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

18. Broken Memories

YILEYNA

Theon had takenmeio the hospital and had unashamedly told the healer I had sex the night before So here I was with a mug of hot milk as Healer Shayna looked at me She sat on the edge of the bed, her hands clasped together, concern clear in her warm brown eyes

“Was it consensual? From my examination, it seemed it was rather brutal”

“Yes, it was.” 1 replied quickly, blushing at her question. She nodded, her curly blonde hair bouncing when she nodded. “Good. And are you on contraception?”

“No…”

“Would you like a contraceptive charm?” She asked.

This was humiliating… but I remember Mom telling me that when the time came to make sure I got one…

“Um, yes please.” I said, staring down at the steaming mug.

“I will have one prepared for you. Just come back monthly to have it renewed. Do you have any items you would like the charm to be put on?”

I looked down realising I was still wearing Mom’s rings I had picked out last night. “I have this.” I said, my stomach sinking at the thought of everything most likely being ruined back home…

She nodded.

“That will be perfect as long as you plan to keep it on all the time.” She said. “Otherwise, you can bring a necklace or bracelet from home, I work until nine in the evening.”

‘The only thing that looks good wrapped around your neck is my hand.’ Theon’s words echoed in my mind and I felt my cheeks heat up.

“No necklaces, this ring is fine.” I said, taking off the thin band with small gemstones along the entire length.

She took it and stood up.

“Drink that up and I’ll have this ready for you.”

I nodded and she left the room, leaving me with my thoughts.

Why had Theon come back this morning? Did he come to strip the place like the rest? Maybe…

Did Charlene know? I doubted it…

I sipped the milk, thinking of everything I needed to do, no more wasting time. No more pitying myself, I will do what I needed to. Thanks to the healer, I felt much better. I was ready to get my life moving.
