[Valtara Family War Room – Morning]

The grand war room of House Valtara was filled with the heavy presence of power. Sitting at the head of the war table was Leonhardt Valtara, his crimson eyes burning with ambition. His two wives—Celestia and Evelyn—stood beside him.

Evelyn still struggled with her new role as Leonhardt's wife, but the constant possessiveness he showed toward her had begun to dull her resistance. Every time she closed her eyes, she could still feel his touch—his burning, dominating touch. And her body... longed for more.

Celestia, on the other hand, delighted in Evelyn's internal struggle.

"Hehehe~ My, my~ Looks like the former Heroine is having trouble adjusting to her new life," Celestia teased.

Evelyn clenched her fists. "I... I'm fine."

Leonhardt smirked. "You'll grow used to it soon enough, my dear."

His words were laced with dark dominance, and it made Evelyn's heart skip a beat.

"Now then," Leonhardt turned toward his father, Duke Alastor Valtara. "Let's talk about crushing the Hero completely."

The Valtara family grinned.

"Excellent," Duke Alastor chuckled. "What's the plan?"

Leonhardt's smirk darkened. "We'll attack his remaining forces and publicly humiliate him."

Celestia purred. "Kyaaa~ So sadistic~ I love it~"

Evelyn's heart clenched. "...Rael..."

But Leonhardt's arm wrapped around her waist, his grip firm. "You are my wife now. Stop thinking about him."

Her body trembled. "...Yes, my lord."

◇◇◇

[Hero's Camp – Afternoon]

Rael's camp was in ruins. His soldiers were demoralized. His summoned beast, Silverfang, was still recovering. And worst of all—his beloved Evelyn was gone.

His heart burned with hatred.

"Leonhardt...!!"

Rael slammed his fist into the ground. "I'LL KILL YOU!!"

But deep down, he knew.

Leonhardt had already won.

And the worst part? Evelyn didn't resist. She willingly became his wife.

Rael's mind snapped further. His connection with Silverfang weakened as his sanity crumbled.

"...I have to get her back..."

But how?

He was powerless now.

◇◇◇

[Valtara Mansion – Night]

That night, Leonhardt did not sleep.

He stood on his balcony, gazing down at his fortress.

Evelyn approached him, hesitant. "...Leon."

He turned and smirked. "Couldn't sleep?"

She bit her lip. "...I... I'm confused."

"About what?"

"...I still love Rael."

Silence.

Then—

Leonhardt grabbed her chin, forcing her to look into his crimson eyes.

"You don't."

"...W-What...?"

"You don't love him anymore, Evelyn. If you did—" He pulled her into a deep, passionate kiss. "—you wouldn't melt in my arms."

"Mmmph!!"

Evelyn's mind screamed for her to resist—but her body did the opposite. Her knees weakened, and she clung to him.

When he pulled away, his smirk deepened.

"You're mine now."

Tears welled up in her eyes. "...Yes... my lord..."

Her heart was breaking—and so was her loyalty toward Rael.

◇◇◇

The next day, Leonhardt led his army to crush the Hero's remaining forces.

Evelyn watched from the balcony—her heart a tangled mess.

"...Rael..."

But her fingers subconsciously touched her lips.

The memory of Leonhardt's kiss still burned.

And slowly—her love for Rael began to die.

Little by little.

Until nothing remained.
