Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Moonstruck • Prologue

And SHE was just like the MOON,

So so full of imperfections.

But SHE was just like the moon,

SHE shined bright in times of Darkness.

~Prologue~

His slightly messy silver hair cascaded over his pretty temples, overshadowing his excessively beautiful sea-blue eyes, which glowed a sheen of bright sapphire in the dark. His aura was regal, and his demeanour was that of an oppressive kind.

He stared at her with those shining blue eyes dripping in possessive lust and mad covetousness.

"Run away? You think you can afford to? Try if you are feeling so brave." He looked like a ravenous predator simply toying with his meal before savouring it whole into his belly.

The petite little blonde glared back at the towering figure of the gorgeous man, looking more like a wild milk kitten rather than a fierce tigress. Her eyes, a lustre of pale luminous pink.

To the man who was overpowering her, pressing her against the wall in an ambiguous posture, her death glare felt more like a caress to his heart, tickling his core and making him more and more obsessed with her.

"Just because you are a high noble and I'm a common baron's daughter, do not, for a moment think that you can do whatever your heart so desires." She growled in a fiery temper, further arousing the man's obsessive temperament.

"My little milk kitten!" The man chuckled, "You think I don't dare to? Are you certain you want to try me?" The man, Archduke Leon Alastair Dietrich, pinned Keona Isabella Amilda, the youngest illegitimate daughter of a humble baron, against the walls of the royal castle of Ishtavelle, hidden from plain sight.

The two potential lovebirds were unaware of a third pair of eyes which were ogling at them with gusto while taking advantage of the dark moonless night, hidden in a dingy corner of the otherwise well-lit castle.

These pair of eyes belonged to our supposed protagonist, Lady Beotis Odilia Lagraine, a Marquess's daughter and the Female lead, Keona Isabella Amilda's distant cousin.

However at the moment, her current monologue went like this, 'Does this woman Keona, knows what her face looks like right now? If I didn't know better, I'd say, she is literally begging the male lead to tease and bully her. And the male lead? God! I don't understand what the hell is wrong with him... or better yet, what the hell is wrong with this entire novel!!! The female lead is a masochistic Mary Sue while all the male leads are psychos!!! I understand that readers really dig obsessive yandere rich male leads, and all that hot and heavy push and pull, love-hate aghast drama. I don't personally hate such stuff either. BUT this author, (*Grinds teeth*) didn't she think that she went a little too overboard with all the main characters' twisted settings!? But what is the worst of it all is that, why did I have to transmigrate into Beotis Lagraine's body! Why!!! (*Cries Cries*)'

Lady Beotis Odilia Lagraine, or simply put, Beo Lagraine, was what you would call a transmigrated little villainess whose existence didn't even make a dent in the overall story of the novel. She existed only to make the Female lead more of an overpowered being and to trigger more steamy scenes between the heroine and her male leads. Also, she was dead before the first chapter of the novel 'GIVE ME YOUR FLOWER' was even done.

But for the moment, she... well, she seems quite busy relishing in the flowery spring show of the male and the female lead underneath the fragrant wisterias.

So let us leave her to her enjoyment, shall we?
