Chapter 97 MIRO

After Ryn left, Theon came back to his seat in the kitchen and went back to typing out emails. I, on the other hand, scanned my calendar for upcoming business meetings and events. Suddenly, Theon raised his head. "Was I too harsh on her?"

My eyes slowly trailed from my phone to his face. His expression was unreadable as usual but from the keen way he looked at me for answers, I could tell he really cared. "Why do you care?"

Theon raised his eyes to me before setting his phone face down on the kitchen counter. "I'm listening."

Glad to have his attention, I went straight to the point. "I want us training again just like old times." He arched his brow. "Why?"

"NO

I turned around to look at him. "Why?"

Because he's too dangerous.

"I'm done." He said, shaking his head. "I am done trying to make you see that you don't need him or his love. I thought becoming self made, building our own empire and trying to usurp him would be enough but now I see it would never be enough for you." Silence settled upon us, and the back of my eyes began to burn.
