King Alejandro: The Return Of Her Cold-Hearted Alpha

19. His Punishment KIARA ” Kataleya ! ” I jolted upright looking around in the darkness , panic and fear consuming me . Was she ok ? Did she get out safe ? Where Sparks tingled through me when an arm wrapped around me . ” She’s safe . ” Alejandro’s soothing voice made my eyes shut in relief . ” We’re back home , Amore Mio. ” ” 

I let out a shuddering breath of relief , slumping against his chest , my heart pounding rapidly as I clutched onto his arm . Thank the goddess for that … I needed to see her . I looked around , wondering what time it was , it was still dark which meant it was still the middle of the night . Alejandro rubbed my back soothingly and I turned in his hold , feeling so protected in his strong arms . I kissed his chest softly , my lips brushing one of his pierced nipples making his heart rate spike , 1 looked up at him .

” I’m glad you got there in time . ” I whispered , gazing into his glowing red eyes . In this dark room , it was all I could see . ” You fucking scared me , Amore Mio. ” His husky voice came . ” I know … ” I reached up , cupping his face , the bristles of his stubble prickling my fingertips , a feeling I so loved … . ” I whispered , knowing I “

I’m sorry . ” worried him . ” Yeah ? Well , I’m not letting you off the hook so fucking quickly . ” His husky reply came , then he was kissing me . Passionately , deeply , hungrily … My entire body hummed at his touch , rivets of pleasure rushing straight to my core . His firm yet soft lips dominated mine completely , his hand gripping the back of my neck , his heart thudding as one with mine . I could barely breathe with the overwhelming emotions and love that I was feeling , his and mine intertwined as one .

He was here , Kataleya was safe , we were together … The moment he squeezed my ass , broke away gasping . As much as I wanted him , and that ache in my core was strong , I needed to see my babies first … ” I want to see the kids . ” I whispered cupping his face … ” Sure . ” I knew he was smirking from the tone in his voice , I could smell my own arousal clinging in the air . ” Light . ” He said clearly , the lights came on and I looked into the handsome face of my king .

I hugged him tightly and he stood up , his hands cupping my thighs . ” How do you feel ? ” ” Completely ok , just like I’ve had a good training session … ” I replied , frowning as I tried to remember what had happened . All I remembered was pain and fire … then the burning house … Kataleya …. I shook my head as he quietly opened the door ” What time is it ? ” I asked , making him glance over at the clock .

B ” Near three in the morning . ” ” I’ll be quick . ” I whispered , he followed as I first went to the girl’s room . ” Scarlett’s with them . 11 I nodded , slowly opening the door . Instantly I heard Mom wake up , her heart rate quickening . ” Kia ? ” She whispered . ” Mom . ” I replied , she switched the lamp on and I saw that Kataleya was sleeping in her arms , whilst two heads of black hair were on the other bed . I smiled at Mom , who looked so relieved to see me awake . I quickly hurried over to her , hugging her tightly . ” Thank the goddess . ” Her hushed voice came , kissing my cheek . I moved back looking at Kataleya . Clean , no bruises and seemingly at peace … I crouched down by the bed running my hand through her hair and kissing her forehead softly , closing my eyes as I rested my head against hers . She was safe , she was home …

through my hair . I looked into her soft sage green eyes , knowing she was doing her best to control her emotions … Growing up 1 often felt like Dad was too protective

” I said softly , she nodded cupping my face and I placed my hand over her pale one . ” Thank you for letting me go , I know it was hard for you too . ” 31 She didn’t reply , nodding , I knew she was

. For a few moments we remained like that , until Mom moved back wiping her tears . ” Goddess , Kia , I don’t cry .

over the place . I tucked her in slowly , careful not to disturb her , and caressed Skyla’s hair . She wasn’t the type to speak up about things that troubled her , I just hope she’d be ok . We all would need time to heal from this . I stood up . ‘ Baby , take Kataleya to

for tomorrow … I made my way down the hall to Dante’s room , whilst Alejandro took Kataleya to our room . I opened the door slowly , and as expected Dad was up in a flash , his eyes blazing in the dark . ” Kiara . ” ” Dad . ” I replied walking over to him , leaving the hallway door open to cast some light in this dark room . He hugged me tightly and I smiled up at him . ” How are you feeling ? ” ” I’m perfectly fine . ” I replied pulling away after a moment and going over to Dante , his aura filled the room . eyes fluttered Seems like his necklace was removed . His open , frowning as he looked around before realising it was me and a small smile graced his lips . ” Mama . ” ” Baby , ” I pulled him into my arms , wishing I could

too . ” I sat with him for a few moments settling him back down and promising that we’ll talk more in the morning before bidding both him and Dad goodnight . I returned to our bedroom , where Kataleya was fast asleep in our bed . The lights were on dimly and Alejandro was standing near the window which was slightly open , smoking a cigarette . My

… I did … ‘ ” I remember asking to see the crimson king … wasn’t I shown into an office ? Then what ? I placed a hand on my neck and shook my head . ” I can’t remember . ” I whispered . His frown deepened , his

Why the hell couldn’t I remember ? This was frustrating , they must have done something . ” So , they’ve made sure you forgot everything that you saw or some shit like that . When I saw you , you were a fucking mess , they did a number

home , she’s safe . Let’s not think about it . ” I pleaded , tilting my head back to look up at him . ” I saw you fucking near death , Amore Mio I can’t just not think about that shit . We can’t just fucking pretend it never happened . ” He frowned but I didn’t reply , not wanting to argue there was nothing 1 could do about it

we were going to have to talk about it , but not when Kataleya was around , the last thing we needed was for her to see us argue . Despite his anger , his arms remained around me tightly , placing kisses along my neck , yet I could sense his emotions … ” Let’s get to bed . ” I said , softly pulling out of his arms . I walked over to the bed and slipped between the sheets , pulling Kataleya onto my arm and holding her tightly . I felt the bed dip when
