Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Island Escape

A hand reached out, plucking the glass from my fingers just as I was about to take a sip. I turned, startled, to find Leo standing beside me with a raised eyebrow.

“I don’t think so, sweetheart,” he said, bringing the cocktail to his own lips and draining it in one swift motion.

“Leo! I was going to drink that,” I protested, watching as he set the empty glass back on the bar.

His eyes fixed on mine with a mixture of concern and amusement. “Did you forget something important?”

I stared at him blankly for a moment before realization crashed over me. Pregnant. I was pregnant. Heat rushed to my face as I remembered that alcohol was off-limits now.

“Oh,” I said quietly, feeling foolish. “I completely forgot.”

Leo’s expression softened. “Good thing I was here then.”

“Thank you,” I said sincerely, grateful that he’d stopped me before I made a mistake. “I guess I’m still getting used to the idea.”

“Understandable. You’ve had a lot on your mind.” His eyes flicked to the dance floor, where guests continued to celebrate. “Speaking of which, where have you been hiding? I looked for you earlier.”

I shifted uncomfortably, aware that my absence had been noticed. “I was just... around.”

Leo snorted. “Around? Try again, Hazel. You disappeared with the triplets for nearly an hour.”

“I didn’t think anyone would notice,” I admitted, unable to meet his eyes.

“I always notice when you’re not in the room.” His voice dropped lower, more intimate. “I find myself watching you whenever you’re around.”

My breath caught at the sincerity in his tone. Leo had always been difficult to read—sarcastic and aloof one moment, unexpectedly warm the next. But right now, there was no mistaking the genuine emotion in his eyes.
