Blood Thirst: God of War
Once revered as an unstoppable force on the battlefield, the God of War… wanted nothing more than a family of his own. Gravely wounded during a mission, he was saved by Nolan Garcia, the only man who treated him with genuine kindness. As a token of trust, the old man arranged for him to marry his granddaughter Quella, giving the weary warrior the warmth of family he had long craved.
But peace wasn't here to stay.
His half-brother Kenneth, wolves in sheep’s clothing, arrived at his doorstep under the pretense of family. They were planning to usurp his place, coveting the wealth and influence of the Garcia household. Kenneth, charming, manipulative, and deceitful, wove lies around the warrior’s wife, poisoning her heart against him. Forced to give until he had nothing left, the warrior bled for a brother who only wanted to ruin him.
But war is never won in a single battle.
As the world turns against him, as these schemes threaten to strip him of everything he holds dear, the God of War will rise again. This time, not to conquer nations, but to reclaim his honor, unmask his enemies, and make those who betrayed him pay in blood.
The battlefield may have changed. But blood still calls for blood.

Chapter: Smoke and Steel
The first thing Julius registered was pain, not the sharp, immediate kind, but the slow, grinding ache of restraint. His limbs were numb, suspended above cold ground by metallic bindings that hissed faintly with hydraulic tension. The room was dim, pulsing with low blue lights, sterile and humming with hidden machines. He couldn’t move, couldn’t speak. Even his eyes fluttered as if underwater.A voice cut through the haze, clinical, male, cold.“Subject 17’s neural activity has stabilized at 82%. Begin Reawakening Protocol calibration.”Another voice replied with sterile precision. “DNA mesh has been extracted. Cross-referencing sample compatibility with Cryo Batch: Theta-Zero through Theta-Nine.”Julius tried to lift his head, to speak, to rage—but his body disobeyed. He was a mind trapped in meat and metal. A caged ghost.“I told you.”The male voice said, approaching the suspended frame, “Lily’s Fang was always the key. His physiology’s regenerative matrix outperformed all prior

Chapter: Static and SilenceJulius couldn’t move.He was aware… barely, of a humming sound above him. Fluorescent lights buzzed in an unseen ceiling. Something cold pressed into his spine. His limbs, his chest, even his jaw felt like they had been filled with wet cement.Where am I?His mind floated like a loose wire. He tried to blink, but he felt nothing. He tried to speak, but his tongue was heavy and immovable like stone.A machine clicked, and the whirr of hydraulics followed. He could hear some fading voices before he lost control and fell into a pit of darkness. Julius drifted in and out of consciousness like a man caught between frozen tides. Everything around him right now was like a vacuum: completely soundless, scentless, and even lightless. His body felt foreign, too heavy to belong to him. His thoughts tried to surface, but they got tangled, like static in a storm.Where am I?The question echoed in his mind before he felt the familiar dizziness again. This time, he woke up to harsh fluorescenc

Chapter: Choice The ballroom turned into absolute chaos all around them. The glassware rattled as windows burst inward, bullets slicing through silk curtains as high screams echoed in the air, heels skidded across marble, and the scent of wine mixed with panic and fear.Julius moved on instinct, grabbing Miley’s arm and diving behind the bar just before another hail of bullets ripped into the crowd. Glass bottles exploded above their heads, raining shards of glass and the red wine down like confetti at a funeral.“Are you hurt?”He asked, crouched over her protectively.“No,” Miley whispered, ducking as another round thudded into the wall above them. “But someone’s going to be if this keeps up.”The air was thick with smoke and terror. Across the room, guests cowered under tables or ducked behind flower arrangements that had once been centerpieces of celebration. Guards scrambled to secure the exits, but they were too late. The enemy was already inside.Just then, amechanical voice echoed through

