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

Chapter 75

“Calm the fuck down, Yileyna.” Theon growled as he pushed against the whirling wind.

My head was going to explode! He knew the king’s attitude, and I knew that he would have gone to talk to Soleil. Charlene would be there, and he wouldn’t take care to break it to her gently. We both knew the king was selfish, yet Theon stopped her from coming here… I could have done it in a better way! I could have told her in a gentler manner! She may or may not be my biological sister, but she was always going to be my soul sister regardless of blood.

I was scared, terrified that she would be hurt because of me… and Theon. He had to go mess everything up! “Don’t tell me to calm down.” I hissed, clenching my fists as I stormed over to him, the wind whipping around us like a hurricane. “If I messed up something of yours, you would lose your shit! So don’t tell me to calm down! This was so important, Theon!”

“The Alpha can handle her himself. Stop causing a fucking scene.” He growled, glancing around the room before he grabbed my arm. I could see the Bolton’s watching, looking at the wind that was beating around me.

Calm yourself…

Zarian’s guidance ran in my mind, and I tried to take a steady breath.

I had to be careful, I was indoors, there were patients here. I allowed Theon to pull me into the hallway, but the moment we were out, I punched him, he dodged but I managed to snag a hit at his neck

His eyes flashed as he licked his bottom lip, looking pissed.

“I hope she does get hurt. Wouldn’t that be fun?” He whispered tauntingly.

My eyes flashed in anger. “Why do you hate her? She’s never done anything to you!”

The nearest window slammed open, the skies darkening outside.

“I hate how you belittle her! She is a far better person than you ever will be!” I snapped resentfully.

My chest was heaving with emotions that seemed to no longer be in my control.

“Control yourself.” He warned coldly, any amusement from his face going as he glanced at the weather outside.

He looked back at me, and whatever he saw in my face made him frown. “Last warning, little storm. Control it or I will fucking knock you out.” He growled. The pain in my stomach was growing, and although I was trying to focus, I couldn’t, the havoc of emotions from everything was taking over. Unleash it all…

I just wanted to scream and let it all out… “Ylleyna!” His voice was fading, but when he tried to grab me, I pushed him off, punching him.

He blocked, knocking my hand aside, flipping me. He skidded on the glassy ice on the floor, and landed flat on his back with me on top. He didn’t seem to be bothered by rolling us over. so I was beneath him.

That must have hurt.

“Get off of me!” I hissed. This dress may have been made from a delicate fabric, but it was stronger than I thought it would be

We slid on the ice. He was unable to hold his balance, something I was having no issue with. His rising irritation would have been amusing if I was not so angry. He growled, as I twisted, slamming him onto his back, and this time I landed a solid punch on his handsome jaw. A satisfying crack made me smile. “You know what I love more than hearing you groan in pleasure?” I whispered in his ear, just as he

managed to wrap his hand around my throat, yanking me closer. “It’s the sound of me breaking your bones.” I added darkly before slamming my free hand into his nose.

I gasped as he flipped us, slamming me into the ice. My vision darkened as he straddled me, his eyes glowing, his coppery hair falling in front of his forehead. “Shame you won’t be breaking any more bones then.” He whispered, pinning my wrists to the ground.

Wrong move.

The moment I was unable to fight against his strength, I felt another tug in my stomach, a gut - wrenching one that made me unable to breathe for several seconds.

He was thrown back by a powerful blast, the shimmering haze creating a barrier around me. The pain in my stomach was growing, and I heard the sound of thunder through the open window. Blinding lightning followed. I heard screams of panic and distant shouting, but I wasn’t quite able to place where we were anymore.

I flinched with pain that seemed to be tearing my stomach apart. “Yileyna?” Theon called, but I was in too much pain to respond. I saw his shadow approach despite the vicious wind that now encased me. He pushed against it trying to reach me, the wind cutting into his skin, but he didn’t seem bothered. He managed to take hold of me by my arm

Fire.

The scene around me was changing, This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

I was in the open castle courtyards…

A hooded man in a black cape stood there… there was so much fire… bodies were discarded all around…

What was going on?

The cloaked man turned, his glowing amber eyes met mine… I couldn’t see who it was, but I

felt like I knew him… He said something, but I couldn’t hear… and then he threw a lit match towards me…

I screamed in agony as I felt my entire body burn, the taste of blood in my mouth, and then everything went cold… so cold.

But I could see nothing, my powers making me fall to my knees.

A scream filled the air, and I knew it was mine.

“Yileyna!” “Everyone stay back!” “Dear Goddess…” “Yileyna, fuck, listen to me.” Theon… His voice was soft, calm, and soothing, but I was no longer able to do anything, the agonising pain in my stomach crushing me. “Leyna…”

I gasped the moment I felt his touch on my arms. The scene with the blazing fire returned, and I knocked Theon away.

