The Golden Chain

Athanasia Gruwéigh, who graduate with the highest honor at the most prestigious university in Glovarno and was recognized as the best doctor against poison, decided to stay at her home, the golden forest and met a chained man in the middle of it. Athanasia’s interest in the man grew stronger as she slowly unfolds the mysteries around him.

 Marcus Parham, chained and captive inside the most poisonous forest is awaiting his death when a golden-haired woman fell into his cage. As his annoyance grew towards the woman another emotion is slowly surfacing inside him.

Both are in the forest, one is chained and one is free. As they try to unlock the chain that is bounding Marcus, a series of forbidden locks was also unlocked. Misfortunes surfaced and the cost of the key is a huge prize to pay.

(ON-HOLD)

She grinned happily as she looked at Marcus who was now staring blankly at her.

She felt strangely happy. Tingles erupted on her body as she looked at him. She felt excited, excited to give her gifts to him, and excited to see him up close.

It was a strange feeling. Maybe because she rarely see him and she was not used to being around him or she just kissed him taking care of someone trapped in the forest.

"Have you missed me?" She asked as she grins at him.

His expression didn't change as he looked at her blankly. Athanasia wasn't exactly surprised by the reaction so she just went near him cautiously.

She didn't forget to cast a protective spell around her as she walked toward him. She needs to be cautious because he's still a dark one, who hates her kind.

"Hawdy was outside again. You should take care of your fox more." She said as she slowly takes a step closer to him.

"You shouldn't treat him as your bodyguard." She continued, now she's close to where his chains will allow him.

Sound of chains getting dragged echoed. He stood up from his seat and he glared at her.

Suddenly, he was in front of her. He moved as fast as a wind that she didn't even notice it. They stood face to face with each other.

They were inches away from each other. She can clearly see the color of his obsidian eyes, his thick eyebrows, and his red lips.

She can almost hear his steady heartbeat.

Her heart went crazy. It pounded so fast and loud that she was afraid he can heat it.

"Gifts?" She cringed and raised the bag.
