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

A silence so shocking yet so awkward permeated the afternoon air as Laleen stared dumbly at Shane.

Huh? Did he just say he won't be seeing her parents? What was she supposed to do?

Remembering her auntie's words, her eyebrows dipped towards a tight knot and she sat up from the couch she had been sitting on.

"Why won't you?" The wind carried her voice softly to Shane's ears in question.

Taking a deep breath, Shane pondered for a second on the right words to use.

"It's inconvenient" he dully replied.

His face was blank and unruffled as he stared at the confused girl in front of him.

Truly for Shane, it was inconvenient. But even more so is the fact that it wasn't safe.

He'd rather not interact with her family if he could help it. Their coming from a line of witches made everything worse.
