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

Chapter 31

31. Resentment 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 all directions 

“Well, it‘s definitely does not seem to be lifeless.” She muttered.

I kicked away another barrel, pulling her towards the steps once more. 

“You knew that.” I remarked.

“Obviously, I just don‘t get why it‘s named The Lifeless Abyss.” 

“Because no one survives a journey through. Thick with sirens and sea monsters, it’s a nightmare for all sailors.” I replied, lifting her up so she only had a few steps to climb.

“True...” She murmured, grabbing the ladder and climbing. I kept hold of her thighs, making sure she didn‘t fall; she was fast, and despite the violent movements of the ship, I took a moment to admire her derriere. Once she was out, I climbed up and shut the door behind us, wondering how much food would be damaged down there. 

“Go to your cabin.” I commanded her, making her turn to me in surprise. “No.” She replied as if I was saying something unbelievable. “Yileyna, this time, just listen.” I said, clenching my jaw. I get that she helped, but I couldn’t have her out there, not when we were probably already in the very sea where I lost two of the most important people to me. “No.” She turned stubbornly, about to go towards deck when my eyes flashed, my anger raging through me. I grabbed hold of her arm, spinning her around and against my chest. She was about to argue when I placed a finger to her lips. 

“Not this time.” I whispered, hitting the pressure point in her neck hard, instantly making her eyes roll before she fell unconscious in my arms. 

The ship lurched once more, and Ryan‘s voice came in my head. 

‘Theon! There‘s something attacking the ship! Could use you up here right about now!‘

A screeching roar of agony filled the tumultuous, stormy skies as the ship was hit wildly from the left. “Madelia! On my signal, burn it!” I shouted. “Fire on a ship!
