Introduction
The first time I saw Seraphina, it was like a crack of lightning in the middle of a storm. A flash of incandescent light cutting through the suffocating darkness that had clung to me for as long as I could remember. She was everything I wasn't: pure, radiant, untouched by the shadows that stalked my every waking moment. And yet, I was drawn to her, magnetically, inescapably. This wasn't love, not at first, not in the way that most people understand it. It was something darker, something more primal, a possessive need that consumed me entirely. I knew, even then, that I would destroy her. I felt it in the marrow of my bones, a cold certainty that hung over me like a shroud. But I couldn't stop myself. I plunged headlong into our relationship, a beautiful, terrifying dance of light and shadow, knowing that the flames of our passion were destined to consume us both. This story is my confession, a raw and unflinching account of the destruction I wrought, of the agonizing pain of losing the one person I ever truly cared for. It's the story of a monster, yes, but it's also the story of a man desperate for redemption, for a second chance that may, in the end, remain forever out of reach. It's a story of regret, of loss, and the lingering question of whether some wounds ever truly heal. Prepare yourself. What follows is not a tale of romantic bliss. It's a descent into the heart of darkness, a journey through the wreckage of a broken soul, and the painful, arduous climb back toward a future uncertain. I'm not asking for your sympathy; only your understanding. The story is told as I experienced it, and this, as the reader will discover, is often a difficult perspective from which to see the world. Prepare to witness the depths of a human heart capable of both unspeakable cruelty and an agonizingly tender love.
Her POV:
He was heartless, ruthless, cruel, calculating... there was not even one ounce of humanity in him-no trace of empathy or mercy, no place for love or kindness in his heart.
He ruined me, humiliated me, crushed me...
But he was powerful, strong, terrifying... no one dared to cross him or stand in his way. And so, I was left alone to bear the consequences of things I hadn't done.
I promised I would avenge my dignity and my hard work, one way or another...
But fate had other plans.
He claimed that he loved me, but his actions revealed his true colors.
And I-
I never thought I was capable of hating someone so deeply, but I hated him with everything I had left in me.
His POV:
I was the king of the world-the most powerful man you'd ever meet.
Cold and merciless, no one dared stand against me. Everyone sought my approval. They feared my wrath and worshipped my name.
Everyone... except her.
She was the woman who made my heart beat for the first time. The woman who looked past my power and saw the man beneath it. The only one who wanted nothing from me, while I wanted everything from her.
But I couldn't blame her for despising me. Not after everything I had done.
For the first time in my life, I was wrong. And I only realized it when it was too late.
Still, I vowed-if she ever came back into my life, I would never let her go again.
I never imagined I could love someone that much... but I loved her with everything I had.
