Theodora paused for a long moment, blinking more times than she should. Then, her eyes darted between Cain and Sylas like she was trying to figure something out, or rather, trying to wrap her brain around their conversation.
Father? Son?!
Her eyes lingered on Sylas's face this time, hoping it wasn't true. There was probably a big misunderstanding somewhere along their conversation. It sounded like a big, joke to her, but their reactions said otherwise.
Neither of them would ever joke about something like this, and if she remembered correctly, Zeke once told her about...an elder brother he once had.
The one who tried to escape from Cain without him, and passed away in the process.
Her palm came over her mouth and pressed to keep the gasp from escaping. Sylas was... Zeke's big brother? It suddenly made so much sense. It must be the reason why Zeke never trusted him for one second, why they seem to want to rip each other apart each time their paths crossed.
