24. Moments Of Doubt ALEJANDRO ‘ No. I don’t remember . Her words rang in my head as she stared up at me , fear clear in her gorgeous eyes . I won’t fucking lie that my own heart was pounding as I pulled her into my arms , inhaling her intoxicating scent of hazelnut chocolate . I held her close , trying to control my own fucking storm of emotions .

Doesn’t remember … What the fuck did that even mean ? How could she fucking forget that Azura was not Scarlett and Elijah’s biological daughter ? That was not something fucking small ” Alejandro , is something wrong ? ” She asked . I knew she’ll be able to tell if I’m lying … ” Don’t worry too much , let’s head to bed , I need to leave early but I should be back by tomorrow evening . ” I said quietly .

” You didn’t answer the question , ” She replied , her heart thundering as abe pulled away from me . ” Amore Mio , things will be ok , maybe it’s just a side effect of him making you forget whatever the fuck happened when you went to the country house . ” I replied , trying to figure this shit out ..

” I don’t want to forget important things . ” She whispered , her hand on my chest . ” You won’t . ” I replied . Taking hold of her wrist , I kissed her knuckles softly . ” You won’t . ” I could hear the conviction in my voice as I reassured her , but the fear that I may be fucking wrong was beginning to eat up at me inside .

Just the thought of that happening made me pull her close , crushing her body against mine as I kissed her harder . , An hour later , after a round of het passionate sex , she had fallen asleep in my arms , yet I couldn’t fucking sleep . I was a fucking mess of worry . I needed her to be fucking ok … Maybe I was fucking overthinking it , maybe nothing like that was going to happen , and maybe I just needed to chill the fuck out .

I slowly untangled my arms from around the gorgeous bombshell in my arms and got out of bed slowly , pulling on my discarded boxers and sweatpants . Grabbing my lighter and a cigarette packet , I left the room . I needed to talk to Elijah , even if I fucking smelled of sex I didn’t really care . ‘ Meet me on the back patio . ‘ I mind linked him . Despite being able to mind link other Alpha’s , it still fucking gave me a slight headache . Moments later , Elijah stepped out , and I smirked , not missing the hickeys around his neck that peeped out from his T – shirt . His wet hair fell in his eyes..
