Gilded captive heart
Chapter 40

The brothers had meticulously tracked down the merchant's ship, a vessel steeped in shadows and secrecy. It was a place where illegal deals were struck, and where Nova, their beloved mate, had been taken against her will.

As they boarded the ship, cloaked in a shroud of determination, their eyes scanned their surroundings with caution. They knew they had to tread lightly, for the merchant's accomplices were likely still lurking, ready to protect their malevolent trade.

With swift and precise movements, they dispatched anyone who dared to stand in their way. Their tails slashed through the air, and their regal presence sent a clear message: they would stop at nothing to rescue Nova.

Each brother moved with a unique blend of grace and power, seamlessly coordinating their efforts. They fought as one, a united force bound by love and a shared goal. It was a testament to their unbreakable bond and unwavering commitment.

As they delved deeper into the heart of the merchant's ship, they could sense that they were getting closer to Nova. The anticipation fueled their determination, and they pressed forward with even greater resolve.

The confrontation with the merchant was inevitable, and the brothers were prepared to do whatever it took to bring Nova home. They were warriors, kings, and, above all, they were lovers on a mission to reunite with the mate who had captured their hearts.
