Failings.

(Fraction>>

I have been fighting with Leo for weeks now, ever since we got back and found out Anna wasn’t going to wake up anytime soon. He started blaming me, I made him stay quiet, I made him stay in the background, he’s of the firm belief that if he had taken over, we would have been out of there before they hurt our mate. My anger at Leo kept bubbling out into my life, I destroyed my office, I ripped about a coffee shop and I’m sure James’s SUV is no longer drivable. I’m not sure at what point Leo took over, one second, I was ripping a chair apart with my hands. and the next I was watching myself throw a coffee maker through a window.

Leo put up a good fight when they tried to cage us. I was begging him not to hurt my men, but he wouldn’t listen, Rick got the worst of it, and I hope he’s ok. He hasn’t been down to see me since they locked the cell door, I hope that has more to do with Eliza than me. I kept feeling an itch in my brain that I couldn’t scratch. I think it was someone trying to use our mind link but with Leo in control he was blocking it.

Just when I had resigned myself to being in the cell with Leo in control, she came strolling in with zero fear. Anna, my beautiful little. wolf, round with my pup I can honestly say I have never seen anything so beautiful in all my life. Once she had coaxed Leo into letting me. out, I refused to come out of the cell, I’m ashamed of what I did and at how easily I let Leo take over. I am Alpha, I should have more control than this. I think the idea of losing Anna and our pup was just too much, I let it weigh me down.

“Are you coming out today?” I hear from across the cells. Anna hast woken up and she looks so much better. Her hair is messy from

“I need to make sure I have Leo under control first.” I don’t want to hurt her or our pup, I could never forgive myself.

“Leo won’t be an issue now, we have an understanding now.” I laugh a

little at this.

“You think you have an understanding with my wolf?” I say to her between laughs.

“Don’t laugh, I will have you know me, and Leo are basically besties now.”

“Oh, is that right little wolf?” I say walking over to the bars and putting my hands in my jean pockets.

“It is. He would never hurt me or our pup. Would you?” I can’t believe she just asked that.

“Of course, I wouldn’t!” I say quickly.

“Good, I unlocked the cage while you slept. I’m going to shower then I need to see Doctor Lee for a baby scan. Join me if you’re not too scared.” With that she leaves the cells and heads upstairs.
