My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames of
His Vengeance chapter 147
57. The Coronation YILEYNA. The day of the coronation had arrived. I was wearing a sequined strapless silver dress, whichwas fully
embroidered, and encrusted with pearls and jewels on the bodice.
It was fitted to just above my knees before it flared out with a long trail behindit.
The embroidery was lighter on the skirt, with a full border at the bottom.
A matching cape stood to the side which I would wear once it was time to take my oath.
My make-up was glowing, and my hair was half pinned up with soft curls tumbling down my back.
I was wearing silver heels, as well as a large silver necklace and earrings.
Matching gloves reached my elbows, and I wore a few rings.
I was currently in the new royal quarters, a place I had chosen for Theon and myself.
It was towards the back of the castle, despite it not usually being the place preferred by royals as it was smaller.
However, the view was stunning.
Looking out over the gardens below and the coast in the distance had tempted me to choose this part of the castle.
Also...
it was somewhere Dad used to come to do paperwork, and because he didn't want me disturbing the othermen working, he would bring his
work here so I could play.
Today was a day that would be one that held many memories, but it was also Theon's last day before he went onhis journey of redemption.
The day had come too fast, but I knew before he could let himself enjoy life in contentment that he neededto do this.
A knock on the open door made my heart skip a beat, as his scent filled my nose.
I turned, and the two omegas lowered their heads to their other alpha before they left the room, giving US some privacy.
Theon's eyes ran over me as he slowly entered the room, closing the door behind him.
His eyes were blazing as they drank me up slowly, and I felt my cheeks heat up, knowing exactly what he was thinking...
"Theon...
Your thoughts and gaze are turning me on, and I'm needed in the throne room in a few minutes." I whispered.
Oh if we weren't werewolves with such a sensitive sense of smell, I wouldn't mind him pinning me right here and takingme hard..., He looked
incredible, in a black tunic, dark grey pants and black boots.
His sword was in his sheath, and despite the fact he wore no jewellery, he still looked like the king I knew he was.
He didn't need the title to be known as one.
"You look...
absolutely fuckable right now." He growled, his eyes dipping to my breasts.
I bit my lip, locking my arms around his neck, only for him to grab my waist and yank me against him.
"As do you." I whispered.
"I know that neither of US will be sleeping tonight." "Oh absolutely." He murmured, squeezing my ass as our eyes met and we kissed.
I could feel his hands tightening on my waist.
The urge to grab my hair was one he was resisting as he kissed me hard.
Sending off those euphoric sparks that always consumed me.
We broke apart, breathing heavily, and for a moment we simply remained close, our noses brushing, our lipsteasingly caressing each other,
letting off volts of electricity.
He reached up, removing the large necklace I was wearing and placing it down on the vanity table behind me.
"I told you, Little Storm, the only thing that I want around this neck of yours is my hand." Hegrowled huskily, wrapping his hand around my
neck, making me gasp.
"Understood, Alpha." I whispered.
Our eyes met once more, and at that moment, if we didn't hear footsteps, I knew we would have lost control.
My heart was still thumping when one of my advisors and Raiden approached, announcing that we were to go to the throne room.
The lace matching robe was placed around my shoulders by the Omegas, and then I took a deep breath,ready to do this...
"I, Yileyna De'Lacor, vow to protect the people of Astalion with everything I have.
To uphold the laws and regulations of the kingdom and its people.
To carry out justice and to always rule with a pure heart." I finished, as I held the staff of truth, and the sword ofjustice in my hands.
"I give you, Alpha Queen Yileyna De'Lacor, the true ruler of the middle kingdom.
Rise and bow to your sovereign." The high priest proclaimed, then everyone stood and bowed downto me.
"Long live the Queen!" The symphony began playing as I cast a quick glance around, proud to see the fae, Nagas, and sirensamongst the werewolves.
All my loved ones were here too...
They smiled up at me with pride and approval as I placed the staff and sword down.
I stood, bearing the huge crown upon my head, and made my way down the steps where Theon was waiting for me.
A faint ghost of a smile upon his face, he held his arm out to me.
I smiled, knowing this was not the kind of thing Theon enjoyed, but for me, he was playing the part so perfectly.
