My Alpha’s Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance Chapter 66

66. Losing Control

YILEYNA

I was so confused… I don’t know what happened, but I was unable to shake the king’s reaction from my mind. Why had he looked at me like that?

“I’m fine…” I whispered to Charlene, giving her a tight squeeze.

Where would i be without her?

She moved back slowly, concern and sadness in her eyes as she brushed a strand of my hair from my face.

“You look beyond beautiful tonight, so beautiful that even the moon does not compare.” Charlene complimented me, trying to cheer me up with a small smile on her face, and I tried to smile back. 1

This wasn’t what I was expecting. This wasn’t how it was meant to go.

Sure my dress was revealing but so were many other dresses here tonight, the only difference was mine was in the fabric and designs from Aerean Kingdom. The Fae kingdom Zarian hails

from.

“Thanks.” I said trying to regain control of myself.

I could still feel Theon’s burning gaze upon me. The intensity of it making me a little confused. We parted, and I gave Charlene’s hand a gentle squeeze as Ryan let out a low whistle. “I wonder if the king is ok, that was… strange.” He said, massaging his jaw.

“Don’t let Mom’s words get to you, I’m sure Dad just…” Charlene tried, but even she had no answer.

“I don’t think the Luna was wrong, what was your aim De’Lacor by dressing like that?” Theon spat coldly, his voice full of rage, resentment, and venom.

My heart skipped a beat, a flash of pain filling me as I looked into his amber eyes. Amber eyes that were so similar to the shade of the pendant I wore that I wondered if that was why I subconsciously kept it close? Because of the colour? A colour that reminded me of him… 1

I glanced down at the floor, trying not to let his words get to me.

You should know me better than that Theon…

Focus Yileyna, remember the plan.

“My only aim was to look good for my date, besides, I don’t need to dress in a certain way for men fall at my feet, right Theon?” I mocked, knowing I sounded horrible, but the urge to make a jab at his infatuation with me was far too strong for him to deny.

And as much as I hated behaving like this… He deserved a taste of how it felt to be mocked.
