All Chapters of My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

THEON "Theon, behind you!" Yileyna shouted, wrapping her arms around my head just as something slammed into us, the impact ramming us against the wall. The throbbing pain where the side of the crate had hit my head was intense. It was accompanied by the strong smell of blood. Fuck. I lifted my head from her breasts and she slowly moved her arms. Letting go of her, I turned and shoved the crate that had hit us away and pulled her to her feet. Blood covered her arm where she had protected my head and a flash of guilt filled me. She stood there unbothered about her injuries, gripping the wall as the ship lurched again. "What’s happening?" She asked as she was thrown to the side. I grabbed her around the waist, pulling her close as I tried to make my way to the ladder. "We may have reached the Lifeless Abyss." I replied, as another sharp lurch threw us to the ground. Two crates crashed against one another, one of them splintered open and a pile of apples and melons tumbled out in al

YILEYNA The following two days, I avoided being alone with Theon like a wolf avoiding silver and wolfsbane. I stayed with Charlene when I could, or locked myself away in my room after having to ask Ailema for a second key. Theon would train Charlene in the mornings, but I asked Raiden or Ryan to accompany me to watch as well. Theon would make one of the men train with Charlene, but he too didn’t talk to me. At times I saw him watching me, at others I could feel his intense gaze upon me, but I didn’t entertain him. However, even then, the emotions coursing through me. Every time our eyes connected, I felt the intense rush of desire take my breath away. Theon was a dangerous addiction and one I was consumed with. I knew if he tried, the chances that he would break my walls once more were high, and so I didn’t even try to rile him up. Even when Leto begged me to sing along to his sea shanty, I refused. Mom said my voice was beautiful, and she always asked me to sing for her when she

YILEYNA The journey through the pass had been uneventful and everyone was beyond surprised at that. The tension had grown as the hours had passed, but I was just relieved that there had not been any attacks. We had reached Bellmead just before sunset the following day and would spend the night at a local inn. The crew were dealing with mending the minor damage to the ship’s exterior, and those from the Silver Storm pack would spend the night in the inn, whilst half the crew would stay on the ship to make sure no one sneaks aboard. Theon had made it clear to everyone that no one was to discuss our journey, where we were headed or where we were from. To keep it vague and simply state that we were from Astalion if anyone asked. The town itself was small, and on every corner, there were people leering at us. Curiosity and suspicion had been clear in their eyes from the moment we stepped off that ship. Theon had taken the lead, with Charlene and I right behind him, and the others had f

YILEYNA "And then I cut off his tail, before slaying him on the spot!" "Bravo!" That story was overly exaggerated… I resisted rolling my eyes as I drank my tankard of ale. Theon and I were at the Tavern and although I was enjoying listening to the stories, some were a little too overly colourful. We had faced a Kraken and Sirens, but it hadn't been colourful, although it was an adventure. "He’s lying right out of his ass." Someone scoffed, making a rumble of laughter go through the room. "What did you just say, you rotten piece of dog shit?" The werewolf who had been speaking growled. "Alright boys, play nice or I'm kicking you all out." The buxom, middle-aged owner of the tavern warned, pouring a few drinks. She was a pretty woman with brown curls and hazel eyes. Her top left her cleavage on show. Like the rest of the ladies serving here, her outfit was provocative, and the men didn’t hide their approval of seeing the women sashaying their hips around teasingly. "Why can’t they

YILEYNA Back at sea, without even one night of enjoying the comfort of a warm bed, everyone on board was irritable and crabby. Especially since they had to grab supplies in a rush and they hadn't completed the fixing of the ship's side, let alone even getting a moment to simply sit back and enjoy a tankard of ale or mead. Luckily, they had gotten the ship mostly fixed up. The damage was minor, so it wasn’t too bad. As we moved away from the island of Bellmead, I glanced back at the lights and the dark cobbled streets, remembering the little siren and how her scales were being harvested… That was something I wouldn’t ever forget. Then Theon killing that man, and our hot moment… We had only been on the island for a few hours, yet so much had happened. I doubted I’d see this place again, but I wouldn’t forget it. "Someone get the luggage and supplies below deck!" Flynn growled, clearly pissed off about his day to relax being cut short. "Aiy, Captain." Sam replied, as he and three ot
