Her Cold-Hearted Alpha Chapter 117

The Night

KIARA

They were both hurting , Alejandro and Aunty Indy . I knew Alejandro was afraid to lose me … N o matter how much he denied it or wouldn’t speak of it . Auntie’s words about him getting killed and leaving me hit him hard . I had seen it when he stormed out .

Even if he raised his walls , I could sense a person’s emotions . His fear … His love … His concern …. It broke my heart seeing my king so vulnerable . He was always the heartless one , or portrayed himself to be , but now that he had finally let himself love … we were facing a witch .

One who was powerful and fuelled by dark magic . Strong enough to be a risk to us all … I was scared too , scared to lose my happily ever after before it had even begun …. I entered my old bedroom after we had spent the last hour with Aunty Indy .

Only t o see Alejandro standing there with a towel wrapped around his waist , water trickling down his body and getting dangerously low … Goddess , I wouldn’t mind being those droplets right now … I licked my lips , my throat feeling dry . My core clenched at how smoking hot he looked .

He glanced at me , strands of his black hair falling in front of his eyes , another one of the things that made me dripping wet … ” Are you just going to fucking stand there , Amore Mio ? Or will you shut the door ? ” I blinked , then shut the door behind me , locking it before walking over to him .

” You showered already ? ” I ran my fingers through his wet strands of hair … ” I smelt of burnt onions . ” He replied with a deep frown , pulling me against him . My heart pounded as I rested my head against his chest . Desire rushed through me , but more than that , I needed him … his embrace … his closeness … his comfort …… ” Hey … What the fuck happened ? ” He asked , threading his hand into my hair as he tugged my head up to look at him .

I shook my head , making a kissy face , asking for a kiss . He smirked , bending down and kissing me softly . ‘ Nothing happened . ” I said through the link . My wolf was restless , and so was I. Girl calm down , I said to her , sighing . ” Doesn’t fucking seem like it .

” ” I just … I’m scared too . ” I said , fighting back the tears that I didn’t even know were building up . ” Nothing’s going to happen , ok ? ” He whispered , his deep voice thick and husky as he sat down on the bed and pulled me into his lap .

” When I think of the future …. I feel sick ….. like something bad is going to happen . ” I whispered . The overwhelming emotions that hit me every time I tried to focus on the upcoming day overcame me once again . H e didn’t speak for a moment , holding me tight .

” It doesn’t matter … Whatever happens …. we’ll get through it … I promise you , nothing will happen to you . Or to our pup . He said quietly , running his fingers ” through my hair as he kissed the top of m head . His voice held complete y confidence . ” Promise me nothing will happen to you .

” I whispered , my heart thudding . I needed that promise , I needed him to tell me . His heart was racing , and it terrified me . ” I promise that I’ll try my best to come out of this unscathed . Endora is my mother , and it’s my fucking job to end this shit …

. Crushing me completely . He didn’t promise me that he’ll be ok … he only promised he’d try … I couldn’t speak as he simply held me , his thundering heart

I realised how heavy the weight of those titles were . It was our duty to protect our people … no matter the cost . Neither of spoke . He only bent down , kissing my wet

down or when he slipped m y shoes off , but the sheer weight of knowing that anything could happen in a matter of days weighs heavily on me … all I could do was clutch onto the man that I

It had rained on and off through the day and now it was just getting colder . I wore leather pants , a polo – neck top with my necklace