Chapter: Mr. Popular! The ballroom shimmered under the crystal chandeliers, golden light cascading down like snowfall caught in warmth. Soft strings whispered in the background, and the crowd, buzzing with gossip and restored civility, parted with quiet reverence as Julius entered beside Duke David of Beldham. The sting caused by the humiliation of Kenneth and Quella still lingered in the air. Besides the tall windows, two young women were whispering softly, their holding wine glasses up in front of their lips. They had watched the entire confrontation unfold earlier, initially assuming that Kenneth and Quella were right about Julius, as they were just citizens with good standing, exposing some scam artist trying to cause trouble at the party.“I thought he was bluffing…”Karen, the one with brown hair murmured to her friend, her eyes fixed on Julius. “Or at best, just a commoner hoping to get close to the Duke.”Martha, the blonde one sipped her wine, eyes narrowing.“He’s not just anyone. That’s Juli

Chapter: ShieldKenneth stood frozen, his mouth open in a grimace that wasn’t quite a smile or a snarl. His hand still held the crystal wine glass, but his fingers trembled just enough to betray him. The liquid inside terminated trembled with the thought that every eye at the Beldham manor steps had turned on them. A string quartet faltered inside, and the hush that fell was damning.But the Duke of Beldham wasn’t done.He stepped forward slowly, hands clasped behind his back, the polished boots of a statesman echoing against the marble. “Kenneth Colton. You were invited as a courtesy—an olive branch between old families. Instead, you spat on it like a brat.”Laughter flickered through the crowd… nervous, muffled, but unmistakable. Kenneth flushed red to the ears.“And you,” David turned to Quella, his voice like velvet over steel.“You married into a legacy name, and mistook it for your husband's character. You divorced a great man, and thought you had found someone better… but it will take Kenneth

Chapter: Slapped The city was warmer than Aurelia remembered. The streets pulsed with noise, cars gliding past light-struck windows, and the soft thrum of life that never stopped. But inside the penthouse overlooking the East Crown District, time had slowed down. Aurelia stood in the middle of the living room, one hand trailing the edge of a glass shelf as if trying to feel the texture of normalcy.Julius watched her from the doorway, his frame still carved by war but softened now by presence, by stillness. Miley stood at his side, her arm grazing his. Neither spoke, letting Aurelia breathe in silence.It had been two days since they burned the Citadel to the ground. Two days since the world learned the truth about Project Winter Lily. And two days since Aurelia had set foot in a world that hadn’t tried to cage or silence her.She had eaten little. Slept less. But every hour she lingered, she felt more human.“This sofa,” she said suddenly, running her fingers over the cushions, “I remember this fab

Chapter: CHAPTER 10- HammersThe morning sun felt like hammers against Max's skull as he groaned awake in his quarters, his mouth tasting like he'd gargled desert sand mixed with regret. The empty whiskey bottle on his nightstand served as a brutal reminder of the previous evening's festivities with William and Silver Caldwell.What the hell happened last night? Max thought, pressing the heels of his palms against his temples. And how did I get back here?A cheerful knock at his door made him wince."Come in," Max croaked, his voice barely human.Jackson bounded in with his usual morning enthusiasm, carrying a steaming cup of coffee and what looked like military-grade aspirin."Good morning, sir! You look... well, you look like hell, actually," Jackson said with a grin, setting the coffee within Max's reach. "Rough night?""That's an understatement," Max mumbled, accepting the coffee gratefully. "How exactly did I get back here? The last thing I remember is William challenging me to a drinking contest.""Lieutena

Chapter: CHAPTER 9- Change is coming A knock at his door interrupted his thoughts."Come in," Max called, turning to see Jackson's eager face appearing in the doorway."Sir! I heard you're dining with Commander Caldwell tonight," Jackson said, practically bouncing on his feet. "That's incredible! I brought something that might help."Jackson held up a clean tactical vest, the kind worn by senior personnel during formal occasions at the station."Jackson, you don't need to—" Max began."Please, sir, let me help," Jackson insisted, his young face earnest. "It would be an honor to assist you. After everything you've done since arriving here, it's the least I can do."Max accepted the vest, studying Jackson's enthusiastic expression. This kid would do anything I asked without question. But why would Hamilton send someone so genuinely kind to what they thought was my death sentence?"Jackson," Max said carefully, "can I ask you something? Why exactly were you assigned as my escort?"Jackson's smile faltered slightly. "Well, s

