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?''

Cyrus noticed the tightness in her posture, the way her fingers tapped restlessly against her thigh. He turned to her, his eyes searching hers.

"You've been quiet since we left Navaria," Cyrus said, breaking the silence. ''It was your hometown. You didn't return to the palace, and you didn't want to stay there much. Are you fine?"
