Wants
Ashton made his way to Nimbus Summit Heights. The moment he stepped inside the villa, he felt a surging Phoenixborne aura fill the space, and the air grew intensely hot under its pressure.
His Drakeborne lineage surged in response, rising to meet the Phoenixborne energy around him. The two forces intertwined and began to circulate in opposing harmony.
Ashton’s eyes darkened slightly as he sensed the change. When his Drakeborne power merged with Faye’s Phoenixborne force, a new force took shape between them. It was more violent, more searing, and stronger than either power alone.
“Maybe I should experiment with a fusion technique,” he murmured to himself.
“You’re finally here.”
Just then, a slender, striking figure stepped into his line of sight.
Faye stood before him, dressed casually in denim shorts and a white, cropped top that left her midriff exposed. The simple outfit accentuated the natural curves of her figure, highlighting the fullness of her chest and the toned lines of her body.
Even her long, straight, fair legs carried a bold, striking beauty that made it difficult to look away.
What made it impossible to look away was her face. It was stunning and unmatched, paired with a presence that felt entirely her own. Looking at her, one couldn’t help but wonder how a woman with such presence could exist.
As she moved closer, the Drakell technique within him began circulating rapidly. Heat surged through his body, and his Drakeborne lineage flared, urging him to seize the chosen maiden before him.
“Is Uncle Moore still determined to form an alliance with Cassian?”
Ashton had clearly sensed the shift in Faye’s emotions before he asked the question.
Her expression dimmed, and she gave a small nod.
“My dad said that everything he has today was given to him by Cassian, the King of Javonbury. He says he cannot betray him,” she explained.
He understood George’s choice. Without Cassian, it would have been impossible for George to remain the richest man in Javonbury for decades.
After a brief pause, Ashton said, “Honestly, you don’t have to fight alongside me.”
“I’m not doing this for you.”
Faye bit her lower lip and spoke in a low voice.
“All these years, my dad has been acting as Cassian’s right–hand man. He looks powerful and carries the title of Javonbury’s richest man, but most of the profits go straight to Cassian.
“My dad has also been forced to handle matters against his own will. He grew tired of it a long time ago, but he never had the freedom to choose…”
She met his steady gaze, her fingers curling into a tight fist as resolve shone in her eyes.
Faye went on, “If we defeat Cassian, and if you become the new King of Javonbury, then my dad can finally be freed. I’m doing this to save him. That’s why we have to win this fight.”
Ashton nodded and answered without hesitation, “I’ll kill Cassian and make sure he never becomes a threat again.”
His words made her tremble slightly, and her brows drew together.
“You already know he belongs to the Lowery family. If he dies, the consequences won’t be something you can handle.”

He replied, “If I don’t kill him, our dad will never truly be free.”
“That’s true… No, wait. Since when was he our dad?”
Faye glared at Ashton, her face flushed with embarrassment and anger.
He stepped forward and wrapped an arm around her slim waist, drawing her close as he smiled.
“Did you forget that your mom already betrothed you to me? Don’t worry. As her future son–in–law, I’ll make sure your dad breaks free from Cassian’s control.”
“Let go.”
Faye pulled herself out of his arms, and her expression turned serious.
“Stop joking. My dad is also a divine realm expert.”
Ashton’s eyes narrowed. He had suspected as much, but hearing it confirmed still caught him off guard.
“That means we’re facing two terrifying divine realm experts. And as for your ex–wife, Roxy, I have a feeling Cassian has a special purpose for her. You need to be careful,” Faye said after analyzing the situation.
