My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance

Chapter 134

44. 44. I Promise You 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 fucking messed up. The first rule of war... the children, women, and elderly must not be harmed.

A stifled sob made me turn back to her, and I pulled her into my arms, embracing her tightly. There was nothing to say that would ease her pain and so I just held her, rubbing her back and arms as she clutched my shirt tightly, sobbing to her heart‘s content into my chest.

I placed soft kisses on her shoulders, head and cheeks, trying to comfort her, wanting to ease the pain that was tormenting her. I was seething with rage, every time the collar touched me, it reminded me of its presence.

How dare he fucking collar her like she was his belonging!

His words from a short while earlier rang in my head,

‘I will marry her...‘

That‘s never fucking happening... “I love you. I love you, Theon.” She was whispering. I moved back reluctantly, cupping her face and tilting it up as I looked down at her. “And I you, Little Storm, beyond anything else.” I brushed her tears away, kissing her forehead once again.

I did this, I let that monster into this kingdom... That child‘s death was on my hands.

Her gorgeous eyes pooled with tears as she slowly ran her hands up my chest and cupped my neck, pulling me closer. Our eyes met, and despite the emotions she awoke within me, the pain

she was in was fucking killing me. “What did they do to you?” I asked hoarsely, trying to fight my own emotions as I pressed my lips to hers softly.

The tingles of pleasure danced through me, and the emotions that were attached to them were far more than words could ever speak.

I was so fucking sorry for everything I had ever done. Making the vow to be here for her, this time I wouldn‘t let her be taken from me.

She sobbed as she kissed me back tenderly, her plump soft lips caressing mine in an agonisingly yet beautiful movement.

I fucking love you.

I broke away after a few moments, both of us breathing hard despite the slow kiss. Our emotions whirled around us.

“Tell me, Little Storm.” I whispered, wiping a fresh wave of tears from her face.

I had not seen her so broken in a while…

“He tried to rape me, Theon.”

My heart stilled, shock hitting me hard as I looked at her. I felt numb, my head began pounding but I couldn‘t comprehend anything. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“But Arabella came and said you were back... and he stopped before... before...” Her voice broke as she clamped her hands over her mouth to silence her cry of pain.

I pulled her back into my arms, hugging her tightly. “No one is going to fucking touch you again.” A promise to myself more than to her.

Theoden‘s death was going to be painful. So fucking painful. I would be the one to rip him apart, inch by fucking inch.

“Yileyna, mark me.” I said the words quietly, yet she stiffened, looking up at me in fear as she shook her head. 2 “No, not when there‘s a chance I might die. I don‘t want you to die.” You‘re not ever fucking dying.

“Hey... Look, we need a means of communication, and this will give us the link. It‘s not like I can mark you with that collar.”

She didn‘t buy it, looking at me with hurt in her eyes.

“You wouldn‘t mark me though, because you would risk your own life but not let harm come to me.” She said, her eyes flashing. Oh my beautiful Little Storm. “We may have rejected one another, but that bond

will come to life once more if we mark one another.”

of course I wouldn‘t let any harm come to her.

“Look, we need the mind link.” I said, caressing her cheek. It wasn‘t only the mind link, I also wanted to have that connection to her, so I knew if she was ever in pain.

“Theon, if I die.”

I placed a finger to her lips, cutting her off. “You won‘t die, our people and your kingdom await. We will make it through, and we will defeat them. Arabella is the one we need to get rid of first. Look Raiden, Charlene, and the others are here in Westerfell somewhere. I will make sure they‘re safe and we will work on a plan. You are not alone, and we will come out of this victorious, but you need to mark me, beautiful.”

“I dreamed of us marking one another so many times... but none was in this scenario.” She whispered, kissing my finger. “I‘m sorry.” I wished I could make it better for her. As much as I wanted to fuck her whilst she marked me, it was far too risky. I lifted her collar, feeling the burning darkness from it, and it was burning her neck too. Angry red marks ran along her skin where the collar touched her. “It‘s tied to the lives of my pack, it‘s how the baby died.” She said, her eyes full of anguish.

