THEON. The doors to the castle were opened for me, and although I could sense the tension and uncertainty from the guards, it was obvious that despite the fact they may be suspicious or cautious of me, they were unable to refuse me entry. All eyes were on me as I walked through the courtyard, illuminated by a few dim lanterns. "The King’s son is back!" "Alpha Theon is here!" "Alpha, come, I will have a room ready for you immediately." One of the castle servants offered. "I wish to see my father, immediately." I replied coldly. Despite the calmness I was portraying, I was a mess inside. I wanted to see Yileyna, wanted to make sure she was ok. It was plaguing my mind to not know what she was going through. I had travelled for hours straight, and I made the journey that should have taken much longer, I completed it in a day. Just the thought of Yileyna was enough to keep pushing me to carry on. My muscles were screaming in exhaustion, but I didn’t let it show. "The Alpha is ready

THEON. She stood up, still clutching the bundle in her arms, as I entered and swiftly shut the door behind me. Closing the gap between us, I pulled her into my arms. Our hearts hammered as I held her tightly. "Theon." She whispered, my hand weaved into her hair. I tugged her head up, pressing my lips to her forehead as I closed my eyes, inhaling her scent. Fuck, she was here… alive… "Hush, I got you." I murmured. She clung to me with one hand, the other clutching the bundle that she was treasuring, and I forced myself back to see what she was holding. "It’s a baby." She whispered, fresh tears spilling down her cheeks. There was no heartbeat. My heart sank as a thousand thoughts ran through my mind. "The baby died because I lost control of my powers." She whimpered, staring at the dead baby in her arms. How could he? I tried to control my own emotions as I slowly took the body of the baby from her. She let go reluctantly and I placed him down on the bed. Theoden was beyond fu

CHARLENE. It was late when Theoden had entered the cells with a few men, pointing at a few of us and talking through the mind link. I wasn’t sure what they were saying. My heart filled with fear as Raiden, Thea, and I were dragged from the cells, bound and blindfolded. Where were they taking us? Gamma Grayson had been taken not long ago, and I was terrified to think where he may be. The beatings I had seen others go through terrified me, and just the memory of Raiden being tortured again made it hard to breathe. Luckily, Theoden hadn't seen my mark, the high-neck dress I had been wearing had hidden it, and when the guards had seen it afterwards, none cared about it. I was not a threat, but I knew if they even got wind of the fact that I was Hunter’s mate, the consequences would be horrifying. Chosen or fated, they would not let me go. It was Hunter’s name that was plastered across the resistance, and they hadn't hidden the fact they wanted him dead. Now more than ever I needed to b

CHARLENE. That night we talked hours into the night, filling each other in on everything that had happened. Listening to the things Thea had been subjected to at the hands of her father shocked me, and I realised how lucky I was to grow up with a father who sheltered me. Even if I never saw eye-to-eye with my mother, it was still nothing compared to what she had been through. We all had slowly drifted off, but my sleep was plagued with nightmares of burning bodies, Hunter dying… Yileyna dying, and the world being conquered by evil. The following day, no one came, and we simply sat there; starving, thirsty, and tired. I felt too exhausted to talk much, and the day passed painstakingly slow. I was unsure when sleep kept pulling me into its folds, and I had come down with a high temperature. I know they were talking to me but nothing made much sense anymore… I awoke with a jolt and sat up my heart pounding, as I scanned the area trying to figure out why I had awoken, when I saw the

YILEYNA. The day of the gathering had come, and I was lucky that I hadn't seen Theoden again. The memory of what almost happened still placed a sliver of fear within me. What could have happened if Theon didn’t arrive? A guard would come to give me food a few times, and had taken the baby. Although I had asked if he would return the baby to the parents, I wasn’t sure he would, as he had simply slammed the door behind him. Theon had slipped inside yesterday, leaving a dagger and a few charms with me, telling me that today was the day of the attack. Theoden was planning something tonight, I had to stay alert. As for the necklace given to me by Lavine, he had said he had a good idea where it might be, and if he didn’t manage to find it, then he would go to the coast and try to contact someone by other means. I was certain the sirens would be on alert. Waiting. I was now pacing the room, feeling suffocated and useless, when suddenly the door opened and Arabella entered, along with tw

THEON. “Theon… Are you content with what I am doing?” Theoden asked as he patted my shoulder. I had just talked to Yileyna through the link, and I was planning on leaving soon. Most of yesterday had passed looking for the necklace, and to see if I could find anything on the Dark Ones. Theoden was far too busy to do much, and he kept giving me jobs away from the castle, not that I minded since I needed an excuse to leave at times. “Of course.” I replied. I was wearing a high neck top to cover my mark, and it was taking me immense restraint to keep my powers in check. Powers that had strengthened since she marked me, the mark upon my neck which I did not deserve. I was lucky that I trained for years to gain self-control and pull back my aura. “Then trust in me, no matter what happens, remember your father is only doing what the gods would approve of. It is time for all those who have hurt us, to pay. The beginning of the end for the sirens will happen as I promised!” “I can’t wait.

