Chapter 92: Betrayal of Blood

Demarco stepped out of the shadows with a somber look on his face.

Demarco, what are you doing?!” Warren shouted. He was beyond baffled.

“I’ m sorry.” Demarco stared at Tallis and Warren in the cage, looking pained and conflicted.

“Why?” asked. The anger and confusion in my voice could not be hidden.

This was not at all how I envisioned the rest of the night going. I got up from the ground to face Demarco.

Let them out! You are supposed to be our friend and Warren is your family!”

Theo, on the other hand, remained silent and composed. His gaze fell on me, and he instructed, “Ciana, get out of here. Now.’

How could I run away without at least getting some clarification of the situation?

“Forgive me,” Demarco shook his head. “l had no choice.” “What do you mean?” I asked.

Demarco shook his head. “She is dying. The only woman I have ever loved is dying and not one healer is capable of curing her. I can’t watch her get weaker by the day. She is my mate, my entire world… I can’t lose her!”

“We can help too, Demarco.” I tried to reason with him.

“There are royal healers—”

Theo’s voice echoed again, a bit harsh this time. “Ciana, get out of here!”

I looked around and realized that we were surrounded by Demarco’s warriors, and the rest of the cast members were blocked just beyond the stage area.

Crap! Theo was right, I needed to get out of there.

I started to move toward the woods, trying to draw as little attention as I could while Demarco looked at me sadly and sighed,’ “l’ ve tried everything. Like I said, I have no other choice.”

“So what are you going to do with us?” Theo finally spoke to Demarco. I knew he was trying to distract Demarco and buy time for me. “Unless we possess some incredible healing abilities that we don’t know about.’

“Ha ha ha, you don’t have incredible healing abilities.” A familiar laugh pierced through my ear and my heart sank. “But Alpha Demarco is willing to exchange your life for his wife’s well-being!’

Luther walked out of the shadows. His whole body was clad in black. Had he been there watching the whole time?

Without even thinking it through I bolted away from the men, but it was too late. Large arms circled my waist and tWisted my arms behind my back.

“Let me go!” I demanded, fighting against whoever was holding me.

‘Shhh… be good.” Luther smiled, and his tune was almost gentle and doting, yet that made every single hair on my body stand up.

“l thought you would be happy to see me.” I could hear the amusement in Luther’s voice. “Bring her back to me.’

The man who subdued me walked me to where Luther stood.

Hello princess, I missed you so.” He stepped toward me and brushed his finger against my cheek. He had a triumphant glint in his eyes.

Don’t touch her!” Theo’s voice roared and he shook the cage.

Luther let out a little chuckle and then turned to him. Prince Theo, how nice to see you again. It’s not often to see you lose your temper. Either I’m special to you…” Luther lifted my chin and leaned forward. His face was only inches away from mine. or she is.”
