108. Time & Ten

Delsanra gasps, averting her gaze as she

covers her eyes and runs past me and

inside. Kiara is hot on her heels, also

diverting her gaze.

At least I know that Dad is definitely in

safe hands.

“Put some fucking pants on.” Alejandro growls as he frowns at me. 3

I raise my eyebrow. With all the fucking shit going on… is that all he can think of?

“Why? Not feeling insecure, right?” I taunt coldly. If the fucking situation wasn’t so dire, I’d have said more. My

mind is screaming at me to find Azura, to

go after her.

He scoffs. “You fucking wish.

“Yeah, whatever. I’m going to shift; I

need to go after her. This one’s the

fucking traitor.” I say, kicking Eric once.

stairs.

“Dante, Rayhan, and Raihana are

following the tracking device. Kiara gave Raihana a bracelet of Azura’s. They’ll try teleporting to her. In the meantime how about we find out why this fucker sold you the fuck out.” 2

As much as I wanted to go after her right now and I fucking would, Alejandro is right, we needed some answers… how

exactly Eric pulled this shit off was

fucking getting to me… How long had he planned this for?

I pull the pants on as Eric simply stares

into the distance. His jaw set tensely.

“So, who’s she?” Alejandro remarks,

glancing at Nikki, who is standing there

arms crossed.

“I’m Leo’s ex since Azura showed up. She says bluntly. Alejandro cocks a brow, looking between us, but says nothing.

“So was this because I was dating your mate?” I ask Eric quietly, trying to control my rage. Because of him, Azura is

gone.

He scoffs bitterly. “We found out we were mates years ago… but she always had her eyes on you. This isn’t because of one woman; she isn’t worth anything.” Eric sneers, “Karma has been served to her and in the end, even you dropped her.”

Nikki’s eyes flash as she glares at him with hurt and anger.

“You bastard.” She spits.

“Then why? Why did you fucking do this to me? Even Azura, you two were getting on, weren’t you?” I growl.

“Simply a façade.” Eric says calmly, “You can change your name, Leo, but you can’t change who your family are…”

I didn’t get it, I’ve always treated my people well… I am not the same… am I?

“But what have I done that hurt you, aside from what is Nikki’s fault? If I knew

you were her mate, I assure you I would never have gotten with her.” I say quietly. “All you had to do was approach me. But if this isn’t about her, then what? What

did I do?”

He still wears that uncaring, cold, contemptuous look on his face.

“What didn’t you do? You got everything the moment we left those caverns! There