YILEYNA. The laughter and the music felt distant. The largest courtyard was transformed beautifully, decorated with lanterns, flowers, and vines. They ran across the tables, the pillars, and the furniture. Two thrones sat upon a dais, where Theoden and I now sat. I still wore my veil, to disguise the collar. The moment for our wedding to take place was coming ever closer… The long tables were full of meat and wine, although I could tell that not everyone was enjoying themselves. What had started off with the Alphas offering their gifts to Theoden, with fear and uncertainty, was now a place of false merriment. A few looked at me guiltily for betraying me for their own wellbeing and safety, but most were far too cowardly to care. Yet I was proud to see that many were not impressed with Theoden. With each passing moment, I could feel the darkness becoming far more potent. I could sense it in the air, feeding on the Alphas' restlessness and the fear that they were trying to hide. The

THEON. The mages continued to hold the illusion as we made our way closer to the outer wall. I could see the warriors on the watchtowers seem to hesitate, scanning the grounds. We stopped far behind. The battle plans were in place, and when I was about to give the final command to march onwards, everyone seemed to be distracted. I sensed them before I even turned to confirm it. The imperial sirens. Even with legs, they still didn’t pass as humans; their beauty was different, and seeing them in such a large number made them stand out even more than the fae. These were the imperial sirens of the emperor… Yileyna’s family. There were over a thousand, for sure. Their armour was a shimmery metallic blue silver. At the front were two men and Deliana. The three held tridents, whilst the rest behind them wielded swords or whips. The Naga tensed, and no one spoke as the man that was beside Deliana looked at me intensely. The imperials were watching the Nagas, but neither species said anyth

My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance Author's Note
Thank you for reading this book, and once again, I appreciate all the love, support, and kind words that everyone has given me. For the patience and trust you had in me with this story. This has been the darkest story I have written, and Theon was a character who was not meant to be just a hero. He had committed sins, some of which will forever remain. Yileyna, our innocent yet naughty Yileyna, where do I start? She was a young girl who, in a way, was infatuated with Theon, unable to see anything more than the love she felt for him. They both grew, both changed for the better, and only then were they able to truly be with one another. I am happy that I was able to pen this book the way I had envisioned it. - If you did enjoy this book, could you please take a moment to leave me a review on the main page by clicking the three dots on the top right side of the page, go to ‘about this book', scroll down and leave me a rating and review!

