Chapter 45: Theo (I)

Theo Zaal, the son of Tessa and Neban, was born on the simplest of days. 

When Tessa first saw Neban, the thought going through her head was that she wanted him. And not because she fell for him; no, it was far from that. Because she knew that someday the man would have fame and fortune. 

Even though the man was not a hunter, she could feel how overwhelming his aura was.

So Tessa wanted to manipulate the man into falling in love with her, possibly trapping him with a child, so he could offer her everything she always wanted. 

Initially, she thought it was easy when she started hanging out where the man would usually go because he seemed to have set a routine for himself. 

But she learned that it wasn't. 

Neban would quickly enter and go like he was in a race on how fast he could get his order. It annoyed Tessa, but it did not stop her from trying to catch his attention.
