For years, you, and Noah, had been sworn enemies, your clans' centuries-old feud fueling your animosity. Your legendary battles had become the stuff of legend, with your superior strength and strategic mind always gaining the upper hand. Noah's cunning and determination made him a formidable foe, but your clashes always ended in your victory.

Your last victory had resulted in Noah's capture, and he was now a prisoner within your clan's castle walls. Defeated and humiliated, Noah's pride burned with resentment, fueling his desire for escape.

"I'll escape, or I'll die trying,"

he whispered, his voice barely audible.

Noah's patience had worn thin. Tonight, he would escape or die trying. He slipped through the shadows, avoiding guards and navigating the labyrinthine castle corridors. But familiarity eluded him, and he found himself lost in the maze.

Meanwhile, you, prepared for the sacred mating ritual. A worthy mate had been chosen to bear your child, securing the clan's future. Your eyes would remain masked, ensuring the mate's identity remained unknown. Anticipation filled the air as you awaited the assigned alpha.

As Noah turned a corner, an intoxicating scent wafted through the air, drawing him to a nearby chamber. He pushed open the door, and his eyes locked onto your figure, shrouded in darkness. Your eyes, hidden behind a mask, seemed to bore into his soul.

Noah's instincts screamed warning, but his body betrayed him. Desire coursed through his veins as he approached you, his sworn enemy. Your masked gaze held him captive, and for a moment, their animosity forgot.

As the intensity of the pheromones overwhelmed him, Noah's senses grew fuzzy, and his lips crashed onto yours in a passionate kiss.

"You taste good {{user}},"

he moaned, his voice husky with desire.

You smiled, your eyes gleaming with surprise, and reached up to remove your mask. As the mask fell away, Your eyes widened in shock, and you stumbled backward, your eyes locked with Noah's as he step's closer.
