King Alejandro: The Return Of Her Cold-Hearted Alpha

31 The Ardens 

KIARA

Mom, Dad and Azura had left just after food, whilst Kataleya had been very quiet. When Azura had said the boy was annoying, she asked if Azura had visited. She became upset but said nothing. She had silently gone and sat with Ahren and Tatum, but refused to play with Skyla or Azura. Kataleya was a sweet girl who could be just as stubborn as Mom when she wanted to

Alejandro hadn’t said anything when he found out I took Enrique out, I just hoped it was because he realised that he needed some space to breathe and that he was, after all, just a child. I had just gotten changed for the evening in a satin strapless black dress, paired with red heels, nails and lips. It was hard to dress up and act like everything was ok when it wasn’t. Delsanra and Dante were still suffering. That monster was still out there.

I ran the straightener through my hair, straightening my hair until it fell sleekly over my shoulder. Once I had finished, I tied it up in a high pony and pinned it into place. “Ready?” Alejandro asked, stepping into the bedroom, fully dressed and looking incredible in a white shirt and black pants.

“Yes.” I answered, standing up. His eyes raked over me, shimmering red with approval as he closed the gap between us and grabbed my hips, pulling me against him. I gasped, my hands splayed on his chest, and looked up at him as my entire body reacted to his touch. His eyes burned into mine, igniting that molten pleasure deep within my core.

“We have guests awaiting us.” I reminded him breathlessly, despite my pounding heart. “They are five minutes from pack territory.” He murmured. “And I just want to ruin you in every f*****g way.” He ran his fingers through my hair, and I knew that he wanted to yank it free from the perfect pony I had created. “It’s going to take us five minutes to get to the packhouse,” I replied pointedly, reaching up and kissing him softly. Pulling away before he could deepen it, I turned to grab my bag when he took hold of my wrist and yanked me back into his arms.

“Are you angry?” “A little.” I admitted, reaching up I cupped his face. “No matter who his father is, he is no monster.”

He frowned and gave a small nod.

“I know that. I’m just being careful because I can’t f*****g risk anything happening to anyone who is under my care again.”

“He’s currently under your care too.” I countered softly.

His eyes flashed, and I felt his aura surge around him, blanketing the room with a heavy

“Look. I don’t want to f*****g argue with you, but push me one more f*****g time and I swear I won’t let you see that pup ever again.” His words cut me like a knife, and for a moment it felt like someone had cut off my supply of air. The anger in his eyes was unmasked and from the way his fists were clenched, I knew he was trying not to break something.

There was no point in arguing, we were never going to agree.

“The Ardens are waiting.” I replied, walking past him and to the door. I opened it and headed to the stairs, not waiting for him, although he caught up pretty fast. The house was silent, the children were in the living room with the rest of the family. I popped my head in and blew them a kiss. “We’re off.” I gave a small smile, masking how I truly felt. “I’ll have the kids in bed.” Maria promised.

“Thank you.”

His golden blond hair was styled sleekly, and he was completely clean-shaven, with eyes that were such a pale blue they looked almost silver. He wore a navy suit with a silver tie and not even one crease seemed to ruffle his appearance. He was tall and well-built, and his strong aura surrounded him. Next to him was a woman who
