Female CEO Aurora fell from grace overnight, and everyone mocked her husband Victor for being poor and useless. In reality, Victor was the retired God of War, Ares, wielding global military, political, and financial power. Stella and Elias repeatedly schemed to suppress and abduct Aurora. Victor publicly unveiled his armed might, sweeping aside their enemies. He cleared all obstacles in the New York business world, traveled to Europe to crush Magnus's power-grab conspiracy, reclaimed all of Aurora's assets, and bestowed upon her a crown and an island. Together, they commanded transnational capital, enduring gunfights and fierce battles in ancient castles, finally holding a "wedding of the century" in the Aegean Sea. Wielding the world's wealth and power, they remained exclusively devoted to each other for life.
