My Alpha’s Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance by Moonlight Muse

YILEYNA

I watched him walk away, leaving me on the table, my heart thundering as I realised this was it. i knew it wasn’t going to be anything more than sex but to leave me the moment we were done.

I clamped my hands over my mouth, muffling the sob that left my lips. I don’t know what I was expecting… but I wasn’t anticipating him leaving like that. Why had he felt disgusted at the end? Why could I feel his anger? I pulled my legs to my chest, rocking myself as I tried to control the pain that was suffocating me. I felt even more alone than I had before I gave myself to him.

I cried softly into my knees, the sharp throbbing between my legs was a stark reminder of what had happened. A moment of pleasure with the man I had liked for so long… Was it worth it? Had it been worth it?

I didn’t know the answer to that… At that time, I couldn’t think of anything but the pleasure. It felt like a dream come true, and I couldn’t deny that I felt like I was in heaven. But now I just felt lonely and scared.

Stop wallowing in self-pity, Yileyna. I took a deep, shuddering breath, brushing away my tears.

You do not need anyone.

I slid off the table, my legs giving way, I fell to my knees. I grabbed the table edge, getting to my feet. My entire lower body felt heavy as lead, and pain throbbed in my lower regions.

Was it meant to hurt this much?

I looked at the table that contained a few streaks of blood and remnants of our sex juices. I’ll clean it after I shower.

I made my way to the bathroom and stared at my reflection in the mirror. I looked… a mess. My eye make-up was smudged, leaving black circles around my eyes from all the crying. My lips were bruised and my smudged lipstick only made it look worse. I realised it was bleeding a little too… As for my body, I was a canvas of marks and bruises.

I turned away from the mirror, stepped under the shower and turned it on. I touched my stomach where he had come all over and looked at my fingers, tears spilling down my cheeks and mingling in with the warm water.

It felt bittersweet. I just wish he hadn’t left like that.

I don’t know how long I remained under the water, but it was a long time. I soaped my body and washed my hair before I finally stepped out, feeling exhausted as I wrapped a towel around myself.

I returned to the living room and began to clean up the mess. My tears had all dried up but I was in a lot of pain now.

Was it meant to hurt like this?

I picked up my discarded clothes and placed them aside Once I was done with the cleaning, I staggered to my bedroom, just wanting to sleep First thing tomorrow, I will start packing and get out of this place

I jolted upright, feeling confused as I looked around. It was morning. The sun was shining through the window, accompanied by the sound of the birds and cockerels. I was naked in bed, the towel having come off. The pain between my legs made last night rush back to me, and I looked down to see dried blood coating my inner thighs. Theon had been huge; no wonder I was suffering now.

My heart skipped a beat and I sighed. No matter how sad I felt that he had left me, I couldn’t stop the fluttering in my stomach at the memory of last night.

He may have been cold and uncaring, but he knew how to fuck.

quickly grabbed a gown and wrapped it around my bare body before exiting my room. To my surprise, there were several of the Epsilon rank guards ripping the place apart.
