Read Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire Chapter 36 – A Battle of Wills

AZURA.

 

I had looked in the mirror ten times before convincing myself that the shorts and sports bra were totally ok to go out in. I put on Kiara‘s strappy black heels, not wanting to rummage in the bag that had been retrieved from my apartment, in case Kia got disturbed. 1

D**n, I loved this woman‘s heel collection… Last year I had liked a pair of snakeskin knee high boots of hers, and she had told me I could keep them.

Selfless as always.

After zipping them up, I made my way to the door, just when I saw my phone screen light up.

I was sure it was from Sky, she was the only one up at this time, but I wasn‘t going to cross the room when I had just reached the door. I‘ll get back to her later. 2

I slipped out of the room silently, making my way down the dimly lit hallway, tip–toeing down the stairs. I could see the light in the lounge was still on. Were Marcel and Al still awake?

Ok… I don‘t want them to hear me leaving. Wait, Al has like supersonic hearing; he‘ll know either way, and I had nothing to hide.

Right? Right I still opened the door super quietly and slipped out, only to catch sight of the glowing tip of Leo‘s cigarette. He was standing in the shadows across the huge front lawn, leaning against a tree to the side.

His eyes fixed on me.

And when I walked towards him, I felt very conscious that my tiny shorts barely covered my a*s. Maybe I should have come out barefoot, I don‘t think the heels helped. What was I going to talk to him about? Why did I even ask if we could meet?

His eyes were no longer on my face, but rather skimming over my legs, a look of hunger flashed in his eyes before he looked away smoothly.

My heart thundered and the moment his scent hit me full force, I wanted to close my eyes and

inhale it.

“Were you awake?” I asked.

Dumb question, obviously he was, because there was no block or force preventing me when I mind–linked him.

“Yeah.”

At least he didn‘t mock me.

He was wearing a pair of sweatpants and a t–shirt that clung to his body, emphasising his every ridge and groove. I forced myself to stop staring and looked into his piercing blue eyes.

“What did you want to talk about?” He asked, his voice was so ice–cold, that it took me aback.

He meant business.

Ok…
