"It wasn't just about power, was it?" It couldn't be. Liam refused to believe that. Theo wanted the power but he was never lacking it. He looked away like he was deeply in thought. "No, it wasn't." Liam waited. He didn't ask anything else, he just waited for Theo to continue. "I promised someone that I will find a way out, away from the Doctors. I don't expect anyone to understand how it was living with them and I don't expect you to understand why there was no other way. But it ended, how it ended, and they are dead now anyway. I just changed one prison for another." Still, the same tone. Not a sign of anything. "You deserved it." Liam didn't recognize his own voice. It was just a whisper, full of hurt and pity. It was a plead. I wish you didn't. I wish it wasn't true. But you did what you did, and you left me here with broken heart and bleeding soul. I wish you didn't deserve it, but you did.
