Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

64. 64. Boys Night Out LEO. ‘You got this.’ Azura‘s words when I left were in my mind, the fuck in the shower had been fucking hot and had done far more than relax me. I felt refreshed, and when she had kissed me and told me I would be ok, it just gave me a whole new level of fucking confidence to get this shit over with. 

The only fucking problem was the smirks from Kiara and Alejandro when we came down. I knew Alejandro‘s hearing was good... but I wasn‘t sure if that meant soundproof walls... 6 

Ah well, he‘s a fucking prick, I don‘t give a shit. We had left the mansion when Dante motioned to his ride and I raised an eyebrow. 

“No thanks.” I wasn‘t going to fucking sit in the back... I walked to my own car, feeling both Rayhan and Dante watching me, and got in, only for Dante to open the back door of the car and got in. “What the actual fuck?” I growled. 

“What? I‘m sitting in the back because I‘m the youngest, it‘s fair right?” He asked, smirking. 

And the fucking biggest... 

He couldn‘t read minds, could he? That meant that the bastard was about to– yeah he fucking got in... I cast both men a cold glare, before hitting the gas and turning the car violently speeding towards the gates. 

Great, now I am in the same fucking car as him... 

“This is a nice ride. I like the added tech.” Dante remarked. 

I didn‘t reply, driving towards the nightclub Dante had chosen. A club that belonged to me, and I knew he fucking knew it was mine. 

We got to the nightclub at record speed, and I got out, mind–linking my men to stay clear of me. The three of us headed inside without even a pass, obviously. The bouncer lowered his head towards me as we entered from a back entrance. 

The moment we entered, the music reached our ears, but I avoided the main club, heading up to the topmost floor via the lift. Rayhan glanced at me but said nothing. Dante just had a small smile on his face, still wearing his shades although it was night and yeah, I know werewolves can see in the dark and I‘m sure as fuck he could, even if he wasn‘t exactly a werewolf. I knew he was a Demi–God or whatever that shit was, but I wondered what exactly his wolf was like. Could he even shift? He didn‘t really smell exactly like a werewolf… And if he could, what did his wolf look like? 

Well, I don‘t care how intrigued I was, I hated how I wanted to know everything, but yeah, I‘ll just ask Azura. 8 

This place looks pretty neat.” Rayhan remarked, so he had clocked on that it was mine too. 

“Hm.” I replied not wanting to entertain him. lled the way to the VIP lounge on the top floor, there were several men in suits and women in dresses, some just having drinks, others deep in discussions. One of the human managers approached me. It was obvious he felt intimidated, he was a professional and a strong man for a human, but no one could ignore Dante‘s aura. 

“Hello–” 

“We‘ll be seated out on the balcony, make sure no one disturbs us.” I said, sounding cold and emotionless. 

“Of course, sir, but there is a reservation, someone booked out the entire floor.” He lowered his head apologetically. “Shall I cancel?” 

“That would have been mine, Dante Rossi.” Dante said, smirking. The manager looked a little uneasy looking up at him but nodded. “Ah yes it was, then that‘s perfect.” He said before he led the way, holding the doors to the rooftop sitting area for us. 

A human bartender was at the bar, this place was usually reserved for a select few. Music was playing out here, but it was far quieter than inside. 

I chose a seating area far from the bartender and a waitress came over to take our drink orders once we were seated on the leather sofa. I raised my eyebrow when Rayhan chose a non alcoholic one. 

Once she had come back with our drinks and left us alone I couldn‘t help but question it. 

“Why come to a club if you don‘t drink?” I asked coldly 

Rayhan picked up his mocktail and raised an eyebrow. “You invited me out after any years, why would I refuse?” “Hmm.” I grunted, downing my glass of whiskey and poured another. 

“The weather‘s nice.” Dante remarked. 13 

Weird shit. 

“Let me enjoy the small things in life. I‘m still human.” Dante replied, his head tilted up as he looked at the sky. “Only

I can relate to that…

We were all raised to hate witches, but because your sister ended up being a hybrid your family became more accepting, and because she was your mate, otherwise... no one fucking cared. You dealt me a hand of injustice, and I get it. I got that she was your mate, and I don‘t hold her accountable for any of it because she was a victim just like us... What you did is not something I‘ll ever forget, but I‘m going to try to let it go... Not just for me, but for Marcel and that fucker of an uncle...

I went about it wrong, and that is a regret I still hold. In all honesty, it was as if I was doing it for myself to make me feel better... because she told me to stop. I‘m sorry and I know you won‘t ever be able to forgive me fully but I do hope that we can move past it, although it isn‘t something small or easy to forget.
