His Curse , My Ruin
This is a story of light and darkness, sun and moon. They say true love never fades... but sometimes it is the person you love who fades away. Sometimes love endures, but at the cost of your life. Tales of true love do not always have happy endings. You will find stories steeped in trauma, sadness, and torture-all in the name of "true love." And after enduring all that pain, the heavens still could not bless it. They separated the lovers. Why such cruelty? Perhaps their love, purer than heaven itself, was something the gods could not bear. So, they killed the light. And without it, the darkness lost all purpose. In his despair, the darkness spread further than ever before. Enraged, he was ready to tear the sky apart, but his powers were sealed. So, he took his own life to join his light. This final act was a sin against the gods, leaving a terrible curse upon the world. This is where our tale begins. But what if fate offered another chance? What if the Gods themselves granted a new life? Born again in the same bodies, with the same names, but in another universe... He is still the darkness, the cursed child who inherited its power. She is still the beauty,a fragile, delicate angel who shines as the light, yet holds no power. Will history repeat itself? Or will their story be written differently this time? Welcome to His Curse, My Ruin, featuring Rosella Maren and Lucien Draeger. This is a complex fantasy woven with dark romance.
