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

17. 17. Their Punishment

THEON 

Three days had passed since Yileyna had vanished beneath the surface. Despite the worry I felt, I knew she was alive, she was out there and I would find her. 

Thad gone to Ailema to tell her to get in touch with Flynn, and how I needed to travel once more, but she had told me it will take a bit of time. As much as I hated to wait, I had no other option. 

I unwrapped my bandages, staring at the wounds that were simply not healing at all. They had been stitched as well but they were still raw and bloody. The stinging pain was a welcoming reminder of the internal invisible wounds I had inflicted on her... 

A Siren‘s attack in anger was far more deadly than those in a normal attack. The head healer had explained that their anger and rage create a poison that is excreted through their nails and lips. 

Hence how the name ‘the touch of death‘ came about. 

| cleaned the wounds, hissing at the stinging pain. Pain that was now beginning to spread to the rest of my body slowly 

I grabbed fresh bandages, wrapping them around before I glanced at my watch. 

It was past ten at night and there were a few things I planned to do... something that had been on my mind for far too long and I would do it before I left, just in case I didn‘t make it back. I wasn‘t the type of person who forgot or forgave those who had crossed me... 

I got dressed quickly, pulling on black pants and a black t–shirt, then putting on my coat, slipping one of my daggers into my pockets. This one blade would be enough to get the job done. 

I left the castle after applying a scent disguising charm, trying to hold back my aura as much as possible, keeping my head down as I made my way out into the city of Westerfell. The snow had melted and the ice was quite dangerous now, but it wouldn‘t remain for much longer, and once these paths were cleared, Dad would launch his plan... A plan that I had discovered yesterday when I did some prying of my own. 

A plan that involved him making sure every pack saw him as the king. There would be legions marching out to each pack and making them take an oath. That was the part that made no sense. People would swear their allegiance to their kind, but what kind of oath was he planning to enforce. 1 

It angered me that Dad had a lot more fucking planned that he hadn‘t even bothered to share with me. 

I wasn’t treated like his fucking son, but just a tool for him to use. i. 

Fuck that shit. 1 

My eyes blazed as I stuck to the shadows of the streets, that were far quieter than they used to be under the rule of Andres. Dad‘s men were everywhere... Pack members who I didn‘t recognise from two years ago. 

That was another thing… None of Dad‘s closest were here, they were all new, or people I had never really been close to. Where exactly did he get all the manpower he held? The Obsidian Shadow pack wasn’t as big as it is now, there was a lack of women and children, and although that could be because many were still not here, the question still stood. Where were these men from, that seemed to be strangers to me? 

Walking through the crowds, I felt detached. This place was never home until Yileyna and I spent that short period together at the cabin. Back then I used to look forward to the time I’d return home to her, seeing her waiting for me, and to hold her whilst I tried to get some sleep. Those were things I would always miss the most.
