"I am the Modern Day Psyche. I don't need a Cupid to save me."

[Under Major Major Major Revision]

. . . 

Beautiful, smart, and outgoing Zeirenne Lynn is a complete crackhead who laughs at the brink of death. On the other hand, Jin Yang is the typical cold-hearted, aloof genius who had to ‘change his vibe’ just to fit hers. 

From her bubbly personality, no one would have guessed her life's greatest aspiration—to live a dangerous life full of adventure and surprises. Gangsters, criminals, felons, she wants to befriend them all. 

And no one knows about his—to protect her for the rest of his life no matter the consequences. 

With their crazy aspirations and headstrong personalities, who will need to sacrifice what—between love and dreams?

“Love is all in the mind. If you’re smart enough, you’d never trick yourself into believing senseless romance.”

“We’ll see about that.”

Modern Day Psyche

Once upon a time, there was a princess so precious, her parents, the king and queen, couldn't bear to see her getting hurt. One night, the queen dreamed of something ominous; a curse with a prince in his white horse conquering her daughter's heart... everything started well until he left her devastated. When the queen awoke, she told the king about her dreams, and they called in all the powerful fairies to have the princess's heart sealed.

She'd never get her heart broken... because she'd never be capable of falling in love. They took the essence of love from her, but unbeknownst to them, it sat in the deepest crevices of her heart—waiting to be awakened.

"That's what I'd like to know too..." Zeirenne said, "Do I... like you?"

Jin found himself tongue-tied for a few seconds before he started conking his head like a dysfunctional machine. He faced Zeirenne, knowing full-well how her definition of 'like' differs from his.
