Love can heal.
Love can destroy.
And sometimes... it can trap you in a living nightmare.
Jeon So-yi's marriage was supposed to be her dream. Instead, it became a silent war--where every touch burns, every moment suffocates, and the man she loves becomes the one she fears the most.
Beyond the walls of her prison, a different kind of terror unfolds.
The city is drowning in blood.
A mysterious killer is hunting down criminals---leaving behind a chilling signature: "XO."
To stop the chaos, the case is assigned to the most genius mind of all--Detective Jeon Elvis.
A man who sees what others miss.
A man who hides more than he reveals.
But as secrets begin to unravel, one truth threatens to destroy everything---
In a world where love feels like a curse...
and justice wears the face of a monster...
Who is really the hunter... and who is the prey?

Untangled
I slammed the table loudly and groaned out of pain. Not only the pain from the headache I was having right now. But also from the memories flooding my mind as well. I was slowly remembering everything. "I hate you!"I shouted seething from anger as I gritted my teeth to stop myself from attacking him. He was really tempting me and I knew it wouldn't be long before I would attempt to pull his face apart and rip out his throat. "Not more than I hate you Alexander Norman. Trust me." He said emphasising on the name that seemed so foreign to me yet that was my real name. He had a mischievous glint in his eyes as he seemed to enjoy the internal battle I was having in my head. " So back to my story-" He drawled in an attempt to irritate me before he continued. " Your mother married me because I had her secret and I threatened to ruin her with it if she did not give in to my wishes." "And what exactly was her secret?" I asked. "She killed your father." He responded and glanced at me probably waiting for my reaction at what he just said. ●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●● Scandals brew in the air once more.

Connecting Dots
'The ferocity of love isn't experienced unless you feel it.' Life is a connection of everybody around us, just like how a ball is stuck in a loop of circle. Either we accept it or not, but that is what happens when Dr Sejal, an exceptionally talented doctor meets Aryan Shetty - who himself is a surgeon and the CEO of Research Centre of Science and Medicine (RCSM). The glories of past, subsided in unknown testimonies of present turns an unrequited threat to their future when they try learning to live life and understand it from different perspectives. The main objective of Dr Sejal is to prove her father of how much successful she could become - she had a simple plan to do it, until somehow she finds herself stuck in the middle of falling in love with chauvinist Aryan, and experiencing the beauty of true friends. This makes her life a secluded mess of relationships. For Sejal there doesn't exist a word termed as hate, because hate is also love if you think deeply about it. We hate somebody not because we want to end their life, we do it because our love for somebody else is more stronger compared to the other. Hate in simple terms is nothing but comparisons of love. With love in the air, marriage on the list, friendship goals shipping their own ways and lots of never ending expectations of drama, both Sejal and Aryan learn to cope with life. Hoping to understand how to enjoy it instead of being sullen or depressed about it. Can someone love the same person and even hate them? Sejal was successful in finding its answer, although Aryan is a considerate genius but his EQ level couldn't make him a better lover. Will his love for someone else from his past destroy his relationship dynamics with everyone who love him now? Cover credit - @Dudess-FaithComplete
