YILEYNA We were heading back down the rocky path, when Theon grabbed my wrist, making me gasp as he turned my hand, palm upwards. "What is it?" I asked, trying to ignore the tingles I felt at his touch and how close he was standing. He frowned as he uncurled my fingers, before looking up at me after a moment. "I thought the silver jug would have burned you." "I don’t think it was fully silver, it only stung a little." I replied, my heart skipping a beat, and I couldn’t resist smirking as I looked up into those smouldering amber eyes. "Were you worried about me?" I added teasingly as I leaned into him, placing my free hand on his chest. My heart pounded as our gaze locked. His eyes narrowed and he wrapped a hand around my neck, making me gasp. I could see Madelia and Charlene watching us, and when Theon bent down, his lips brushing my ear, I tried not to sigh in pleasure. "No, I just don’t want a burned hand wrapped around my cock later." He replied arrogantly, before letting go

YILEYNA I opened my eyes and smiled, seeing Theon lying there; his eyes closed, his one arm under his head, the other one loosely draped over his chiselled stomach. Sexy, hot, and absolutely divine from every angle. I had a god in my bed, and I was not complaining, or more like he had me in his bed considering this was his cabin. I looked around the room and smiled, we were finally home. We had arrived late last night and had all retreated to bed. The journey back had taken eleven days. In that time, there had been three attacks on the ship, but to everyone’s shock, we had made it back without anyone dying or seriously injured. Everyone joked that having the Alpha king’s daughter on board must have surely brought us luck. It was obvious that life at sea was extremely dangerous, and in the last decade the number of ships lost at sea only grew, but it was clear that luck had been on our side for this journey. I lifted my head, rolling onto my side so I could look at his handsome fac

YILEYNA "I don’t think Dad told us everything." Charlene sighed as we walked down the hall. I nodded in agreement, our voices echoing in the halls. The windows were frosted, a sign that winter was truly here. "I agree." I replied, sighing. "That comment about finding you a man to handle the Alpha title…" "Yeah, it annoyed me too. Hey, wait, surely he’ll tell Theon the full story right?" "I'm guessing so, he loves him far more than me." I replied, rolling my eyes. The Alpha seemed to dislike me more and more as of late. "But Theon loves you! So, you can seduce the answers out of him and then share with me?" She nudged me, blinking hopefully. I stopped and planted my hands on my hips. "Seriously, my queen? Do you think Theon would spill?" "I'm sure he spills enough, what is a few small secrets?" She winked suggestively at me, and it took me a second to realise what she meant. My eyes widened as I blushed. "Charl!" She burst into laughter, and I shoved her lightly. "Ouch, y

THEON Last night still replayed in my mind, and although another day had come and gone, I couldn’t bring myself to return to the cabin. It had felt too… intimate. Against my better instincts, I had been unable to hurt her by walking out. That in itself should be warning enough for me. She was having an effect on me, far more than she should. I should have walked out last night, but seeing the hurt in her eyes… Fuck I wish I could say it was how ravishing she looked that made me stay, but it wasn’t. I didn’t want to see tears in her eyes, unless, of course, they were caused by when we were getting physical… Just the thought of her naked body made my dick twitch. Was I falling for her? Was I even capable of that? I had spent years trying to squash all my feelings, so why was she able to break the impenetrable shield I had placed around myself? "Here you go, handsome." The blonde who had just placed a fresh tankard in front of me said in a flirty tone. I cast her a cold glare, not

YILEYNAI regretted agreeing to training. I could barely walk straight, holding the fur coat tightly around me so it didn’t blow all over the place. It was beginning to snow, and I was sure a blizzard was headed our way. I had to drag my legs to move against the vicious winds.Theon was wearing a knee-length grey fur coat. It made me look him over whilst trying not to lick my lips in approval. He looked very regal and sexy, the coat only adding to the princely look he was displaying. His coppery hair blew in front of his forehead, yet he seemed unbothered by the cold. His breath was coming out in visible puffs.I think my wolf was really awakening because I didn’t feel as cold as I once would have. Another roaring bout of wind whipped against me, and I almost flew back from the sheer force. Theon’s arm wrapped around my shoulders, and he looked down at me with those eyes that seemed to burn into my soul. Even in the cold, he made me feel all warm inside.Once again, the words were on
