Chapter 305: Flashback - 45
Theron’s POV
Last night, when Silas was standing near the window and Damon and Kael were in front of him while touching him, I could see the fear in his eyes. He was literally shaking. I think he had trauma from the things that had happened to him with those Alphas. That accident had left him traumatized.
I wanted to say something at that moment. But before I could, I think Damon had understood, and that’s why he stepped aside and let him go to his bed. And as he came, he hid under the quilt. That’s when I realized that, yes, we are not doing anything by touching him. We are just triggering his trauma. Because what he had suffered, we can’t even imagine.
Even if he had killed those hundred Alphas, before killing them, what they had done to him, how he had felt at that moment—we don’t know. When he hid under the quilt, we didn’t say a word. We all were just sitting on the bed.
But after a while, he started to scream. He started to beg in his sleep.
"Please let me go. Please don’t do this to me."
When his cries, his begging, were falling on my ears, I was feeling very sad. That’s why I got up from my bed and lay down beside him. But just then, he woke up. While screaming, he must have seen something that startled him.
But when he woke up, I had a fear that now he would again feel uncomfortable, feel scared of us. But when he threw himself into my arms, I was really relieved. That’s why I even released soothing pheromones for him at that moment to calm him down. And he fell asleep in my arms. And when I saw that, I felt a sense of relief. They all wanted to comfort him too. That’s why we lay down around him. Because the bed was so small. Still, we were curled up.
But I guess there is no need to tell Silas about this. Because he seems fine now. And I don’t want to ruin his mood.
In the meantime, breakfast was served in front of us, and we all ate it. But I had other worries too, like—he didn’t go back last night to the palace. His father must have been worried about him to death. And I think his brother also didn’t go back—or went, I don’t know. But when we go back, I’m sure his father is gonna scold us.
"What are you thinking, Theron?" Silas asked, and my eyes quickly looked up at him while eating. His beautiful face was literally sparkling, and I just smiled at him. Since childhood, I don’t know how to start conversations or how to reply. Like, if someone asked me anything, I would just give them a reply, but I don’t know much about these things. I don’t know how to socialize with someone.
And especially with an Omega. I never had Omega friends in my whole life. I only hung out with my brothers. So I don’t know much about Omegas. Silas is the first one I have hugged, who I had my dance with, and who is the one I’m dating.
