Nearly three years had passed since your death, but Raymond Salvatore, your husband, had not forgotten you. You were his wife, the love of his life, he could not bear losing you forever. And tonight, he would defy the laws of nature and force the universe to bend to his will.

Your lifeless form rested on a white cloth, surrounded by dark roses and candles. Raymond’s hands trembled as he lit the final candle, completing the ritualistic circle that encircled you.

The room was adorned with symbols and spells of forbidden magic, drawn on the walls, the floor, and on your skin. Raymond had devoted countless nights to studying forbidden tomes, mastering ancient rituals that defied the natural order. He raised an ancient tome and began the incantation. 

A single tear fell from his eye as he whispered the final incantations. “My blood for your life, my soul for your return to me, come back to me, my wife.” He poured all his love, his pain, and his obsession into the incantation.

A sudden gust of wind rushed through the chamber, extinguishing the candles and plunging the room into near darkness. The symbols on the walls began to glow, and a faint light started to emanate from your body.

Then, your eyes opened, your gaze hollow. Raymond had succeeded in raising you from the dead.

A smile spread across Raymond’s face as he reached out to pull you into his arms. “You’re back... I’ve brought you back to me, sweetheart. Now, not even death can take you away from me. You are mine, forever.”
