"Oh, no!" My eyes widened in shock as I realized what I had just done. I stared at the bite mark I had left on His Majesty's neck. "I'm so sorry, Your Majesty!" I quickly lowered my head, my voice trembling with guilt. Titus chuckled softly, his warm breath tickling my skin. "What are you apologizing for?" he asked, pulling me closer to him as we lay on his massive bed. He began planting gentle kisses on my shoulder and neck, each touch sending shivers down my spine. Our bodies had barely separated, yet he was already covering me with soft kisses, making my heart race. I was torn between the warmth of his affection and the guilt gnawing at me. "I marked you. I wasn't supposed to do that. It's one of the rules they told us upon entering your palace. We aren't supposed to mark you or form a bond with you, as it will hinder you from fulfilling your duty to the other concubines," I explained, my voice filled with remorse. "Please, allow y me to break our bond," I offered, even though I had no idea what it might cost me.

He chuckled again before placing a tender kiss on my lips. "You don't have to do that. Marks have no effect on me," he said, his tone reassuring yet vague.

I frowned in confusion. "You've lost me, Your Majesty. What do you mean by marking doesn't work on you?"

Titus sighed, a hint of sadness flickering in his eyes. "Do you think you're the first woman who tried to mate with me during intercourse?" He said it casually. "I've been walking this earth for thousands of years, and never once have I met a mate or marked anyone. I have no mate, Sage. That's my curse." Reality

sank in quickly. Of course, he had other wives. I wasn't the first to try to mark him. The weight of his words pressed heavily on my chest.

"But... how is that possible?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.

It seems like he didn't hear what I just said. He turned to me with a frown on his forehead. "Wait a minute. You got your wolf?" he asked.

I held my breath upon him mentioning my wolf. "It seems that way, Your Majesty," I replied nervously.

He then looked me in the eye, as if he were searching for something. It took me by surprise when he suddenly grabbed my nape and smelled my neck.

I was holding my breath as I watched him. My heart constricts when I notice the disappointment in his

eyes.

"What's wrong, Your Majesty?" I asked, confusion clouding my voice.

"Nothing," he replied coldly. The warmth that had been in his eyes only a few a few moments before was

gone. "I heard your family still resides in the castle," he said.

uptly changing the topic.

"They are? That's odd," I replied, taken aback by the sudden shift in conversation.

What do

you want to do with them?" he asked, his tone dark and serious.

I blinked, surprised by his question. "I don't understand, Your Majesty."

"Your father sold you off, and your sister tried to expose your secret in order to get rid of you. Don't you want revenge? Because I can give that to you," he said, his voice filled with a mix of anger and something else I couldn't quite place.

His words hung in the air, heavy and charged. I stayed silent for a minute, contemplating his question. Do I want revenge?

The memories of

of my family's betrayal flashed through my mind. My father, cold and unfeeling, had sold me off without a second thought. My sister, filled with jealousy, had tried to expose my secret, hoping to see me ruined. The pain of their actions was still fresh, and the wounds were deep. But did I want revenge? Did I want to stoop to their level and seek retribution for their cruelty?

I

"I... I don't know," I admitted, my voice barely above a whisper. "They hurt me, yes. But I don't know if I can bring myself to seek revenge. It won't change what they did. It won't undo the pain." Titus studied me for a long moment, his expression unreadable. "You're too kind for this world, Sage. You have to realize that there are people who don't know when to stop until you show them how to. Your sister -I don't think she's going to back down just because she failed once. I'm sure that she will try to hurt you again," he said finally, His words resonated with me deeply, stirring a mix of comfort

just about retaliation or sinking to their level. It was about and challenge within my heart. Titus had offered me the opportunity for revenge, a chance to confront the pain my family had caused. But as I reflected on his question, I realized that seeking vengeance wasn't

asserting my own strength, reclaiming my dignity, and ensuring that their actions would never harm me or anyone else again. "I just want nothing to do with them, Your Majesty," I confessed softly, my voice steady despite the tumult of emotions inside me. "Come to think of it, what they did eventually led me to where I am today. If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have met you, Your Majesty Titus regarded me with a thoughtful expression, his eyes searching mine as if trying to understand the depth of my resolve. His hand found mine; his touch was reassuring and warm. "You've grown stronger from the day I met you, Sage, he murmured, his voice low and gentle.

I nodded, feeling a sense of peace settle over me. With great chaos coming over us, my family was just a little pawn in this chaotic game of power. I had no time to get back to them. I need to know how I will be able to change my future-our future. I had no idea when the evil inside Titus would break free. But I had a feeling that it would come sooner, so I needed to prepare.

He then leaned closer samy face before planting a soft, gentle kiss on my lips. As Titus pulled away from our kiss, his gare was filled with intensity. You can stay here for a while. I need to go see Scott. I have something to discuss with him he said. I nodded, watching him as he began to dress. Til just freshen up, then I'll return to my chamber, Your Majesty," I replied.

He paused, turning back to me with a soft smile. "You can call me by my name when we're alone." he insisted, stepping doser to me once more. His lips brushed against mine in another fleeting kiss.

Your Majesty, I don't think-"I started to protest.

"That's an order, he interrupted gently yet firmly.

I bit my lip, torn between obedience and the unfamiliar intimacy of using his name. Yes. Your-th I mean. Times' I finally managed the name feeling strange and intimate on my tongue.

He chuckled softly, his hand brushing my cheek affectionately. "Get some rest. Sage, he murmured, his eyes warm with understanding.

As Titus left. I sat on the bed, feeling a mix of different feelings. Calling him by his name felt like I was breaking a rule, but it also made me feel closer to him, which was both exciting and unsettling. I realized our relationship was changing, moving beyond rules and duties to something deeper. After a sigh. I stood up and fixed my clothes. Looking in the mirror, I wondered what would happen nex for us. Despite not knowing what was ahead, one thing was certain-I'm starting to develop feelings for His Majesty.
