Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

The Rare Kind

AZURA.

That night Leo didn’t sleep well, tossing and turning and simply lying awake. When he did sleep, his dreams were full of bloodshed, drugs, guns, screams, and dead bodies.

Every time he got up, I didn’t mention that I was getting them too, carefully keeping my walls up and keeping him close. When the first rays of the morning light crept through the crack in the curtain, Leo sat up running a hand through his hair and exhaling sharply.

I placed a hand on his back, slowly sitting up.

“What’s wrong, Blue–Eyes?” I asked, “You haven’t slept well all night.”

He turned to me, tangling his hand into my hair and kissing my jaw. “And I fucking ruined your sleep too.”

“Far from it, want to talk about it?” I asked softly, getting on my knees, and wrapping my arms around him from behind.

My heart skipped a beat, and for a moment it felt surreal, knowing that this man was mine. All mine. I tightened my arms around his shoulders and kissed his neck softly. “It might make you feel lighter, and if you need me to make any voodoo dolls, I’m all for it, I think I can find an actual witch dark enough to spell them.” I added lightly. He smirked, glancing at me but remained silent as I placed soft kisses along his bare shoulder and neck, waiting for him to start. I knew he was pondering over whether or not to say something.

He took a deep breath, exhaling slowly before he began. “I created the Heimtückische Wölfe Cartel when we had nothing. Back then the only money we had was shares given by the Rossi Empire. I always feared that someday they would be gone… Dad didn’t have the luxury of education or any experience with the real world. Everything was run by Rafael… and then, when he died, it went onto Rayhan…” He leaned his head against me, looking towards the faint light through the crack in the curtains.

“After what happened, I just was so sure that someday we’d be left with nothing, that it would all just be taken from us, and so I did my best. In the beginning, I only knew how to read a little. Back in the caverns, some of us kids were sometimes taught by mom, or one of the other adults, but it was limited since there were no resources. Mom did her best though, her life changed drastically after she found Dad, and it started taking a toll on her. Unlike us… she wasn’t born a rogue… Endora never liked her and only kept her around for Dad… That was until she learned how to break the bond.” My heart clenched thinking he had been through so much…

“Anyway, it was what pushed me to study harder, become smarter, and play wiser. So, I started off with games such as chess, cards, and pool, staking a cash prize if I won. Until it came to the point everyone knew I’d win. Then, I moved on to racing and fighting illegal underground matches. But it wasn’t enough, there was just too much we needed to do, and I didn’t want to be indebted to anyone. Spending my time in the human cities, I realised that poverty existed there too…”

how so many vulnerable children were fucking abused in so–called foster homes. Yeah, not all are like that but there was still far more than there should have been. The government and the care homes just weren’t equipped enough financially to keep children there long enough, and instead were forced to place them with foster carers even when the situations weren’t the best. “He

For every Rayhan Rossi born with a silver spoon in his fucking mouth, I wanted to show the world that ten Leo Rossi’s were born and would prove to the world that they deserved a chance too.” The pain and the determination in his voice made me

So, I began enforcing laws and rules, because there was scum who targeted the vulnerable, and I realised if I truly wanted to protect them all, my eyes in the underworld must always be on alert.

Heck, I know people will be like, oh he deals drugs, he’s a horrible person but we all know there are so many men in suits pretending to care for this country when really it’s just a game of power and corruption.
