just as we stond wondering if this bounty came from the remaining Elite families, we heard something that seemed like a low rising roar. Miro turned and looked out the window, then he cussed under his breath

Dominic looked out as well and turned to Healer Kwan,

“Well, do you have any secret ways out of this hospital?” He asked calmly,

I looked at Theon, confused. “What’s happening this time?”

He glanced at me, his lips set in a thin line. “Some people saw the bounty”

He didn’t need to finish his statement. I understood perfectly, It’s begun again.

Just like days past when Billie made almost everyone hate me, now the people don’t need anyone to hide behind. For the amount stated in the bounty, people would do anything

My heart began to hammer as I looked at everyone discussing strategies,

These people are about to risk their lives for me. Do I deserve it?

I have been at this war for so long, and many have lost their lives, I don’t think I am worth dying for.

“What’s wrong, Bunny?”

I blinked back the water in my eyes, and readjusted my hold around his neck and shoulders. “Nothing” I whispered. “I just feel this is all my fault?

“It’s not, you know?” Theon replied but how can I tell him that I know the truth? That deep down, I know I should not blame myself but I can’t seem to communicate that to my brain and heart. How can I tell him that I feel responsible for every death that has happened since this nonsensical war began and I feel I deserve to be punished for it?!

“I’m going to stop them.” Miro said, proceeding to leave the room but Dominic grabbed him by the arm to stop him.

“I know you are their King, but no matter how powerful you are, you can’t control all of them. The mental exhaustion could get you killed,”

Miro jerked his arm out of Dominic’s hold. “Why do you care?”

“I don’t.” Dominic straightened. “I care about my cousin though and I know your death will devastate her.”

Miro turned to me and when our eyes met, the anger in his gaze glimmered.

“Fine.” He muttered, “What do we do?”

“You all can follow through the back door but if you have a helicopter, there’s a landing pad on the roof.” Healer Kwan

chimed in.

Dominic pulled his phone out of his pocket. “Helicopter, it is.”

“What about my daughter?”

Chapter 223

We all turned to look at the female nurse who had tried to kill me earlier. She stayed in a corner far away from all of us. The guilt eating me up inside intensified.

Just then, we heard a loud commotion somewhere outside and my heart dropped into my stomach. I even felt Theon’s hand tighten around me.

“The mob are trying to get through security. We need to move.”

“This way.” Healer Kwan said about to lead us out the door.

“WHAT ABOUT MY DAUGHTER?!” The nurse screamed this time and we all turned to look at her.

“We will find your daughter before the appointed time.” I stated but the woman didn’t look convinced.

“What if you don’t?” Her eyes shimmered with tears and my throat constricted.

“I will surrender myself.” I stated. “You have my word.”

Everyone looked at me.

“You will do no such thing!” Miro declared but I stayed silent.

I had no strength to argue. All I knew was that my conscience could not carry the death of a child.

I held on tight to Theon’s neck as he carried me up the elevators to the roof. As soon as the doors opened, we found a huge military helicopter waiting, with several men standing guard with guns in a neat row.
