A sigh escaped Travis' lips as he laid down on his bed.
It had been a long time since he had last slept in his own room, and the reality that he was finally home finally began to sink into him.
Memories of what happened during his stay in Leone's domain surfaced in his mind, especially the words the young chieftain had told him before the representatives of the Darkmane Tribe had arrived to pay their ransom.

"You don't have to believe what I told you right away," Leone said calmly. "You can judge whether I'm joking or not after my war with the Darkmane Tribe ends. However, once I prove it to you, I hope you will make the right decision when the time comes.
—————
Travis wanted to disregard Leone's words as a joke. Yet, there was a nagging thought at the back of his head, telling him, "What if he was right?"
Leone had broken Cain, starting from stripping him of his arrogance. And Cain had felt like an insect.
And the funny part?
Travis was the one who broke him.
