Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

70. Moons

LEO.

I let the shower water run over me, washing away the soap suds from my body. I was unable to remove the images of both Shane and Jackie’s bodies from my mind. Those final memories of their bodies would always remain in my mind.

Anyone could have died, and no matter who it was, I would have felt it. No matter how much I tried, I still wasn’t doing enough. Judah Gallahan was someone I was going to figure out, I will find out exactly what the fuck he is. To stay dead, pretend to be dead for that long…

He held certain traits of a vampire, but he wasn’t one, he didn’t fit the box… I have seen vampires and have been around them when Endora had managed to capture a few. There wasn’t really much in England in comparison to the States, but there were a lot of differences between Judah and vampires. However, I wouldn’t rule it out completely. I needed to start somewhere…

Switching the shower off, I leaned my head against the wall for a moment, sighing heavily.

They were gone.

Fuck…

It still hurts.

Sliding the door open, I grabbed a towel and roughly dried myself off before I walked to my wardrobe area and took out some boxers and sweatpants. I was heading out to the lounge

when I heard the sound of Corrado and Azura talking.

Had he still been awake all this time?

“… lumpy sandwiches, Mommy, but I know Daddy will like this goopy dish.” I saw him examining something that clearly smelled like nachos as Azura stood there next to him, hands on hips. The small curve of her stomach was noticeable from this angle. Our pup was growing, and I could hear its heartbeat too.

I smiled faintly, leaning against the door as they conversed.

“It’s nachos, not goop!” Azura protested prodding the Nachos with a finger before she licked the Salsa off her finger.

Fuck girl…

“Oh yes, it just doesn’t look as nice as Daddy’s nachos… but don’t worry, Mommy, Daddy will love them.” 2

Azura grinned. “I didn’t have any doubt until you put that doubt in me. But your dad has no option but to eat this!” She looked up, noticing me, and I smirked when her eyes swept over

my shirtless torso. Her heart was racing as I slowly walked over to them.

“Daddy! Mommy made nachos!”

I picked him up and looked at the tray she had prepared, nachos, topped with plenty of cheese, salsa, and jalapenos. Coffee for me, milk for the two of them, and some other small snacks. For my girl, this was a big effort.

“It looks good,” I said, wrapping my arm around her and pulling her close. “As long as I don’t get food poisoning,” I added teasingly, making her smack my waist and glare up at me.

Always resorting to violence…

Smirking slightly, I kissed her lips feeling Corrado staring, and it took a lot to keep my tongue to myself. We moved back, our eyes locked, and I felt a wave of strength wash through me.

Their presence helped…

Corrado giggled and made kissy sounds as I picked up the tray and took it to the table.

“I’ll be right back; I’m just going to change into something else.” Azura added. I watched her leave, my eyes on her ass only for Corrado to giggle again.

“What are you finding so funny?” I
