The Dark Valley - 4

Silas's POV

"What are you looking at?" I asked.

"I'm checking if anyone is around or not because I'm kinda sleepy right now. I thought I should ask them for a blanket and a pillow."

"You're kidding, right?"

As I asked, Theron glanced at me with a smile. Of course, he was joking, but couldn't he at least consider our situation before making a joke?

"But Theron, you have amazing strength. Can you tell me how you got it?"

We were in a dungeon, and it wasn't like staying silent would help us escape any faster. So why not talk to kill time? I was sure Nekol must have realized by now that I had disappeared, and Theron's brothers too—they must have started searching for us.

"When I was born, I heard I was really weak. Unlike other Alphas, I couldn't even stand on my legs. My parents always gave me extra care. But when I was ten, someone bullied my younger brother."
