They say love is eternal. They lied. Five thousand years ago, in the golden sands of Arabia, there lived a man named Ashraf - a warrior, a poet, a lover. His heart belonged to a woman so pure, so breathtaking, that even the gods grew jealous of what they could never have. But envy is a cruel thing. It slithered through the winds of fate, and in one brutal night, Ashraf's world turned to ash. The woman he loved... gone. Stolen by betrayal, swallowed by death. He prayed. He begged. He screamed until his throat bled. But when the heavens offered him no mercy, Ashraf turned his rage to the shadows. He made a vow - a curse whispered into the underworld - and gave away his soul for a single promise: To find her again. To love her again. Even if it meant becoming a monster. And so Ashraf died... and Azrael the demon was born. For five thousand years, he roamed the dark, waiting. Watching. Burning. In the underworld. Until Lena - a girl with trembling hands, a lonely heart, and a foolish belief in magic - whispered an ancient spell she never thought would work. The ground trembled. The air cracked. And in that single, blinding moment, their worlds collided. She wanted love. She got him instead. And now she has to complete a love story she never started.
