🌙 The Curse of Winter 🌙 Dark Fantasy · Gothic Horror · Tragic Romance In the heart of an endless winter, where the wind screams and the earth lies buried in white, a mansion stands in silence. Its halls are frozen, its walls heavy with secrets, and within it sleeps a man whose name is spoken only in whispers- a prince turned monster, cursed to awaken with the first snow. His heart beats with ice. His touch steals breath. And yet his eyes burn with a loneliness that even time could not kill. When YN stumbles into his world, she becomes the flame in his frozen night. But fire cannot survive long in the arms of winter. To love him is to wither. To save him is to die. Still, she steps closer. Because some souls are bound by more than fate- they are bound by sacrifice, by sorrow, by a love that even death cannot silence. "His heart is made of ice. Mine is the fire that will burn away." "To love him is to freeze, to save him is to die." "Winter cursed him. My warmth awakened him." "Every snowflake carries his name... and my fate." "He is the monster born of winter-yet I cannot look away."
