AZURA. Do I keep away from him, let him deal with Judah and leave. Allow him to see his child and somehow live without him? Or do I selfishly fight for him? Do I try to get through to him, because whether he likes it or not, his nightmares are now mine too… When he loves… he loves deeply… Marcel’s words were true. I know they were because I’ve seen the love he has for his son, the love and fear he had when I almost miscarried… Even though he hated who I was, he still looked out for me and still cared to an extent, no matter how much he denied it. What should I do? A sharp wind blew, whipping my hair in front of our faces, and I closed my eyes. The screams from his nightmare returned to me and my eyes snapped open. I would always be there for those who needed me. He reached over, brushing my hair back, tingles skimming the surface of my skin at his touch. He brushed the strands back, our eyes meeting, and I tried to focus on my words. "Well… whether you like it or not, your dr
LEO. It was the following day, and after crushing Corrado’s heart last night, I felt fucking awful. He had been asleep on the sofa when I returned, the food uneaten still on the table. He had gone to sleep hungry… So, the first thing I did this morning was promise him that tonight we were going to cook together, because Azura was going to come over. That had cheered him up and I was going to fucking make sure nothing fucked this up this time around. I had left him with Winona, they would go buy the list of groceries I had sent to her. I was currently in my office at headquarters, waiting for Jackie. Last night I told Eric to make sure she stayed in her apartment until she was called for. Emmet was in a cell which would stop him from linking anyone and before I talked to him, it was Jackie I needed to deal with first. The knock on the door made me look up, before it opened to reveal Eric, Nikki and Jackie. Jackie’s eyes were bloodshot, and it was obvious she had cried a lot. Eric
AZURA. Corrado was thrilled to see me and was showing me the entire apartment. The delicious smell of food was making me lick my lips, or was that his scent? I wasn’t sure… either way this place smelt divine. Kiara and Alejandro had left after lunch and although I’d miss them, I was glad I at least got to see them for a short while. Kiara’s parting words were to take care of myself, and the baby, along with a not-so-subtle comment to talk to Leo and try harder... In what way… well I knew what she wanted and hoped for. Think before acting Zu. Marcel had asked if I wished to stay at the mansion, but I had politely declined, deciding to return to the apartment beneath Leo’s. The short conversation I had with him now replayed in my mind. (EARLIER THAT DAY…) "Thank you for everything." I said looking at Marcel, we had just walked Al and Kia to the pack borders. "I'm afraid I didn’t do enough, but I can assure you Emmet will be punished for what he tried to do. I know my son, and I k
LEO. I agreed… I don’t know why I fucking did… I just knew that she wouldn’t betray my trust or mention it to others. She might be crazy, but she’s my type of crazy, and the one I know who wouldn’t do anything to hurt anyone on purpose, in serious matters anyway. I mean I wouldn’t put it past her to try to slit my throat in my sleep if I pissed her off but at the same time, I knew the type of things she’d keep quiet… I knew if she knew about the fact I'm dying, she would try to do shit even if it meant breaking a promise. But something like Corrado’s truth… she wouldn’t tell anyone. Even Marcel didn’t know and regardless of that truth, it changed nothing. I cleared the table off, taking a bottle of whiskey and two glasses to the lounge area. As a werewolf, I know drinking did nothing to a pregnant woman, so a glass or two won't fucking hurt. Why did this feel too intimate? I sighed remembering the vague memory from long ago, ‘Thank you, Weo’ back at Alejandro’s wedding… Her shoe h
LEO. "Leo…" She walked over to me, and the moment she touched my back, sending a rush of sparks through me, I felt a wave of calmness wash over me. The fucking bond. "I didn’t mean it in a bad way. You know, growing up, everyone called me a freak because I was born with the help of magic, so they found the word fitting. There were even a few people in the pack who refused to acknowledge me because of it. Heck, some still exist… as I got older, I stopped telling my family because I didn’t want to always cause them trouble…" She sighed, and I did my best to remain calm. Flaring anger rushed through me, and I wondered if that was why she was so cheerful because inside she was dealing with a lot. "I know you always say I'm the daughter of an Elite. Although my life is nowhere as harrowing as I'm sure yours has been, I just wanted to let you know that things aren’t always what they seem." She moved in front of me, her hand running along my waist, before she placed it on my chest. "It’s
AZURA. The moment he bit down on my neck, I was gone, lost in the unimaginable pleasure that only he could give me. I turned my head, giving him better access to the crook of my neck. A low growl of approval left him, and I shivered in delight when his tongue ran along my neck once more. Oh fuck… He sucked on my neck, hard, making my entire body explode with need and pleasure. I turned in his arms only for his hand to run over my stomach, the other hand brushing my hair back as he continued to pepper my neck with rough, sensual kisses. His dick was hard in his pants, pressing against me. Damn, I wanted our clothes gone. Goddess… I wished I could stay in his arms forever… I felt protected. I leaned into him, relishing in his touch. Every touch, every caress… from the brush of his hair against my cheek, or the way his heart was beating in his chest against my back, or the way his lips felt against my shoulder… It was perfection. I don’t know what we were, or if this was really h
LEO. It had shaken me when she had unknowingly let her barrier down. The sheer level of desperation, fear, pain, and agony when I rejected her and then walked away from her hit me hard… So fucking hard. I have not felt such an intense level of pain since I was a child, but knowing this was her feelings, made it a thousand fucking times harder. She had been unable to breathe as she clutched at her neck, trying to survive the violent pain that had torn through her. It fucking killed me to see things from her eyes, making me hate the fact that I did that to her. Seeing her crumble to the floor, as she watched me walk away was fucking ruthless. I had broken her and weakened her wolf right after taking everything from her… I had done the very same thing Rayhan had.I promised her something only to rip it away from her the very next. The heartbreak, the fear, and the sadness as she realised what happened consumed me with guilt. The vulnerability as she realised that she wasn’t wanted, wo
AZURA. I hadn’t even gotten to the entrance to the motel when the phone beeped, and I looked down at it. Judah. I felt sick and my heart was thumping before I even clicked on it. I hated being around him. I hated how whenever he was near, something always went wrong. I just wished he was gone from my life for good, or better yet, I wish I had never fucking met him. I looked down at my phone, frowning at the message. ‘I want you to take out any weapons you are carrying, and toss them in that trash bin. Then make your way around the back and up onto the rooftop. Leave the phone there too. Don’t play smart, I'm watching you my Pet.’ ‘He’s here.’ I said to Leo through the link, trying to sound as normal as possible. I hated him with a passion. I was glad Leo was near… I felt a little at ease. ‘Stay calm, I’m right there with you.’ His voice was powerful, calm, and confident which equates to sexy-as-hell. But that sick feeling only grew with each step, as I took out the dagger th
