Prologue

#$#$%$%^$%^$%^$%^

Mothers tell of tales where the a brave hero saves the beauty he desires from the monster trying to take her away from him. They tell of true love's kiss, and how it can cure any curse put upon someone. They tell about how good always conquers evil, and how the good guy will always get the girl in the end. In Fairy tales, this was always true, as it had been proven to be so many times in children stories.

But this love was no fairy tale.

This kind of love was cruel and meant for doom from before it even began. This kind of love was meant to hurt, not only the two cursed to have it, but to hurt the people around them as they let it consume them. This love not about sweet kisses and confessions of true love. It wasn't about happiness and smiles either. No, this love only stood for their pain and their loneliness. This love they had stood for hate and it stood for sadness.

Their love was what killed her.

There was no man to save her, though she did have one who loved her very much, but his love would be what ruined her. He seeked redemption, though he would never admit to wanting it. He wanted a companion who would fall for him and be his love forever, again, another thing he would not admit to wanting. He only got what one of the things he was looking for, and it wasn't the one someone would like to think it was. What was the cost for his love to be returned to him ? Her light, her beauty, her strength. Her life.

She was only human, and like most humans he had encountered, she could break so easily because of what he was. The two were doomed the moment they had first laid eyes on her. She was an angel, an angel he wasn't suppose to touch, but he had been a wicked little boy when they were human. He loved having what he was forbidden to have. His mother had warned him once that eating from the forbidden fruit would have been his death, and it had been, for his heart and for his soul.