I slid my hand around his bicep, squeezing the muscle slightly as we walked out of the throne room and onto the balcony, where our people were awaitingus.
I was going to miss having Theon here for the next few months...
I pushed the thought away and smiled down upon my people.
The moment they spotted me, the sound of trumpets filled the air, the gong of the bell of Selene's temple rang loudly, and everyone brokeinto applause.
'Wave to your people, My Queen.' Theon said through the link, mockingly.
'Oh, is Alpha Theon teaching me etiquette?’ I asked teasingly as I raised my gloved hand, waving to my people.
'Not at all.' I smiled as I pressed myself closer to him, this was home; where Theon was beside me and my people safeand content.
'Thank you for making this possible, for helping rid this kingdom of evil.' I said softly as I turned and kissedhim on the lips...
It was evening, and we were all enjoying the banquet, drinking and indulging in the lavish feast that had beenprepared for all.
"I'm going to miss you." I said, holding Charlene's hands tightly.
I had removed my cape, along with my gloves, replacing the huge crown with a slightly smaller one.
"I shall too..." She replied, her eyes filled with sadness.
She looked breathtaking in a pale peachy nude dress.
It was a sequined net dress with an open front tulle skirt on top.
They would be leaving at dawn...
just like Theon...
No one knew about him yet, and I decided to leave it to Theon to tell them if he wanted.
Although I would feel lonely, I didn't want Hunter to delay returning any longer when he had already beenhere long enough, considering he had a pack to handle too.
"You know the way they act, I wonder if they love each other more or their mates..." Ryan smirked, makingboth Theon and Hunter look at one another, and then at US.
Charlene’s eyes widened, and I smiled.
"A sister's bond is far different than that of a mate's.
No one can replace Theon, and no one can place Charlene." I said, smiling as I kissedMy Queen's forehead.
"Charlene will always be my queen, and nothing will ever change that." "Ah, it is a bond that even I'm jealous of." Thea teased, "Butl'm lucky.
I have two amazing brothers..."
Thalia...
I could see she was remembering her from the look in her eyes.
Hunter put his arm around her, then Theon reached over and poked her cheek.
"Well, you have both of US as your sisters now." I said with a smile, and Charlene nodded in agreement.
"Yes, you do." She said, holding her hand out to her.
"I will have to remind myself not to get jealous of my sister-in-law." Hunter joked, drinking his wine.
"I don't think you need to worry.
Theon's already looking rather positively jealous." Raiden added with a small smile.
"Jokes aside, Yileyna is right; a sister's bond is not the same as a mate's, and no matter what life throws at US, we always remain strong." Charlene reminisced.
It was true...
So much has happened, yet we were stronger than ever.
"Yeah, remember the days you both were so infatuated with Theon.
Charlene more so I'd say." Ryan remarked, eating a pastry from a passing waiter's tray.
4 Silence fell over US as Hunter and Thea both looked at Charlene, who blushed.
"It was just a crush..." She mumbled, rushing over to Hunter, who looked surprised now.
They exchanged words through the bond, and he looked satisfied.
Charlene looked at US, rushing to explain herself.
"Once Yileyna and he went further, I instantly took him off limits.
I promise -" Hunter cut her off with a finger to her lips.
"It's fine, you're mine." He stated before pulling her close and kissing her.
Although he said it was fine, it was clear he was feeling possessive.
Thea giggled.
"Oh damn, poor Hunter." She giggled.
"They are both handsome, so I think both girls are lucky." ’'Seriously Ryan, can you stop spilling everyone’s secrets?" Raiden remarked, shaking his head.
"I didn't spill the fact you and Yileyna kissed..." He trailed off when Theon's eyes flashed, cutting him off.
Thea shrugged.
"I already knew that." She murmured, wrapping her arms around Raiden's neck.
He bent down, kissing her lips as Ryan shrugged.
"Great." He said, unbothered.
"So how about the fact you have been meeting a certain red-headed siren pretty often, to the point it's not even in the White Dove..."Theon remarked as he pulled me close, wrapping his arm around my waist tightly.
2 My eyes widened in surprise as I realised who he meant.
Ariella.
