Theodore

The soft voices coming from the TV invade my consciousness, and I open my eyes slowly, blinking repeatedly, but they are still too feeble for me to understand what they are saying.

Did he turn the volume down?

I push myself up with a groan, stretching my neck while I drive my hand through my hair.

Looking around, I pout automatically as I don’t find Helades in.

But I must really have watched the movie too many times for me to expect him to still be here when I wake up.

    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 “What took you so long?” Helades asks, and I let myself fall into the chair in front of his desk. “Dunno, mate. Traffic?” I grin smugly, even if I could eat a fucking horse. And I just hope that my stomach won’t rumble while I am in his office. Maybe I should get myself an online subsc

    Theodore My heart skips a beat as I find him standing in front of the large set of windows. The blends are fully open for the first time, enabling me to see the city lights and the skyline. I stare in awe as I fight myself to tear my eyes from him, keeping my urge down to ogling him as he is sta

    Nathanael He is everywhere. My mind is filled with him constantly. So much that it is getting alarming. And my brain really would need a break. How is he even surviving like that? I clear my throat as I approach his apartment door. As soon as I am in a certain proximity, his thoughts
