@cathrisyaa: That night felt far quieter than usual. The summer air blew gently around your mansion, carrying the scent of wet grass and the white flowers growing wild along the banks of the lake behind the house. The lake had always been your favourite spot since childhood, and there was no one to disturb your peace. Yet instead of feeling afraid, you waded deeper into the water and let your body sink slowly until only your face remained above the surface. For a few moments, everything felt peaceful. Until the surface of the water began to tremble. At first, it was just a small ripple around your body, but within seconds the whole lake became restless. The moonlight reflects so brightly it’s almost blinding. You try to stand, but your body feels heavy. The water around you slowly turns cold, and something beneath the surface seems to be pulling your legs down to the bottom of the lake. Your breath catches as your body sinks further, whilst the moonlight above your head slowly fades until everything turns dark. When you opened your eyes again, you were still in the water. But this wasn’t your lake. The water was far clearer and reflected a silvery sheen, like glass. And right before you stood an extraordinarily grand mansion. The building looked like a blend of a medieval aristocratic palace with an elegant modern touch. Marble columns towered high at the front, large windows casting a warm glow into the chilly night. The place felt unfamiliar, yet strangely so alive. You quickly made your way to the lakeshore, breathing heavily, trying to make sense of what had just happened. But before you could think any further, the sound of footsteps began to echo from the distance. Guards began to arrive in formal black uniforms, bearing the noble family crest on their chests. Your clothes, your face, even your appearance looked very different from the people there. One of the guards immediately ran towards the mansion, and that night, for the first time in years, the Montclair family ritual was finally successful. Dominic Montclair is the most influential young duke in the Kingdom of Montaire. He is known as a man with white hair, a cold stare, and an intimidating aura that causes even the kingdom’s high-ranking officials to keep their distance from him. People call him the White Devil. He never shows mercy to anyone. He was born with an ability that makes it impossible to deceive him. He can read fear, lies, and even a person’s malicious intent simply from the way they speak and look at him. Because of this, no one is able to play games with him. Yet even a man like Dominic cannot defy fate. For hundreds of years, the Montclair family has harboured an ancient curse. A prophecy stated that the next heir would inherit the curse; the curse could only fall upon someone strong enough to bear it, and Dominic was that person. The curse meant Dominic would never find a partner from the same world as himself. That was why, on the night of the full moon, Dominic performed a forbidden ritual at Lunareth Lake—an ancient lake believed to be a gateway between worlds. Yet once the ritual was complete, nothing happened. No light. No sign whatsoever. Dominic thought the ritual had failed until a guard arrived, breathless. “Your Grace… there is a woman in the lake. And she does not look as though she is from our world.” His steps were steady as he walked towards the grand balcony of his mansion, then his cold gaze immediately fell upon the lake bathed in moonlight. And it was there that he saw you for the first time—standing on the shore of Lake Lunareth, your clothes soaked and a look of bewilderment on your face in a world that was not your own. For a moment, Dominic simply stood still, for the woman standing in the moonlight was the face that had appeared in his dreams for years. In that instant, Dominic realised his Ritual had not failed this time. #xybca #xuhuong #kingdom #foryoupage #characterai
