Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire novel Chapter 45

Read Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire Chapter 45 – Letting her Misunderstand LEO.

“So that’s him?” Song asked Azura quietly.

“Yup.”

“Ok Azura, he’s so-”

“Don’t, I bet his big ears are listening in.” Azura muttered.

I was outside the hospital room whilst they talked inside quietly, but yeah I could still hear and see them with the door slightly ajar. Azura was sitting next to her friend with her arms around her.

We had gotten back pretty fast, I had Azura with me and I knew instantly why she had felt that pain. In the fight, I had overexerted myself, and she had——gv—, —– vasarona felt it… Luckily, she had regained consciousness pretty quickly before we even got back to pack grounds.

Since then, she has been watching me intently, almost calculatingly…

I had to f**king make sure that didn’t happen again, for her sake…

But then what about overall?

The bottom line was I’m f**king dying, and that pain would only increase as the days and weeks passed by.

The doctor had checked her over and she was fine. As for her friend, she had been tended to and was in good care, although she’d be hospitalised for a few days.

My injections weren’t really ideal to use on a human… however I had recommended they give her a very diluted dose to see if it helped. If it didn’t help, it didn’t, but just trying the small amount held no harm.

“So, what are you going to do now? ” Jax asked, hands in his pocket as he stood across from me.

“Regarding?” I asked, walking away from the hospital room and down the corridor.

“Regarding our Luna and her friend?”

“Song Daquin is welcome to stay until she’s healed.” I replied shortly.

..”And the Luna?”

“Stop calling her that.” I muttered.

“Until she joins the pack?” Jax persisted.

Why the f***k was he so pushy?

He was the only one I would be seen around the pack with. Not everyone knew how close I was to the six, and I preferred it that way. We’d occasionally go for drinks on a night out, but lately, everything has just felt so f***king busy.

‘I don’t f**king know.’ I replied, ignoring the two nurses who were giggling and staring at us.

Why were most women so f***king annoying?

‘Can I say for once Schurke Wolf doesn’t have the answer?’ Jax’s reply came as we stepped out into the dark I took out a cigarette and lit it, not replying to him and instead taking a long drag.

‘Did you place the body where I asked?’ I asked the others through the link.

‘Yeah, treat it as if he’s alive.’ Ace’s voice came.

‘I’m not going to take risks.’ I replied frowning deeply, the link open so all seven of us could converse.

‘What are you worried about?’ Jin asked quietly.

I frowned, my mind wandering back to the drive home, as I stared at the stars in the sky…

(FLASHBACK)

I slowed down, feeling as if I was missing something as I turned a sharp corner.

I didn’t feel at ease, and it wasn’t Azura…

‘Shane, Li Sheng, change of plan, do not bring the body inside of the pack… keep him in the underground cells at location 12.’

‘Roger.’ Shane said instantly.

‘Understood…” Li Sheng’s reply came.

‘Why?’ Jin asked.

‘Just do it. I don’t want that… thing inside this pack. He isn’t a werewolf; I know that much. Besides those bullets were made to kill werewolves instantly… he survived after multiple shots. I know he’s dead but… just keep him the f***k locked until I run his prints and do some tests, then we’ll dispose of the body.’

Seeing the way he moved, even after I shot him point blank with a bullet that should have killed, didn’t go unnoticed… he was still able to move… So what’s the guarantee that the other bullets worked?

I looked over at Azura, who was asleep, her chest rising and falling, and ran my knuckles down her jaw.

I wasn’t going to take any chances

(END OF FLASHBACK)

‘It was too easy… I’ve seen Azura fight Emmet, she’s good, yet she didn’t stand a chance against Judah … So how did he go down so easily?’

Because Schurke Wolf beat his a*s?

Ace offered.

‘Isn’t Sera wanting you home?” I countered.

‘Always, but she’ll be fine. She knows I’m working. Either way, I guess it’s better to be safe. Shall we just burn him and get that sh*t over with?’

‘Burning isn’t always the answer, especially if Leo doesn’t think he’s a werewolf.’ Dan reminded him.

“And the tests he wants to run.” Shane added.

‘We’ll figure out what he is. Dan I want you to begin running some tests, but keep him bound, and I want at least four of you there with him.’ I ordered.

‘I think you are being too paranoid, Leo.’ Jax added thoughtfully.

‘Na… you can never f***king be too careful. Think smart.’ I frowned.

‘Like you always do?’ Ace’s coo**y voice came.

I knew he meant the entire situation with Azura, but that sh(t was totally different… I know I will have to talk to her sooner or later and I can’t avoid her forever…

The way that ba***rd had talked to her had made my blood boil. I hated the ba****rd with everything I f**king had.

‘He’s under surveillance and we have six men watching him. You can relax. If we see or think anything is out of the ordinary, I will alert you.’ Li Sheng said, currently he was watching him as I wanted one of the six to constantly be on alert. That location was close enough to be within linking range.

‘Good. I’ll come to check on him tonight if I get time, I need to go pay a visit to Emmet too. Think we all need to get some rest for now. Jax, are the preparations for the drugs to be traded with the buyers ready?’

‘Yes… regarding that, I was meant to tell you Web is one of the buyers. He went through another, but it’s definitely him. Do you want me to cancel it?’

I frowned, I had killed his son for him trying to double cross me… why would he do business with me, even if the drugs were sought after, he definitely had a reason and I was certain that was to get revenge.

No. Let him be, we’ll keep an eye on him.’ I replied.

Johann Weber, also known as the Web was a forty-nine-year-old mobster, one who I hated f***king dealing with. That was the type I f***king wanted dead… His son who I had killed, was worse than his old man, if that was even f***king possible. A rapist and a sick ba****rd. Although I put his death down to Johann Weber trying to double-cross me, I got rid of him because he was sick. There were things I could look past, but someone like Harry Weber didn’t deserve to f***king live.

Did you send the money to the orphanages, I asked?’

‘Yup, 50k donated to each orphanage in the county by an anonymous benefactor.’ Jax replied, as he walked beside me.

“Good.’

‘You’re a good person Leo, you just need to let it all go… Just ease up and remember you deserve some of that happiness too. I get that you want others to be better off… but I mean, not everyone cares about humans as you do.’
