Thank you so much for coming to this journey with me in Revenge of The Shadow Heir! I started this story with a completely different story arc in mind, and I can't believe I've already reached the end of Dahlia and Tristan's love story.
I dedicate this novel to the person who inspired me to take on writing again (and write romance stories, which wasn't really the genre I honestly saw myself writing). Here's to more meaningful memories together, sweetie! :).
And to all those who have ever dreamed of being a writer or of being anything else - chase that dream! You were made to lust after it for a purpose.
Glory to God always!
I might take some hiatus after this story, but I assure you this won't be the last I will write.
Thanks a lot again, dearests, and happy reading!

Revenge of The Shadow Heir Prologue
SEVENTH MONTH OF YEAR 992. DAHLIA: “I dragged myself through hell just to make you suffer, and I’ll make sure you really suffer!” These were your bitter words to me, my dearest Tristan, the words that had finally woke me up and shook me awake for what you really were. You said you’ve only come to me for revenge – to see me spill the blood that have been spilled similarly by your pack, by your own people, but did you not see that I was also one of your people? I am your wife now, your other half… Do you really think so poorly of me that you’d rather see me die and wither away like this rather than save me? When I accepted your hand back then, I admit that I was scared… I have never known what love was like. I had never known what freedom was like too, and you had given me those choices when you extended your hands towards me. “Dahlly,” you said, calling me softly by my childhood name, “Dahlly, come and run away with me. Come with me… Yo

THIRD MONTH OF YEAR 992, A FEW MONTHS BEFORE THE TRAGEDY.DAHLIA:“Waah, mama,” the little girl wailed as I applied the ointment on her wounds. I tried to be as gentle as I could, but it didn’t seem to work much.“Mama, mama, it hurts!”I bit my lips. My heart hurt a lot seeing this small child weep in front of me. I soothed her in an attempt to make her feel better. I still needed to apply the rest of the ointment and patch the wounds afterwards, but I see it will take us more time to finish up in this state.“Don’t cry, baby,” I said as gently as I could. “We just have to put a little bit more medicine, and we will finish up so that you can play, alright? Just a little bit more…”She evaded my attempts to put the medical salve by writhing and thrashing about. I knew I should have eased the pain away when I first applied the ointment…“Don’t cry, Ay

DAHLIA:“Good job, everyone. Now let’s go home,” I told them after finishing up on today’s charity work.Everybody was tired, but they were all smiling. Once everything has been cleared away and the supplies were safely loaded back into the wagon, I boarded the carriage with Lina, and we journeyed back together to the mansion.“Lady Dahlia, how long are you planning to give these free medical services along the poor men’s villages,” Lina asked.Lina was only two years older than me, and we grew up together. She was almost like a sister, but even though I loved her to death, I always hated this side of her – the side that occasionally spoke so harshly against the poor and the common people.“Whatever do you mean, Lina? I’ll do this forever,” I said.“Surely you don’t mean that, right, my lady? How about when you become the queen? I don’t think you will either

DAHLIA:This was it. I was going to die in this manner. I closed my eyes and raised the dagger as high as I could.I waited for the sharp pain that the fangs of the wild rogue would bring, but it didn’t come. I opened my eyes slowly.That’s when I saw it – a great white wolf that was double my human size! He was clutching the rogue’s neck with his teeth, and his immaculate fur was drenched in blood.The second rogue fell upon his side, but a swift swipe of his paw hurled him violently away somewhere.Who was this wolf? Why was he attacking these rogues?I tried to look closely at him, but I don’t recognize him at all. Was he part of Kaist’s guards? If so, Kaist himself must be around here somewhere…At that exact instant, my nostril was filled with an extraordinary smell. It was the scent of lemons and the wet woodlands.I immediately recognized it as the scent of the great, white wolf

DAHLIA:I woke up to the smell of burning firewood and into the arms of someone clutching me so tightly inside a cave.I yelped in alarm. For a few seconds, I had forgotten what had happened. I didn’t know where I was or how I got there.“W-What?…”“I see you’ve woken up.”It was a man who was holding me close. I tried to look back at him, but he held me even tighter that I cannot seem to breathe.“Who… Who are you?”He didn’t have to answer me at all. At that exact moment, I remembered clutching a furry body as I fell down the cliff towards my death…“Don’t squirm so hard, my lady… Otherwise, you’d get my body too damn excited.”As soon as he said this, my body immediately stiffened. I felt every inch of my face turning red. Even the hairs at the back of my neck stood up when I realized that he was breathing right n

