Theodora thought luck was on her side when Sylas didn't show up for class today. Apparently, he wasn't part of the Professors who had classes with them today, which was a big relief.
That was until she was told Sylas had summoned her to his office immediately after class.
William was next to her as she walked toward his office, trying to keep a straight face.
"Just... just tell him the truth. What if you tell him your roommate tried to kill you and that's why you were absent? What if...what if we blame me on something...,"
Theo paused and turned to him, giving him a short smile, "I'm fine, Liam. He is probably gonna give me a lecture and punish me, but it's not like I'm gonna die,"
"Yeah, yeah," He didn't sound so sure and tried to mask it with a nervous laughter, "You won't die. You'll only be meeting Professor Sylas alone in his office, where you alone would absorb all that fierce, cold energy of his till he states your verdict and dismisses you. That's totally fine,"
