Blood of the Beast

Even the gods cannot betray the will of the stars.It’s been a hundred years since Aphrodite has warmed Ares’ bed, a hundred years he’s spent waiting for her. Now they’ll compete again in a game that matters little to him. His prize is far greater than a token or favor.He wants her.For the first time in a very long time, he has a chance to keep her. Because now the ground has shifted, tilted in his favor, and with her footing unsteady, she will fall.He will catch her.And this time, he won’t let go.
