Episode 5: "The Night the Darkness Touched Her Heart"
Narrator:
The curse is growing.
Fear is rising.
And love…
love is becoming dangerous.
🌑 Scene 1: Ayla's Room – Midnight
A storm growls outside.
Ayla lies on her bed, shivering uncontrollably.
The dark mark on her arm has crawled up to her shoulder.
She whispers to herself:
Ayla:
"Don't listen… don't listen… don't—"
A cold hand touches her neck.
She gasps—
but no one is there.
Then a voice, right beside her ear:
Shadow Queen:
"You're mine tonight."
Ayla's heartbeat races.
Her room slowly twists into darkness—
walls melting, floor disappearing—
a nightmare she cannot escape.
👁️ Scene 2: The Shadow Appears
A pitch-black figure forms in the corner of the room.
Tall. Thin. Watching.
It whispers Ayla's name—
over and over—
like a chant:
Ayla… Ayla… Ayla…
Ayla tries to scream,
but her voice is locked inside her chest.
The shadow moves closer.
Its fingers reach out—
just inches from her face—
Ayla (terrified, cracking):
"Stop… please… stop…"
The shadow bends down and whispers:
Shadow Queen:
"He won't save you tonight…"
❤️ Scene 3: Prince Rayen's Entrance – The Romantic Fear
Suddenly—
the room bursts with warm golden light.
Prince Rayen appears, panting, sword glowing.
Rayen:
"Ayla! Look at me—only me!"
He pulls her into his arms.
Ayla collapses against his chest, shaking violently.
Ayla (whispering into him):
"I'm scared… I'm so scared…
I can't fight her anymore…"
Rayen lifts her chin gently.
His eyes shine with fear—
but also fierce love.
Rayen:
"Then let me fight with you."
Ayla's breath catches—
she didn't expect those words.
Rayen touches her cheek, soft as moonlight.
Rayen:
"You are not a curse.
You are my heart."
Ayla's tears fall freely.
For a moment…
the curse weakens.
🔥 Scene 4: The Horror Returns
The room suddenly chills.
Rayen pulls Ayla behind him.
A black hand crawls out of the floor.
Another…
Another…
Shadows rise like living nightmares.
One shadow whispers in Rayen's voice:
"Ayla… choose me…"
Another whispers in Meera's voice:
"Come with us…"
Another in Zara's:
"You don't belong here…"
Ayla screams:
Ayla:
"STOP IT!"
The shadows burst into black dust.
Ayla's body glows—
but the glow twists into dark lightning.
The mark climbs to her neck.
Rayen looks horrified.
Rayen:
"Ayla… your eyes…"
They are turning black.
🌧️ Scene 5: Fear + Romance Collide
Ayla falls into Rayen's arms.
Ayla:
"If I lose myself…
don't let me hurt anyone."
Rayen holds her tighter.
Rayen:
"I won't let the darkness take you.
Even if I have to lose myself first."
Ayla looks into his eyes—
fear + love mixing like fire and water.
She touches his jaw softly.
Ayla:
"If I become a monster…
will you still love me?"
Rayen's voice breaks:
Rayen:
"I already love you.
And monsters don't scare me."
Ayla kisses him—
a desperate, trembling kiss—
as if she's afraid it might be her last.
Darkness swirls around them.
Their hearts beat louder than the storm.
Ending Twist (Horror + Romance)
Ayla suddenly coughs—
black smoke escapes her lips.
Rayen steps back in shock.
Ayla's voice changes—
a mixture of her own and the Queen's:
Ayla/Shadow Queen:
"Seven nights…
are too long.
She will belong to me…
tonight."
Ayla collapses.
Rayen catches her.
Her last whisper is not hers:
Ayla (possessed whisper):
"Save me…
before I disappear."
Darkness consumes the screen.
