Heartbeats of Love Chapter 10 The End of the Oath
Over the course of five years, humans and zombies truly achieved harmony. Humanity began rebuilding the world step by step. Often, when people couldn't lift something heavy, zombies would step in to help.On the day the five-year pact expired, Magnus held me in his arms and took me outside. His towering frame wrapped around me, his presence radiating an overwhelming sense of security. "Today is the anniversary of our marriage. The five years are up. Whatever you want to do now, I won't stop you."Watching society come back to life, slowly piecing itself together again, my eyes grew wet. But this had always been the agreement between Magnus and me. Granting humans five years of peace was already his way of honoring me.Magnus tilted my face toward him and pressed a kiss against my cheek. "I think things are just fine the way they are."I stared at him in shock. "What do you mean?""I've realized you were right. Conquest isn't the only path to satisfaction. As long as my Queen stays

Victor reached for me again. "Come with me, Zoe. Believe in me. As long as I'm alive, I'll protect you—all of you."It was as if I had touched a deadly virus. My ability lashed out at him. Victor's eyes widened in shock, and he instinctively released my wrist. I took the chance to step back two paces."Zoe, have you completely lost your mind? He's a zombie. Do you really expect a zombie to love you for real?""Believe it or not, he treats me well. What happened last time was just because he felt insecure. It won't happen again. As long as I'm here, he won't invade the camp." The moment Victor slandered Magnus, I found myself speaking up in his defense without even thinking.Victor let out a harsh laugh. "I don't know what spell he cast on you to make you trust him this much. As a leader, you're pinning all your hopes on the zombie king? Zoe, you're far too naive."It was precisely because I had once been a leader that I couldn't leave with him. I still carried the responsibility o

It was then I realized he wasn't cold by nature at all—he simply hadn't known how to speak much human language, so silence was all he had.Day by day, time slipped away, and before I knew it, three months had passed.That day, Magnus came to me with a dark expression. "Victor Lorant is here. He's outside. Do you want to see him?"I never imagined Victor would dare to come all the way into the zombies' territory. I opened my mouth to answer, but Magnus' dangerous gaze made my heart skip. Quickly, I said, "I am already your queen. Everything from before should be left behind. You should have had him driven away."I clenched my fists, forcing myself not to reveal a shred of concern. Magnus was testing me. If I chose to meet Victor, Magnus might not be able to hurt me, but Victor would surely meet a tragic end.Hearing my reply, Magnus looked pleased. He leaned down and kissed my forehead. "It seems my Queen has truly fallen for me. You once spoke of your family, and I suppose that ma
Heartbeats of Love Chapter 7 Uneasy Peace
"Since you won't play nice, I won't either."Enraged, Magnus rose to his feet and tried to strangle me. But the drug sensed his malice and immediately flared to life. He writhed on the floor in agony, powerless to touch me.My voice was quiet. "Your Majesty, rest assured, I'm not like you. I keep my promises. As long as you coexist with humans for five years, I'll give you the antidote."Humans might have been small and fragile, but they carried iron wills. I believed that given enough time, they would raise someone capable of standing against Magnus.Magnus said nothing and walked out of the room. I let out a long breath and downed three gulps of water just to steady my pounding heart.To my surprise, he returned that very night. Zombies didn't need to sleep. He simply sat in a chair, those ashen gray eyes locked on me without blinking. I pressed my lips together. "Your Majesty, you don't need sleep, but I do. Staring at me like that makes me nervous."If Magnus wanted to live,
Heartbeats of Love Chapter 6 The Countermove
Victor wasn't a fool. He knew immediately Anya was lying, seeing her behavior. He seized her wrist in a painful grip. "I'll ask you one more time. Where is Zoe?"Anya winced, then pulled a letter from her pocket. "She said she's marrying the zombie king to spy for us. The letter says he'll attack the camp in three days."Victor's eyes turned red, his face draining of color. He staggered, bracing himself against the wall to keep from collapsing.I had locked myself in my room, racking my brain over how to stop Magnus. If he really marched his troops, the camp would be wiped off the map. I had once been a leader. Even if I was now married to Magnus, I was still human. And as a human, I had to think of my people.After going around in circles, I finally came up with a workable plan. I sent a message to Victor, telling him he had to carry it out exactly as I said. Victor never replied. I tossed and turned the entire night, unable to sleep. If he mishandled things, I couldn't imagine
Heartbeats of Love Chapter 5 Betrayal and War Drums
Magnus didn't respond. He didn't even spare me another glance. He simply hefted me onto his shoulder as if I were nothing more than an object.The sight of the camp blurred and rushed past as he carried me away. My strength gave out, darkness closed in, and I fainted.…When I opened my eyes again, I had been tossed carelessly onto the floor. Magnus sat in a chair nearby, his entire being radiating an aura that warned others to stay away.He had saved me. I pressed my lips together and pushed myself up, edging closer. "Thank you for earlier."Magnus lifted his head, his voice colder than ice. "You're mistaken. Since you already agreed to marry me, you're mine. I never allow anyone to lay hands on what's mine."I said nothing. He stood, already moving for the door. I quickly grabbed his sleeve. "Where are you going?"His ashen eyes fell on me. "Chief Quinn, did you think that marrying me gives you the right to control me? Don't forget—zombies and humans are enemies. Marrying yo
