We were sitting in the cinema, watching a kid‘s movie, but I could tell Corrado wasn‘t enjoying it as much, as he was enjoying watching me with a huge smile on his face. I felt fking bad, I was gone so often that he was regularly left without even seeing me on some days. “Not enjoying the movie?” I asked, looking down at him. He shook his head. “No, I love it! I‘m loving the movie because Daddy came with me.” He smiled and I leaned down, cupping the back of his head, placing a kiss on his forehead. “Me too. It may be boring, but I like that we get this time, you know.” I remarked, adjusting his mini popcorn tray in his lap. “Thank you, Daddy.” I gave him a wink before glancing at my phone. Azura hadn‘t left her room, which I was relieved about, but I couldn‘t get what happened earlier out of my fking mind.

She was still hurting from all the sht I did to her… But she didn‘t get what I had meant, I regretted marking her because of my limited time… I know Jackie has told me that Kiara could probably heal me, but I was unable to put aside my ego and ask them for anything. I didn‘t need their help, just for Marcel and all of them to remind me that I fking owed them… 9 A couple of young women slid into the seats next to me. Whispering and giggling irritatingly, they had been seated elsewhere before they had left not long ago. The entire room was pretty empty, and I was certain they didn‘t pay for the seats they had now fking taken. Corrado‘s eyes turned toward them before he looked at me, frowning slightly. “He‘s so fit.” “Dmn and who‘s the kid with him?”

“Let me sit next to him.” They were whispering quietly, but obviously, it was fking loud in my ears. Irritating as fk.

I didn‘t spare them even a glance while watching the screen, despite half my attention being on Corrado.

“Hey, cutie.” One of the women waved at him, leaning closer. Corrado raised his eyebrows, looking at me and then at the women again. “My Daddy has a girlfriend.” He declared, and I almost smirked. 6 He had realised pretty young that women tried to talk to him to get to me, and he never stood for it.

“Um sure, what‘s your name?”

I was tempted to speak up, but watching my kid deal with them was far more entertaining. “I don‘t tell strangers my name. Sorry. Daddy, let‘s go home, Azura is waiting for you.” My eyebrow shot up.

Azura? Didn‘t he mean Nikki?

“The movie?” “It‘s boring, and I don‘t like girls.” He whispered loudly. 1 I sure fking hoped the women were feeling fking humiliated, and I stood up.

“Let‘s go kid.” I lifted him up, walking out the other way.

“So why did you say Azura and not Nikki?” I asked, taking my phone out,

“You and Nikki broke up, so now we keep Azura as your new girlfriend.” ;

Leaving you. 8 I took my phone out and looked at it again. I fking felt at unease again and after last time I wasn‘t feeling good about her being there alone. Although I could see Jax was there on the steps, clearly alert, as his head was turned downwards towards the lower floor. 1 He was using a scent disguiser, and I knew even Emmet wouldn‘t notice him there unless he went up the stairs, so all should be ok… “Kiddo, shall we get takeaway and get home? Maybe we can eat it with Azura?” “Oh yes! Let’s all eat together. Then you make Azura happy, and we bring her home.” He replied as we left the place. “Perfect.” I replied distractedly, as I walked over to one of the takeout shops inside near the cinema. I placed our order distractedly, as I mulled over Emmet‘s reaction when I told him that he was suspended until further notice… (FLASHBACK) “It was her, wasn‘t it?” He asked, barely able to keep his hatred at bay. I raised an eyebrow. “Whether it was her or someone else. I will follow protocol because we stand for what‘s right. As future Alpha and Delta, it‘s our fking duty to be an example for our people. These are just the rules that we all need to follow.” 1 “You spoke to Jackie, I‘m sure she‘ll clearly tell you we are totally fking fine.” He spat. “Calm the fk down, Emmet. Friend or not, I’m not going to break the rules for you.” I warned, my eyes flashing. “You are going to believe a fking Elite? One who has fking reaped discord since she‘s got here. Tell me, who is her fking mate that ain‘t accepting her?!” “Jax.” I lied, knowing this meant I would have to tell Jax the truth, but he‘d keep the secret. “Jax Adams? And you really want one of your strongest men mated to an Elite?” He looked disgusted. “I‘ve never stopped anyone from going to an elite pack or vice versa before, if they find their mate. She‘s been marked, what do you want me to do? Just send her back? The one who marked her needs to fix this sht… somehow.” 1 “Who cares what happens to a fking elite.” He spat. 1 I frowned. “She wasn‘t one of the ones who caused us any

Or was he really not moving? Jax.’ No reply. I parked up, grabbing Corrado from the back.
