Alpha Loren novel Chapter 67

November 16th

Leo's POV:

It was far past midnight by the time she finally fell asleep and I could lay next to her gently stroking her soft blond hair as she breathed gently in a heavy slumber. 

She'd never admit it but I knew I'd scared her earlier.

I could tell by the way her eyes fixated on the blood and how she couldn't look me in the eye for long, desperate to get away from me.

Part of my wolf had wanted to comfort her.

Because I wanted to see her happy but until she stops threatening my reputation, I had to make her fear me. For everyone's benefit.

After the delay for her to officially become my Luna, her stunt at the ball, the flyers and the release of half the junior institute, rumours had been spreading and my competency questioned.

Only my father had dared to voice it so far but I knew many of my men were thinking it. 

And my enemies too.
