Capítulo 57: Restless Night

After Theo gave me tea in the study, I dismissed him. He was reluctant to go, even if he was a little angry about his situation and the lack of power he held. I must have looked worse than I thought for him to put aside his feelings and try to remain by my side.

Or, like me, he thought Faidon might not be the best protection. They were Southern, after all. Putting aside the point that I hold no power in the royal family, there was no reason to kill or protect me. But I'd decided to put those thoughts aside as well; the Alpha Prince, as brutish and barbaric as he appears, was intelligent, irritably so, to use our night in the woods as a means of blackmail.

Who was I to try and figure out what he was thinking? Especially when I have far more troublesome problems to deal with right now.
