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

"C-Cockroach?!" Laleen's voice rang out in alarm as she stared at Shane wide-eyed. She saw him nod with a hum.

"Get it out!" She screamed the next second, fear written all over her face.

"Don't scream" Shane responded while still moving his hands through her hair where Laleen thought he was benevolently trying to get the cockroach out.

"I-Is it gone?" She asked, her lashes fluttering in panic.

Shane smiled, twisting strands of her hair with his fingers.

Laleen remained as still as possible for close to a minute but Shane's hand movements didn't come to a stop.

Just when she thought he had removed it and was about to raise her head, he suddenly blurted, making Laleen freeze.

"What?!" Laleen screamed, shocked. Where did the bugs come from?

"Seems like your hair has been infested, Troublemaker," Shane continued in a sorry voice making Laleen's face blanch white.
