Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

118. Her Struggle

AZURA.

We ring the doorbell and it’s opened by Mishiko, the smell of home-cooked pizza wafts past my nose.

Oh, damn, this smells so good!

“Damn, who’s cooking?” I say, rubbing my tummy. Mishiko smiles.

“Sera.” She replies, stepping aside and letting us enter.

“Are Ace and Jin here?” I ask as Leo brushes my wet locks off my face. My hair still isn’t dry from my shower.

“Yes, we are.” Ace says popping his head through the door.

“Self-invited.” Kareena says, cocking a brow pointedly at Ace.

“You practically keep my woman half the time, so I’m welcome.” He says dismissively, and Sera frowns at him as Kareena’s brows furrow and she disappears back into the kitchen.

She looks awful, her shoulders stick out like blades, and she’s lost a lot of weight.

But before I can worry about anyone else, I have a bone to pick with my mate. I place my hands on my non-existent waist and glare at Leo.

“Where’s Jax and Li Sheng at?” Jin asks.

“We never knew this was a party.” Dan remarks.

“Whatever… So, there was an entire party going on here and if I didn’t ask to come along, you would have eaten pizza without me?” I ask Leo accusingly.

“No, seriously, I didn’t fucking know all these bastards were going to be here.” Leo says and I give him a dirty look.

“I don’t care if you did or not, you should have invited me.” I grumble, making Ace smirk.

“Answer to the missus now Leo.” He says, but I get distracted as I spot Kareena through the archway to the kitchen.

I see someone else in her. As she slowly runs her finger along the counter, her eyes cast downwards and her dark brown locks fall in front of her face. My gaze dips to her stomach. She’s not as big as me but she’s showing
