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

Chapter 29

29. Memories Of Pain THEON 

I couldn‘t sleep. Long after her heartbeat steadied, when her struggle not to press against my cock stopped and the exhaustion of the long day overcame her, I lay awake. The distant sound of the waves seeped through the walls of the small cabin. Her soft rhythmic breathing was accompanied by a random whimper or tiny moan when she adjusted her position, wriggling her ass as she pressed herself into my cock She was a minx, and I knew if given the option, she‘d love to play and have her way with me. I looked down at her, her creamy breasts pressed together in her silk top. One of her hands cupped the wrist of the arm that was under her head.

I had ruined her life in more ways than she knew. If all she wanted was a little comfort… I could give her that... 1 

But deep down I knew it wasn‘t why I had come to her room, and that same reason was keeping me awake. A night from long ago replayed in my mind. The events of today had brought back those painful memories... 

Seeing Yileyna at the helm, her hands tied, helpless as she stared into the face of death… I don‘t know what pull she had on me, but I didn‘t want to lose her, not yet. She was proving a good distraction from the turmoil in my mind. 1 

She wasn’t scared to piss me off, and when I was around her, it distracted me from the storm within my head. It had almost been a decade since then, but the memory was still fresh in my mind... 

Closing my eyes I pressed my lips to the back of her shoulder, enjoying the feel of her cool skin against my lips. For a werewolf, she was always cool rather than hot, but I liked that, feeling her against the heat of my own body. Heat that she awakened within me. Her fresh scent of sea breeze and spring confused me, just like the sea. I loved it as much as I hated it. Werewolves prefer land, but growing up I enjoyed travelling by sea, enjoying the adventure, until that event anyway... Love and hate. That‘s how it felt. 

Yileyna was the same, I hated her, yet I desired her... I don‘t know how it worked… Wanting to rip someone apart for consuming me, and then wanting to protect that person no matter the cost... 

I sighed, staring up at the ceiling. My head was pounding, but no matter how many times I tried to push the memory that now raged at the forefront of my mind away, it was futile… A memory of a tragedy that had happened not far from here… A memory from long ago… (FLASHBACK – ALMOST A DECADE AGO) The smell of blood filled the air, a few bodies with their hearts ripped out littered the deck The bodies of our men.

” Theon! Hide!” 

“I am not leaving you alone!” I hissed, staring into the beautiful blue eyes of the strongest woman I knew. 1

“That‘s an order.” She whispered back, her voice gentle yet her command absolute. The seductive, haunting song that was filling my ears was lulling me to sleep.

I knew we were the only ones left. The pack had died protecting us... 

“Mom, I have my wolf, I‘m fine.” I hissed. 

I had shifted far faster than most, and I was not going to sit aside and do nothing.

“Theon, your life is worth far more than mine. Protect your sisters.” Her voice was anguished, and although I didn‘t let it show, it fucking terrified me. 

“I...” 

I nodded, it was my duty to protect my family… Mom was right, besides, she had more of a chance against them than I did. Dad was meant to meet us… Where was he?
