Chapter 111: I Won

Ciana gasped and her knees buckled.

I couldn't even bring myself to look at the two and only important women in front of me.

It was as if the world was laughing at my arrogance. I thought

I could win this, but look, what I had done?

Why did the Goddess punish me like this?

Roaring, I ripped my hands away from Ciana and Nita.

Wait, was I already disconnected from them? What the-

"Theo, she's still alive. What are you waiting for? Fight!" Ciana' s urgent voice echoed loudly in the air. I must have gone full- on insane to have this hallucination!

"Theo! Focus!" Ciana's voice shouted again.

As soon as I was dragged back to reality, I felt nudged by a group of... heads.

It was Samson, Linus, and Perceval coming to my aid, and when I looked up, there was Ciana. A lively, energetic Ciana.

She didn't faint nor was she hurt. She was still intact.

She collapsed on the ground only because she went to check on my mother, who lay still beside her.

Ciana checked her pulse and glared at me. She pointed behind me.

"Prince Theo, if Your Highness delays one more second, then all of us will really be dead. Linus bite them!" She pointed at the guards and my lion lunged forward, then she turned to the tiger, "Samson, you come to carry Lady Nite. She is not food, okay?"

I shifted and joined the fight while thousands of thoughts muddled my mind.

How was this even possible? Somehow, Ciana was able to stop me from draining my mother, and herself....She didn't look weak or sick at all.

She'd touched my hands, willingly, and nothing had happened to her.

Goddess, if I had died right at this second, I would've been at peace. However, life just gave me a touch of hope, and I was ready to fight to end this once and for all!

"What's this!? You were able to stop yourself?" Sebastian snarled behind me.

I glanced over at him. How could I forget he was there in all the craziness?

Sebastian grabbed the neck of the guard nearest to him and started sucking the life out of him until the guard groaned and passed out. He moved on to the next, and the next, getting more and more strength from them.

When his loyal guards realized what he was doing, they started backing away. Knees wobbling, they were petrified of
