Lovers in Crime
"Lovers in Crime" follows the intertwined destinies of Blithe del Rosario, a celebrated fashion designer by day and a feared assassin, Lady Mystique, by night, and Chain Singh (Citrine Leohart-Curseal), a five-star general disillusioned by endless warfare. Timelime set in the aftermath of the Cataclysm—a catastrophic event that shattered the world of Gaea into new continents and led to the emergence of extraordinary beings known as Ascendants and grotesque Deteriorats—the story explores themes of love, bonds, family, justice, and moral complexity.
As Blithe seeks revenge for her parents' murder, her path converges with Citrine's quest for peace. Together, they navigate a world filled with power struggles and ethical dilemmas, developing a deep bond despite the chaos around them. Their relationship faces external pressures and misunderstandings, testing their trust and commitment.
Amidst their personal battles, Blithe and Citrine's love story blossoms, leading to the birth of six children who symbolize hope for a fractured world. The couple ultimately confronts their foes in a climactic showdown, overcoming challenges that solidify their partnership and pave the way for a promising future.
The narrative concludes by reflecting on the overarching themes of order versus freedom and the quest for redemption, leaving everyone with a sense of hope and the ongoing struggle for balance in a post-cataclysm world.
