Without thinking, Aria dropped her weapon and threw herself over the mother and her child. It was a reckless move, but it felt right. Her body trembled, a strange déjà vu washing over her—like she had done this before. The last thing on her mind before the flames reached them was one word: Corinna.

The mother and child screamed in fear, and Aria clung to them, trying to shield them with her own body—hoping, somehow, to protect them all.

But then, something unexpected happened.

The fire didn’t hit.

Aria looked up and turned around.

It was Ares.

He had stepped in just in time, holding out his shield to block the flames. “Get inside! Now!” he shouted.

Wasting no time, Aria grabbed the mother and her child and hurried behind the shield. She quickly got her weapon ready, eyes scanning the area—knowing they couldn’t stay hidden for long.

Ares stood firm, using all his strength to move the shield wherever the fire spread. But the heat was intense, and it was already burning his forearm.

  • The Wolf King's Vow   Chapter 35: Desire Delayed

    These weren’t just any werewolves, they were from the Azar clan, the largest and most feared of them all. Their former king, Khaos, had been ruthless beyond measure. Now, his eldest son Marcus had taken the throne… and was currently locked in a cell.That kind of move wouldn’t go unanswered. Capturing the king of such a powerful clan wouldn’t be seen as justice, it would be seen as weakness. As an insult.Ares had wanted to see Marcus for himself, to know if he was anything like his father. The first thing that hit him was the resemblance, same presence, same cold eyes. Maybe that was just something all werewolves shared. But beyond that, Marcus had been... strange. Hard to read. His behavior didn’t fully match the monster everyone warned about.Ares turned back to the ruined village. Homes burned down. Families scattered. Many had packed what little they had left and gone off in search of safety, somewhere far from all this chaos.He remembered how Aria’s father had first pulled him

  • The Wolf King's Vow   Chapter 34: Tethered Rage

    “Give me a reason Marcus, because I am not one of your subjects who follow your orders blindly.”He just glared at her trying to contain his anger but God help him…“Oh right. Because I am whore. I shouldn’t do it for breeding right? It makes sense.” She nodded. “Well, I never wanted children anyway so I think we agree on that. I guess I will just enjoy myself. I never thought it could be such a pleasurable experience to be with a man. It makes me tingle in a strange way.”He stiffened, feeling the rest of the air leave his lungs at the thought of another man bringing her pleasure and not just touching her.She blushed a little. “It was just a kiss but…” she shrugged, bringing her fingers to her lips as if recalling it. “If I can feel like that just from a kiss, imagine…?”A kiss?He yanked at the chains again, now almost causing his wrists to break. She shook her head.“The chains were made to hold five werewolves in their beast form so don’t waste your energy.”Ignoring her he conti

    “I’m sorry. Was I too harsh?” she asked, tilting her head slightly. “I’m actually being a lot kinder than you were. If I were like you, I would’ve made you watch them die first… and then mocked how they died.”Her words hit him like a slap. But before he could even tell himself it was too much, he remembered the truth. That’s exactly what he had done to her. That day—when she stayed quiet and calm, and he kept pushing, being cruel for no reason.“You know, I should feel bad. Normally I do—when someone loses people. I understand grief more than I’d like to. But with you, Marcus… I can’t feel sorry for you,” she said, voice steady. “Because when I think of all the lives lost, the homes you destroyed, the children you left behind with no parents… how can I feel sorry for you? Does that make sense?”“Don’t assume it was my brothers,” Marcus said quickly.She nodded, still calm. “I thought about that. It could’ve been someone else from your clan. My guess? They didn’t follow your orders.”

  • The Wolf King's Vow   Chapter 32: Fate Has Terrible Taste

    She did. Ares had given her comfort, real comfort. But now, after everything, she felt colder than before. Something kept nagging at the back of her mind. He had left her more confused, more restless. More aware.Aria realized something painful—she needed warmth more than she ever admitted. But she also knew that allowing herself to feel, to open up, meant risking her heart again. And with someone like Ares, who clearly had a mission and secrets of his own, that was dangerous.She couldn’t go through another loss. Not again.But then, what was she supposed to do? She was marrying him. She wouldn’t be able to run from the comfort he gave or the closeness that would grow between them. And that scared her.She was ready to give him everything else—her partnership, her body, even children one day. But not her heart.That had to remain hers alone.Brushing off whatever little comfort she found, she went to look for professor Ward’s notes.As much as she didn’t want to see the prisoner righ

  • The Wolf King's Vow    Chapter 31: His Duty

    The woman in his bed was starting to cloud his thoughts, pulling him away from the purpose he had set for himself. This marriage was supposed to be about duty. A promise kept to her father. A strategic bond. She was intelligent, shared his ideals, and yes she was beautiful, mysterious, and challenging in a way he hadn’t expected. He thought he might enjoy her company.But that was all it was supposed to be.It couldn’t become anything more.So why did he feel like this now?He let out a sigh, a heaviness pressing on his chest. Maybe it was just guilt. The way she looked—so wounded, so broken—it stirred something in him. Maybe it was sympathy. Or maybe it was the guilt of knowing what he knew... and knowing that, one day, she might find out.What then?A woman like Aria if she ever uncovered the truth she might not survive it. Whether she understood what it meant or not, it would crush her.The thought darkened his expression as he entered the courtroom.He barely paid attention to the
