Embraced by darkness

In his world the fire was no longer burning him, the blood was no longer crimson, the grass lost his green colour and the sun disappeared-In his world there was merely space, void and darkness.

A lot of wives, concubine and mistress-A lot of victories, wars, mud, dirt, murders, leverage, haul, yields, harvest, gold and power..yet there was nothing that brought him the real feeling of living.

What happened in his dark past kept haunting him in the battle yards, in his nightmares and in his nights of lust-his past was a curse with no escape from it except by death.

Until she came, a maid at first then a one of his concubines..she changed the rules of his life, his heart and his court.

One forbidden girl was able to be his redemption, to embrace him instead of his darkness.

While they live happily ever after? Or maybe the curse of his past will embrace them both with no escape
