โAs the cloak of night shrouds the distance, deep in the heart of the forest, ten hooded figures stand around a blazing altar. Their lips quietly whisper the word of the Holy Raelzar, rising into the sky in the form of black smoke, carrying the vow to the Liberator.โ

Deep in the heart of Montanaโs wilderness, hidden from the outside world, lies the Vita Sanctis communityโa place of devotion, submission, and secrets buried beneath whispered prayers. The chosen of the Holy Raelzar bound to an endless cycle of sacrifice, lives by ten sacred dogmas.
Born and raised within these walls, Marigold has never known another life. Taught to obey, and never to stray from the path of the Liberator, she believes that only unwavering devotion can keep their people whole and together.
But the divine order begins to crumble when a wounded outsider is brought into their sanctuary.
Damian is not the lost soul he pretends to be. He is a shadow in the night, a blade against a throat, a single, perfect shot to end a sinnerโs lifeโa name feared even by the darkest corners of the underworld. He is cold, calculated, and a ruthless harbinger of reckoning, sent to dismantle Vita Sanctis from withinโuntil he is confronted with her.
She is so pure, that he aches to ruin her.
She is so devoted, that he must break her faith.
Marigoldโs innocence unsettles him and makes his lethal instincts falterโbut hesitation in Damianโs world is a death sentence.
The fragile line between obedience and betrayal, desire and submission, shatters the moment the community decides that Marigold must be sacrificed for the greater good. What was meant to be a precise execution turns into a twisted prayer for seeing one more day.
But in Vita Sanctis, faith is paid in bloodโand when the time comes, Damian will have to choose.
One assassin.
One devotee.
And a promise to burn the world.
But will the flames be enough to erase the ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐โthe one that declares devotion to twisted faith is the greatest blasphemy of all?

Hello reader!แฅซแญก
First of all, thanks for clicking on the story!
Now, this story is differentโitโs not your typical [dark] romance storyโthis one is filled with religion, brainwashing the society, and sinful sensations lingering in the dark ;)
This time, I invite you to step into a place forgotten by the worldโa closed-off, distrustful community known as Vita Sanctis, where minds are clouded, and faith is absolute. ;) We'll try to break free from the shackles of belief while being repulsed by blood rituals, and hiding the sinful thoughts that creep in at night.
HUGE TRIGGER WARNING: like all of my stories, this one is no exceptionโso please, I do urge you to read the TWS section carefully and be responsible, deciding if youโre ready, my lovelies. Moving on, we will witness not only cruelty, religious fanaticism, and the worship of things people are willing to die for, but also will seek to psychologically break the one the world has forgotten. ;)
The chapters will be told from both main charactersโ POVs, with each section clearly marked by whose perspective is leading the narrative.
Once again, I canโt escape my tendency to write about immoral and slightly unsettling themes, but heyโit seems like you enjoy it, and Iโm all for it. <3
The first chapter is coming soonโvery soon!
All Iโm asking is to give me some feedback - click a heart, write a comment, add this story to your reading list and be sure to review the story once youโre finished reading it!๐งธ.
Enjoy the story!
Kisses,
Melancholija (en. melancholia), but please, call me meliแฅซแญก
Donโt forget to click a heart, comment, and add this story to your reading list, sweeties!แฅซแญก
