Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

Read Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire Chapter 40 – Something I’ve Never Shared LEO.

I agreed… I don’t know why I f*****g did… I just knew that she wouldn‘t betray my trust or mention it to others. She might be crazy, but she‘s my type of crazy, and the one I know who wouldn‘t do anything to hurt anyone on purpose, in serious matters anyway.

I mean I wouldn‘t put it past her to try to slit my throat in my sleep if I pissed her off but at the same time, I knew the type of things she‘d keep quiet…

5 I knew if she knew about the fact I‘m dying, she would try to do s**t even if it meant breaking a promise. But something like Corrado‘s truth… she wouldn‘t tell anyone.

Even Marcel didn‘t know and regardless of that truth, it changed nothing. I cleared the table off, taking a bottle of whiskey and two glasses to the lounge area.

As a werewolf, I know drinking did nothing to a pregnant woman, so a glass or two won‘t f*****g hurt.

Why did this feel too intimate?

I sighed remembering the vague memory from long ago, ‘Thank you, Weo‘ back at Alejandro‘s wedding…

Her shoe had slipped off, and I remember slipping it on for her. I remember thinking she was cute… Who would have thought, the confused little she–wolf would turn out to be mine. 7

I looked at the bottle in my hand, considering putting it away, only for the sound of a door shutting to reach my ears, followed by the sound of her heels on the floor, making me look up.

She came into view, stretching her arms, only to make her top ride up slightly, showing off a little more skin.

D**n, she looked so f*****g good…

Her eyes met mine and she seemed to become more serious, as she lowered them slowly. I was f*****g forgetting my own rules…

All I could see was her… 4 I was right, we should never be in a room alone together.

“Whiskey? Hmm maybe Corrado was right; it wasn‘t just him who wanted to spend time with me.”

She smirked as she came over before sitting on the sofa and crossing those s**y legs of hers. I poured two glasses, giving her an emotionless look “Don‘t kid yourself. I just need a drink if I’m going to spend another couple of hours with you. “I mocked arrogantly. She raised an eyebrow challengingly. “And here I was under the impression that you were super smart. I never knew whiskey could help take the edge off anything for a werewolf. If this was absinthe, I‘d get it.” She countered.

Was I f*****g losing my brain cells? 2

Her parents and brother were killed years ago when their pack was destroyed. Her nephew, Stefan Herrmann, a cousin of mine, he was the one I ended up finding but they were living like humans. There was only a handful of them left, his father had made an enemy with a neighbouring pack, and unlike here, where Alejandro does keep the rest of the packs under control, it was a f*****g mess over there.
