Serendipity's Embrace: Love Beyond Fates

Chapter 1 (A Favour)

"Ugh..." Azazel groaned.

He slowly opened his eyes to see an unfamiliar ceiling above him, the bright sun shining through the white curtains he never bought.

"What the?" He mumbled.

The bed was soft but harder than usual, and it feels bigger too. He slowly sat up as he looked around the room, it was cold. He felt the cold blanket touching his skin and his long black hair in a tangled mess.

Where are his clothes? What the fuck happened last night? He couldn't recall.

He looked to his side where a man was sleeping next to him.

"No way..." Azazel's eyes widened.

He quickly jumped out of bed and tried to find a bathroom beforehand dropping onto the floor. His legs were shaking while his back was torturing him with pain. He slowly stood up with the bed as support.

With each step toward the bathroom, he couldn't escape the sensation of a sticky, gooey substance oozing down his trembling legs. He looked into the mirror to see hundreds of small hickeys around his neck and chest with more bite marks.

The flow of the sticky substance down his thighs intensified, Azazel didn't want to do it but got up his courage and scooped up a bit of it from his legs. The substance, white and thick between his fingers, revealed a chilling truth that Azazel instantly recognized.

"What the fuck?!" He shouted before covering his mouth up with his other hand and keeping the one he used far away from his face.

Azazel slowly looked out the bathroom door to check if the guy was awake. Luckily, he was still asleep.

Azazel crept back to the room to get his clothes that were scattered all over the floor. He ran out of the bedroom, walking everywhere trying to find a door to get out.

He quickly found the main door and dashed to it as soon as he saw it, he didn't even give a fuck with body dying already, he just had to get out.

He almost grabbed the door handle before a voice behind him made him stop.

"Going already, honey?"

Azazel turned around to see one of his students' older brother.

"Last night was..." Jake said.

"It's alright, Jake," Azazel replied with a panic. "I mean K-Kreo. It's alright Kreo,"

Kreo quickly noticed something was wrong. He took a step back and let Azazel breathe for a moment.

"Do you want to sit for a while before you go?" Kreo asked.

"Well..." Azazel answered as he slowly walked away from the door.

Two years ago, at the age of 17, Azazel Everlim's world was shattered when his family fell victim to a brutal murder. He seeked his vengeance by killing the man but made a terrible wish.

In a world where humans were given extraordinary powers, but all too soon became corrupted and fell into darkness, Queen Marylin made a system to restore order. As the first child born into the hero family would be chosen, this system would select one villain, tasked with maintaining balance and peace. The rules were simple, the villain's life must come to an end in the hands of the hero.

Azazel found himself in the role of the villain, his heart heavy with the weight of his tragic past. But fate had more in store for him than he could have imagined. A twist of bad luck brought him into a forbidden encounter with Kreo James, the hero chosen to bring him down.
