Theodore

“Where the hell have you been all this time? Why didn’t you take any calls?” my mother’s voice blares out of the phone, forcing me to hold it away from my ear to save my ability to hear.

Leaning back on the couch, I close my eyes, pressing my fingers to the bridge of my nose. “I was working, Mom.”

She tsks disparagingly, making my blood boil. “As if… You know that Fredrik finds the time to call me every day and his beautiful fiancée brings me flowers every week. Aren’t they lovely?”

Thank you for your patience while I recovered from my illness. Unfortunately, it took a great toll on my energy. Let's hope that April will be better for me ^.^

    Theodore“It’s a royal mark.” My heart beats into my throat as I turn around to face Helades standing in the door frame. “They are larger than the usual mark you might have read about. Sorry, I wasn’t able to warn you about that.” I stare at him agape until my brain starts functioning again, making me blink. “Sorry, I must have hallucinated for a second. What?” “A royal mark,” he explains, lifting his finger to point at it. “It is usually bigger than the normal mate marks. Gilda told me about you scrolling through those forums for research. You could have asked me if you wanted to know something about my world or the other realms.” My breath hitches in my throat, and I look at him agape, crossing my hands behind my neck. “What?” I whisper, watching him take a step closer. “I know that I have been an asshole. But I would have wanted to be the one to teach you all those things. I’m really sorry, Theodore. I have been an idiot. I was so scared about the crown, and I spent so long ru

    Theodore“Oh, my god,” I whisper under my breath. “What happened?”The doctor shrugs, her eyes sparkling. “I don’t say that lightly. But it was a miracle. During the night, we had to take the tubes out because you started breathing on your own. We did another screening because the machines showed that you were responding to different impulses. And as the results came back, we were shocked. Your blood levels were extraordinary, and after running more tests, we couldn’t find the congenital heart defect you had since birth, which was diagnosed a few months ago. It was gone.”“Gone?” I ask, staring at her agape. “How? Was there a mistake?”She shakes her head. “That was our first thought, too.

    TheodoreA faint rustle wakes me up, my eyes burning as I force them open.“That’s too bright,” I rasp out, my words turning into a coughing fit.A nurse hurries to stand next to my bed, filling a glass with water. I take it with shaky hands, fearing I will spill everything. “Slowly, don’t worry about spilling a bit.”She helps me drink by supporting the glass just enough to make me feel like I’m doing it on my own. “Aah,” I breathe out, my throat feeling as if I had been eating sand. “Thank you.”She puts down the glass, passing her palms over her scrubs, and I clear my throat. “Are you an angel? Am I dead?”

    Nathanael400 years ago Ugh, I’m full. I think I need to throw up. Observing Fyodor checking his bandages like a curious child without a care in the world, I can’t stop asking myself what is wrong with me. “Are you feeling alright?” “Yeah, I guess so.” He moves his gaze to me, setting down his foot with a smile. “Thank you. I guess you saved me?” I close my eyes with a sigh, shrugging. “Well, I couldn’t leave you behind without getting you jailed for doing a massacre, so… What were you doing there, by the way?” He shifts in his seat, tilting his head. “I was trying to run away.” “Run away? From what?” Chuckling shyly, he shakes his head, and strangely, a burning sensation explodes in my chest. “There was an execution starting on the main square. I panicked and fled into an alley. I didn’t want to see someone else die. Yesterday was enough for me.” He averts his gaze shortly before looking back at me. “That must be sounding stupid, I know.” “It doesn’t sound stupid. It IS stu

    Nathanael400 years ago “Are you serious?”"Isn't the Prince exaggerating?" “Psst, are you crazy?! Do you want to burn as well?” “Well, you missed the execution yesterday. Have you ever watched children being burnt at the stake, Karl? I don’t think so. Or you wouldn’t tell anyone to fucking shut up.” “Fyodor!” The hissing of one of the men causes the entire discussion to slow down, the tones turning quieter. I take a sip of my beer, forcing myself not to distort my face in disgust. The beginning of something ugly is clearly floating in the air, and it creates so much tension triggered by fear that it even makes me want to go back to the palace. “They even executed a priest,” another says, in a whispered tone that I wouldn’t get if it wasn’t for my enhanced hearing ability. “This is madness.” I lift my glass towards the innkeeper, who is glancing their way with a suspecting expression. “Can I get another one?” He nods, his annoyance about me interrupting him eavesdropping cl

    Nathanael“This way,” Gilda pushes out, her heels clicking on the floor.We are running to reach the ICU, and I die inside with every slow-ass step I have to take to mask my inhuman speed.Alpha Hunter skyrockets out of his seat as soon as we turn the corner, his hair disheveled at how many times he must have passed his hands through it.“They won’t let me in. They don’t give me any information because I’m not family,” he announces exasperated, and I push past him.“Let me take care of it,” I growl, reaching a nurse standing behind a reception desk.She lifts her hands, her empathy heavy in her voice. &ldq

    Theodore My heart is already beating into my throat as I step onto the floor where I ended up just a few days ago as I had to stutter out my apology. I feel like shaking up, going crazy as I can nearly smell his cologne. I’m a goner. Gilda is not sitting at her desk, and Helga stops in front of it,

    Theodore I take a deep breath, letting my hands slide over my face as I push it back out. My heart is about to shatter and its shards to explode out of my chest at how hard it beats. The display keeps flashing up, and the ringtone I had selected especially for my mother dances through the room.

    Theodore I think I’m going insane. “Are you listening to me, Theo?” My mother’s shrill voice risks bursting my ear drum as I rip out the drawers annoyed. “Yeah, yeah,” I mutter absentmindedly as I search through the cupboards. I make a mess, not caring about my mother screaming at me at the othe

    Theodore I stretch myself with a groan after I have been sitting at my desk for hours. First, I was annoyed and bored, but strangely, I didn’t even notice how the time passed as I was deep in thought. Soon enough, my eyes were glued to the screens showing the gamers doing their thing, and my tho
