Long ago, a princess was praised for her divine beauty, and thus she invoked the wrath of Aphrodite. She demanded her son, the god of desire, Aamin, to bring a horrific fate down upon the princess by making her fall for a monster. But with a single look, he fell deeply in love with the princess, and took her as his bride. He refuses to reveal his identity to her and keeps her locked away in his palace to keep her safe from his mother.

He had been away for weeks on a hunt, alas returning home.
