There's always a price for defying destiny. 
Born with a power to make men irresistibly in love with her, Laleen dreams of experiencing a love unbound by her powers. But a man like that could never exist in her life due to the curse placed on her when she was just a baby.
When her soul is exchanged with another's after an encounter with the witch who cursed her as a baby, Laleen is giving an opportunity to start her life anew and maybe, get the love story she has always wanted. Except... how is her curse still with her despite now becoming another person in another world? 
As Stephanie, Laleen meets Shane, a mysterious man who for some reason isn't affected by her powers. Not thinking that a man such as himself could exist in this world, Laleen is deeply drawn to him.
Due to unforseen circumstances, they end up together as husband and wife. 
But Shane isn't just a mysterious man who refuses to love her. He bears his own secrets and a great trauma that Laleen is yet to uncover and may be the key to unlocking his unyielding heart.
As Laleen's quest for love is greatly challenged by a witch's thirst for revenge, secrets are unveiled and stories of the past are brought to question. 
Can Laleen find the true love she so seeks? Will Shane's heart ever be opened to her? Can a love thriving without destiny's divine permission ever see the light?
Or will it be burnt to ashes, buried in the cold dark hands of fate's cruelty.

In-between Our Destinies

With her hand pointing towards the sky, Laleen said with a bright smile, "Look, Shane. The bright and lonely star is you"

Shane who had shut his eyes to listen to the quietness of the night opened them abruptly and his head snapped in her direction.

"Do you see it? It's just like you. So bright yet so alone"

Laleen was looking intently at the star with fascination yet Shane was only looking at her.

Not hearing him speak, she turned to him with a frown but was immediately startled by the intensity of his gaze.

Squinting her eyes, she continued, "You don't like my analogy, is that it?"

Not getting any response where he continued to stare at her with a gaze she couldn't comprehend, she pursed her lips. With a shrug, she mumbled, "I'm not wrong"

Looking back at the sky, she continued, "The poor star shines brighter than the rest but look at it sadly on its own."

Looking back at him, she beamed, "See?"
