So now that Tempting Venom is out weāve learned more about the mystery that is Cyrus who we met in Hunt the Villain and will be one of the MMCās in Crave the Villian
Now, Cyrus being the half brother of Marcus, is not something I could have guessed in my wildest dreams. Ito say I was shocked would be an understatement. It also brings a lot more depth to his character that we didnāt get from HtV.
But now knowing more about his childhood, it still leaves me so curious as to what is his connection to Jethro from Kiss the Villain.
They were obviously close, and it seemed by the crumbs we got in HtV that Cyrus looks to be out for revenge. So Iām curious as to what happened.
Even knowing what we do from TV I still canāt figure out what their relation ship is because it has to be over a 10 year age gap. Assuming Jethro is about the same age as Kayden is which is 33, and that Cyrus is about the same age as Yulian which 20 thatās a 13 year age difference. What could their relationship have been. They couldnāt have been romantically been involved because Cyrus was 14 when he moved in with the Dimitries
Serena, Marcusā half sister, said that Cyrus, or patient X, believed the doctors he lived with were his biological parents. So my original theory of maybe Jethro and Cyrus being foster brothers or something similar isnāt right. But I canāt think of what it could be.
I have a couple theories about their past and how it leads up to their book. One was made after reading just HtV. The others were after reading Tempting venom.
1. Jethro had a hand in the accident and is on the run/in hiding from Cyrus
2. After learning more about Cyās past⦠Jethro thought the fire/explosion was real (aka no one was behind it). And he lost himself to grief and continuously made the wrong choices. Eventually leading him to hacking the pentagon and then him faking his death with Kaydenās help.
3. Jethro believed that Cyrus was killed (aka the fire was on purpose) and was out for revenge. He knew that Vencor had ties to the government which is why he tried to hack the Pentagon trying to get info. Which lead him to faking his death
4. Jethro was somehow in on what happened to Cyrus. Like how Cyrus was being used to keep the Osborn sons alive. He knew the truth behind the fire, but believed Cyrus was killed. And then we went on doing whatever it was he did and hack the pentagonā¦
I still believe that at some point, no matter what the truth of their bond was, Jethro eventually learns Cyrus is alive. Because A). Jethro works with Kayden, who works with Yaroslav, who took in Cyrus. B). When Jethro is helping Kayden with his revenge plan, theyāre on Brighton Island where Cyrus is. Like you mean to tell me the man who seems to be the kind of guy who has to know everything didnāt know a person from his path is on the same island as him.
But with Jethro knowing Cyrus is alive, I think that Jethro is hiding from Cyrus because he feels guilty about what happened to Cyrus. Either because he had a hand in it or because he wasnāt able to save him.
For Cyrus, he clearly was looking for Jethro. But the problem was he was looking for Eduard not Jethro. But when he finds him, through Yaroslav and Kaydenās connection. He is finally able to get his revenge because he clearly blames Jethro for what happened.
Iām so excited for Crave the Villain after reading Tempting Venom. I know this book will be very interesting.
Sorry for the long rant. I do that a lot when I post here. What are your guysā theories.
