Samuel's POV
A golden summoning circle glowed beneath my feet, ancient symbols swirling around me in a hypnotic dance. The sheer force behind the magic made my skin tingle, and before I could even react, my surroundings shifted.
One moment, I was standing in the middle of the battlefield, still testing the new power I had gained. The next—
I was in her domain.
The air was thick with an intoxicating presence, heavy and charged like a storm waiting to break. The walls of the grand chamber shimmered like liquid gold, pulsating with power. Everything about this place screamed authority—but the figure standing before me was what truly caught my attention.
Queen Valeria.
The Titan Queen herself.
She stood before me, draped in crimson silk that did little to conceal the deadly curves beneath. Her crimson eyes burned with a mixture of amusement and something far more primal. Her long crimson hair cascaded down her back like a river of blood, framing a face that could make gods tremble.
I smirked. "Well, it looks like it's about the promise I made."
Her eyes flickered with interest. "Indeed. I must say, Samuel, you are quite different from the men I've encountered."
She stepped closer, her presence alone sending a tremor through the room. My body reacted instinctively—not in fear, but in anticipation.
And then—
The entire room shifted.
In an instant, the grand chamber around us blurred and morphed, transforming into something far more intimate.
A massive bed, draped in luxurious dark red sheets, stood at the center of the room. The air thickened with something far more primal, and I let out a low chuckle.
"Damn," I mused, tilting my head. "Didn't expect you to be so quick—summoning both of us straight into your bedroom."
Valeria let out a soft, sultry laugh, her eyes glinting with predatory amusement. "Why waste time?"
She took another step forward, her bare feet making no sound against the velvet floor. I could feel the power radiating off her—an overwhelming, intoxicating force of nature that made my instincts scream in both warning and desire.
"I've had many Titans in my bed," she said, trailing a single finger along my chest, her touch burning against my skin. "Yet not one has ever been able to satisfy me."
I arched an eyebrow. "Is that a challenge?"
She smirked, her lips parting slightly. "If you can truly handle me, then perhaps I'll tell you something… much more interesting."
I let out a low chuckle, my own blood starting to burn.
"You wanna go rougher or gentle?" I asked, tilting her chin up so our eyes met.
Her crimson gaze darkened with something dangerous, something wild. Then, she laughed—a deep, throaty sound that sent a shiver down my spine.
"I'm a Titan," she whispered, her voice laced with hunger. "And in my human form, I'm even more… hungry. Can you cope with me, Samuel?"
I grinned, rolling my shoulders. "Guess we're about to find out."
Valeria's POV
His emerald green eyes locked onto mine, intense and unwavering. Before I could react, his lips crashed against mine.
The kiss was passionate, consuming, and for the first time in centuries—I felt it.
Damn bastard. He caught me off guard.
Before I could regain control, he moved with effortless precision, slipping the gown from my shoulders. In an instant, the silky fabric pooled at my feet, leaving me completely exposed before him.
His gaze raked over my body, dark and hungry.
A smirk tugged at his lips as he murmured, "You truly have a body sculpted by the heavens."
His words sent an unexpected shiver down my spine.
Then, without hesitation, he shrugged off his black jacket, unbuttoned his white shirt, and let it fall.
Damn it.
My breath hitched.
What kind of torture is this?
His body was flawless, every muscle carved to perfection. I had taken Titans, warriors, and kings into my bed—but none of them looked this good.
Such perfection should be a crime.
And yet—he was here. In my bed. Mine to claim.
Then—he unbuckled his belt and let his pants drop.
I froze.
My eyes widened as I took him in—and for the first time in millennia, I was truly shocked.
It's too big.
I had never seen anyone like this before.
Before I could even gather my thoughts, he leaned in, his breath warm against my ear as he pulled me close, his voice dripping with challenge and amusement.
"So, what's it gonna be, Queen? The bed... or should we start in the bathroom first?"