“We are going to get through this.” I promised. “The baby‘s death is not on you, it‘s on Theoden, and he will fucking pay.” I pulled her against me, kissing her jaw. The very urge to rip this collar off her was difficult to contain. I threaded my hand into her hair. “Mark me. I have to leave before Theoden notices, but with the link, I will be able to know if you‘re in trouble.”

She hesitated as our eyes remained locked, before she nodded reluctantly. She tilted her head up, her gaze flickering to my lips, I leaned down and kissed her deeply and passionately. She moaned softly, and the scent of her arousal reached my nose, making me throb.

Fuck.

I slipped my tongue into her mouth, deepening the kiss. I pulled her dress up, slipping my hand through the slit and cupping her ass as I pulled her against my hardened dick. She sighed as she pressed herself against me, kissing me back with equal passion.

I forced myself away after a few seconds, my eyes blazing as I grabbed her waist and lifted her up, arching my head to the right, allowing her full access to mark me.

Our eyes met, and a thousand emotions rushed through me. I never thought I‘d ever let anyone mark me... I never thought the day would come when I‘d be full of so many fucking emotions that it would be fucking hard to breathe, but even then, I wouldn‘t change this.

“Are you sure?”

I smiled faintly. “The entire kingdom wants Yileyna De‘Lacor on their arms, but she belongs to me, and I will wear this mark proudly. Maybe when things settle I‘ll even flaunt it to let a few jealous men, like a certain Fae for example, know that you are mine.” 1 “Of course, I‘ve always been yours. I fell in love with you Theon, from the very start, and nothing changed that.” She whispered, caressing my face. “I couldn‘t walk away from you even when I wanted to.” I replied, combing my fingers through her hair. “Your eyes look alive again.”

“Because they are gazing upon you.” ? She smiled, rolling her eyes despite the faint blush that coated her cheeks. “Who knew Theon Hale could be so charming?”

“Trust me, even I didn‘t. However, it‘s the doing of the pearl.”

“I hoped it would work.”

So she made me wear it for a reason...

She chuckled weakly before we became serious once more.

Our eyes met, and she took a deep breath, extracting her canines as she leaned in. My heart thudded as I waited for her fangs to sink into me, and when they did I closed my eyes, intense sparks rushing through me. I felt the magical pull of the bond strengthen, a bond that we had destroyed. It was strong and her scent heightened, as seductive as ever just ten thousand times more.

Fuck..

A part of me began to wonder how it would feel if I ever got the chance to mark her too... Pleasure rushed to my cock as she moaned against my neck, I never fucking wanted her to move. She slowly extracted her teeth and teasingly ran her tongue along my neck, making my breath hitch.

“You‘re mine.” Her voice was seductive and possessive, and when our eyes met, hers were glowing vibrantly. “Always.” I replied with a smirk before claiming her lips once more in an electrifying kiss that made me fucking see stars.

When we broke apart we were both breathless, her more than me, which satisfied me. She could be the Queen, but I was the one who could sweep her off her feet. I kissed her forehead once more, before I slowly placed her down. 1 “I need to leave now, I was wondering what you wanted to do with the pearl?” I asked quietly. She looked down at my chest, frowning slightly. “The sirens gave me a necklace so that I could contact them, Theoden or Arabella took it, if you can find it and then go to the coast....”

“Continue.” I urged, seeing her hesitate. I was beyond the point of hate. This was all a game orchestrated by the biggest villain of all time. The rest were simple victims of his evil plans... She nodded. “Call them, Deliana… Give her the pearl and then tell her what is happening, ask her for help. I‘m sure she will assist us, Theon.” “Understood.” I said, cupping her face. I kissed her lips once more. “We are going to fucking win this, come whatever.”

With those parting words, I left the room with an aim in mind. Theoden‘s end was near, and it was time to get the ball rolling...
