AZURA. "We are going to live with grandad forever?" Corrado asked excitedly as he struggled to hold his bags of plushies. Although he was barely managing and the bags were dragging on the floor, he was content. "We’ll see… the mansion’s a little outdated for my liking…" Leo replied. "Oh Daddy, you can fix it then, then we stay with Grandad, because Grandad is all alone there. Right Azura Mommy?" He asked me. I smiled, he still deviated between Mommy and Azura Mommy, although it was getting less frequent. Either way, they both made my heart melt. "Right!" I smiled at him. "You two are always on the same side, aren’t you?" Leo said as he came up from behind me and kissed my neck, his fingers brushing my stomach. My heart skipped a beat at his gesture, feeling the baby move. It was still small, and I knew he couldn’t feel it yet, but I had felt it. I tilted my head up, looking into those icy blue eyes of his incredibly handsome face. ‘Your pup just moved; I think it can sense your

LEO. My mind was suddenly blank as I stared at her walking past me, her ass had that sexy bounce to it, and the way she was strutting it across the kitchen fucking messed with me… Her long legs, which I’ve always fucking loved, looked so fucking sizzling hot in those fishnets that I was already hard. She didn’t even spare me a glance as she murmured something I didn’t even hear. She reached for the cabinet handle, her ass sticking out sexily, and it was obvious she fucking knew what she was doing to me. A growl escaped my lips as I closed the gap between us, grabbing her elbow, I spun her around to face me, making her gasp. The moment those sexy eyes met mine, I tangled my hand into her lush locks, yanking her head back and claiming her lips in a bruising kiss. She instantly locked her arms around my neck, kissing me back with equal passion. Our lips were moulded together, as I ravished her mouth, never were these lips ever fucking enough. One fucking taste and you just wanted mo

AZURA. Cartel? All traces of sleep vanished as I stared at the man before me. A man who for a second, I was unable to recognise. How could Leo be part of a cartel, and I had no idea about it? He was watching me emotionlessly, but I knew he was analysing my reaction. How do you react to that? I looked away, feeling a sudden pressure in my head. A Cartel. "So… When you say a Cartel? Do you mean like a secret Mafia boss?" I asked, my voice sounding hoarser than I planned. "There is a difference between a Cartel and a Mafia boss… but yeah, they are similar enough." "So…" I ran my hand through my hair, trying to organise my thoughts. Gangs. Just like him… "You know Judah had a gang…" I said, feeling my emotions all over the place. Although his was just totally different, and they terrorised people. "A gang is different from an organisation, but do you remember anything about it, or what they called themselves? Any information could help us." He asked sharply. My eyes flashed

LEO. I flipped open my laptop and took a seat on the couch. I was sitting in the mansion library, waiting for the meeting to start. I frowned deeply and massaged my jaw. I had made sure to secure the connection and set up the meeting before handing it over to Alejandro, but I wasn’t fucking looking forward to it. I just wanted this shit over with. Azura’s thoughts flitted through my mind, and I couldn’t help but smile slightly as I looked at my hands. She didn’t fucking care… She really did accept me for who I was… I still couldn’t get my head around it… How the fuck do I process that? How can someone just step into my life and accept everything about me? How did one feisty girl become my fucking world? I wouldn’t change her either… We were both fucking made for one another… just the way we fucking are. I could now hear her thoughts as she lay in bed, mulling over our conversation. Her curiosity regarding the meaning behind the organisation name… something about making sure Sky d

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
