Chapter 63
YN
I had barely left my neighbourhood when my phone started buzzing.
"Your Highness." I said, cautiously.
Wow. Okay. Today seems to be a very buzzing day for me. Who is calling now? I thought as I raised my hips to pull my Wow. Okay. Today seems to be a very buzzing day for phone out from my pocket. Checking the caller ID, shock hit me to find Prince Miro calling. "Where are you?"
I froze, not liking his tone. It sounded urgent, and angry and I wondered what I did to deserve it.
"Answer me." Miro pressed and that made me know something was definitely wrong.
"I'm in a cab, my Prince. What's going on?"

Wherever
it is you're going, I want you to turn the fuck around and come straight to my base. Understood?"
I asked but by then Prince Miro had ended the call.
stared at my phone in wonder. Is this about Prince Theon and the Moonstone? Did his injury get worse?
kept on pondering until I was driven through the gates of the Windermere Estate. As soon as I alighted, I looked up at the five story building and felt an unpleasant shiver run down my spine. What could possibly be awaiting me in this house?
As if to answer my question, the Moonstone got warmer meaning that something was definitely up with Prince Theon. With no time to waste, two security men escorted me up the elevators to the penthouse, and the moment they led me to the door, and I went in, they closed it behind me. t started

I racing a little faster. What in the gods' names was going on?
I ventured further into the living room, partly made of glass walls that overlooked the glistening city line beyond. The atmosphere was still and quiet, softly interrupted by the sparks in the fireplace. "There you are," Miro said and immediately, I raised my head up to find him glaring down at me from the upstairs banister. "My Prince," I bowed. "I bowed
"Come upstairs." He said and walked off.
Still bothered, I quickly ascended the royal staircase and was able to catch up with Miro as he turned a corner.
"May I know what's going on?" I asked, as I followed behind, trying to gauge his demeanor from his side profile. Miro reached a door and turned to me with a frown. "You're about to find out."
He turned the knob and opened the door for me to go in and I hesitated the moment I saw it going to do?" I asked. was a bedroom. "What are you
Miro raised a questioning brow. "Relax." He said. "I'm not that kind of guy." Then he opened the door wider as he went in first and that's when I saw Healer Kwan and two nurses standing around a bed.
I entered fully and, to my horror; I found Prince Theon, unconscious, in bed with a cold towel on his forehead. He looked pale white and his lips had started losing their color.
"Ahhh. You're here." Healer Kwan said in an urgent, worried manner.
I looked from Prince Theon's pale face to the Healer. What's happening?"
He stared at the Moonstone around my neck. "That's what's happening." He said and when I frowned at him in confusion, he continued. "Let me explain. Simply, put, His Highness got hurt on the field but he's not healing as fast as we thought he would because, well, he's sharing his life force with you and now he's dying."
"Not only that," Miro said, with his arms folded across his chest. My father and the Director will be here in the next hour. If they find him sick and not healing, you know what that means for you."
I swallowed, my cheeks flaming in shame. If anything happens to Prince Theon, it's going to be my fault. The air suddenly became too heavy as I felt the weight of everyone staring at me. Okay. What can I do to help?" I asked. "Do you want me to remove it?" I moved to unlock the Moonstone.
"No!! Stop!" The Healer said in alarm. "We have a different solution in mind."
I looked from him to Miro and back. "What kind of solution?"

"Hey, you." Miro signalled to the two nurses in the room. "Out."
Startled, the ladies packed their things and hurried out of the room, leaving us three, well four if I include Theon who was unconscious at the moment.
The Healer turned to me but he looked pretty nervous to talk to me. "W-Well t-the t-thing issss-" said what?"
"You have to strip off your clothes and sleep with my brother." Miro said and I turned to him, mortified.

"You heard me." He glowered. "My brother's not healing because he's far from you. Spending time with him, skin to skin will help him heal quickly." "Yes." Miro answered.
I closed my eyes and released a deep breath. "Okay." I nodded. "I'll do it."
"You never had a choice before." Miro answered and if I weren't so worried about Theon, I'd have rolled my eyes just to p***him off. Silence settled upon us as the men stared at me. "Well, this is not a show." I said, as I sat on the bed and began to work off my shoes. "Oh y-yes. Right." Healer Kwan said, and walked out of the room, leaving us two.

I worked off my shoes and got up to work on the buckle of my jeans. Then I paused and found Miro still watching me. "Well?" I stared at him.
Miro slowly closed the distance between us and with each step, the gaze of his eyes got more murderous.I raised my chin to match his gaze. "My brother better survive this," He threatened. Or else..."
That

unpleasant shiver went down my spine again as I stared up at him and swallowed.
"If you need anything, I'm right outside." He said, and then he left the room and and left me breathless and shaky.
Immediately, I stripped down to my pant and bra and got under the covers with Theon. When I raised the blanket, I found Chapter 02
him in just his shorts and his entire stomach wrapped in a bandage.
I did this. This is all my fault.
My throat constricted with tears, but I willed my emotions away This is not about me. This is about saving Prince Theon's
life.
I scooted closer and touched his arm and I didn't like that he was getting cold to the touch. So I tried to raise his arm to put it around me and to my surprise, I discovered he was really heavy. So with great difficulty, I managed to get his arm around me before laying my head on his chest and my arm across his body. For someone so massive, there was little my body could cover so I hoped the skin to skin was enough to heal him.
As I laid there, listening to the steady thump of his heartbeat, I thought about my life and how I may have to forfeit the strength training test in order not to put Prince Theon in any more risk. As different thoughts went through my mind, my eyelids gradually felt heavy and the last thing I remember was thinking Theon's body was getting a bit warmer,

nibbled softly on the spot between my neck and my shoulders, before moving to my lips. All it took was a nudge, and I was letting him in. I spread my legs wider, pressing my body against him as we kissed deeper and when I felt his strong erect c***k brush against my kitty, I inhaled sharply, opening my eyes. My heart hammered faster when I realized what was happening.
Oh no! We are going too far!
"Relax." Came Prince Theon's voice as he kissed my jawline but his voice did not sound human anymore. "I won't make love to you yet, Bunny." He moved down to my neck. "I can smell your innocence." He said, and when his face came within my line of vision, goosebumps broke out of my skin. His eyes were pitch black, showing no irises whatsover. His lips curled in a sinister yet heart stoppi
