Chapter 102: Boyfriend

*Ciana*

I couldn’t believe I dozed off!

Theo said they would be leaving in two hours-were they already gone?

I ran to check on Warren. He wasn’t in his room. For a mo- ment, my heart sank to the bottom and I thought they chose to leave without me.

Thank Goddess, when I got to the foyer, Jake and a cou- ple of guys were getting Warren loaded into a van. He was strapped on a gurney, still unconscious.

Aurora was there, saying goodbye to Warren. Her eyes were glassy with tears.

I walked over and was about to ask Aurora whether she would like to come with us to the palace, when I realized that Theo actually hadn’t extended the invitation for me to go with him.

I watched Theo and Jake getting prepared to set off, and couldn’t help but decide to find out what was their plan.

“Do you have a plan on what to do now?” I asked, walking up beside Theo.

His face was drawn and distant again. The past 12 hours seemed extremely long, and he’d been so obviously upset and emotional at what happened to Warren and what he was ca-

pable of.

For a few moments, he’d even let me see that vulnerabili-

Now, he was the same old aloof Theo again.

“Yes, to a degree. We’ve made some arrangements in the palace,” Theo said.

“Okay,” I said softly, looking at the ground.

Theo’s ‘we’ only included himself and Jake, obviously. It didn’t sound like I was being included to return to the palace.

I couldn’t assume that I’d be welcome to accompany them without an invitation, as the royal palace wasn’t my backyard. Now that I’d technically “dropped out” of the running for Theo’s potential bride, there was no reason someone like me would have to go to the castle.

The palace wasn’t exactly open for anyone to come and go as they please.

But I wanted to. My heart ached with the desire to stay with Theo and to see Warren recover.

Theo wasn’t inviting me, so I wasn’t sure if he’d be recep- tive to me asking to tag along, because I might end up being more of a burden to him. He had a lot going on in his head with what he’d been through recently.

Then there was the promise I’d made to Lady Nita. I’d told her I would stay away from Theo and the palace if she helped him. She’d kept up her end of the deal. I couldn’t go back on mine.

Besides, and most importantly, I’d kissed Theo last night and he’d… he hadn’t mentioned anything about it.

At this point, I could no longer lie to myself.

Yes, I fell for the Dark Prince.

I wanted to be with him and be there for him. I wanted him to know that he wasn’t alone.

But what did he think about me?

Yes, he was protective of me, I knew that, just like he cared about Maggie, Warren, and even Jake. But was there anything more than that?

“Ciana, you in there?” Jake asked, waving his fingers in front of my face.

“Y-yes, what?” I asked, snapping out of my trance.

“I’ve been calling you. You must have been thinking pretty deeply.”

“Oh, yeah… I just hope Warren gets the help he needs,” I forced a smile on my face and played it off like it wasn’t a big deal that they were leaving without me.
