Read Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire Chapter 29 – Do I Trust Him

AZURA.

 

“Try me.”

His words rang in my head, and I wanted to. Somehow, I wanted to blurt it all out and have him fix it…

It was weird, the way he made me feel like I could rely on him. It confused the heck out of me because I always handled everything myself.

He looked so yummy in that black shirt and grey pants. His toned thighs, narrow waist and those delicious muscular biceps … This guy was born with incredible genes and those blue eyes… goddess never had I liked the colour more.

But the way he was behaving was unnerving me… I could feel his anger. I just wasn’t sure if it was because I left the room, or f**ked up his delta’s face, or because maybe seeing me injured pissed him off?

Stop kidding yourself Azura… He marked you, rejected you, and watched you collapse before walking away…

The memory felt like a harsh slap in the face, and I broke our eye contact, moving away from his touch.

I pushed the painful thought away and took a deep breath.

“I was in here when I heard two loud bangs and they sounded a bit weird; so I thought I’d go see if Jackie was ok, I barely got out the door when I saw Emmet storm out their door….” I nudged him away with my shoulder and slid out from wliere he had me trapped. “He entered the lift and I hurried to their door, Jackie opened it thinking it was Emmet. That’s when I saw that she had a bruise on her cheek and around her neck. It wasn’t even just finger marks; he had dug his claws into her skin and then… she just said to me not to tell the Alpha.’

I turned and looked at him, he was standing there, one hand to his chin, the other in his pocket and he was frowning deeply, obviously wanting me to continue. So I looked him square in the eye and carried on.

“When I went down there, he was around the side of the building about to go through some door, and I called him. He told me to mind my own business, and I confronted him. He got pissed and threatened me. Then I defended myself by losing my sh*t and attacking him like the psycho I am.” I finished with a shrug.

No reaction.

That frown remained, as his eyes dipped to my forearm, where I was bleeding a little, although it was already healing up pretty well. It wasn’t a big deal… if he saw Emmet…

“So although he’s your Delta, he could use some work…” I mumbled as he advanced on me but despite the fact he was oozing dominance and power, it wasn’t threatening, even if my heart was racing. I knew that was because of something entirely different.

He took my wrist in his hand before raising it to his mouth, and to my surprise, he ran his tongue along the graze, sending a riveting jolt of pleasure straight to my core.

I knew alpha saliva helped heal faster, but the way he was looking at me was anything but innocent.

I yanked my arm away, frowning at him, despite feeling my cheeks heat up.

“What are you doing!” I growled.

He c**ked a brow, taking out a cigarette and lighting it.

“Alpha saliva heals, or don’t you know that?”

“I do,but just because I had a graze doesn’t mean you are going to go around licking it.” I frowned, although it left a cooling touch in its wake.

“I saw a cut and I licked it. End of f**king story.” He growled, smoking his cigarette.

“I have a graze on my a*s, are you going to lick that too?” I shot back, before freezing as his eyes met mine.

You really are the classiest woman in the world, Azura. Is there ever a time I didn’t put my foot in my d*mn mouth?

“Do you want me to?” He replied mockingly.

Leo’s pierced tongue on my a*s?

Hmm yes, please.

Wait no.
