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

Vengeance Chapter 122

 

 32. Troubles of the Heart CHARLENE. It was two nights later, and tomorrow we were splitting into two groups. At dawn, Yileyna, Hunter, and Theon would bead toNaran, and I would travel forward with the rest.

I was terrified of what may happen to them, but I had to remind myself that Hunterknew the Naga better than anyone and has spent his life fighting them, and Yileyna and Theon were powerful too.

Igazed up at the full moon as I sat beside Yileyna and Thea.

I had gotten to know Thea a little better, Hunter and Theon’s sister was lovely.

Despite everything she had gone through, she had the will of fire flowing within her veins.

Last night she had awoken screaming, it had taken Theon and Yileyna both to snap her out ofit.

She was taking it worse, not wanting Theon to leave her again, and I didn’t blame her.

Hunter's words from earlier when she wanted to go with them to Naran now returned to my mind, as another thought came to me...

(Earlier that evening) "Please Theon, let me come with you, I don't want to lose you again." Thea begged.

It was just the five of us, but Theon was beginning to hesitate, and I was certainhe would give in.

"Thea, it's dangerous." "I'm strong, Theon! I can do this, I don't want to be leftalone." I exchanged looks with Yileyna, feeling sorry for her.

"Thea...look-” "She can't come." Hunter cut in, his expression hard.

"What?! Why not?! I'm strong, I have learned to fight!" "You're my blood and Naga do not forget, the fact that the same blood runs through our veins isenough for them to want to shred you apart." Hunter's serious reply came.

"Yileyna is the only one of the three of us that will be safe, due to their fear of Sirens.

We cannot risk your life, Thea." "But you and Theon will be there...

I don't need saving, but if-" "He's right Thea, you're not going, end of discussion.” Theon said coldly.

(End of flashback) "Yileyna...

Do you think the Napa that attacked Theod when we found him, was because of their grudge against Hunter?"

Shelooked at me sharply, and her beautiful multi coloured eyes widened, before she nodded.

"That makes sense..." "And then...

The fact you injured it, and it did back away...

Could it have sensed your siren side?!"Texclaimed.

"Wow, I never even thought of it...but I think you could be right." "I think I probably am, for once."

"Not foronce, you often are." Yileyna smiled as she leaned her head against my shoulder.

She held Thea's hand and I smiled, loving how she was making her feel involved.

I can see us having an excellent bond, Thea, her two brothers, Yileyna and I...

"I feel...agitated." Thea sighed, "I can't believe it's the full moon tonight..." 2 "Same..." I replied softly.

Yileyna looked at us and tilted her head.

"Hmm, I feel at peace..." She whispered softly.

"It's almost like the calm before the storm..." The feeling in the air was odd, and I felt restless.

Maybe with everything that was to come, I felt like this...

"Mates...So do you think you and Theon could be mates? Wouldn't it be nice, just like Charlene and Hunter?" Thea asked her.

My heart skipped a beat, and I looked down.

Mates...we weren't fated.' "Theon...we were mates...but we rejected one another." Yileyna said softly.

I saw the pain in her eyes, and I realised even though they had rejected one another, she was still hurting...

"You love him, he loves you...Why? Is it because of Theoden?" Her eyes flashed, and Yileyna looked down.

I know why...because he was responsible for her parents' death...

"It's quite complicated, but if they are to be, I'm sure they'll figure it out.
