Chapter 99 For a mumem , Icouldnt help but stare back into Askhans eyes .
Then suddenly he was being shot at , blood spurting out with a painful thud .
My band trembled as I touched my cheek , feeling the warmth of his blood as it had splashed my face .
as he hit the floor Thea .
A small gasp left my lips as I focused hark on Askhan .
He hail a look of concern in his eyes as he continued to watch me , Is everything okay ? He asked , brows furrowed in concern .
I nodded my head , trying to force a smile onto my Eace .
I had no idea where that had come from but it didnt make me feel any less overwhelmed .
Something was wrong , and I could feel it in my gut .
Die My body acted before 1 realized it .
I pulled Askhan behind me just as a gunshot rang through the room .
The whole place fell into chaos as everybody ran for their lives .
The Gamma warriors immediately went into protective mode , trying to maintain order while simultaneously guarding the prince .
Stay close .
Thea .
Haelor said , taking a spot close to me .
Quentin did the same and with that , I had three men surrounding me in a protective circle .
I opened my mouth to tell them I was fine but pain shot through my arms before I could even muster the strength to talk , The last thing I remembered before blacking out was Harlor yelling out my name as I fell to the ground .
Pushing my eyes open took more strength than I realized .
A small groan left my lips as I tried to sit up .
Hey , hey .
Askhan gently guided me .
Relax okay .
I looked around , noting Quentin , Haelor and Olavir who were carefully watching me .
With a bit more effort , I managed to sit up , leaning my hack against the pillow Are you okay ? Olavir asked , How do you feel now ? Its just my arm that hurts .
I winced when I tried to move my hand .
I should be fine soon enough .
There was a look of desperation in Olavirs eyes as he watched me .
I wondered if the rest of my brothers had gotten wind of this .
I was with the three men back then at party .
They still didnt know I could turn into my wolf .
Well , Askhan knew at least .
I had to keep up the act I groaned again , this time louder than before .
Quentins eyes squinted in my direction for a moment .
There was a knowing look in his eyes , and that did little to ease my nerves .
Shit .
He must have realized it already .
1 glared at him in anger before turning back to Haelor .
He looked caught up in his self loathing and didnt seem to have realized anything just yet .
I should have protected you even more .
He sighed .
When his eyes raised up to meet mine , I noted the pitiful look laced behind them .
If youll allow me , Id like to take care of you , Thea .
At the very least , before I leave for the border .
Like hell Id let that happen .
We all turned to look at Askhan who had a look of displeasure on his face .
He sent Haelor a withering glare before turning back to me .

Haelors eyes narrowed on the prince , One of Askhans eyes twitched .
Oh yeah ? Quentin who had silently been watching their argument finally cleared his throat after a moment .
He fixed them a pointed look before turning Theas already awake .
Its not like shes unconscious as we speak .
Why not ask for her own opinion ? Isnt that right , fragile princess ? Quentin was calm but I could pick out the hint of sarcasm laced in them .
I made a point of ignoring it and focused on the words hed said .
Regardless of whether he had been sarcastic or not , I liked the fact that he had expressed his respect for me .
I turned to Clavir .
I want to go back home.
A small smile crept over his lips at my words .
Askhan immediately turned to Olavir , a frantic look in his eyes as he shook his head .
You have to see reason to what Im saying , Olavir .
Askhan piped up .
Thea got hurt trying to save my life .
If anything .
I have a moral obligation to keep her protected , and the best place to do that would be the palace I believe shes made her choice already .
Quentin snapped at him in a cold tone .
Askhans eyes darkened as he stared down Quentin .
They both stare at each other for what felt like eternity .
