The Devil’s Bride: Chains of the False Saint

When love arrives on the balcony, it feels like destiny - until it becomes a nightmare. Freya grows up cherished and sheltered, the pampered only daughter of a cultured family. But after a cascade of tragedies - her cousin's death, her father's paralysis, and her mother's desperate visits to a notorious "saint" named Abigail - she withdraws from the world, nursing her grief on a moonlit balcony. There she meets Michael, a handsome stranger who claims to be a childhood friend returned from abroad.
His tender words and secret meetings seem like the answer to her prayers. Against her parents' wishes she marries him, imagining a new life of romance and security. Instead, she is drawn into a dark labyrinth of deception and superstition. Michael's moods turn violent, her parents die in a mysterious fire, and the apartment across the street where he first appeared proves to be long abandoned. Unbeknownst to her, Michael is a man enslaved since childhood by Abigail - a false saint and sorceress whose schemes have ruined countless lives.
Now Abigail has marked Freya herself for a grisly ritual, convinced her blood can unlock a buried treasure. Torn between his love for Freya and the crimes he's been forced to commit, Michael risks everything to free them both. As police, priests and villagers converge on Abigail's underground lair, a deadly explosion tears open the truth. Out of the wreckage, Freya must decide whether to trust the man who saved her or flee the shadows forever.
