Dutiful Love

Almost five thousand years ago, Selene was the strongest kingdom in the universe, ruled by Cyrus Sol Selene. Rumours had it that he killed his father to take over the throne. Everybody bowed down at his shadow's mere presence. Everyone except her. Nila was King Veer's 15th daughter. Out of his 18 children, she was the least favoured. As King Veer’s kingdom faced an impending attack from Cyrus, he desperately chose to offer Nila as a sacrifice to the werewolf king. How will this marriage turn out to be? Will she find a way to escape the clutches of the werewolf king? Excerpt Nila gasped, her face turning red due to rage and embarrassment ''You cheated! How could you fool me with another identity?'' Cyrus chuckled inching closer to her until her back hit one of the pillars, ''Look who is talking about identity, you thought wearing a wig could hide the fact that you were a woman?''

The monsters were relentless. One lunged toward Nila, its claws extended. Cyrus roared, his wolf instincts surging to the surface as he intercepted the creature, driving his blade through its chest. "Stay close!" he barked, his protective instincts on high alert.

By dawn, the monsters had been driven back, their charred and broken bodies littering the palace. The fires in the forest still smouldered, but the kingdom had been saved—for now.

Cyrus and Nila, bloodied but unbroken, returned to the royal chambers to find Arian waiting for them, his eyes wide with worry. He ran to them, throwing his arms around their legs. "Mama! Papa! I was so scared!"

Cyrus knelt, pulling his son into a fierce embrace. "It's over," he said softly. "You're safe."

Nila kissed the top of Arian's head, tears of relief streaming down her face. "We're all safe."
