Chapter 99: This Fucking Power
I stared at Warren as he held the knife to his throat. His words ached my heart.
“You shouldn’t think so low of yourself,” I softened my tune and wished he could see that I wasn’t trying to be his en-
I took a step toward him tentatively, ensuring that he wouldn’t do anything to harm himself immediately, and then moved close enough to get to his right hand which was holding the knife.
My hands gently wrapped around his and slowly moved it away from his neck.”You have a lot to live for. Also Warren, I’m not worth ending your life over.”
Warren’s face fell. He lowered his gaze and his hand loosened so the knife dropped on the hard floor, making a clanging sound.
I gave a brief sigh of relief.
Grief and sorrow could cause erratic behavior, but if he could just get past the worst of it, he would be able to find the meaning of life again and start to appreciate it.
“You still have people that care about you, Aurora, for example. Does she not matter to you? Even if right now it’s hard to see beyond the gloomy days, you have to live on for your sister and your mother. Let alone one day, you’ Il find your mate, too.”
Warren glared at the floor and shook his head. “You know nothing!”
“We’re leaving,” Theo urged.
I glanced at him and nodded my head.
Leaving was the right thing to do. If Warren was going to make good on his threat to end his life, he’d do it with or without me there, but I had faith in him that he wouldn’t.
I had faith that he was strong enough to pull through this, and that he just needed some time alone.
So leaving was the best choice before things got too escalated. However, Warren bounced up and charged toward Theo.
‘Enough, Warren!” Theo hissed.
“I’m going to avenge Maggie! I owe her that. I challenge you, Theodore Crimson, to a duel,” Warren declared, pointing at his own chest.
“l decline,” Theo said flatly, tugging me again toward the door.
“You cannot decline! You will disgrace the Moon Goddess and King Lycaon if you do. Do you think that is what Father will want to hear, a royal prince not accepting a duel?”
‘Il-don’t care what Father has to say and the Goddess will forgive me.”
I was relieved that Theo wasn’t going to fight him.
“Why, are you afraid?” Warren continued to provoke.
Theo shook his head. “Whatever you say.”
“Asshole!”

“Warren, calm down! Even if Theo accepts it, do you really think you could win?”
“Of course not,” Warren smiled wryly, “But this isn’t about winning. Can’t you see, Ciana, you’re right that I have something to live for, and that is to prove I am worthy of Maggie, as her brother, and as a warrior!”
‘You’re not a warrior right now, Warren, and I’m not fighting you. It won’t disrespect anyone for me to deny a challenge from my grief fueled brother,” Theo stated, glanced at me, and turned around. “We’re leaving.’
This time, I didn’t hesitate. He was right, the sooner we got out of here, the better for all of us.
I hurried my pace beside him and didn’t even bother to ask where he was taking me. The truth was, even though I didn’t know what I felt for him, I was .happy to be with him.
“GET BACK HERE!” Warren roared behind us.
He ran out of the room, closing the space between us in a few long strides. His nostrils flared as he heaved and panted, approaching us with malice.
“You can’t run away from this Theo! You can’t bury it! You killed Maggie. She just wanted to help you and you killed her!” Warren shouted.
Theo quickly turned to Warren and tucked me behind him, protectively.

“How could you be so cold-hearted? How could you stoop so low? How could you let yourself do that?” Warren scolded. “I’m sorry Warren, I didn’t mean to kill her!” Theo growled. “For you, it’s just three words, but for her, it’s her life!”
“Warren. Whatever happened already happened. You and I can settle this in the future. I’m only here today for Ciana.”
“What makes you think you’re the one who decides when and where things happen? Just because you’re more power-
Theo’s lips were pressed into a thin line.

so firm and solid. Warren roared, “What fucking makes you think you’re the one who controls others’ lives?!” “No, I’ve never ever thought that in my life! I tried every fucking thing I could to control my damn power, but I can’t!” Warren’s anger broke for a moment, and he took a halfStep back. “pts 99 This rucking Pmv« was stunned at the news as well. What was he talking bout? His power? The power he needed the dreamberries Or? What kind of power was it? “What… did you say?” Warren murmured. “Do you think I want this fucking power? Do you think I Jet a say on when and where it fucking chooses to act out?” theo growled, shaking his head. Warren

“I’d… I’d rather drag my ass to bloody hell a million times :han do what I did to Maggie!’
I tried to digest what Theo said, I still had doubts but one :hing for sure, was that he didn’t hurt Maggie on purpose. Hearing him say it with such raw emotion confirmed the truth for me.
I hoped that it would help Warren see that he wasn’t the only one hurt by Maggie’s death, Theo wasn’t the monster he thought he was, but most importantly, let go of his hatred.
“Call me all the names you need, brother. I’ve called myself worse, and I deserve worse. I know that,” Theo said, his voice sharp. “Believe it or not, I’m very sorry for Maggie.”
I peeked over his shoulder at Warren, hoping he would back down now, but unfortunately, Warren snarled instead.
“Don’t say her name! You don’t deserve that! You don’t deserve to feel sorry for yourself! Now, fight me!”
He lunged at Theo.
Thu• ‘Voucher: Instantly, Theo pushed me out of the way and spun around, dodging Warren’s attack.
I fell on the ground. Quickly, I rolled over and sat up to see what was going on.
Warren gnashed his teeth. He spun around and tried to punch Theo in the face. Theo blocked the punch and Warren lifted a knee into Theo’s stomach.
Theo grunted and stepped back, but he didn’t seem too thrown off by the blow.
“It doesn’t matter how it happened, Theo, you don’t have the right to mourn Maggie!”
Watren lunged forward, tackling Theo. They tumble around on the ground.
I couldn’t see what was going on or if either of them were injured. They rolled so fast and I could hardly tell whose limbs were whose.
“Fighting me won’t make her care for you any more,” Theo snarled. He pinned Warren’s arms behind his back and stood up, forcing Warren to stand with him. I noticed that Theo was wearing his gloves. He must have put them on at some point after he arrived.
“Sparing me won’t make her love you,” Warren shot back.
He twisted away from Theo and punched Theo in the face. Theo reeled back.
I thought Warren was referring to Maggie, but then I realized he was talking about me.

out of this!” He growled, his eyes lighting up
