Bet/fold. DD's reasons are spot on.

the kicker here imo is that you stopped to look at your cards. if you didn't and just smooth called his raise, & donked the river, i'd be more likely to bet/call.

but imo this LOOKS like you have an unpaired hand given the call & the pause. when you donk the ace, if he thinks you are bluffing w/ like KQ (and you'd 4 bet him pf w/ that cheese) then he'd call. not raise. if he riases your river bet, you're pretty much toast.

the only issue here imo is how often he'd raise AKc on the turn. if there's a decent shot at that, i'd bet/call.

otherwise, if he raises, you're looking at a set/flush/ or AT imo after the way you played the turn.
