Chapter 92: Betrayal of Blood
Demarco stepped out of the shadows with a somber look on his face.
Demarco, what are you doing?!” Warren shouted. He was beyond baffled.
“I’ m sorry.” Demarco stared at Tallis and Warren in the cage, looking pained and conflicted.
“Why?” asked. The anger and confusion in my voice could not be hidden.
This was not at all how I envisioned the rest of the night going. I got up from the ground to face Demarco.
Let them out! You are supposed to be our friend and Warren is your family!”
Theo, on the other hand, remained silent and composed. His gaze fell on me, and he instructed, “Ciana, get out of here. Now.’
How could I run away without at least getting some clarification of the situation?
“Forgive me,” Demarco shook his head. “l had no choice.” “What do you mean?” I asked.
Demarco shook his head. “She is dying. The only woman I have ever loved is dying and not one healer is capable of curing her. I can’t watch her get weaker by the day. She is my mate, my entire world… I can’t lose her!”
“We can help too, Demarco.” I tried to reason with him.
“There are royal healers—”
Theo’s voice echoed again, a bit harsh this time. “Ciana, get out of here!”
I looked around and realized that we were surrounded by Demarco’s warriors, and the rest of the cast members were blocked just beyond the stage area.
Crap! Theo was right, I needed to get out of there.
I started to move toward the woods, trying to draw as little attention as I could while Demarco looked at me sadly and sighed,’ “l’ ve tried everything. Like I said, I have no other choice.”
“So what are you going to do with us?” Theo finally spoke to Demarco. I knew he was trying to distract Demarco and buy time for me. “Unless we possess some incredible healing abilities that we don’t know about.’
“Ha ha ha, you don’t have incredible healing abilities.” A familiar laugh pierced through my ear and my heart sank. “But Alpha Demarco is willing to exchange your life for his wife’s well-being!’
Luther walked out of the shadows. His whole body was clad in black. Had he been there watching the whole time?
Without even thinking it through I bolted away from the men, but it was too late. Large arms circled my waist and tWisted my arms behind my back.
“Let me go!” I demanded, fighting against whoever was holding me.
‘Shhh… be good.” Luther smiled, and his tune was almost gentle and doting, yet that made every single hair on my body stand up.
“l thought you would be happy to see me.” I could hear the amusement in Luther’s voice. “Bring her back to me.’
The man who subdued me walked me to where Luther stood.

Hello princess, I missed you so.” He stepped toward me and brushed his finger against my cheek. He had a triumphant glint in his eyes.

Don’t touch her!” Theo’s voice roared and he shook the cage.
Luther let out a little chuckle and then turned to him. Prince Theo, how nice to see you again. It’s not often to see you lose your temper. Either I’m special to you…” Luther lifted my chin and leaned forward. His face was only inches away from mine. or she is.”

“l will spill your blood on this floor if you touch her again!” Luther laughed at his remark.
“Why did he call you Theo?” Warren looked at Theo. His eyebiows furrowed in confusion as he examined Theo’s face. I watched as realization dawned on him and then his eyes widened.
“You… You ‘re Theo?!” He looked at his brother. “But how
le e
Of did you…why did you…what the hell?!”
Luther shook his head with a playful smile on his face. “Prince Warren, it seems like your brother doesn’t trust anyone, not even his own siblings!”
Warren’s mouth hung open as he stared at his brother who was glaring at Luther. Luther just looked like he was enjoying it all.
“Here is what’s going to happen. My men are going into the cage to put these chains on your wrists. And you aren’t going to fight them…”
“As soon as this door is opened, I’ll gut you alive, Luther,” Theo stated coldly.
“Your empty threats bore me, Theo. You see, that is why I have my leverage,” Luther chuckled, and pulled me closer to him. I tried to fight back, but he was too strong for me.
“I have your precious Ciana, Theo,” he picked up a strand of my hair and kissed it. “If you are to try anything funny, I can’ t promise I won’t accidentally slice her throat, or… mark her in front of your eyes.”
Theo let out a warning growl, but he didn’t say anything this time.
NOW, none of these things will have to happen if you just obey. The choice is yours.”
‘Don’t listen to him,” I shouted, shaking my head at Theo. His eyes bored into mine as he thought over the request.

he turned his attention

and I assumed that he used mindlink to communicate with his hidden warriors. “Greg and Sherry, ask everyone to back off at least 10 miles.” Theo didn’t have to say it aloud, but he did anyway to show Luther he was cooperative. After a short moment, he looked at Luther. “Done.” If Theo sent his men away, that meant, at this point, we only had the three of us to rely on to-get out of this trap! Luther was pleased with Theo’s

My heart sank to the floor. Theo and Warren were in danger, but there was nothing I could do.
Two of Luther’s men came out of the shadows and entered the cage with chains in their hands. I could tell the pungent smell of the wolfsbane on the silver even from where I stood.
I scrunched up my nose trying to turn away from the poison.
As •soon as the metal touched Theo and Warren, I heard the faint sizzling sound as the wolfsbane burned their skin.
I couldn’t imagine how painful it must be, and my heart ached for both Warren and Theo.
“Ahh!” Warren gasped and sucked in the air and let out a low curse, while Theo only frowned slightly.
My gaze landed on Theo as he lifted his head, I could see a thin sheen of sweat seeping through his forehead. Through his quivering, thick eyelashes, I saw a pair of determined dark eyes. Then he slightly moved his lips.
“Don’t worry,” he said silently.
At that moment, it was like a thousand daggers thrust into my chest and I couldn’t breathe. The flood of my emo tions broke through the barricade holding them back, and tears poured down my cheeks. I frantically shook my head,
Theo snapped his gaze back to Luther. “You’ve been after
me for a while, Luther. Now that you’ve got me, why don’t you let them go?”

Slowly, his handsome face twisted and it turned into a cold sneer. “Who do you think you are?” Luther’s voice was as cold as ice, and his expression turned livid. “A savior? Trying to sacrifice yourself for others? Humor me! You are no one but a mur- “This is between you and me,” Theo reiterated in a leveled tone. All of a sudden, Warren let out loud and boisterous laughs that had all of us turning toward him. ‘Now you care?” He turned to Theo with a disgusted look. ‘Now you want to show some semblance of humanity inside of you? We are literally in this fucking situation because

responded flatly. “My, my, what do we have here? A little brotherly tension?” “Don’t know what I’m talking about?” Warren shouted out aloud, raising his voice at Theo, “When you followed through with Father’s orders, did you question him? When you wiped out