DAHLIA:“Do you really want to go home, Dahlia?...”My insides were turning wild. Why was he saying my name with such a sultry voice?“I… I… I think I have to go… now…”I finally said it. I looked away from his mesmerizing eyes and beautifully naked body and forced myself to look at the flickering flames at my side.“Let’s go now. Please take me back home.”It was taking every inch of me to resist him. If I looked back in his eyes, I fear I really won’t have the strength to refuse.“As you wish,” he replied, cold now. He swiftly transformed into a great white wolf. He growled at me.“Get on top. I’ll take you back.”After I have extinguished the fire with the bucket he had prepared beforehand, I nervously climbed to the white wolf’s back and clung into his fur.“Please be caref-!”I ha

DAHLIA: “Lady Dahlia, are you sure you’re alright?” “Umm, yeah… yes…” It was not true. My head and heart were in a daze. Ever since the white wolf had left, it felt like my heart was in excruciating pain that I cannot speak. Were all fated mate partings like this? ‘Of course, what were you thinking,’ Eve said. After speaking her first words to me earlier, she found the power of her speech so amusing that all she could do now was talk. ‘Fated mates are destined by the Moon Goddess herself. Once a wolf finds his or her fated mate, he or she becomes complete. What do you think will happen once you separate again? It’s like splitting your soul in half!’ It felt exactly like that - like my heart was splitting itself into pieces, crushing my whole being. I wanted to cry and whimper, but I could not. I was still a long way from home… It was already morning time. After finding me, Sir Raleigh, Rick, Lina, and I stopped by an inn in the next vi

DAHLIA:“Of course, Dahlia… You won’t expect me to really do that, did you? We’re not even sure you’ve found your real mate yet. What if he turned out to be some hoax?”Both Kaist and I are of the same age – nineteen years old - and we both haven’t found each other’s mate yet until today. It was during our younger years when Kaist had this ridiculous idea one day.“Dahlia, if we haven’t found our mate yet when we turn seventeen, will you just marry me?”Seventeen was the usual age of fated mate awakening for werewolves like us. We were both fifteen at that time. I remembered laughing hysterically when Kaist said this to me.“Why are you laughing that hard? Did I say something funny?”“Oh, I thought you were joking, Prince Kaist,” I said as I wiped a tear away from my eyes.“So, how about it? I don’t like to marry anyone I

Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 181: End Of Our Story
DAHLIA:“Dahlia, I have confessed everything to you before. I don’t know how much you remember of it after your accident though, so I am sorry for hurting you again,” Tristan began.“It was true. I casted a spell that was why the mate mark appeared in your body after our first night together. I was sure you were not my mate, and I was not yours. I casted a different spell on myself a few years ago to suppress finding my own mate, so I was confident when I approached you.”“However, the more I stayed beside you, the surer I had become that you were my destined mate… There wasn’t any day that I didn’t regret doing that…”Tears flowed from both our eyes. I knew it from my memory. We did have this conversation before, but it was still heartbreaking to hear Tristan’s side of the story.“When you had switched appearances with Samalah, I was foolish enough not to recognize you
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 180: Awakened
DAHLIA: I was in a dark and suffocating place that I can’t even see my own hands and feet. I tried standing still, but nothing was happening, so I decided to move around. I started calling to my wolf. ‘Eva!’ Again, I shouted, ‘Eva!’ There was no answer. I was running wildly, or at least I thought I was. No one can say that this was all happening in my head. Goddess, I couldn’t even see if my body was still intact! I tried to touch my cheek just so I could verify I am still alive, still seeing, still feeling. The last thing I could honestly remember was King Helion Cosco drinking the blood off my neck. I felt around my neck. There weren’t any wounds of any form of punctures. Am I still existing in the real world, or is this all just a dying person’s dream? Just then, I heard an anguished voice. “Dahlia!” It was the voice I had longed to hear for a long time. “Tristan!” I started ru
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 179: Stay Away For Good
TRISTAN: Irvan, that scoundrel that caused Samalah to get into an accident and had caused Dahlia’s agony, was a conjurer! Perhaps that was why they had left the dead bodies here instead of burying or burning them. It wasn’t just for show after all. The animated bodies started to close in on us. I thought it would be easy to defeat them since they were dead. However, they have the faces of people whome we had once seen or knew… It was a bit fortunate that most of them were just people whom I have casually met at Talandor, but I could only imagine that this battle must be too hard for Kaist. As we tried to knock out the dead bodies, the dragon bones swoop down on us, trying to pick on the flesh on our back. Even without a rider, the dragon bones were agile. This was really a dangerous thing. I just finished hurling a corpse somewhere far away, when suddenly, I looked up to see a dragon bone aiming to pluck my eyes away. I
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 178: Beloved
TRISTAN: I galloped towards the edge of the plain leading to the Great Temple where I could smell my Dahlia’s scent. In the past, I had loved this walk from the forest towards the temple where my father would regularly burn an offering to the Moon Goddess Selene. Now, this same path was packed with vampires, attacking me from left and right. It was a hard fight. I felt like I was a bug trying to battle out hordes of ants to get to the other side. The more I stayed here, the more endangered Dahlia could become. Suddenly, I heard a voice roar. “Get down!” My instincts kicked in, and I followed it. As soon as I ducked down, bolts of fire started to rain down on my path, burning the Blasted Ones that crowded my way. I looked back sharply to discover a non-familiar wolf. It was golden brown with a stone in its head that shone like the midday sun. So this was how Kaist’s Shadow Rune wolf looked like. He must have already acce
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 177: Ritual By The Temple
DAHLIA: I rested my hope that if Count Jeteris himself or the people from Talandor could see me, they’d try to help me out. After all, I was someone they knew, someone who interacted with them, and someone they had sworn to protect as knights of Talandor. Surely, they wouldn’t let anyone from the Vampire Clan kill a she-wolf they had once known... But all those hopes were crushed when I saw what awaited us at the temple. The outer courts of the temple were nothing but mere rubbles of stones and sands now, but one could still gain the impression that it was a grand structure once. I had seen the tumbled-down appearance of the temple in a distance as King Helion dragged me to it, but as we entered its vicinity, I was shocked beyond belief. All around, corpses of werewolves lay lifelessly on the ground. “W-What did you do,” I asked in horror. “The foolish count wanted my help, but he didn’t agree with taking you as my queen, so…”
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 176: Plans and Intentions
TRISTAN: “Brother, look out!” I swerved to the right by mistake, which ended up being good as I had dodged a blow against my skull. Livia and I had been fighting against the Blasted Ones for hours now, but they do not seem to be depleting. How in the world can the Apricus King call in this many of his men? Worse of all, Livia’s state was getting worse and worse as time went by… I hate to admit it, but I don’t think I could last fighting against them for a long time too. I struggled to get on my feet, thinking of how wretched I was to have sent the one person I loved the most towards her death. Memories of when I first saw Dahlia flashed by my head as I attacked one vampire after another. Lady Dahlia Hurst – the gentle rose of the kingdom – the person people looked up to and envied… My first thought was that such a person would be nothing more than a spoiled brat. She had been under the spotlight since she was yo
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 175: Boulder
KAIST:It was a call to help Count Abell. Wolves from the White Fang Pack immediately tore their shirts and started transforming into their wolf form.“Prince Kaist, do you mean to say Tristan and Samalah… I mean Dahlia are in danger,” Thesla hurriedly asked.I nodded. “Yes. We will be going now. Get the women, children, elderly, and the sick inside the town hall. Bar the doors, and don’t let anyone inside the village. I will return here for the lady when everything is over,” I told the villagers.There was a murmur around the villagers.“Prince Kaist, I couldn’t speak for everyone, but I will come with you. Dahlia has become a friend and a family to Efiro and I. I don’t want to just sit and do nothing when I know she’s in danger!”“Very well.” I turned to the crowd. “Everyone who wishes to join us may come. As for the rest of you, please secure the village.
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 174: Rally Behind The Alpha
TRISTAN: “No, take her back! Give Dahlia back to us,” I shouted. The vampires around us poised themselves for an attack and smiled. They could sense the blood palpitating in my veins as I tensed up. They were getting excited on the prospect of violence as their true nature dictates. “Finders keepers” was all I heard from the damned king of the vampires. Maybe this was all a lie. Maybe the king of the Blasted Ones was toying with my sanity… How did I end up in this? Why did I give Dahlia to them? It felt like I was in a sort of reverie. Everything felt hazy. It was as if things were coming at me in slow motion. I could only watch as Dahlia’s golden brown hair billowed in the wind. King Helion towered over her. He clutched her by the wrist, and when she refused to tear her eyes away from me, he grappled at her shoulders and took her away more forcefully, twisting her face away from mine. I could only watch as trails of te
