Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

49. A Call

LEO.

She played me fucking dirty and left. But despite the fucking beast she awoke within me, it was her words that really got to me. ‘Although I’m not enough for you…‘

If I wasn’t half as stubborn as I fucking was, I would have told her the truth that that shit ain’t true… But yeah, that’s all there fucking was to it…

I felt lighter getting that over with, and it reminded me of the past when I at least had my father… It’s just a shame it’s too late for all of that to be back. Right?

I was delaying… I knew I was far past the stage of Kiara being able to help me, but I don’t think I wanted to hear it. Even if I already knew the truth.

I pushed the thought away thinking back to the moment between Azura and Corrado.

Corrado has only ever said ‘I love you‘ to three people before now; Dad, Winona, and me. It had hit hard… He had taken to her, I didn’t need any more fucking signs that she was meant for me.

That hatred I felt… even the word elites… it all seemed so fucking far in the past… I walked to the bottom of the garden of the mansion and pulled out my phone. Time to ring Alejandro. I smoked my cigarette while looking down at my phone. Although I did not want to hear his cocky comebacks right now, I couldn’t delay it.

I found his number and hit call. He answered after a few rings.

“Leo.” His voice was level, yet it was obvious he was happy to get this damn call.

“Alejandro.” I replied.

“I’m getting lucky with all the calls. How are you?”

Not so fucking good.

“Perfect.”

“Good to hear. How’s your son, or should I say, my grandson?”

I frowned, obviously that wasn’t going to stay a secret forever.

keep an eye on all news I could get, but I wasn’t going to waste my time pulling him from the fucking net. After all, I’m the one who fucking created the search engine BlueXZ. It was accessible only to the supernatural, and something that was now beginning to be used across the continent. Alejandro knew I was the creator of it, I knew that from Marcel since he used to always fucking share whatever shit I was up to. Years back, when I first created it, I had been surprised that Alejandro had verified it as safe, although he had never commented on it to me, but it was now something used frequently. I had a team that was ever–growing, but to expand it, the Sangue Pack just wasn’t enough, but I always refused to

off, I also wanted to hear what he had to say. “She may have been raised in one of the most powerful packs in the country, but due to her birth, she has had a lot of negativity from many. Even at the academy, she was classed as the troubled child, and had been suspended several times for getting into fights. She’s a good kid, and she has a good heart with a tough fucking exterior, but don’t let it fucking fool you. Don’t hurt her, you already did that by rejecting her after marking her. I’m fucking surprised she’s able to stay strong after that… It’s going to take time for her and her wolf to heal. But just don’t fucking
