(An Aardwulf Tale of vengeance, loss of innocence, violence and love.) Lend your ears dear one, for a King is a saint and cannot rule, and his son is a devil and should not. Remember that and you might live. *Excerpt* "Sarah, they will use those devices to ensnare you before you even realise the game has begun, and by then, no measure of fighting or politics will help you, as they've already conquered your mind through something as brittle as your heart." "Cedri- " "No. Listen. The fact that you hesitated when I touched you, means you've already lost." *** She loathed them. Truth be told, she was disgusted at everything they were and everything that they represented. She reviled them for their royalty, their ability to force loyalty and to frivolously sanction destruction. She loathed them for their carelessness and their entitlement. She would definitely see them rotting in shallow graves. It was their fault entirely that Sarah learnt to use a knife before she could use a spoon. It was because of their existence that she craved bloodlust and desired violence. It was their Order that she would never be able to be her aardwulf in true sense or form. Sarah was entirely loyal, but only to her vengeance. She was self-sacrificial, but only for her family. However, Sarah would never be altruistic nor submissive - such that the nature of an aardwulf was created to be. She would never be. She could not feel the sanctity of life. But there were moments, when she would witness innocence in the world around her, that she mourned the loss of her fragile heart. Standing now, however, in front of the Royals, who stole her childhood, broke her father and tore apart her family bonds, she was purely glad for the absence - it would make ripping their hearts out an absolute pleasure. Especially his.

His hand found her waist, pulling her close until she could feel every hard line of his body pressed against hers. "This attitude of yours... do you think it's cute?" he murmured, voice low, dangerous, sending chills down her spine. Valentina swallowed, her heart racing. "Do you think you can intimidate me, Xavier?" she shot back, daring to push against the tension crackling between them. But her breath hitched as his fingers slid along her jaw, tilting her face up to meet his gaze-intense, searing, claiming her with just a look. "Intimidate you?" he leaned down, his lips ghosting just over hers. "No, Valentina. I'm planning to ruin you." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the shadowed halls of the Rossi mansion, Valentina returns home only to be bound to a dangerous future she never asked for. Fiercely independent and unwaveringly defiant, she's thrust into an arranged marriage with the merciless mafia boss, Xavier Volkov-a man whose intense gaze she once adored, but whose life now epitomizes everything she despises. But Xavier isn't the same boy who once protected her. Cold, calculating, and irresistibly powerful, he's come back with one goal: to make her his, no matter the cost. As their worlds collide, desire tangles with fury, and old memories kindle into an uncontrollable flame that neither of them can extinguish. With the fate of two empires on the line, passion blurs with vengeance, and Valentina must decide if she can survive the darkness surrounding Xavier...or if she'll end up surrendering to it.

*Warning* This story contains spoilers for the Nameless Queen. This story is a one shot. It is about what might happen in about eleven years after the end of The Nameless Queen but is a stand-alone as well. You can read it without having to read The Nameless Queen and it will still make perfect sense. There will only be one chapter for this story but I might use this scene if I write a second book for The Nameless Queen.
