9. A Painful Surprise

AZURA.

“One month it‘s all I‘m asking for, and then I‘ll be a good little she–wolf and walk away without unleashing hell.” I replied, trying not to let the mockery in my voice show.

I gripped his wrist, forcing him to let go of me.

He released me, taking out a cigarette and lit it.

An image of Judah smoking his joint came to my mind, and the vast difference between both of them hit me hard.

Leo oozed power and danger, yet, despite the pain, I don‘t know if it was the mate bond, but I felt better around him.

Sure the pain he had caused me still hurt, and that emptiness that had grown inside of me was still there, but…

I knew I would be safer here until I found a way to deal with Judah.

“You will behave, and you will not tell anyone why you‘re here.

Marcel won‘t be back for a few weeks, and I want you gone before then.

Deal?” Marcel? Something about him using his Dad‘s first name told me things weren‘t great between them.

“Fine, I will be gone before your dad is back.” Our eyes met, before he turned and walked out, slamming the door behind him.

I let out a breath, not realising how overwhelming it was to have him here.

I placed a hand on my stomach, with Leo agreeing, it brought me enough time to think of a plan and maybe I could ask the doctor to do a check.

But would she be truth–worthy enough not to tell Leo? Her Alpha? the doctor re–entered, holding a tray of food.

“I‘m fine, relax.” I gave her a wink, walking over to the small sink basin where a mirror hung above it.

Fucker.

He had left a mark on my neck.

“He just has a shitty attitude but it‘s fine, my family knows him, so I‘m staying here for a bit.” I shrugged.

I should have asked Leo what we were going to say, but staying any longer than necessary in his presence was hard too.

“Oh, I‘m glad everything is ok.

Please get some rest, I‘ll ask the Alpha and have an apartment arranged for you.

I have got some food for you to eat for now.”

She was so adorable.

“Doctor Demiko, right?” “Yes, you can call me Jackie, what‘s your name?”

“Azura.” I winked, flashing her a small smile.

“There‘s something you could help me with, but I don‘t want Alpha Leo finding out because I don‘t want my family to know.” Her smile faltered.
