Every year, the village had to choose a girl of age to become the Blossom Bride. The girl who was chosen would be sent into the cave as the village god’s wife. She would spend the entire night with him. If she came out alive, she would be honored for the rest of her life as a village elder. Any child she bore was said to be blessed, destined for a life of effortless fortune. If she died, the village would simply wait for the next year, when another Blossom Bride would be chosen. The blessing of the Blossom Bride was believed to pass on to her parents and elders as well. However, no one wanted to be chosen. To escape the ritual, families quietly left the village, one after another. I was the only one who volunteered. I had a lust problem, and I had always wondered what it would feel like to be with a god.

EZREN: Kiss or kill. Those were always the two options left.. until the past walks back into my life in the form of blue eyes, ginger curls, and a tattoo he swears I should remember. Knox Graye. A diagnosed psychopath. Says he was my brother’s boyfriend. That I left him to die and that I hold the only truth to his death. He is everywhere. Digging up my lies. Ruining what’s left of my life. Call me ‘Cherry’ like it means something. I swear I hate it. I hate him. I don’t know if he wants closure, revenge, or just someone to break. Either way, I’m his target and his third option. KNOX: Everyone thinks I’ve got a loose screw in the head but they're wrong. I lost the whole damn toolbox, buried six feet under with the only person I ever loved. I've spent six years grieving. Dying in pieces while he rots away in a grave but now? Now someone else walk around in his bones, smiling with his lips like he fuckin’ owns it. Like I wouldn’t recognize my own goddamn Cherry. Except now he calls himself Ezren. Cute. He thinks he has been hiding behind top grades and golden-boy charm, but I built his whole damn maze. And now that he's close? I’m done with subtlety. I want chaos in his veins, his secrets peeled off like skin. I want to crawl into the part of his head where he still hears his brother’s laugh and whisper: “You were always mine." He doesn’t know it yet, but I’m going to dismantle him. Brick by fucking brick. And when he finally breaks, I’ll be there to offer him a choice. “Kiss or kill, Cherry?”

เพราะว่ารัก.....ก็เลยยอมให้เขาทำร้าย ดันเห็นกงจักรกลายเป็นดอกไม้ ยิ่งห้ามยิ่งเตือนหัวใจตัวเองเท่าไหร่ก็ไม่ฟัง จะเป็นยังไง ถ้าวันหนึ่งเราได้รู้ว่าคนที่แอบชอบมาตั้งหลายปี เขาไม่ได้เป็นแบบที่เราคิด เขาไม่ได้ใสซื่อเหมือนที่แสดง เขามีอีกด้านที่เราไม่เคยรู้จักมาก่อน ทุกสิ่งที่เคยคิดว่าเขาเป็น และมันทำให้เราหลงใหลในตัวเขา มันไม่มีอะไรจริงเลยสักอย่าง เราจะทำอย่างไร จะเดินหน้าต่อไป หรือจะถอยหลังกลับ ความสัมพันธ์บางอย่างก็เหมือนกับการที่เราหยิบงูขึ้นมาอุ้มไว้ในอ้อมแขน ปล่อยให้มันรัด ให้มันพันรอบตัวโดยที่ไม่ทันสังเกต ไม่ได้เฉลียวใจ เพราะคิดว่ามันไม่มีพิษภัย แต่ลืมไปว่ามันก็สามารถกินเราได้เช่นกัน เช่นเดียวกับการที่เราเอาตัวเข้าไปในชีวิตของใครคนหนึ่ง ได้ทำความรู้จักแล้ว เอาตัวเข้าไปข้องเกี่ยวไปผูกพันแล้ว ก็ไม่อาจสลัดทิ้งได้โดยง่าย ถึงแม้เราจะพยายามที่จะทอดถอนตัวออกมาแค่ไหน ก็ไม่อาจหลีกหนีได้พ้น
