Theodore

I pull at my tie as I walk into the huge foyer with shiny walls and shiny floors.

Gulping painfully, I increase my pace to reach the long reception. I recognize the snobby woman who also welcomed me to this place for my interview.

“Good morning.” I clear my throat as my gleeful tone gets me a death glare.

I wait a few seconds for her to say something but as she just continues to look at me with an annoyed expression, I decide to dare and speak again. “Theodore… Baxter. I’m the new

  • Suck Me Dry   Hiatus - Update - Note

    Dear Lovelies Thank you for reading and for your patience while waiting for updates. As you know, I have encountered some health issues that I had to tackle down first. I am slowly getting better, but it takes time. Unfortunately, the stress coming with the exams around the corner led to a bit of a setback, and I had to go to the doctor's to change my medication. With new medication, there comes fear and, more importantly, fatigue, which I am trying hard to cope with. At the same time, I had to lower my dosage of Ritalin intake, which doesn't help at all, but is important for my heart. I hope to adjust to it soon, but even my doctors said not to force it, because it will take a few weeks before it will happen naturally. Two years ago, I lost my uncle because of a heart attack; he was just in his early forties. This broke our hearts and ignited a new fear in our family, but maybe it was also what saved my father's and my life. So that's why I am being extra cautious when it comes t

    TheodoreI wake up in the middle of the night, feeling like I’m being watched. The burning sensation of glowing red eyes staring at me through the room must have startled me out of my dreams. Groaning, I fight myself into a sitting position, rubbing my eyes. “Where have you been all this time?” The moonlight is falling onto his legs while his upper body and face remain hidden in the shadows. My twisted brain triggers a shiver to ripple through my body, finding it more alluring than I probably should. My heart beats faster, and I push down my bubbly demeanor as I fear the joy will have my emotions spill over. “Had things to do,” Nathanael responds, his voice deep and cold. “Meeting people. Organizing things. You know…protocol and shit.” I gulp, squirming in my seat while fighting to remain calm, trying to convince myself that I’m just overreacting. But it is difficult to stay cool when I can’t see his expression.Protocol must mean that he is already talking to the palace.Maybe h

    Theodore“Please stop it,” I laugh, but Gilda continues to pull at my pillow, tucking me in. “They are just keeping me here because it is due diligence, not because there is something wrong with me.” The words fail her while she still scurries around me, sniffing as she keeps suppressing her sobs. “I’m an immortal now,” I state, finally getting her to stop and look at me. She tears up when I point towards my mark peaking from under my collar. “I have a mark now. You don’t have to worry about me.” I grin at her proudly, and she shakes her head, raising her gaze to the ceiling. “I was so scared.” “I appreciate your worrying about me, but you don’t have to be scared anymore. It’s alright now. I’m doing great.” “You will be an old man soon, too,” she wails theatrically, making me crack up. “Just like you guys. This is going to be fun.” I snuggle deeper in my hospital bed, smiling at her. She sniffs a few more times, letting herself fall into the armchair next to my bed. “Who knows

    Theodore“It’s a royal mark.” My heart beats into my throat as I turn around to face Helades standing in the door frame. “They are larger than the usual mark you might have read about. Sorry, I wasn’t able to warn you about that.” I stare at him agape until my brain starts functioning again, making me blink. “Sorry, I must have hallucinated for a second. What?” “A royal mark,” he explains, lifting his finger to point at it. “It is usually bigger than the normal mate marks. Gilda told me about you scrolling through those forums for research. You could have asked me if you wanted to know something about my world or the other realms.” My breath hitches in my throat, and I look at him agape, crossing my hands behind my neck. “What?” I whisper, watching him take a step closer. “I know that I have been an asshole. But I would have wanted to be the one to teach you all those things. I’m really sorry, Theodore. I have been an idiot. I was so scared about the crown, and I spent so long run

    Theodore“Oh, my god,” I whisper under my breath. “What happened?”The doctor shrugs, her eyes sparkling. “I don’t say that lightly. But it was a miracle. During the night, we had to take the tubes out because you started breathing on your own. We did another screening because the machines showed that you were responding to different impulses. And as the results came back, we were shocked. Your blood levels were extraordinary, and after running more tests, we couldn’t find the congenital heart defect you had since birth, which was diagnosed a few months ago. It was gone.”“Gone?” I ask, staring at her agape. “How? Was there a mistake?”She shakes her head. “That was our first thought, too.

    TheodoreI’m about to drift off into the land of dreams when I hear the door open and close with a bang, jerking me out of my half-sleepy state. The beloved? I turn my head to the door, waiting for the heels clicking on the shiny floors to reach me. My skyrocketing heartbeat calms down immediately

    Theodore “Hey there,” my lips hurt as I fight to keep my smile upright and push down the urge to retreat and run out of the room again. The hulkish man, I definitely had a feverish dream about beating him senseless, steps closer with a scrunched-up expression. I try to read it to find out if he

    Theodore “I need to shower,” I mumble, not really knowing if I am asleep or awake. Have I been dreaming all of this? Helades presses his lips against my back, and I hug my pillow tighter, an explosive sensation shuddering through me. While my skin covers itself in goosebumps, he chuckles, hi

    Theodore“Theo? Theo!” I startle out of my daydream, finding Gilda tapping her foot. The men around me laugh as I jump to my feet, balancing as I flinch because of the soreness in my muscles. “Did something happen?” I ask panicky. She scoffs, blowing upwards and getting her bangs to bounce up. “
