Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

Read Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire Chapter 46 – Hitting Home LEO.

I had gotten a few hours of sleep in before going for a light run, making sure not to overexert myself, especially since I did not want Azura to feel my pain. I had returned home, showered and dressed before dealing with a little paperwork that I was falling behind on.

It wasn‘t long after that Corrado had woken up, and I had stopped working to spend a little time with him. We were now seated opposite one another, with a breakfast prepared by Rosaline in front of us.

Corrado ate silently, a deep frown on his face. The first thing he had done when he ran out of his bedroom was ask where Azura was… not hiding the fact that he had expected her to be here. Seriously, this kid. He had then become serious, frowning and watching me like a father would their disobedient pup.

“What did you do Daddy?” He asked suddenly, placing his spoon down. I raised an eyebrow while drinking my coffee. “What did I do?” “Why isn‘t Azura here? Did you make her angry?” He asked, looking at me with concern and suspicion.

I sighed. “Maybe?” I said arrogantly. “Daddy! I thought when I woke up Azura would be here too, wearing your shirt!” “Wearing my shirt?”

“Yes. It means you are going to share everything with her!” He looked at me questioningly, and I placed my mug down.

Yeah… wherever this kid is getting his information is pretty questionable… I should have a word with Winona…

“Daddy! We can‘t lose Azura.” He said his eyes were now full of worry.

“Hey kiddo listen, things aren‘t always as easy.”

“So you will still try harder?” His hopeful look made me frown slightly.

I placed my mug down and looked at him seriously.

“Corrado, why do you like her? I was with Nikki for two years and you were never this attached, although she had been living with us for over a year as well. So why are you so attached to Azura?” I asked.

He shrugged, looking down at his plate.

“I don‘t know Daddy, I like Azura and when she spends time with me, she doesn‘t go on her phone or look bored… She‘s happy to play with me and talk to me. Nikki was only happy when Daddy was there…” He mumbled.

My heart f**king clenched, and I couldn‘t stop myself from moving closer to him, taking his face in my hands as I crouched in front of him. I felt f**king guilty…

He may be young, but like all kids, he had good intuition. He picked up on things that you would never think he would… “I‘m sorry Nikki made you feel like that. Why didn‘t you ever tell me?”

“It‘s ok Daddy, she made you happy. I just… Azura is special and… I think Daddy likes Azura a whole wide world more, than Daddy liked Nikki.”

He said, stretching his arms wide as he smiled brightly. I smiled slightly. “Oh yeah?” “Yes Daddy, when you look at Azura you look happy…” “I‘m happy all the time.”

He shook his head.

“No Daddy, I mean when you are with Azura, it‘s the same happy like when we are alone Daddy.

You are different.” 2 I didn‘t reply, wrapping my arms around him tightly as I pulled him down from his chair, his small arms wrapping around my waist.

If I left him… Who would he have? And what about our unborn pup? I wanted to meet him or her too… What would the pup look like? Azura? Me? Maybe a mix? 5 For them… Do I ask Kiara? Who knows, maybe she could delay the process to buy me some time?

“Daddy, I love you the most.” He whispered.
