YILEYNA The moment we returned to the palace Theon had told one of the other royal guards to escort Charlene to the healers for a check over. “Don’t I need to go…” A withering glare made me go quiet. I needed a healer too… “She needs to be checked ov-” “Take care of yourself first, princess.” Theon’s icy reply came, cutting Charlene off. I exchanged looks with Charlene but neither of us spoke knowing that if he told the king what happened… we were entirely screwed. All the way back Charlene had kept on saying it was her fault and she was ready to take the responsibility, but Theon had ignored her. I knew she was trying to drill it into him that I had nothing to do with it. But I did… I should have been more responsible. “I can walk.” I declared as we headed towards my quarters. He came to a sudden stop, not even looking at me and dropped me, making me gasp as I landed hard on my ass on the floor. Pain jolted up my side making my eyes sting with tears. Goddess… “Walk then.”
YILEYNA I gasped, my cheeks flushing. “I am not!” But before I could push him away, his thumb flicked one of my hardened nipples sending a sharp sizzle of pleasure to my core. “Your mouth can lie, but your body cannot.” He smirked slightly, now looking into my eyes. “Tell me, Yileyna… Do you taunt me on purpose just so I pay attention to you?” “Don’t get so full of yourself. If I wanted you, I’d say so.” I lied, turning my back on him. Was I that obvious? My heart and stomach were a mess of nerves. I heard a small breathy chuckle leave his lips, his arm snaking around me, placing his hand firmly on my lower stomach as he pulled me back against him, making a small whimpering gasp escape me. I could feel his entire body against me, feel the bulge in his pants press against my lower back only adding to the ache in my core… The way his chest felt, rising and falling behind me… “Then tread carefully… because in the end, don’t forget I am a beast, worse than any other.” I closed my
YILEYNA The Night of The Moon Goddess’ Festival arrived and, like every year, the skies were clear, the full moon gracing us with its presence, and the sheer ambience of the night was warm and welcoming. The merry music drifted in through the open windows, making you want to get up and join. I was getting ready with Charlene. She had been adamant that I spend the afternoon getting ready with her, although this was usually a time one spent with their families, and every year before this one, she and her mother got ready together just as I did with mine. "Those curlers look ready to be removed." Charlene said to the human woman who was helping us. "Yes, princess." Belinda replied, bowing her head before she came over to me and began to remove the curlers from my hair. I stared in the mirror at my face. My make-up was done, having been told my skin was perfect without a base. She said she’d do subtle touch-ups… but I looked entirely different… I looked older, more mature… My cheeks w
YILEYNA "Maybe I was wrong…" Raiden murmured, confusing me. I pulled him to the side as the next song began and more people began to join in with the dancing. "Hi, Theon." I said as I collected my bunny from the ground, dusting it off. His eyes snapped to me, and I saw the tick in his jaw as he clenched his teeth. "Yileyna." My stomach fluttered, as it always did when he called my name. He looked handsome, in full black, his sleeves pushed up and his pants hugging his thighs. A white belt with a silver chain on it was around his hips, only emphasising his incredible body. "It’s a pleasure to see you, Theon." Raiden offered, smiling respectfully. No one needed to announce it for me to know that everyone already saw him as their soon to be Beta. "Wish I could say the same." Theon’s cold reply came. I looked between the two men, the humour that had danced in Raiden’s eyes moments earlier was gone, replaced by curiosity and a hint of something else. "Well, enjoy the evening. Yil
YILEYNA I wandered the streets that were a lot less busy than before, with most at the banquet, although many teens and children roamed the streets rather enjoying more street food than that of the banquet. I walked along with no destination in mind, refusing to allow the tears to fall. After a good hour of walking around, I decided that I needed to start packing. The Alpha said the passage of the title would be in a week’s time, meaning I needed to get out of there. First thing tomorrow, I’ll go looking for a place. Turning back, I decided to head home. I gathered a few discarded boxes on my way to the castle, that had probably contained items for the festival; they would come in handy to pack up my belongings. I guess once Theon becomes Beta, he won’t be Charlene’s guard, but I’m pretty sure he’ll still be training her. As long as I don’t need to see him. I picked up two more boxes and knew I wouldn’t be able to carry anymore, so headed back towards the castle. The guards opened
THEON Yileyna De’Lacor. A girl who had grown into a woman that was every straight man’s dream. I hated it. I hated her and the effect she had on me, but at the same time, I couldn’t get rid of the thoughts of exactly how I wanted to fuck her and ruin her. The very thoughts that fuelled the urge to fuck her with everything I had and destroy her at the same time consumed my mind constantly. I hated distractions, I hated anything that took me away from my goal. Yileyna was just that, a temptation worse than anything else on this planet. From those seductive grey eyes to those plump pouty lips that were made to be wrapped around a cock. She was made of every man’s dirtiest thoughts. The ideal doll to fulfil even the filthiest of sins. She wasn’t built like most women, from her creamy blemish-free skin that never seemed to change no matter what the weather was. A canvas for me to paint with pleasure. Her slender shoulders, that dainty neck that made you want to choke her every fuck
YILEYNA I watched him walk away, leaving me on the table, my heart thundering as I realised this was it. I knew it wasn’t going to be anything more than sex but to leave me the moment we were done… I clamped my hands over my mouth, muffling the sob that left my lips. I don’t know what I was expecting… but I wasn’t anticipating him leaving like that. Why had he felt disgusted at the end? Why could I feel his anger? I pulled my legs to my chest, rocking myself as I tried to control the pain that was suffocating me. I felt even more alone than I had before I gave myself to him. I cried softly into my knees, the sharp throbbing between my legs was a stark reminder of what had happened. A moment of pleasure with the man I had liked for so long... Was it worth it? Had it been worth it? I didn’t know the answer to that... At that time, I couldn’t think of anything but the pleasure. It felt like a dream come true, and I couldn’t deny that I felt like I was in heaven. But now I just felt
THEON I caught her before she collapsed, looking into her beautiful face, as flawless as ever even when in pain… The urge to brush back her blonde locks was strong, but I simply lifted her into my arms as Nikolai stepped forward. "As Beta, you should handle the evidence, I’ll take her." He said with that face of his, you want to punch him every time you see it. "As an Epsilon ranked guard, you should learn when to keep your mouth shut before I have to do it for you." I looked him square in the eye. ‘After what you attempted… you should be worried about your position, because when I become Beta, you are a goner.’ His eyes flashed as I spoke the latter through the link. ‘My family is far too powerful for me to be stripped of my rank for something you have no proof of. Besides, she is the daughter of traitors. Her only value is to be treated like the whore she is.’ My eyes flashed. That blistering anger that always swam beneath the surface was threatening to rise and kill the man be
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
