Warrior 137

Chapter 137

Right from school, Theon had always been the odd one out and when he gets intense about something, others tend to leave him alone which is why the moment he claimed Ryn, the others dispersed and walked away.

Then it was just us, standing amidst others but yet, it felt like we were the only ones in the room. I looked into my brother's eyes and I could see the strain in them.
