The jolt of power wasn't taken with a grain of rice at all. His eyes flared up that deep amber gold when the waves of electricity shot through him. Pain wasn't exactly something that he had been shying away from lightly, not to mention he had taken quite a few lessons from a very old, and very powerful werewolf that could have easily wiped out all of the Beacon Hills gang within minutes. Theo was pretty sure all he had to do was bring it up for fun, but that wasn't what he wanted.
"Yea....a little." He said it almost breathlessly as he absorbed as much of the electricity as he could, he hadn't expected such a sharp jolt from her but it meant more power for him. Looking around again for a brief moment he pressed his lips in a fine line looking like he was battling with himself over something, and he was. He swallowed down the feeling that rested in the back of his throat, like it was chaffing his insides as his fists tightened at his sides. Still close to her she'd be able to feel the energy coming off of him the longer he stood there in silence, having his inner battle.
It wouldn't be able to last that long though, he could control it yea, of course. His emotions, his temper on the other hand. That wasn't the easier part to control. Scott had told him, Stiles had told him, Isaac...well he really didn't say anything but he was pretty sure the general saying was for Theo to stay away from that whole pack. He wasn't listening though, and why should he? He wasn't a Beta, or an Omega. He didn't have to worry about making it on his own. Did he strive to be with a pack, yes. He'd been without one for a while now though. He could keep doing it if he had to. Still, he wouldn't stay away. He couldn't, and he hated that he couldn't.
Growling from closed lips he would huff some and put a little space between them. "Do you believe them? Do you think they're right? You agree with them? Ya know, Scott's pack was all about not needing to kill anyone...look at them now. Jumping at the chance to take their aim at me. Too stupid to see or realize I'm not the problem anymore...too..." He growled again and tried to calm himself down. "They can't keep you safe the way I can, Kira..."
