Rejected By Him Claimed By His Uncle (Rita and Leo) novel Chapter 63

Chapter 63
RITAS POV
Alpha Leo was waiting for me at the parking lot, so I hurriedly got back to him after Aunt Freya was taken away from me.
Aunt Freya’s words kept on bugging me.
How was my womb poisoned?
I got into the passenger’s seat of Leo’s car and 1 zoned out.
“Rita
I flinched and looked at Leo. It sounded like he had been calling for a long time now.
“What are you thinking about? Did your aunt say anything bad to you?”
I shook my head. “No. No, I mean yes. Well, not exactly. I looked away and heaved a sigh of frustration. “She said nothing that was too bad. It’s not important.”
How could I tell Leo that my womb was poisoned? That meant I could not give him a heir. My heart shattered
You should meet pack’s healer and tell her Freya sent you. She will help you.
Those were Aunt Freya’s words. That meant there was a solution and I had nothing to worry about. Plus, I should not ignore the fact that Aunt Freya really has a mental illness. She knew a lot of things. Yes, but she was still mentally ill. She could say anything. All I had to do was try to verify which of her words were true.
“Are you sure it is not important? You look terrified, Leo pointed out. From the rearview mirror, I could see how much concem he had for me.
I had no right to keep this from him, but if I could find a solution myself, what was the need? “Sure just said a lot of scary things about my mother’s death. I’m finding it hard to process them.”
Leo opened his mouth to talk, but he closed it immediately and turned to the wheels. I knew he wanted to say more and ass more questions. He knew I was hiding something, but he did not push it.
“Can’t I’visit Aunt Freya again? I can’t wait for three months.”
“It’s against the rules to visit the asylum more than once every three months. If the asylum was handled by this pack, I respond have let you visit your Aunt as much as you want as long you are not harmed in the process, but Asylums are handled by the head council of the werewolf community and even I can’t interfere.”
He frowned and added; “So this is how it feels to be powerless. It is a very strange feeling.”
I laughed and he gave me a look of disapproval before he started driving
“Sorry, I can’t help it. It’s cute to see you like this.
“Cute?” He scoffed. “You’re calling an Alpha cute?”
“I’m calling my mate cute,” I said, smiling at him. He looked back at me and smiled back, blushing.
I chuckled.
“You’ll get us into an accident,” He pointed, still smiling. His smile disappeared. “I should be able to get you anything you want. I will have to find a way so you can see Aunt Freda whenever you want. You know what, when next you’re ready to
visit

her, tell me.
“You said it yourself. I can’t visit Aunt Freya again until three months.”
“You’re a Salvatore. I should flaunt you more so anybody who sees my Luna will recognize her. Next time you go, I’ll come with you.”
“Like you said, the head council makes the rules.”
Leo smiled smugly. I changed my mind. Why should I play according to the rules, when I can choose not too? My Lima is involved after all. Of course, they will throw a little tantrum, but what’s the worse that can happen.”
I looked down at the paper Aunt Freya gave me. I wanted to do more than just visit her. I wanted to get her out of there. I wanted her to be normal again.
There was a loud thud. Like someone had jumped on the car. At that moment, I saw an bullet aimed straight at my head.
It felt like to my heart flew out of my chest. The car windows where opened, but before it got to me, Leo stretched his hands in front of me, so the bullet hit his hand instead. Then the windows rolled up.
1 heaved a sigh of relief and I began to hyperventilate.
More bullets hit the car and immediately I saw someone’s head handing from the top of the car to the front window.
He punched the window and it cracked. He kept on punching time window, but before he could break it completely, Leo expertly drove the car in away that will throw him off the car and he succeeded. In less than a minute, he was on the ground and our car sped fast past him.
More gunshots came our way, but later on the gunshots stop.
“What the bell was that all about?” I blurted when the gunshots stop. While my chest kept moving up and down like a rollercoaster, Leo was calm. My eyes traveled to his arm that was shot and my eyes widened.
What was aimed at me was definitely a silver bullet and it just dawned on me that Alpha Leo took the shot. “Oh my goddess you got shot. Stop driving!” I screamed. He was near death, but he still kept on driving. “Do you want to die? If you die, I’m coming with you. I don’t want a third chance mate,” I cried and he started laughing.
His laughter was weak and his skin was turning white. This was aserious situation. Why on earth was he laughing?
“Why are you laughing?” I asked. He was in danger. I wished he was not, so I could easily get annoyed at him. “My glove compartment. Check it. You’ll see an elixir. That’s moonstone antidote. Help me with it”
“You have to pull over, I screamed as I reached out to his glove compartment.
“I’m not pulling over until I get you to safety,” he said without stopping to drive and I dropped the elixir on his mouth.
The wound from the bullet healed immediately. Seeing that, I gave him a light shove. “That’s for scaring me to death. What was that all about?”
That’s my brother’s doings. And, when I mean brother, I don’t mean Sebastian’s father.”
“You have a brother other than Sebastian’s father?”
“I have two other brothers and apparently, one of them is back to kill me.”
