Synopsis Lin Wei writes dark romance that sells. His readers want more. They want real fear. Real curses. Something that follows them home. Ignoring every warning, he travels to Black Lantern Village-a place the maps erased and the living still fear. There he meets Shen Yichen, an elegant, world-weary exorcist who has spent years walking the thin line between the living and the dead. What begins as research becomes survival. Ghosts wear familiar faces. A centuries-old curse called Red Lotus hungers for new blood. And every night the boundary grows thinner. As danger closes in, so does something far more dangerous than any spirit: the slow, inevitable pull between a writer chasing darkness and the man who has lived inside it too long. In a village where love and death have always shared the same face, Lin Wei and Shen Yichen must decide whether the story will save them... or claim them both. Some curses are written in blood. Others are written in the heart. orginal Work of Author Ek .
