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

26. Iyara YILEYNA

My heart squeezed at those words. Mixed with the sadness I felt for the young woman who had been murdered for loving him, I felt something else. Theon closed his eyes, and I could almost see him shattering, my own eyes stung with tears. I didn‘t like seeing him in pain, it was obvious he had been through a lot. 1

Cadoran continued as if he had wanted to spill the burden the weighed upon him.

“It was one of the final steps to shape you into the man you would become. Your father wanted you to become his mirror, his shadow, his–”

“I will never be him.” Theon cut off, his eyes blazing. “What else has he done, tell

me!”

“Aside from selling the women and killing those who disobeyed him, I know not what is true or what not, but there were rumours that he had a dark power in his grasp. Something that.”

“Arabella. We know. Anything else?”

Theon‘s anger was at breaking point, and he was fuelling his pain into rage, worrying me. “Nothing, I‘m sorry.” Cadoran‘s fear had returned, and he cowered away.

It was obvious he would do anything to survive, and deep down I knew if someone came here asking about us, he would also oust us.

“Thank you for your information. If anyone passes here asking for us, no matter who, you will not tell anyone.” I commanded, my alpha aura rolling off me, my eyes blazed as Cadoran paled, my order absolute.

“I–I would ne–never.” “Good.” I said quietly. “Come Theon.”

He didn‘t reply as we both left the small cabin, Cadoran was a man who wanted to live but cared for nothing more than himself. I wondered what kind of person could be happy like that, but at least he had told us something. Even if it was just to survive, we still got some answers. I was grateful for his answers, despite the dark revelations, it was, helping in opening Theon‘s eyes.

Iyara. His first love.

I wondered what she was like? The fact that his father had killed her had shaken him. “Let‘s shift, we will go to the dark Moon Pack.” He said, pulling his shirt off. I frowned, knowing he would rip open his wounds if he did so. “Theon, you yourself said.” “She‘s been sold, Yileyna! I need to find her.” Desperation and agony were in his voice. I couldn‘t refuse him, so I nodded.

The moment he unbuckled his pants I turned away, taking my clothes off, placing the necklace given to me by Lavina safely inside them and gathering them up, I shifted into my wolf. I felt her excitement when she turned towards Theon, her elation rushing through me. Although we had rejected one another, her feelings for him were there, just like mine. The moment he shifted, I flinched as his wounds stretched and tore, fresh blood dripping onto the floor.
