Chapter 75
RYN
After Miro and Theon left, I went back to my room and tried to get more sleep. Three hours later, I was still tossing and turning, feeling the warmth of the Moonstone around my neck)
Gods! “I hate this!” I whispered out loud. Sitting up in bed. I noticed a slight pain in my stomach and wondered if Theon was
home?
Just then, I heard a scream pierce through the night. I stayed still eyes wide, muscles locked, waiting for a repetition and sure enough it came seconds later.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
It sounded like a man.
I rose to my feet and looked out the window. There were guards patrolling the compound below, moving like they didn’t hear a thing. Then I raised my eyes to the woods beyond and saw what I could describe as a window with the lights on. inside.
Was that where the scream came from?
As if to give me answers, the man screamed again but this time, it was abruptly cut short.
My heart began to pound fast.
Who was that? What is going on in that place?
I stood at the window for about half an hour before seeing a figure walk out of the woods. His size and deadly walk was enough to tell me that was Theon.
He said something to some of the men on patrol and they nodded before rushing into the woods.
I became baffled. Was Theon torturing someone? As if hearing my thoughts, Theon raised his head and looked directly at my window and I jumped back in fright.
My mind began to race.
Did he see me? What kind of man is Prince Theon? I knew he was dangerous but hearing it happen was a different ball
game.
Slowly, but with a tremble in my body, I neared the window again and ever so slightly, pulled back the curtains to peek out but Prince Theon was not there. Just when I was wondering if he went back there, a knock sounded on my door.
I jumped in fright, instantly going for my knives.
Suddenly, all the warnings Miro gave me about his brother started to make sense. What if Prince Theon hurts me? Is he capable of doing that?
“Ryn” Theon said on the other side of the door. “Can we talk?”
I closed my eyes and swallowed. Prince Theon needs me to win the bet against his father. So there’s no way he’s going to kill me. Still, holding a knife behind me, I went to the door and opened it slightly. The moment I did that, and saw his murderous gaze, my pussy clenched and 1 suddenly felt like jumping on him instead
“Hi” I said, planting a fake smile, to cover my dirty thoughts.

Chapter 75
Theon looked down at me with vacam ryes, and 1 wondered if he knew what I was thinking.
Third rule of combat, Ryn.” He said, coldly. “Always know your opponents‘ level of weakness in alignment to your level of strength and spreid.”
1 frowned in confusion, wonilering what he was talking about. “What?” I blurted out..
1 swallowed and raised my chin. “Defense generally, as a girl living with a dangerous man.”
Theon’s smile grew and I save those fucking dimples again. My knees grew weak but I kept my spine straight, showing no signs of weakness.
Theon took another step forward. “So you know I’m a dangerous man.” He said, and within a breath, slid my hair behind my ears. My breath hitched, and I gripped ny knife tighter, trying to avoid purring like a fucking cat in heat because damn, that touch felt so good.
“If I’m so dangerous, Theon’s hand slipped behind my neck and up into my scalp making my eyes shutter close. “Why do I feel like you would rather fuck me than stab me?”
Theon suddenly gripped my hair, pulling it back, sending slight spurts of pain shooting up my scalp. I winced, but I leveled my gaze with his. If he’s going to cause me pain, I’ll cause him pain too. A flick of my wrist, and I made a tiny cut on the open flesh of his arm gripping my hair.
We both watched as the cut blossomed with blood that trickled down his arm before the wound healed right before our
eves.
