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

Chapter 141

51. Under The Stormy Skies YILEYNA.

Pleasure erupted within me, and with it, a blazing surge of power rippled through me. I gasped as the bond was finally completed, and intense sparks like lightning coursed through me. A powerful aura swirled around us as he held me, one hand twisted in my hair, the other tight around my waist. Despite the ice dome shattering, the energy around us deflected everything, keeping them both at bay. I closed my eyes, relishing in his touch. My love..

He extracted his teeth, licking the area, sending a jolt to my core, before placing a soft kiss there. Moving back, I looked into his eyes that were so much like mine... simply shades of reds golds and oranges. Like a burning sunset... “It‘s time.” He whispered, and I nodded.

“Let‘s do this.” 2

“Time to send you back to hell where you belong.” He growled, raising his hand as Arabella managed to destroy the dome entirely.

The power that had swirled around us vanished, but we were both radiating energy. Mines was a silvery blue, whilst Theon‘s was an orangey amber. This time when we both raised our hands, despite Arabella‘s chanting, we didn‘t even budge, as if the darkness itself was evading us. The air was full of broken pieces of stone, yet it did nothing to us. 1

“For all you have ever done.” I said softly, looking into the eyes of a being who had no compassion.

She was born from evil and knew only evil. I never wanted to take a life, but this was one that we had to. “I will never die as long as evil lingers.” She hissed, looking from Theoden to Theon, but it was too late.

As one, we channelled everything we could into it.

The wind was whirling in the sky, lightning flashing dangerously, and the rain was pouring down, but all I focused on was pushing against every limit I had... When our power surged through the air, blindingly hitting Arabella in the chest, I could feel the ground tremble with the sheer force of it.

Even with her shield, there was nothing she could do. Fear and shock were clear on her face as she screamed in pain. “Master!” She shrieked as her dome of darkness that covered the courtyard began weakening. “Useless.” Theoden spat at her, as he raised his sword, striking the aura that swirled around us like a barrier, with no result.

For a moment, I felt pity for the one whom I shouldn‘t pity, but it was only for a moment. Her

master didn‘t care for her. She dropped to the ground, struggling to fight against us, and even Theoden‘s armour of darkness was dissipating.

A dagger to the forehead.

I pulled the dagger I had strapped to my thigh and focused on the kneeling woman. I threw it with extreme precision, just like I had practised for years. A throw that Dad would have truly been proud of... It struck her in the centre of her forehead, and her gaunt eyes widened, before her skin began to turn black

“No... Master... I failed...you...”

Her body fell forward until she became a pile of ash. The dagger fell to the ground as Theoden roared in a rage, about to attack when Theon grabbed him by the neck and threw him to the ground.

“He‘s mine.” He said, his voice was so cold, reminding me of the night he had turned upon us.

His vengeance.

I thought he‘d pick up his sword, but he didn‘t. I could feel his pain through the bond, his anguish, his regret, his sadness, and above all, his rage...

“You will pay for all you have done.” He hissed, his claws came out and he dug his hand into Theoden‘s stomach, but instead of ripping his insides out, he twisted his hand, making Theoden roar in agony. “Theon! I taught you... better!” He grunted. “You destroyed it all, and I was a fool to believe it.”

I could feel the pain in his voice, even when Deliana dropped down beside me as rain poured down on us, Theon didn‘t even spare us a glance.

“You‘re safe.” She breathed, hugging me tightly.

I hugged her back, and for a moment, Mom and Dad came to mind. Hidden by the rain, I allowed my tears to fall. For a moment, time seemed to stand still, as I rushed to Zarian‘s side with Deliana. Luckily he was alive, Deliana removed her top, wrapping it around his bleeding abdomen.

Zarian raised an eyebrow, a small smirk crossing his lips. “If I‘m going to die, this wouldn‘t be a bad way to go.” He smirked, making Deliana raise an eyebrow at him. 2

“Have you not seen boobs before?” She asked coldly. 2

“None that are...” He flinched as Deliana tied his stomach painfully tight. I stepped away, he was in good hands, and obviously with a good view. 1 I turned to see Theon breaking or crushing every bone in Theoden‘s body one by one, his aura swirling around him. “For Mom... Thalia.”

He kept listing them all, Iyara, Thea, me, our packs, the kingdom... Theoden gargled blood as Theon kept plunging his hand into him and began ripping his body to pieces, limb from limb... He was leaving the torso to last... to prolong his death... The scene was horrifying, and I realised Theon was no longer aware of his surroundings. Even when shouts of victory filled my head through the mind link and from around us, he didn‘t stop. I saw him gouge Theoden‘s eye out.

I couldn‘t breath, I could feel his pain, it was so intense... How had he kept all of this inside?

