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

44. The King’s Decision

YILEYNA

I opened my eyes and smiled, seeing Theon lying there; his eyes closed, his one arm under his head, the other one loosely draped over his chiseled stomach. Sexy, hot, and absolutely divine from every angle. I had a god in my bed, and I was not complaining, or more like he had me in his bed considering this was his cabin.

I looked around the room and smiled, we were finally home.

We had arrived late last night and had all retreated to bed. The journey back had taken eleven days. In that time, there had been three attacks on the ship, but to everyone’s shock, we had made it back without anyone dying or seriously injured. Everyone joked that having the Alpha king’s daughter on board must have surely brought us luck. 

It was obvious that life at sea was extremely dangerous, and in the last decade the number of ships lost at sea only grew, but it was clear that luck had been on our side for this journey.

I lifted my head, rolling onto my side so I could look at his handsome face, propping myself up on my elbow.

Goddess, you sure didn’t hold back when creating him… The urge to run my fingers down his jaw overtook me and, reaching up, I brushed my fingertips down his perfectly carved jaw, only for his hand to grab my wrist a moment later and his eyes opened. They met mine, and I smiled, slightly tilting my head to the side. 

“Morning.” I said softly as he removed his arm from under his head and pulled me on top of him.

“What are you doing?” He asked, his gaze raking over my body. I was wearing a cotton shirt of his that I had pulled on after last night’s shower. It had been rather cold, but to my relief, he hadn’t made a remark about me sleeping naked. I guess he must have been tired after that long journey. The shirt strained against my breasts, emphasizing the pinks of my areolas, making my stomach flutter as his eyes darkened.

“I was only admiring you.” I replied, my eyes darkening as I tugged my hand free from his hold and bent down, letting my hair curtain our faces. 

“I’m rather jealous that you were given so much attention when you were created.”

I kissed his neck, closing my eyes and cherishing the moment, knowing that it was one of those rare moments he seldom allowed me. I smiled as he yanked me back by my hair and I looked into his gorgeous eyes. See, so predictably Theon.

“Then perhaps you need to look in the mirror and realise what true beauty is.”

My heart skipped a beat, Theon never reciprocated my feelings for him that night. He never vocally said much unless we were in the throes of passion and he’d compliment me. 

However, when it came to my beauty, he didn’t hold back. It was obvious he found me very appealing and that made me happy, but deep down I wanted him to love my personality too. Love the person I was inside.

My eighteenth birthday had happened on the ship, yet only Charlene remembered it, and I had asked her to not tell anyone else. It hurt, remembering what I and Mom had planned for it. I was meant to have a party, a grand one, but… it wasn’t meant to be. I don’t kmow if Theon knew or not, but he didn’t mention it.
