Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire novel Chapter 35

Read Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire Chapter 35 – These Emotions AZURA. Everything was a blur…

Fear, horror, panic.

Leo.

I didn‘t know how, but I wanted him to fix this. He seemed to be the type to always know what to do. 2

I was always strong and didn‘t need anyone, but was it weird that he gave me a sense of strength and safety.

When he took back his rejection, I felt my wolf come to life in a way, feeling a cool wave wash over me… Then when he told me to mark him… I knew it was for this baby, and that‘s all that mattered to me.

Our baby deserved to live.

The strength I had felt. The pain in my stomach had subsided, and then whatever he had injected into me, seemed to work. I had felt a similar sensation to how it felt when Kiara healed me in the past. A strong surge of coolness washed over me.

He looked guilty, the worry in his eyes so raw and intense that I didn‘t know what to say. The way his hand rested protectively on top of mine on my stomach… I was about to say something when Kiara had come, but when she tried to heal me… nothing changed and when she spoke, I understood why.

Leo had saved our baby by himself.

The sheer relief I had felt was unexplainable. My baby was safe.

Thank you, Goddess.

Thank you, Leo.

He had turned away, simply saying ‘good.‘ In that cold, emotionless voice of his. That cold exterior had returned with full force.

I now looked at Kiara and Raihana.

“How are you here?” I asked them.

“Your mate got Uncle to call Kia, and well, I was the teleporter here.” Raihana smiled, her brown eyes warm.

Kiara nodded as she caressed my hair.

“Leo called you to this pack?” I asked, uncertain of what to think. “Excuse us.” The doctor smiled politely, and all four women present left the room. “He did.” Kiara smiled. “For you.” My heart skipped a beat, but I remained silent.

I felt as if I wasn‘t in my body, feeling as if I was looking down on all of this. The most important thing was that my baby was ok. Our baby. “He sure has changed, I‘ve not seen him in years. He‘s lost his pretty boy looks.” Raihana remarked, making Kia smile. “It has been ten years since we saw him…” She said sadly.

Ten years… Yet he called them for me… Well, for our baby…

He did this for our baby, not me, and that‘s ok, because at least I know now that although he hates me, he cares for our pup… 2

There was a knock on the door, and I adjusted my gown before the door opened and there stood Marcel and Alejandro.

“Hey there.” Alejandro greeted me, he cupped the back of my head and kissed my forehead.

“How are you feeling, Azura?” Marcel asked.

I felt a little guilty that he didn‘t know I was pregnant with his grandchild…

“I‘m ok.” I replied.

“And so is the baby.” Raihana added as Marcel gave her a hug.

“I‘m glad to hear that.” He said quietly.

They made small talk, but I was unable to focus. The weight of the situation was heavy on my shoulders.

We had marked one another to save our baby… but… what about us as a couple?

It wasn‘t enough… It just… wasn‘t.

He didn‘t want me… But now that he knew I am carrying his child, would that change his mind? Because I didn‘t want that, I didn‘t want that to be the reason…

I just didn‘t

“Are you ok?” Kiara asked, running her fingers through my hair.

“Yeah.”

I had my hand on my stomach under the sheet feeling relieved. Seeing our little baby on that screen again, and Leo‘s reaction, it was a moment that I don‘t think I‘d ever forget.

I was a mess.

“Well, it‘s late, I think we should all head back to mine. You haven‘t come here in years, and it would be an honour to have you here. Azura, I think you are better off at mine too.” Marcel smiled gently at me, and I nodded. “Sounds like a good plan, I think I‘ll spend the night with my sister whilst you two can catch up.” Kiara stated, smiling at the men. . “Ah, sounds like a plan.” Marcel chuckled, although Alejandro didn‘t seem too keen on the idea, but he simply nodded, his eyes on his mate.

“I‘m going to head back. Thank you for the offer though, but I haven‘t even brought my clothes or anything.” Raihana said, with a toss of her long dark hair.

Marcel chuckled.

“Ah of course, how can I forget that you need your essentials. However, thank you for coming in time.” 1

“Obviously I do, I have a reputation to uphold. Also, there‘s no need to thank me, we weren‘t really needed, but I‘m actually glad to have popped down to see that a*s of a Rossi after years.” She shook her head before smiling at me. “Get him on a leash, girl, you got it in you to get him in line.” 2

She winked at me as Kiara chuckled.

“Thank you, Raihana.” I smiled slightly, and she gave me a nod before she chanted a spell.

A wave of power filled the room, before she vanished.

Being the eldest granddaughter of Endora, she was the one to inherit that magic. Witchcraft was passed down from eldest daughter to eldest daughter. Endora herself never had a daughter, so it went down to her first granddaughter. She was a powerful witch, and the Luna of a pack as well.

“I need to clean up a little…” I said my legs were covered in blood, and I felt sticky. “Yeah, sure, but I think the f*****g question is, how the f**k did you end up in hospital, to begin with?” Alejandro asked.

I froze mic

y blanket off and looked at them as all three turned to me.

Marcel frowned deeply.

“The Delta of this pack attacked her. That‘s all I was told by my Beta, who has him in a cell until Leo deals with him.”

“Leo, not you?” Alejandro asked, taking out a cigarette.

“Baby… not in the hospital.” Kiara reminded him softly. I got off the bed, the blood that coated my legs a reminder of what almost happened.

Emmet…

“F**k” He grumbled, shoving the pack back in his pocket. “Yes Leo, he is the one that deals with everything.”

“Yet you refuse to f*****g give him the title. I told you to do it, I don‘t care about the consequences. I’d like to see what exactly he does.” Alejandro told his brother as he went over to the box that Leo had left.

“I know…”

“What the f**k is this?” Alejandro asked. “That‘s what he gave me to heal.” I said before entering the adjoining bathroom, wishing I had something else but this tiny gown to wear… I didn‘t know how to feel, Emmet had known about my pregnancy which meant Jackie had told him… He had tried to hurt my baby on purpose. I won‘t forgive him for that… and I wanted to know what Leo was planning to do about it…

It was much later into the night. I had showered before I changed into some clothes that someone had brought from my apartment for me. I had only a little dinner, not feeling up to it after everything that had happened. We had talked to mama earlier, although we didn‘t mention what had happened, not wanting them to worry. I told Kia to fill her in when she was alone without Dad around.

I was now laying in bed in one of the bedrooms of Marcel‘s mansion, with Kia curled up next to me. She was fast asleep, her hand resting on my stomach protectively.