“For looking at her with evil thoughts in your mind.” He hissed, before burning the eyes in his hands. 1 His heart was thundering, his aura swirling around him to the extent that rain was not even touching him.

“Theon...”

Deliana gave me a nod as I walked toward Theon. He had pulled his guts out. The only thing left in his body was his heart.

He had tried to prolong his death... But now, as Theon kept attacking Theoden, his life was fading

“And this... this is for me.” Theon whispered before he ripped his heart from his chest, letting out a menacing growl of rage that rang through the air. “Theon.” I whispered, dropping to my knees behind him and wrapping my arms around his shoulders tightly. My own tears stinging my eyes. I could hear his thundering heart, his pain, his hands shaking. I pressed my lips to his jaw, sending a rush of sparks and calmness through him. “He‘s gone. He won‘t hurt anyone anymore.”

His heart continued to pound violently, but he was calming down. His aura vanished and we stilled. The sound of the pouring rain was loud in our ears as it now soaked us both.

We stayed like that for several moments.

I vaguely noticed Deliana moving Theoden‘s body pieces from in front of us. But when the sound of shouts and talking reached our ears, Theon tensed and slowly unlocked my arms from around him. 2

Exhaustion settled in and I was suddenly aware of the pain in my body. We were both tired, with cuts and bruises.

He stood up, pulling me up with him, and although I didn‘t want him to let me go, he stepped away, looking at his hands. The rain washed the last of the blood from them. The signs were gone, but the

memory wouldn‘t.

“You did it.” Hunter‘s voice came and we turned.

There he was supporting a bloody Gamma Henry, with some cuts and bruises himself.

The Naga prince Darshian, came holding the bodies of two dead men that were of Theoden‘s, throwing them down. Earendor came next. Thea, Raiden and several Alphas who were at the gathering all stepped forward, as Zarian got to his feet, clutching his stomach.

Theon reached up, and for a second I thought he was going to caress my cheek, but he instead pulled out the last two pins holding my hair up and let it cascade down my back “We have won.” Deliana said with pride.

“The kingdom is yours.” Zarian added, looking at me with a smirk.

“Thank you, all of you, for your help and sacrifices. I will never forget what you did for us. Astalion will always be ready if ever any of you need me.” I vowed softly. They nodded as Zarian and Deliana smirked slightly.

“We‘re free.” Thea whispered as she wrapped her arms around Raiden, who kissed her forehead.

Hunter cleared his throat, making several people present chuckle.

“She‘s marked.” Thea added pointing at me, making Raiden place a finger to her lips. She pouted, nudging him. Oh, they truly were perfect together.

I looked at Theon, who was standing silently staring at the dark sky that was pouring down. I knew it was washing away the blood that coated our streets... He sensed me watching and looked into my eyes, with those burning amber ones that made my heart beat a thousand miles.

He stepped back and went down on one knee, taking my hand in his, and raising it to his lips.

My heart hammered as he didn‘t break eye contact and kissed it softly, making my breath hitch.

“Kneel to your sovereign.” He said clearly, his voice thick yet steady, sending pleasure to my core at how sexy he sounded.

My heart leapt when he lowered his head to me.

A man who never bowed to anyone... A man who was dominant by nature, yet a man who loved me so deeply that nothing else could compare. “To our queen.” A murmur followed as every werewolf present kneeled before me. The royals of other species lowered their heads in respect, but I looked at the man who was leaning before me. “Rise.” I commanded softly. He did as I said, and I almost smiled, about to comment on it when his hand snaked around my waist and he yanked me towards him.

‘I‘m only obeying this time. Don‘t go getting ideas.‘ He said through the link. 3

Our emotions were a storm, and I knew he was fighting himself, trying to hold back, but we were struggling. I leaned up and was about to kiss him, when he placed a soft kiss on my forehead instead and let go of me suddenly. A flicker of confusion filled me but when he smiled slightly, I felt at ease, pushing the doubt away.

“Yileyna!”

I turned, a smile lighting up my face as Charlene ran towards me, clearly having rushed to get here. She flung her arms around me and I hugged her tight, fighting my own tears.

“My Queen.” I whispered.

“No, you are MY Queen.” She whispered, laughing weekly. “You are going to be an aunty.” My eyes flew open as she whispered the second part ever so quietly. So many emotions went through me, but I was

unable to put them into words, so I simply hugged her tightly.

“Ah, she was bursting to share that with her sister.” Hunter remarked.

“Not jealous, are you?” Thea teased. “Actually, I am.” Hunter said with a smirk as he walked over to us and pulled Charlene into his arms for a tight hug.

The mood instantly lifted, and suddenly I felt lighter.

Everyone looked relieved, and although we had a lot of work before us, I just wanted to cherish this moment. I scanned the area, only to realise Theon was nowhere in sight. 8
