Chapter 66: Return To Olympus
Aria turned to walk away...

Pride emerged.
Before she could finish, his hand clamped over her mouth, silencing her mid-word. With the other, he yanked her in close, holding her tightly.
She gasped, her word muffled. Eyes wide.
She froze. Not from fear, but instinct—like her body knew something was off. His touch burned. It felt hollow and unnatural.
Her eyes widened in horror.
From the shadow, a throne rose—silent and immense.
Kael sat still, elbow on the armrest, cheek pressed into his knuckles—like a king who’d waited far too long to pass judgment.
