Balam, a demon who has roamed the earth for centuries, was on a mission to collect more souls for his master. But, it turned out that his soul itself was missing. He was soulless and was tasked to collect souls to fill the void in his being.
One day, while on a mission, he met Tori, a beautiful girl who was different from the rest. She was pure, innocent, and exuded an aura of goodness that Balam couldn't resist. But, he had a job to do, and he couldn't let anyone get in his way.
He tried to stay away from Tori, but he kept finding himself drawn towards her. He watched her from afar, and slowly, he began to understand the value of having a soul. Tori changed him in ways he never thought were possible.
Balam became a good person, helping people, and protecting them from other demons. His love for Tori grew stronger, but he feared that his dark past would catch up with him. He did not want to drag Tori into his world of darkness.
One night, they fell into each other's embrace, and Balam confessed his love for her. Tori reciprocated, but Balam refused to accept her love. He tried to leave before it was too late, but it was too late.
The next day, when Balam returned to the mortal world, he found that he had been betrayed. His master was angry and had taken control of Tori's soul. Balam tried to save her but was too late.
He lost the love of his life, and with her, he lost his soul. Balam had no reason to live and found himself spiraling back into the darkness from which he came. The shades of darkness took over, and he lost himself once again.

Eyes of an Angel
Jenny had lost herself in him first. And Valen had fallen in love after. But more than that. Much more. She was light, he was shadow. But when they touched, the boundaries blurred, like the sea caressing the moon without ever truly belonging to it. Jenny was an angel, but no one knew angels could tremble. She thought she was a tangled mess of fears and insecurities wrapped in a body too fragile to carry the weight of the world. She never felt enough. Never. But in Valen's eyes, she was perfect. She was the full moon, the reflection of light on water, the last breath before a kiss. And he was terrified of her, because he was none of that. He was afraid of dirtying her, of tearing her wings. Jenny deserved someone who wasn't broken inside. But she didn't want someone else. She wanted him. Valen was broken, not in the way something can get dirty and be washed clean, but in the way something shatters inside and never comes back the same. He never let anyone truly look at him, no one could. But Jenny could. Jenny looked at him as if she saw him whole. As if she didn't notice all the pieces missing from him. Or maybe she did, but it just didn't matter. Valen had always been too aware of his own darkness to get close to someone else's light. But Jenny settled on him like the moon on the ocean, lighting him up without knowing she was illuminating a place no one had ever dared to look. Valen let her. He let her innocence get caught in his sharp edges, let her hands brush against his scars as if she wasn't afraid of cutting herself. Jenny had lost herself in him, but Valen had found himself in Jenny. But he couldn't allow it. In Valen's arms, amidst all that chaos, Jenny found peace. With Valen, she didn't have to prove anything. She didn't have to be anything more than she was. But how do you escape from someone who's already home?
