My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance Chapter 128

 

38. Ice & Fire YILEYNA.

His words echoed ominously in the dark chambers, as his tail hitthe back of my head.

This time I raised my hand, creating a shard of ice, and slammed it into his tail.

He let go, but it was only for a second before he was coming for me once more.

I sent several shards flying at him, but he deflected them with ease.

We were a blur of attacks, but he had size and strength on his side, while I had my elemental power and speed.

Speed that I felt was somehow being suppressed.

"No siren or wolf is welcome here." He spat.

"Your dead body will be an example for all! "You're wrong." I said coldly, as his tail wrapped around me.

This time I was ready.

Placing my hands on his scales, I let ice spread from my palms.

He instantly realised what I was doing and dropped me, his claws ripping into my back as he sent me flying into one ofthe stone pillars.

"Fuck." I growled, sliding to the ground as pain jarred through my back.

"You bitch!" He hissed as his tail thrashed around, but it was futile.

The ice that I had managed to wrap around a small portion of his body was unmovingand weighed him down.

Perfect.

I frowned, kneeling down and touching the ground, channelling my all into it and letting ice spread from my hands across the stone floor.

His eyes flashed as he roared, coming for me, but the moment he touched the ice, I let it ensnare him, unmoving asl focused on freezing his body.

"YOU WILL PAY!" "I'm afraid not." I whispered, feeling the strain as he fought against the ice.

Deep down within this cave, pulling on nature to help me was difficult, and I knew earth would do no good.

I was strongest when it came to ice.

I gasped when his hand narrowly missed me, clawing into my arm before the ice thatnow wrapped around the lower half of his body stopped him from coming any closer.

"You are starting a war, I will never forget this insult!" He hissed.

I stood up slowly, gripping my bleeding arm.

My entire body was aching.

"I do not wish to kill you, if I wanted, I could have killed your grandson." I looked

at the Naga before me, he didn't look much olderthan his grandson, but they aged slowly and could live up to five hundred years.

They were the species with the second longest life span, after the Fae.

His eyes narrowed and I tried to calm my heart, not wanting him to know the extent of how exhausted Iwas.

"Lies."

"I am not lying.

Don't you think we knew of the risk by letting them live? They would alert theentire kingdom, and we knew that, yet we didn't want to kill unnecessarily.

I'm sure your grandson must have told you who we are, and why we're here?"

His eyes narrowed and he looked at me sharply.

"I was told nothing." He spat.

I frowned, looking at him sharply.

"You didn't know I was coming?" That didn't seem believable.

"No, if you didn't realise, this place is encased with powers and seals.

I am kept in here.

How would I know what is going on up there?" Confusion flitted through me as hiswords sank in.

"You are the emperor." "By name.

I haven't come across any life source for nearly a century.

My eldest son rules, whilst I suffer in isolation in this tomb, as they wait for my death."

"Your grandson said you don't meet anyone."

"Of course,how can I down here?" He hissed.