YILEYNA. He was home. He came back to me. His lips met my neck in a deep kiss, and I could feel every muscle in his body tense as he controlled himself from ravishing me. His kisses became hungrier as I forced myself to turn in his arms. I looked up at the man I had so dearly missed. Our eyes locked, his a blazing mix of oranges and golds met my own, my emotions making my hands shake as I cupped his face. "You’re home." "I'm home." He smiled faintly, before our lips met in a deep, passionate kiss. A kiss that made my knees give way, and if he wasn’t holding me, I would have fallen. The prickles of his short beard tickled my chin. The minty taste of his mouth and his scent devoured me, just as his lips dominated mine, kissing me hard and rough. He lifted me entirely from the ground, and I wrapped my legs around his waist as I kissed him back hungrily. He pushed me against the wall, slipping his tongue into my mouth like a man starved for far too long. I moaned helplessly, my core
My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance 59. Epilogue Part 1
YILEYNA. Nine Months Later… Seven months had passed, and I lived for Theon’s letters. In his absence, I put my head down, focusing on the changes I wanted to see in the kingdom. I even found time to visit Deliana down in the sea. She had been happy, now I often went for a swim in siren form with her. A lot had changed. Hunter and Charlene had a beautiful baby boy, who they named Nathanial Gray Carson, after Nathalia and Grayson. It was the perfect name for him. He was an adorable little boy, with brown hair and big soft green eyes. To my absolute delight, Charlene spent a few weeks here when he was a month old, and I loved their company. Enjoying the chance to shower my nephew with lots and lots of love and gifts. I didn’t want to give him back, but I had to. Oh, he was adorable! I wrote to Charlene almost as often as Theon, although the messages were so much lighter than the longing and pain I tried to hide in the ones to my beloved. Thea and Raiden were engaged. They would wed i
My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance 58. His Departure
THEON. We hadn’t slept that night… Even after sex, we couldn’t sleep, not with the fact that I would be gone in the morning… My heart felt heavy as I now picked up my coat, and my small bag was ready. She stood there dressed in one of my shirts with a corset around her waist, paired with simple grey pants. Her heart was thundering as she watched me. It fucking hurt… She had bidden Charlene, Hunter, and Zoe goodbye just an hour ago, and now it was time for me to leave. I knew she didn’t want me to go, I had seen the tears she shed when she thought I was asleep in the early hours of the morning. The front she put on to be strong… and I fucking wished I could be here, but until I felt like I had done enough to be worthy of her, I would never be at ease. Yet, once again because of me, she was hurting. "Hey… if you want, cry." I said quietly, pulling her into my arms and tightening my hold. Fuck, I was going to miss her. A soft heart-breaking whimper escaped her as she bunched my s
My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance 57. The Coronation
YILEYNA. The day of the coronation had arrived. I was wearing a sequined strapless silver dress, which was fully embroidered, and encrusted with pearls and jewels on the bodice. It was fitted to just above my knees before it flared out with a long trail behind it. The embroidery was lighter on the skirt, with a full border at the bottom. A matching cape stood to the side which I would wear once it was time to take my oath. My make-up was glowing, and my hair was half pinned up with soft curls tumbling down my back. I was wearing silver heels, as well as a large silver necklace and earrings. Matching gloves reached my elbows, and I wore a few rings. I was currently in the new royal quarters, a place I had chosen for Theon and myself. It was towards the back of the castle, despite it not usually being the place preferred by royals as it was smaller. However, the view was stunning. Looking out over the gardens below and the coast in the distance had tempted me to choose this part of th
My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance 56. About the Future
YILEYNA. Three hours had passed, and we had just showered after a very sizzling few rounds of sex. I had put some roast chicken and vegetables in the oven that would be done soon, and I was slipping on a black silk nightdress that reached mid-thigh. I sat in front of the vanity mirror, opening Mom’s jewellery box. The few remaining items that I had managed to salvage were all here, along with the amulet that belonged to Theon’s mother. I had been given it by one of the omegas who were doing a thorough clean of the castle and had found it in his old room, but I hadn't managed to find the right time to return it to Theon. I know it belonged to the Obsidian Shadow pack and was a painful reminder of the wrongs that stained that pack, but it had also been his mother’s. I shut the jewellery box, clutching the necklace in my hand, as I walked out into the main room. The room was glowing with the warm lights of the lanterns, and two windows were open. With summer approaching, the weather w
My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance 55. A Decision at Court
YILEYNA. Three Weeks Later… Three weeks had passed since that night. I took the throne and became the Alpha Queen of Astalion by default. The last few weeks had been a blur of work. Not only were there things to do within Astalion, but there was so much to work out with the other kingdoms and how we would go from here. The foremost was the funeral of our fallen heroes, the victims of Theoden’s actions. The Kingdom was in mourning for three days, and until those days were up and everyone was buried with full honours, there was no merriment. The fallen sirens, nagas and fae were also engraved on the memorial stone in the courtyard of the temple of Selene, for they died for this kingdom and fought bravely alongside us for our people. After the funerals, the next job was making peace between the sirens and nagas. Something that went well enough. Despite the fact the two species will never mix, they came to an agreement, and the Naran empire broke down their dams, letting the water th
My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance 54. Hot as Hell
THEON. I lifted her bridal style, carrying her back to Westerfell. Not many were around, save the guards standing on duty. Neither of us cared for our surroundings as we made our way toward our cabin. A place that we had spent time together only fleetingly, but a place that held some of the best memories we had together. I kicked the door shut behind me, turning the lock in the key before I carried her to the bedroom. Pulling back the top layer that may have collected dust and placing her down, turning one of the lanterns on. I wanted to see her tonight… properly… The dim light cast a glow around the room, and she smiled softly up at me as I slowly pulled my tunic off, tossing it aside. Her eyes raked over my body, her heart thundering. I could see the love in her eyes, the desire and anticipation as she propped herself onto her elbows. Reaching up with her leg, she ran her foot over my cock, which was already semi-hard at just the fucking thought of fucking her. Removing my sho

THEON. The Queen… Someone who fucking deserved the best, but I had marked her… The pull towards her was a storm in my mind, and although the bond was completed, all I fucking wanted to do was fuck and claim her all over again. Seeing everyone bow to her and my mark adorning her neck had overwhelmed me with emotions that were far too many for me to process. I was Alpha now, I felt it the moment he died, the transfer of power... I had walked away, helping with the worst job, disposing of the dead before I had washed my hands with soap a thousand fucking times, wanting to remove the memory of Theoden from my skin. It was strange how everyone looked to me for guidance, as if they had forgotten what I had done in the past. Was it just me who couldn’t forgive myself? I was now down by the coast, sitting on the edge of one of the rocky cliffs, not wanting to run into any sirens down in the water below. I just wanted peace. I had unleashed my anger upon Theoden, but his death had taken