Ryan simply smirked, choosing not to answer.
"Ooo..." Thea giggled.
"So is a Siren fun?" Hunter teased.
"Ask Theon." Ryan shot back and all eyes turned on US.
"Let's not discuss our sex life." I said sweetly, blushing.
Whilst Theon simply raised an eyebrow.
"Who said they were talking about sex?" He asked, smirking mockingly, making my cheeks darken as the rest laughed.
"So tell us, do you like to do it in siren form?" Thea asked in a loud whispered, getting a shocked look from Charlene butmaking Hunter and Ryan snicker.
"She'll tell us in private." She mouthed quietly to Thea, although everyone heard.
'Oh, will you?' Theon asked through the link, kissing my neck.
'Not everything, don't worry.
Some things are just for the two of US...' I whispered back through the mind link.
'But you know...
Do you want to fuck me in siren form?' He moved back slightly, his eyes searching mine, but he didn't reply, simply kissing mehungrily.
I think I just got my answer.
"So, Prince Theon-" Thea began, only for Theon to glare at her.
"I will be referred to as Alpha.
Prince is merely a title I will hold but not use when I marry Yileyna, and that isn’t fora while.” “Yes, don't tease or he'll never marry me." I
pouted.
"Since he’s getting everything already, what incentive does he have to marry her?" Ryan asked.
"It's not that, it's the title of Charlene was cut off by Ryan and Thea.
"Prince Theon." They cackled, making me sigh.
"Cut it out." Theon's voice was low yet dangerous, and both fell silent.
I guess some things never changed...
"Ah, the newly crowned queen." We turned as Zarian came over.
In all his lavish clothing and a crown upon his head, he looked like a true prince.
“Your highness, it's a pleasure to see you here." I replied equally formally, before we both chuckled, and he metme with a kiss on the hand.
He turned to greet the rest, and I looked around the room, feeling content.
We chatted for a while before I looked at Theon.
I didn't say a word, simply leading him to the dance floor....
The party had died down, and Theon and I had made our way to the roof of the Moon Goddess's Temple.
We simply sat there, side by side, holding hands.
I looked over to the sea in the distance, the waves were crashing against the shore,and I sighed softly.
"Do you miss it?" Theon asked quietly.
"Being near the sea, or onboard a ship?" "Mm, yes.
I have always been drawn to the sea, but my place is on land." I replied quietly.
"One day, let's go on a cruise, and visit several kingdoms, not as Alpha Queen but just Theon and Yileyna.” He suggested, making myheart
skip a beat.
I looked up at him.
"Do you think we can do that?" I asked softly.
"Absolutely, when I return...
We will have plenty of time.
I'll make sure you enjoy life to the fullest, just like your father wanted you to." He promised quietly.
My heart ached slightly, but it wasn't painful like it once used to be.
"Yes...
let's do that, Theon." I whispered, looking up at him with the spark of excitement igniting within me.
"Come back quick, ok?" He nodded.
Bending down, he kissed my lips deeply.
"I plan to, and when I do, I won't leave you again." He whispered seriously, and I knew he would hold true to his words.
“Write to me, ok?" I whispered, trying to hide my pain at the fact he was leaving.
"I will, at every stop, let you know where I will be next.” He promised.
I pouted and nodded.
"Good, because if you take too long, I will need to find other men to please me, you know my desires can not be satiated easily.” I frowned,
althoughit was partially the truth.
I would never cheat on him, but I hoped the threat scared him a little.
He didn't reply, and I looked up at him only to be met with a dangerous look, his eyes blazing as he leaned over, grabbing my throat justthe
way I liked, sending an intense jolt of pleasure to my core.
"No one will ever touch you, Little storm, aside from me.
Do I make myself dear?” Of course, my possessive Alpha.
"'NO.
Maybe you need to be a little clearer, Prince Theon." I whispered teasingly, raking my claws down his shirt, tearingthrough the fabric as I
licked my lips hungrily.
His eyes flashed as he pushed me to the ground.
“You are going to get a lesson, and a fucking punishment for calling me prince." He growled, making mypussy clench.
Yes please.
Oh I knew this was going to be one hell of a lesson...
