Theon opened his mouth to argue but barely managed to say a no when a noise from the next room cut him off, followed by Zayne’s frantic voice. He instantly jumped up and hurried over.

“What’s going on?” The moment he stepped in, he saw Nyx curled up in bed, eyes shut, while Zayne was digging through their medical supplies to carefully run some checkups on her.

“Nykie took a fall. She said she suddenly felt really dizzy,” Zayne explained, his tone full of concern.

Zayne nodded and replied, “Nykie doesn’t have mental power, and with your high Loss of Control Index, it’s no wonder they pulled you from the front lines. Felix is just worried about you.”

When a male’s emotions ran high, their Loss of Control Index would go through the roof. On the battlefield, with all the stress and constant violence, military men were among the most prone to losing control. They were just not suited for pairing up with females who lacked mental power.

Theon said nothing but just stayed quiet.
