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

73. My Anger

YILEYNA

His words reignited that illicit desire within me. I used all my willpower to pull free, and turning, I faced him. “He commanded you as my bodyguard, which means your job is to follow me around wherever I go. Right now, I am going to go see Charlene, and then I’m going to visit Raiden. Mess up and interfere in what I do, and I swear I’ll tell the king that I don’t want you as my guard.” I replied, warning him. Theon frowned, glaring coldly at me. “Yeah, the only thing is the king said you are not to see Charlene until he has had a word with the Luna.”

My heart skipped a beat.

No. I needed to tell Charlene first, before the king.

“Well then, guess what?” I whispered, stepping closer to him, planning to throw him off guard, but he didn’t fall for it, frowning and grabbing hold of my arm and holding me at arm’s length.

I resisted the urge to roll my eyes.

Shame it didn’t work.

“What are you trying to pull?” I shrugged, pulling free and turning away. i “Nothing at all, just no one can stop me from seeing Charlene.” With those words leaving my lips, I broke into a run. “Yileyna! This is not a fucking game.” Theon growled.

“Well then, don’t try to stop me!” I shouted back.

I ignored the looks of contempt, disapproval, and irritation as I rushed through the halls, weaving through other people. Being smaller than Theon gave me the advantage, and I was able to get by a lot easier. “Yileyna!”

He was pissed, I could hear it in his voice. 2

I couldn’t stop now; I just wish there was a way I could mind link Charlene… I needed to find someone who would do it for me…

I rushed out onto one of the open balconies and grabbing the rail, I flipped over the edge and dropped onto the balcony floor below, quickly pushing the doors to the adjoining room open. I looked around, my heart thumping, I was in one of the side library rooms. I felt relieved, spotting one of the elder guards looking through some scrolls. He looked slightly curious to see me before it changed into one of suspicion.

“Sir…” I couldn’t remember his name. “Sorry for intruding in like this, I was looking for the princess.” “Hmm?”

“Could you mind link her and tell her Gamma Raiden is allowed to have visitors and to bring the daises?”

Bring the daises – a code we used as a child, I just hoped she remembered it and came immediately.

He looked at me for a moment, and I gave him the most innocent smile I could muster, batting my eyelashes, He cleared his throat, turning a little red before he turned away. “Ok, ok.” He went silent. I knew he was mind-linking her, but I also knew Theon would find me at any minute. “She said right away.”

Perfect.

“Thank you.” I almost exhaled in relief.

To finding out that they weren’t my birth parents? It didn’t change anything, but it still hurt to know my life had been somewhat of a lie. Did my parents know the truth? They still loved me for me… but I knew even if they knew that wouldn’t change, because they were the truest, most

Once again, he was completely cold and stoic. “You can get changed before we go to the hospital.” He stated, his eyes skimming over me. If I wasn’t feeling so upset inside, I would

He was still a little pale.. “Did the healer say anything?” I asked quietly. “No, just that he almost died.” Andrea replied. I saw her gaze flit to Theon, who simply stood there, arms crossed, that mask of indifference plastered on his arrogant face. “He hasn’t awakened yet.” I looked down at Raiden, gently
