaman: she will have to live as an old woman by the day and will change back to her real appearance during the night. And she will keep on living this cursed life for years until she finishes the task of changing the fates of 500 couples over the years. Now, almost centuries later, Wang Shina goes by the name Cherry and is out to complete her mission after which, she can die in peace. Finally on her last mission, Wang Shina receives the last couple's names whose fates she will rewrite. Enter Shin Jinhyun, a popular idol and the country's Idol King who is fated to be with Sung Yoona as per Wang Shina's task.

The Request (27): Dessert Basket

That evening, Cherry had just changed into her pajamas and grabbed a bowl of chocolate chip ice cream to binge eat while watching her favorite drama. Currently, she was watching a series where a man had just moved to the capital for a job and ended up living in a creepy apartment complex with very strange residents. It was her current favorite since it had a lot of gory scenes along with the added mystery of the inhabitants of the apartment. She had just turned on the TV when the doorbell rang.

She groaned in annoyance because there was only one moron in the world who would intrude on her at this time of the night. Sure enough, when she opened the door, the idiot's annoyingly smiling face popped up.

Jinhyun was beaming happily, holding a basket of cookies and cakes for her as a sign of truce.

"Hi neighbor!" he exclaimed. "Let's-"

The door was slammed shut on his face. Cherry was walking away but her neighbor was like a leech. He rang the bell again.
