Chapter 77 THEON
Even before my brother came into the kitchen. Ihad sensed hismming anger down our bond and immediately knew he was on Dad''s diet again. I wondered why Does he enjoy it? Or is Dad''s hold on him so strong that he would do anything to please him! Want a pie?" I asked and he perked up at the idea. Grabbing a te, I cut out a slice for him.
"Make it two" He said, and I did just that. Giving it to him, he wasted no time in grabbing a fork and diving into his meal, eating with the savagery of someone who hadn''t eaten in days. Ryn and I exchanged a nce. I wonder if she knew my brother was on a natural form of steroids and eating a lot was a symptom of it. Finishing her meal, she stood up and went round the counter to the sink to wash her dish.
"You don''t need to. I informed her. The maid will handle that
okay" Ryn said and simply washed her hand. Then she slowed down, drying her hands on a towel as she stared into space. "Uhm, if you have any jobs for me to do in the house, I''d be d to do it just to earn my ce here." Before I fore I could reply, Miro scoffed, grabbing a paper towel to dab his lips. "You think you can earn your ce here?" He asked, with a raised bow, dumping his used towel on his empty te. "How about you start by telling us why my father hates you so much?" Hilinked in
I in confusion at Miro before looking at Ryn. She seemed just as confused and I could feel her apprehension and nervousness as her lips parted to form words but never quite speaking. "What''s this about!" I mindlinked my brother.
"Your pet obviously." He replied.
Watch your tone. I warned, sending him a re. "You will not disrespect us."
"U" My brother''s brow arched. "Wow, so you both are an item now? Tell me, did you get a chance to f****k her while I wasn''t around!"N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose. "Ryn?" I called.
"Yes, my Prince."
"Wait for me downstairs. I''ll join you shortly."
Ryn hesitated before bowing, grabbing her bag and exiting the kitchen. Once she left, I turned to Miro. "You want to repeat
that?
My brother leaned back in his chair and studied me. "I''m not in any mood to fight right now."
"There won''t be a fight." I remarked, removing the apron I was wearing. "What there will be is a beat-down as usual if you keep disrespecting me."
Miro scoffed and folded his arms across his chest. "You can hate Dad as much as you like but you can''t deny that you are just, like him
I realized he was trying to change the subject. "I am not denying anything" I said, shoving my hands in my pockets. "I do the things I do deliberately because I don''t want to end up like him,
Miro removed his sses and that''s when I saw how f****ng dted his pupils were. Gods. My brother is so high on this diet.

Miro breathed out augh. "Same reason you''re under the influener of the Moonstone and you are so not my brother right "I already told you why Lam doing this."
Yeah Yeah. To get us to entancipate from Dad. I get it."
at him, feeling a mixture of confusion and anger. "You sound like this is not what you want."
I looked at
Mire poured himself a ss of orange juice and sipped out of it You never ask me what I want. You just expect me to follow
My heart squeered but I ground my jaw, showing no emotion, willing myself to feel nothing. "Okay, what is it you want? Dad''s approval?"
Miro shook his head. "You wouldn''t understand."
his "THE
Then make me. Brother." I said, my voice rising an octave. "All these years, I don''t understand you. You suffer a lot at his hands and, and I have been trying to save you from him yet you want him to like you." "Maybe on I don''t want to be saved" Miro retorted and the pain in my heart grew stronger. "You don''t mean that."
"But I do." Miro said. "Every time youe to my rescue, you make me weak. Dad respects you more and hates me deeper."
"That''s not true. I shook my head. "And that''s" I paused and swallowed. That''s unfair."
Miro looked at me and then looked away. "I have to do something for Dad. This is myst shot at my redemption with him. I can''t. I can''t afford to mess up and if you see me drowning, don''t save me."
I looked at him in disbelief. "What happened to our promise to Mom? Are we no longer brothers first before we are his son?"
Miro sighed. "That''s the thing. I never got a chance to be his son, I never experienced him like you did. So why don''t you focus on your girl and let me be."

Miro downed his cup of orange juice and looked at me. "Don''t you think Ryn is hiding something from us?" He asked. "I mean, look at things from a new perspective. She got rejected by her own Alpha and pack. Her principal hated her. Now our Dad and I discovered something yesterday." "What?" I asked, stepping forward.
Miro observed me for a moment with new eyes. "Gods, you''re such a s***ker for her."
"Ro, focus!" I snapped my fingers. "What did you discover!"
"Fine, Romeo." Miro folded his arms across his chest again. "I met Dad''s inner circle yesterday and I learnt they don''t like her at all. They have something nned for her, T. Something she can''t escape.