Chapter: CHAPTER 8- Planning The pre-dawn darkness cloaked the eastern watchtower as Silver Caldwell and Annie Chen maintained their vigil, the desert air still carrying the coolness that would vanish within hours. Their voices were low, barely audible above the distant rumble of patrol vehicles returning from night reconnaissance."The cartel activity isn't decreasing," Silver said grimly, studying the latest intelligence reports by lamplight. "If anything, it's intensifying. Three more supply convoys intercepted this week, and our scouts report increased movement in the disputed zones."Annie's expression remained professionally neutral, but her grip tightened on her rifle. "How close are we to declaring it a Major Threat?""Too close," Silver admitted. "If the pattern continues for another two weeks, Command will have no choice. And when that happens...""The new personnel will panic," Annie finished. "Half of them look ready to bolt already.""Which is why we keep this between us for now," Silver said firmly.

Chapter: CHAPTER 7- Silver The oil lamp flickered in Max's cramped quarters as he hunched over a makeshift desk, his pen scratching across pages of military tactical notes. The manual he was writing—a comprehensive guide to border defense strategies—had consumed his attention for hours. The rest of the station had settled into the quiet rhythm of night watch, but Max remained focused, lost in diagrams of defensive positions and supply line calculations.A sharp knock at the door broke his concentration."Come in," Max called, not looking up from his work.The door creaked open, and Silver Caldwell stepped inside, her presence immediately commanding the small space. She wore her standard-issue fatigues, but somehow made them look almost elegant. Her dark eyes swept over the papers scattered across his desk with professional curiosity."Lieutenant Caldwell," Max said, finally looking up. "To what do I owe the pleasure?""Just Silver," she replied, her tone polite but guarded. "I wanted to properly introduce mysel

Chapter: CHAPTER 6- Rich boy"I'm telling you, Martinez, that cartel stronghold shouldn't still be standing," Corporal Jake Thompson wiped sweat from his forehead with a dirty sleeve. "Three weeks now, and those bastards are dug in like ticks on a hound. Command's getting nervous.""Nervous enough to call in family representatives," Private Maria Santos added, her voice dripping with disdain. "Rich boy reinforcements coming to save the day."The cantina erupted in bitter laughter, the sound echoing off the corrugated metal roof."Speaking of rich boys," Sergeant Rodriguez leaned forward conspiratorially, "word is we're getting a Hamilton today. Not just any Hamilton either—some son-in-law nobody."Silver Caldwell sat at a corner table, her dark hair pulled back in a practical ponytail, her desert fatigues bearing the insignia of a station lieutenant. Her aide, Annie Chen, a sharp-eyed woman in her early thirties, nursed a cup of lukewarm coffee while studying the latest patrol reports."A Hamilton, huh?" Silver m

Chapter: CHAPTER 5 - Escort duty"Sir! Mr. Sterling, sir!"The enthusiastic voice made Max turn to see a young man in ranger uniform jogging toward him, his face flushed with excitement and exertion. The ranger couldn't have been more than twenty-two, with sandy hair and bright eyes that held far too much optimism for someone heading to a war zone."You must be Jackson," Max said, straightening as the young man approached."Yes, sir! Ranger Jackson Mills, reporting for escort duty!" Jackson snapped to attention with military precision, though his grin undermined the formality. "I can't believe I get to escort you to Meridian Border Station! This is going to be amazing!"Max studied the eager young face before him. Amazing isn't the word I'd use for a suicide mission."Have you been to the border before, Jackson?""No, sir, but I've heard stories! The action, the danger, the glory of defending our homeland!" Jackson's eyes practically sparkled. "I bet you're excited too, right? I mean, after being stuck here playing h