“Don’t touch me!” I screamed blindly. “Yileyna, calm down, listen it’s me, Raiden.” A calmer touch brushed my back, but I flung him away without meaning to.

I couldn’t see anything but the fierce wind and fog. “Fuck, she’s bleeding… I’ll handle her, Bolton!” Theon’s possessive growl came.

“What on Kaeladia…”

Was that the king?

I could taste the blood in my mouth. My ear drums felt like they were going to burst. “Stop! This might be it… The seal may break”. “She’s bleeding!” Theon’s dangerous reply came. “I’m knocking her out.” “Theon! She can do this! Let her.” The king thundered, only adding to my irritation.

“No. Not like this.” Theon’s voice held finality as the king growled, before his strong arms wrapped around me and something hit the back of my neck. I gasped as everything began to go dark… “I got you.” His whispered promise came before I succumbed to the darkness… 3

My eyes flew open. I was in a bed… I couldn’t recognise which room, but the bed was large, with heavy bedding. It was dark, the curtains were drawn, and I could hear faint talking.

I pushed the cover off, realising I was only in the under-layer bodysuit, my dress gone. What happened?

It took me a few minutes for everything to come back to me. I closed my eyes, placing my head in my hands.

I had messed up, I shouldn’t have gotten angry or lost control like this… Zarian had told me I

needed to control my emotions. Did I hurt anyone? I remembered Theon and Raiden were both there. Goddess! Raiden didn’t get hurt again, did he? “Yileyna, you’re awake.” My heart pounded, 1 gasped before I realised that Charlene had been sitting by the bed and had awoken with a start herself. “Goddess, you scared me.” I scolded, placing a hand on my heart. A smile crossed her lips, despite the sadness in her eyes as she flicked the lamp on

She had been crying.

My stomach sank, and I wondered if she knew. I wrapped my arms around her and she hugged me tightly. Her heart was pounding, and she held me so fiercely, as if scared she was going to lose me. “Tell me, my queen, what’s wrong?” I whispered, I could hear talking and I didn’t want to be disturbed.

“I’m fine, I’m just glad you are ok.” She replied, moving back and brushing my hair back

“Where are am I?” I asked, glancing around the room. “You’re in the guest bedroom in our quarters.” Charlene said quietly.

“Oh…”

I had never been here before. I usually spent time in the living areas or Charlene’s bedroom whenever I stayed over.

“Yes, Dad didn’t allow Theon to take you… and he refused to leave.” She added quietly.

Theon had no right to act possessive.

Dummy.

We fell silent and I wondered if she knew anything about what had happened…

“Theon… He’s the reason I got angry.” I frowned.

“You called our code.” She said softly. She had lost her usual positivity, almost sounding empty… “I did. There was something I wanted to tell you before you heard it from someone else.” I said quietly. She nodded, “Oh, what was it?” How do I start? “If it helps… I think I already know.” She murmured, giving me a weak smile. “Y-you do?”

She nodded. “If it’s the fact that I’m not… I’m not Dad’s daughter.” She looked down at me

and my stomach sank. How had the king broken it to her? Was it gently? Did he comfort her and reassure her that no matter what, he’d always be her father? She seemed to notice my expression and tried to smile cheerily. “It’s ok… He.” “Did he… what else did he say?”

“He hasn’t talked to me… The castle’s been crazy. He only commanded me to stay with you in this room… They got back a short while ago but… I haven’t talked to him.”

“Oh… So aside from that, what else do you know?” I asked hesitantly.

She sighed. “Gamma Grayson is my dad.” She whispered, making me gasp.

I was not expecting that!

My mind was reeling, the Luna and Gamma Grayson never seemed close… “Ryan’s your brother!” I hissed. She shrugged. “Seems it… All I know is that they have taken Gamma Grayson to the cells… You know he’s always been nice… he’s a good gamma…” She mumbled, her eyes looking tearful. “Mom is not allowed to leave her room.” 1

This was a mess, but the king locked the gamma up for cheating… Shouldn’t he be locked up for cheating too then?

Such a hypocrite. 1

“There’s more… He said he has a daughter, a biological daughter that he has foun-”

The door opened, and none other than the king’s frame filled the doorway.

“Ah, my girls.” A grin crossed his face, and I felt my stomach sink when I heard Charlene’s heart skip a beat… 1

He never referred to me as his girl…

Way to go, Alpha.

“How are you feeling, my dear?” He asked, coming over to the bed, with concern on his face.

My heart was thumping as I looked at Charlene. Our eyes met, and neither of us needed to say it out loud to know that the other knew the full truth…

I could see the sadness in her eyes, the confusion… behind that gentle smile of hers that tugged on my heart strings. How do I fix this? The king was speaking, but I didn’t care, I couldn’t focus on anything else. My only concern was for my soul sister, my best friend, my queen.
