Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

96. Family Bonds 

AZURA. 

Kiara places her arm around her, “We will Mom, and he will pay, he just upset two of the most powerful families in the country and-” she’s cut off by Leo and Alejandro. 

“What do you mean two of the? We ARE the fucking strongest. Well, we Rossis are, anyway.” Alejandro says arrogantly. 

“Saying that as if there are others on parr is fucking insulting.” Leo says at the exact same moment. 3 

We all look at them and I see it once again; the stark similarity between the two. Both are in similar clothing, both with chains around their necks, expensive watches, cigarettes in their hands, tattoos, frowns, and those matching attitudes. 

Wow. 

“We’re nothing alike.” Leo growls, a rebuttal to our unspoken thoughts as Marcel chuckles. 1 

Damn was it wrong that I found that sexy? I wouldn’t mind letting him manhandle me and fuck me hard… Leo’s eyes flash as they meet mine, the look of hunger in them told me he heard everything I was thinking. My stomach does a somersault and I simply wink at him. 

“Well, they are blood-related,” Marcel says, making me blink and look away. 

“There are Rossi’s who are not like these two, not sure what I fucking did to get these two for my daughters.” Dad grumbles and I pout, nudging him. 8 

“Cheer up, Dad, maybe it’s because they’re the very best and that’s what your daughters deserve?” I try to appease him, as Leo scoffs. 

“Don’t fucking compare us or put us on the same level.” 

“Yeah, I’m the king…” Alejandro smirks as Raven suppresses a giggle, placing a hand on Liam’s arm. He was still silent. ” 

And you may be smart, but if you don’t fucking see the similarities… then you’re a dumb fuck.” Alejandro adds. 5 

I can’t help but giggle as all the women in the room start laughing. I see Marcel suppress a snicker and even Dad doesn’t seem as angry. 

“I can say the same about you, because even if there are some fucking similarities in our appearances, we are not the same person. We will never be the same.” He shoots back. 

My smile fades as I realise that although he does look like Alejandro on the outside, they could be miles apart inside… just the way I look like Indigo but I’m not her… I am my own person and sometimes it’s hard always being compared to someone else. 2 

“I agree,” I say, and Leo cocks a brow but says nothing. 

That was something I needed to talk to Mama and Dad about. To let it all out, 

how I feel about her… 

I turn when the door opens, and I see Liam leaving the room. My heart skips a beat. Raven is about to go after him until I stop her, shaking my head. “Let me.” I whisper before breaking into a run. 

“Liam!” He stops, and I see him wiping his face, his back to me. “Liam…” I catch up to him, placing my hand on his arm. He looks down at me and I see his eyes look a little red. “Hey…” 

‘Why didn’t you tell me?’ His voice comes through the pack link and even then, it sounds strained, and I knew why he didn’t say it out loud, not wanting his voice to break. 3 

My heart squeezes and I realise that the link would be gone tonight… because tonight I will be initiated into the Sangue pack. It’s a bittersweet thought… Happy for the life ahead, yet, the life I knew growing up… The pack… my family, all of it will be left behind for the one I love… I tilt my head and look at my brother. 

“I’m sorry… you have always moved the world for me, Liam… you have been my hero since day one… No matter what I did to annoy you, you let it slide. You always believed that your little sister was perfect. But the truth is I’m not… I’m not perfect Liam.” I whisper. 

He pulls me close and hugs me tightly. 

No, maybe not for the world, but for me, you are perfect. The perfect sister that anyone would be lucky to have.” 

I chuckle, despite feeling super emotional. “Yeah? You do know I’m the one who used to put the spiders and fleas in your clothes, the one who cut holes in your clothes, and the one responsible for all the issues in your life? The squares in your boxers, the glue in your shaving cream? The cockroaches in your boots?” I ask, looking up at him. 

He smiles and raises an eyebrow. “I’m a werewolf, Azura. You left your scent wherever you went. Who else would sabotage my life? I always knew it was you.” 

My eyes widen in surprise. Sure I thought he’d know some stuff, but never did I think he’d have known it was all me. I raise an eyebrow, a little confused as Kiara comes into the hall. Her heels echoing off the hard flooring. 

I ask. “Or tell Mama? She would have totally punished me.”
