My Alpha's Betrayal: Burning In The Flames Of His Vengeance Chapter 51

51. Limits

The temperature dropped several notches, I felt it biting into my bones. “Ah…” I heard Charlene groan
from somewhere nearby, but I couldn’t locate her. “The temperature will continue to drop, until your
body will not be able to continue to function… Good luck.” “When will you stop?” Charlene asked
tensely. “Stop? There is no stopping, unless you find Madelia and are able to stop her yourself.”
Theon’s cold voice came.

I nodded in concentration.

Of course, they wouldn’t stop until we were near dead or passed out because they were trying to get
Charlene to break the seal on her abilities. Things became colder and colder until I felt it become
painful. They were lowering the temperature faster than I could focus. What do I do? A cry from
Charlene made my heart thump. I couldn’t see her, but I needed to find her! She sounded like she was
in agony. I closed my eyes, trying to sense where she was, listening to her heartbeat despite the cold. It
was becoming far more bearable than I had expected. Maybe it was easing up? “Princess, you need to
get up. There is no one to help you.” Madelia’s voice came from all directions.

I frowned, wait I hadn’t moved from my spot… did Charlene? If she hadn’t, then surely I could find
her…

Following my instincts, I moved forward in the direction I last saw Charlene standing before the fog had
settled in. “How is she moving?” Theon’s murmur came.

I frowned. Unlike Madelia’s voice, his came from the far side, so they both must be standing over there.

Where was Charlene?

“Charlene?” I called out.



A groan was my only response, but it was enough for me to pinpoint her location. I rushed over, almost
tripping over her, and realised that she was on her knees on the floor. I wrapped my arms around her
body, which was ice cold. She felt like a block of ice…

“You can’t help her, Yileyna.” Madelia’s voice came, and the temperatures dropped further.

“Come on, Charlene.” I whispered, my heart pounding.

“I… It’s so cold…” She whispered, her teeth chattering. “Fight it.” I urged her.

I was a little disappointed that Madelia wasn’t doing the same to me. Did she think that I couldn’t
handle it because I didn’t have a wolf?

I frowned, and turned in the direction I had heard Theon’s voice, knowing they were probably standing
together. Ready to snap at them, but I couldn’t do anything. Charlene needed to do this.

“You are going to be ok, come on, shift if you need to let it go. Take control. Don’t hold back.” I urged
her, rubbing her back.

Even her thick coat was cold to the touch. “Yeah, you’re right.” She muttered, groaning as I felt her pull
away and try to stand up. I still couldn’t see her, but I was glad she was trying to fight it. I backed away
and glanced in the duo’s direction, or where I thought they stood. “Can you guys turn it up for me too? I
can handle this.” I sighed. “How cold are you, Yileyna?” Theon asked.

“Not that cold, so please.”

A low growl made me tense when I realised Charlene must have shifted, or was trying to shift. I smiled,
glad she was trying her best, but then I heard a thud and Madelia’s sigh, followed by running footsteps.

“She’s out cold.” I heard her say.



“Don’t end it yet… focus it on Yileyna, keep going.”

“But… I don’t even know how she’s still standing.” Madelia muttered.

“Exactly why I want you to keep going…” Theon replied emotionlessly. I frowned. Why were they both
talking as if I wasn’t here? “Yileyna, are you ok?” Madelia’s voice came, and I heard something being
dragged along the floor.

“Yeah, I am.” I replied.

“Ok… I’m going to keep making it colder.” Her hesitant reply came.

I heard her whisper an enchantment as the temperature plunged lower. I just stood there, wondering
what I was supposed to do. My clothes began to feel stiff as a layer of ice seemed to coat them over.
However, it wasn’t affecting me… 2 “I can’t lower it anymore.” I heard Madelia’s strained voice come.

“Yileyna, follow my voice and come here.” Theon’s cold, sexy voice came. Frowning slightly, I followed
his voice.

“My word…” I heard Madelia whisper.

“Pass me the dagger.” Theon’s command came.

I paused hesitantly. What was he about to do?

I heard a rustle, and then I felt the whistling of the dagger coming straight towards me. It was in that
moment that I felt something inside of me, like a faint ripple of something in the pit of my stomach, and
then it was almost in slow motion. I moved my head sideways, allowing the dagger to whiz right past
before it hit the far wall behind me.



Madelia chanted something, and the room cleared, then once again I could see them. Both were
watching me calculatingly.

I frowned at them.

“I wanted the same amount of pressure as Charlene. I don’t have a wolf, but I can handle it.” I replied
with irritation: “I think I felt something.”

“You were able to handle far colder temperatures than the princess.” Madelia murmured. “I’m not a
water or wind elemental mage, yet those spells were extremely powerful. I used one first and then I
used two for you alone. That was incredible, Yileyna.” I frowned at her words, feeling confused. I
looked at Charlene, who was lying on the ground unconscious.

“Maybe the seal on her has sealed away some of her wolf’s abilities.” I said concerned. “Maybe, I do
think it’s a possibility considering she has no alpha aura.” Madelia said with a nod. Theon was watching
me thoughtfully, a hand to his chin. Our eyes met and he stepped closer, touching my neck, only for
him to jerk his hand away. “You’re fucking cold.” I didn’t feel that cold…

“Madelia, the princess’s training is over for the day, but if it’s alright with you, Yileyna and I will continue
for a bit.” Theon murmured, and although it sounded like a question, it wasn’t one. His eyes were fixed
on me with an interest that was not the usual sexual kind, in fact it unnerved me a little.

“Of course, just take it easy. I’ll report to the king that today didn’t go as well as planned.”

“Yeah, however, keep it at that. There’s no need to add anything more to it. We don’t want him to feel
angrier towards the princess, if he compares her to a wolf less woman.” 1 I frowned at him, feeling
suspicious. His words of concern for Charlene couldn’t be true, he was always hateful towards her…
