Title: The Marionette's Kiss By Rin ih
Description:
Lucian was never a man to beg, never a man to break. Until Ophelia.
She was his fire, his ruin, the only thing that ever made him feel alive-and the one who made him bleed. When fate ripped her away, Lucian's world turned to ash. He burned cities for her, drowned in his own obsession, and carved his name into history with blood and vengeance.
But just when he thought the story had ended, she returned.
Or did she?
A shadow of the past now lingers before him, whispering his name, challenging everything he thought he knew. Love, hatred, and madness intertwine as Lucian is forced to face the darkest truth:
Some loves don't die. Some haunt. Some destroy.
A tale of obsession, revenge, and an all-consuming love that defies even death-where marionette strings tighten, and no one knows who's pulling them.
For readers who crave a dangerously intimate, soul-burning dark romance with mystery, tragedy, and a love that refuses to let go.

What should've been just one night of surrendering to my desires turned into an endless stream of obsession. A deadly obsession. A sickening, mind-numbing obsession. She coursed through my veins, spreading rapidly like venom. She was my very own poison. She was my savior and my downfall. She was everything that I've ever dreamed of, everything I've ever wanted.
