In a reversed world , where demons become angels, vampires as prophets, witches as saints and Lucifer as God.

Lies a strange girl trapped in a fortress, her beauty wrecks havoc all through out the land. A prophecy once told whomever ask for the lady's hand shall be banished to the depths of hell. So no one dared not even a single soul comes close to her. She's but all a blessing and a curse for who could ever learn to love a maiden with such cruel fate.


This mistress dressed in velvet lace while gazing to that distant star her dreams filled with adventures to escape this horrid place and to meet a man who can save her from damnation. 

She heard the sound of harpsichord coming from an old chapel.


"What a lovely sound, but I could never step on a sacred ground" she said as she sighed.


Her sister Eve entering to her chamber."Such sullen face not proper for my dearly beloved, shall I help you escape ? as her sister suggested.


"For real, I'll be forever in your debt" she smiled while hugging her sister.

At the Chapel


Following the mysterious sound as she opens the door there she finds a man, seating on the piano with eyes closed, his hands caressing the keys like crystals with every tune her heart falls too soon.


"Here he is my Gothic mate, my Gothic prince, the Knight of the night".
In the glistening moon she swears in her thoughts.


He opens his eyes and lay on such enthralling beauty."Would you do me the honor of giving your name, my lady?" he asked.


She's about to say something but not a word would come out from her mouth, too stunned to be spoken of by a man.


"Perhaps, angels like you have no names, only beautiful faces"


She blushed and finally utter, "Lilith, you can call me Lily".


He held out his hand and said, "Lily a name ever written in the mouths of poet. I'm Adam and I'm truly grateful to have met you.


From then on this encounter has started the blossoming affair of two naive being that led to a twisted denouement.
