"Look at me properly and try to remember." He implored her, his silvery eyes boring into hers. Maya raised her nervous eyes to meet his. Searching her head, she tried to remember where she may have met this man before. As she stared at him, a sense of familiarity began to settle. Those eyes... she'd seen them before. Where has she seen them? One by one, the images came. The pictures from a time she had forgotten. She had helped someone with eyes just like this. Still in his embrace, a daunting realisation began to set in. She'd met this man before. Long before he even dreamed of being a king... **************** A tyrant king conquers a kingdom so he can get married to her forgotten princess. People expect a marriage filled with strife and everything but none of that happens. Instead he treats her right, worships her and kisses the very ground she walks on. Why is that? People wonder. The reason is quite simple. Years ago, the same princess had saved his life from the bitter hands of death when he was betrayed by his half brother, the crown prince of Madonia.

!WARNING: BRUTAL (EMOTIONAL)! "If I betray my country I betray myself and my country is very dear to me." "Dearer than me?" "No not dearer than you" ♤♤♤♤ A mafia boss who has never experienced love and spreads negativity in his life encounters a girl who shares a similar fate but sees the positive side in everything. However, appearances can be deceiving, isn't that right? ----- Guys, just so you don't misunderstand, I understand dark romance to be more than just smut (actually I dont like this much smut), but also about character development, setting, and choices.
