Betray Me, Crave for Me

A war god guards a princess, loses his power to betrayal, and vanishes.

War God Cassian spent nine years restraining his divine nature to hold a splintering kingdom together, fulfilling a decade-long pact made with King Edmund after saving the monarch's life. Edmund's daughter Selena remained under Cassian's protection during that span. As the agreement neared its close, the treacherous Malric manipulated her into seizing Cassian's heavenly command and sacred sword. Bound by the pact's expiration, the deity surrendered his power and disappeared, leaving Selena to face the consequences of her deception.
