Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

Beautiful Bond Ch 9. Possessive

MARCEL.

“So, how did you find it?” I ask her once we were back on the road.

She nods, her blond locks bouncing a little. “I enjoyed myself. Everyone was really nice.” She blushes and I raise an eyebrow.

“And a bit much at times?”

She shakes her head. “Nope, it was nice.

Your family has always been pleasant to me, even when they visited the pack. They are genuine people.” She replies, playing with her hair.

“Good, but remember if there is something that bothers you, I’m always here for you.”

She nods, blushing again and I can’t help

but smirk at that.

“So, I see you enjoy talking about fashion and you always have loved picking out dresses. Have you ever considered it as a business venture?”

She looks at me; her face set in a thoughtful expression. “There’s not much I can do with just having an interest in it. Leo has said it to me too, but

I don’t think I want to. I’m happy minding the kids.”

“The kids will grow up.” I point out.

“They’ll have more kids.” She states. 2

“Fair enough. I don’t really know much about fashion, but there are several roads one can take from studying design, or simply having your own shop at the Pack. I’m sure many she-wolves would love to have the option to shop openly on pack grounds, rather than having to go to town. I don’t think Old Kim’s shop is ideal

She giggles at the mention of Kim’s thrift store that has some of the most horrid clothing I have ever come across, but I think it’s more of a pass time for Kim than anything else.

“She has some good nick knacks if you look deeper.”

Deeper…

I shake my head, removing the explicit image that had entered my mind and frown at my own thoughts, running a hand down my face. 1

I can’t really blame myself when she looks so tempting and has been on my mind for the last few months. Dreams are not enough… I push the thoughts away before I end up with a damn hard-on, and glare out at the road.

“You should still consider something for

yourself. Leo isn’t wrong, and you are still young. Either way, whether you do decide to go for something or not, you’re perfect.” I say. Reaching over, I give her hand a squeeze, not wanting to cross a boundary she isn’t ready for. I’m about to when her slender fingers curl let go around mine and she holds on gently.

I look at her, but she’s looking ahead, her cheeks a pretty hue of pink. She’s taking steps, and I’ll take mine. I raise her hand to my lips, kissing the smooth skin of her knuckles softly.

My wolf is restless, and he wants her as much as I do…

I ponder over what Alejandro said. Usually when people don’t have a wolf, they can’t mind link. It was always assumed she just can’t shift, rather than not having a wolf… however, her being able to blend in with a room full of powerhouses was indeed intriguing, it’s not like I have marked her yet. 4

She whispers, and I can see the tears pooling in her eyes. She turns and I’m about to reach for her when she shakes her head.
