Read Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire Chapter 17 – His Hope

AZURA.

 

“Later.” Leo’s quiet, cold voice came as I walked over to Marcel.

“Babe…”

Conceal how you feel.

You got this girl.

“It smells so good.” I said, smiling as I look at the flames.

“Be careful, Azura, it’s very hot.” The heat of the grill was nothing compared to the burning pain in my chest.

“I don’t mind getting burned.” I replied quietly, before giving him a smile.

“So, where did you go on holiday?” “Well, I was in Scotland for the most part, and then I stopped at a few places before my visit to Alejandro was cut short.” I could feel Leo’s irritation, but I didn’t bother paying him any attention.

“I’m sorry about that.” I replied as I picked up the platter of cooked meat and carried it to the round table, where everything was already set up.

I didn’t want to sit at the table with him, but I had no choice but to.

When Corrado jumped into the seat between Marcel and me, I expected Leo to take the seat next to his father, but instead, he took the seat on my left.

I clenched my jaw but didn’t even spare him a glance as I began filling my plate.

Nikki said down last, placing her hand on Leo’s bulging bicep before she moved back, a small smile on her face.

1 “It’s tasty!” Corrado declared and I smiled as I carried on building my tower burger.

“That’s so big!” “Well, she’s got a big gob.” Leo remarked.

I clenched my jaw.
Yeah, I f*****g do, or I wouldn’t have been able to take your d**n d**k! I should have bitten it off when I had the f*****g chance…

4 “Leo, be nice.” Nikki said, despite the small, amused smile on her face.

“Oh, it’s ok, I get a lot of people jealous of my big mouth.

Are you jealous, Little Alpha?” I asked sweetly, turning my attention to Leo.

He raised his eyebrow as he looked at me.
“No.

How about you, jealous?” We weren’t talking about my lips anymore.

“Keep talking.” I challenged him with a dangerous smirk, satisfied when his confidence faltered.

“Oh yes, Marcel, what is the law against marking someone without permission?” 2

Leo’s hand shot out under the table, grabbing my thigh, as he gave it a squeeze in a warning.

2 Marcel frowned as he stared at my neck, before his eyes met mine.

“It’s a serious crime, one that would be taken to the court of Selene.”

Leo scoffed.

“No one from this pack is going to ever be trialled at the court.” “Why not, Daddy?” Corrado asked.

I discreetly tried to push Leo’s hand off of me.

His fingers on my inner thigh were driving me nuts, with equal desire and anger.

“Because-”

“We follow the council, Leo.

We are part of this country and its rules.” “I follow no rules.”

Right.

If he was not going to remove his f*****g hand….

Then I’m just going to have to remove it for him.

One last chance, f****r.

I glared at him, but he simply gave me another one of his emotionless cold glares that oozed power and dominance.

Nope? Ok.

I picked up the knife and cut my burger down the middle, before slipping my hand under the table, knife in hand.
