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

30. Together In Silence YILEYNA

I gasped for air, breaking away from him, my heart pounding and my head feeling dizzy. I had craved for his kiss, and now it was as if he didn‘t want to let me go. Even as I sucked in some oxygen, his lips were on my neck, kissing and sucking on it as if wanting to claim every part of me. He had one hand under my top, stroking and kneading my skin.

I whimpered in pleasure, but I was also worried. Something had happened to Theon, his heart had been beating wildly. “Theon? What‘s wrong?” I whispered, kissing his jaw, running my fingers through his hair as he sucked on the corner of my neck where one’s mate’s mark would go.

He tensed, freezing just as his lips touched my ear. His hand that was tangled in my hair, now yanked me back painfully, making me hiss in pain. My heart thudded when I saw his burning gold embers filled with rage.

His gaze flicked to my hair, and I don‘t know what it was, but he just seemed to get angrier as he twisted a few strands in his fingers.

“What a disgusting colour.” He murmured before shoving me off his lap and onto the bed.

My heart squeezed painfully as he got up, his words rang in my head and I felt my eyes prickle.

I don‘t know what happened… but the anger and hatred in his eyes killed. I don‘t know what I had done, but he was looking at me with pure hatred.

He cast one last look over me, his eyes snapping to mine and for a moment I thought I saw a glimmer of regret. Then he turned and left, the door slamming shut behind him. My eyes stung, but I refused to cry. “You‘re stronger than this...” I told myself slowly, lying down on the bed. The narrow bed now felt far too big and empty. The happiness I had felt having him here had just been pulled away.

No, I‘m not going to sit here and feel sorry for myself. Something had happened, and I needed to know.

Standing up, I left my room, not caring that Valentin and Patrick were watching me keenly as they stood outside of Charlene‘s cabin. They could probably see the marks that covered my neck, but I didn‘t have time for this right now. 2
