The power-hungry Resundre of Efisia for three years has waited patiently for three gems of the fabled Celestials to fall into his possession. Finally, he acquires the long-sought-after third gem, but in a different form than the other two. Instead of his guard Jayve, who was solely entrusted the mission of fetching the gems, bringing it back, he instead returns with the Celestial itself, and a new idea hatches in the Resundre's head for how to secure his limitless reign even more firmly.

A short story inspired by book "The Heart of Betrayal" by Mary E. Pearson, video game "Celeste" by Matt Makes Games, video game "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" by Bethesda, and my Catholic faith.

Cover is drawn by me.

But what of the stories cursed by time itself? Where love and betrayal are stitched together so tightly that neither can exist without the other? For centuries, two souls have been ensnared by a curse, their lives bound through time-a love doomed to end in heartbreak, a betrayal destined to be repeated. Their desires are forbidden, tangled in lies, secrets, and blood, with the weight of the past pressing on their present. When these cursed souls meet again, unaware of the history written in their very essence, the cycle begins anew. Old wounds ache with fresh pain. Trust dissolves like smoke. Passion flares into chaos, threatening to consume them both. In a world steeped in deception, can they rewrite their fate, or are they forever chained to their shared ruin? Because in the end, they'll discover one undeniable truth: we all have 𝐂𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐬-some more deadly than others. 𓆩♡𓆪 - 𝐅𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐲/𝐌𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 - 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬 - 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐞𝐬 - 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞

My life began in simplicity. I yearned for what any average girl would dream to become, in a world where expectations flourish, yet still being gullible to realise. Like a princess, or even possibly a narcissistic little girl who wants everything to herself, I disregarded the stories told to me during my bedtimes. That 'Beauty and the Beast' was only a figment of one's imagination. That a palace was even a torture ground to those who have absolute control over it, all its inhabitants, and all that are affected by it. The potential bestowed future had been ruined by innocent decisions of my heart, unknown to the tragedy it would inevitably render. In the end, it was my husband, whose gaze I interpreted as one of affection, who was my one and only betrayer. *** | Top Ranks | [#05 in 'Resilience' - 18/04/2023] [#06 in 'Solution' - 28/08/2024] *** Important Note: Those who are easily triggered are advised not to continue with this book.
