Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

Alpha Leo And The Heart Of Fire Chapter 68

68: Failed

LEO.

Shane and Jackie, I didn’t want to fucking believe it. I had failed them both… Kareena, Shane’s mate too… Her life was over too. I could only imagine losing Azura. It would fucking destroy

me too.

I didn’t fear anything, save losing those that I loved.

The last conversation between Jackie and me that took place before we left yesterday flashed before my eyes, and I wish I had a little more time with her… she was always worried about me.

How she would have been fucking happy to know that I would be ok. How fucking happy she would have been that I would be healed. Little did we both know she’d die before me…

Fucking bastard.

Anger flared through me, my eyes blazing as I drove as fast as possible, sending orders through the phone.

“…possible breach, there was an explosion on the far left of the pack. Nothing was seen but-”

“I want a code red, fucking lockdown right now, have everyone on high alert.”

“Alpha Marcel’s got everyone on duty.” Ace replied.

“Good, get teams one, three and seven ready to set out. Tell Raj I want the best scouts now. Ace, Li Sheng, Jin, you three are to follow. Dan, Jax I want you both ready to tell me what the fuck went down.”

“I want to know too.” Marcel’s voice came.

“Got it.” The men replied.

I knew Dad would have plenty of fucking questions, considering the Six weren’t those I hung with on pack premises, aside from Jax. Yet they held power and individual squads at their disposal.

Jackie…

I couldn’t think about it right now. I had a bastard to catch. Azura reached over, placing her hand on top of mine. I could hear her heart thumping, and could feel the pain and guilt she was feeling.

“This isn’t your fault.‘ I said through the link, and I fucking meant it.

‘He was here because of me.‘ She replied quietly.

I glanced at her beautiful face, she was wearing that blank expression she always did when her mind was in turmoil.

‘No, he should have been fully guarded and I will fucking find out how Jackie even got there.‘ I growled murderously. He wasn’t on pack grounds so what the fuck happened?

She didn’t reply and I promised I would reassure her, but right now there were a few things I needed to make sure were done first.

I was pissed at the boys, why would they even let Jackie fucking go there?

“Don’t leave even an inch of the pack unscoured, if there was an explosion-”

I heard a sharp hiss of pain and some sound. “Dan here, Leo. He tried to break in but didn’t manage to, so he ran when we tried to capture him. He was far too fucking fast.” Dan’s breathless voice came.

“Got it”

Frowning, I pondered over his words. So somehow, Judah knew exactly where the pack was… Did he know beforehand? Why was he so fucking infatuated with Azura?

I looked up sharply seeing the fire that was coming from the trees in the distance. “Is anyone making sure that damage control is taken care of? If the humans question it, shit will get harder.”
