Chapter 97

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 blinked and looked down at his half-eaten meal. "I don't know. I think it's the Moonstone messing with my feelings. You're the one with the ladies, so I need you to give me a straight answer before I leave chasing after her." I looked at my brother and remembered my resolve to look after him. "No. You weren't too harsh. If anything, you were really nice, firm but nice." "Thanks." He nodded once and went back to his business. Then I decided this was the best time to discuss my issues with

him.

"Can we talk?"

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?"

"Because I need to fight someone..." I said, measuring his reaction, "...someone you've fought before."

"Who?"

"Olive Verena." Olive

Theon's eyes hardened. "Dad is putting you up to this, isn't he?"

"Theon, please, don't start again." I rose to my feet, taking my used plate to the sink. "I am an adult and I know what I am doing. Will you help me or not?"

"NO

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