CHAPTER 60
AMAIRA: His Poisoned Rose
#3 of RUINED HEARTS SERIES “Would you miss me if I left?” “I’d miss you the way wounds miss pain – painfully, endlessly.” _____________________________ She’s a Tangled Princess – hidden away from the world in a lonely tower where no one even knows her name. Soft, scared, and untouched by the world’s cruelty, she dreams in colors no one has ever seen. She believes in beauty, in kindness, in the quiet promise of fairytales. She doesn’t know what love feels like, or what care truly means. All her life, she’s endured pain so silently that she mistook it for peace – believing that’s how life was meant to be. And then, there’s him – the Beast. A man carved from shadows and solitude. He lives alone, far from tenderness, wrapped in walls of ice and silence. He hates softness, fears innocence, and trusts nothing pure. He’s seen the world for what it truly is – cruel, hollow, and painted with false smiles. So he stopped believing in warmth long ago. But fate – cruel, beautiful fate – had other plans. Because this isn’t the tale where the Tangled Princess finds her Flynn. Nor the one where the Beast is tamed by his Beauty. No… this is something else entirely. What happens when a soul that’s never been touched by the world meets one that’s been burned by it? When light steps into the arms of darkness – not to change it, but to understand it? When two broken pieces of different fairytales find home in each other’s scars? This is not the story you know. It’s raw. It’s haunting. It’s where a Beast meets a Tangled – And love becomes something dangerously, beautifully real. ____________________________ TROPES ✦ Grumpy × Soft ✦ Beast × Tangled (Rapunzel) dynamic ✦ Hidden-away heroine ✦ Emotionally scarred hero ✦ Light meets darkness ✦ Healing love ✦ Slow burn ✦ Broken souls finding home ✦ Fairytale retelling with a twist ✦ Fated connection ✦ Mentally fragile heroine (trauma-induced instability)
