64. A Clash

In The Rain

YILEYNA

I slowly pulled away from Zarian, my heart thundering a thousand miles as I looked at Theon His words stung, but his anger was oddly satisfying. “Sorry about this.” I said to Zarian, feeling very aware of what I had almost done. My gaze dipped to his lips, and he leaned in, placing a soft kiss on my cheek.

“We’ll continue after our guest leaves.” He said with a wink. 4

I couldn’t resist the smile that crossed my lips or the fluttering in my stomach. I couldn’t deny that Zarian was extremely charming, even if he didn’t drown me the way Theon did…

My smile faded as I looked at the man that took my heart, then crushed it and tossed it aside, time and time again.

“What do you want?” I asked, crossing my arms.

I frowned, realising that despite the cold, he too wasn’t wearing a coat. Zarian and I hadn’t worn any due to our training, but why was Theon out here like this? His shirt was soaked, sticking to him like a second skin. The fabric was now sheer thanks to the rain, displaying his god-like body beneath. My core knotted as I glanced down at his pants, the visible bulge in his pants making my heart pound.

Why did he have this effect on me? I looked into his eyes, and he brushed his soaking hair back as fresh rain began to fall. “As I said, a word.” He replied icily the moment our eyes locked, his blazing with rage and fury. The murderous aura around him made me nervous, but I wasn’t going to show him that. “I can hear you. Talk” I replied defiantly.

His eyes flashed, and he looked at Zarian.

“Leave.” He said, his voice cold and full of venom.

“I’m afraid I’m not a werewolf, and as long as I abide by the laws of Astalion, I don’t need to listen to you.” Zarian replied with a smirk.

Theon’s eyes darkened, and something inside of me twisted. That look in his eyes was almost a silent threat…

“I’ll be fine… Could you wait here for me?” I said, not wanting Zarian to be the target of Theon’s anger. I had seen it before, and something told me Theon held grudges. 2 “I don’t fear him, beautiful.” Zarian replied lightly, and I didn’t miss the way Theon’s eyes flashed at his words.

“I know, but I won’t be far.” I said softly, smiling up at him.

I appreciated his help to train me, but I was not going to let Theon make life hard for him because of me. I walked over to Theon, stopping a foot away.

“What?” I asked icily.

He seemed to hesitate for a moment, as if wanting to say something before deciding against it.

“What the hell is the meaning of this?” He asked, holding up a soaking paper.

One that he had been crushing in his hand.

‘I don’t need your gift or charity. Keep your cabin – Yileyna’

Or have you forgotten how to read?” I asked airily. Despite the heavy rainfall, his scent was invading my senses. He consumed me, and deep down that terrified me… Why did I lose myself when he was near? “Where are you staying?” He asked, swallowing hard. “That’s personal. Who are you to me that I should share my business with you, future Beta oh I’m sorry, future Co-Alpha?” I spat coldly. “You know what’s funny? You are literally going from one woman and
