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

32. Limits

YILEYNA 

‘Obviously. There’s no way a wolf-less female would be worth anything more to me than to be an object to use and discard when I’m done.’

His words rang in my mind, and I sighed as I locked the door quietly behind me. I looked around my cabin, feeling exhausted, and dropped onto the bed. His scent still lingered. I closed my eyes, not wanting to think about anything, but I couldn’t stop the thoughts from swirling in my mind. At times, it was as if he cared… and then at others… I curled into a ball, taking deep, steady breaths.

I would not let it affect me.

A light knock on the door made me sigh.

“I’m trying to get some sleep. What is it?” I called out, really not wanting to talk to anyone, but I knew it was Charlene.

“Open up darling.” Her soft voice came.

Sighing, I got up, unlocking the door and getting back into bed. I heard the door open and Charlene sigh softly as she locked the door, then sat down on the bed. 

“I’m angry at you, Leyna.” Her soft voice came. I sighed, pulling the blanket down from my face and looked over at her, feeling guilty. 

“I know.” 

“Theon, want to share?” I sighed and sat up; this was a conversation I knew was going to happen at some point. 

“Not really.” I mumbled, keeping my arms hidden under the blanket. I didn’t need her worrying over my injuries.

 “Since when?” She asked quietly. 

“Since the festival.” I muttered, staring down at the blanket. I heard her gasp, and I looked up to see the wave of sadness in her eyes. 

“Since then and you didn’t tell me?”

“He didn’t want anyone to know,” I whispered, feeling ever so guilty. 

“But… not even me?” She asked, I don’t think I had ever felt worse. 

“I’m sorry, I truly am my queen.” I whispered.

 “When I told you he was interested in you, you vehemently denied it!” She exclaimed, as if suddenly remembering that and frowning at me.

“I know! But I’m sorry… Are you… Umm, are you ok with it?” I asked, knowing that she had liked Theon for ages too. “I know it’s stupid that I’m asking this now... After stuff happened…”

I felt awful.

“I want to say I am, I mean, I’m jealous too! But I’m just a bit concerned… Are you sure he’s serious? I don’t want you to get hurt.” She replied, ending hesitantly.

His words rang in my mind, and I lay back down. “We have an agreement, it’s just physical.” I replied quietly. Her eyes softened, and she sighed.

“You know, I would say go get it girl, and enjoy that piece of sexiness while you can, but why do I feel like you will get hurt?” She asked softly.

“I won’t, I know he considers me nothing more than trash.” I said, feeling my stomach twist at those words.

Then why was I allowing him to have me, when he couldn’t even respect me? I remembered our moment from down in the hold, the way he playfully tickled me and licked my foot. Do you do that to someone you consider trash? Maybe? I didn’t know.

Charlene moved over and wrapped her arms around me tightly as she slipped under the blanket beside me.

“Goddess, this bed smells of him!” She yelped.

I couldn’t resist the smile that cross my lips as I rested my head on her shoulder.

“Well, he did sleep here for a bit.” I giggled.

“Wait, did you do the deed in here?!”

“No, relax! We’ve only done it once.”

We didn’t do much on this bed, and what we did do, she didn’t need to know.

“Once? On the night of the festival?”

I nodded.

“Yeah…”
