Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire

Chapter 50

50. A Devil in Red a

The entire mansion was abuzz, I had never fucking seen it so alive. Marcel didn’t really host parties, and those that did take place would be in the Pack Hall.

“Leo, Corrado, ah, you are both ready.” Marcel said, coming over, wearing a pair of beige pants and a black shirt.

“Care to share what exactly this party is for?”

“For Azura!” Corrado added.

“Yeah… I get that.” I said tugging his cheek before looking at Marcel seriously, mind linking him. ‘But the reason? She’s not a part of this pack, and neither are we… a couple.‘

‘No seems not, or not officially, but she is still carrying your child. A part of this pack’s future. ‘He replied through the link.

“The pack knows that.‘

‘Exactly, and so we are celebrating that.‘ Marcel said with a small smirk just as we heard the sound of heels running over.

“Alpha Marcel I have the last of them. Sorry, I’m late.” Winona’s breathless voice came.

We both turned to see Winona holding a small box. She was wearing a one–sleeved ruched fitted black dress that reached just below her knees, with her hair curled. She looked incredibly different than usual, that for a moment I didn’t recognise her. Sure her make–up was light but for one, I had never seen her in black since she always wore neutral colours, and she was always without make–up.

“Oh wow Winnie! You look so beautiful.” Corrado complimented her, making her blush.

“Thank you, Corrado.” She said, smiling gently at him before turning to Marcel, who seemed to be even more surprised than me.

“Yes, you do… Wow, I didn’t even recognise you. See, I told you you’d look great, although you exceeded even my expectations.” He murmured, looking her over, which only made her shy away. 9

I raised an eyebrow, clearing my throat as I coughed lightly, placing my fist in front of my mouth.

Marcel looked at me sharply, before shaking his head and looking down at the box she was holding.

“Thanks…” He said before Winona hurried away. “Ah… yes, I need to go put this away…” He frowned slightly, shaking his head, and walked off.

What the fuck was that? 4

Corrado giggled before he ran out to the back garden.

That was fucking weird…

I needed a drink, I looked around, ready to head out to the back garden when her scent suddenly hit me. Intoxicating, alluring, and so fucking seductive…

Fuck

I knew if I turned, I was only going to fucking make it harder for myself.

‘Just turn. She looks incredible.‘ Jax’s voice came, and I glanced back to see him walking down the hall towards me. Dressed in navy pants and a white shirt.

I glanced towards the steps, freezing when my eyes fell on her, my breath catching in my throat. My heart raced in my chest, my eyes flashing as they trailed over her, drinking up her appearance hungrily.

From those red–soled black heels, up her sexy legs that were glistening with a gold shimmer. She wore a satin blood–red two–toned dress that was ruched from the middle, accentuating her killer curves. Her hand ran down her hip almost as if smoothening her dress, or emphasising how fucking hot she looked. She wore a few rings, and her nails painted the same shade as her dress. The neckline to her dress was dipped showing off her sexy cleavage and every inch of her skin glistened just like her legs. Her breasts rose and fell making me want to ravage her right now…

I looked up at her face, and if I wasn’t fucking gone before…

Her black hair was curled, falling over her one eye, her make–up was sultry and dark, and those matt red lips were begging to be devoured.

Our eyes met, ice blue against bright blue, her heart pounding. No one else mattered or existed as they all faded away. It was just the two of us… We were being pulled together by this fucking intense chemistry between us.

She didn’t look like heaven, because she was far too fucking hot for heaven to ever be able to handle. Only Hell could handle this level of heat, temptation, and sin that she was exuding.

She was the fucking epitome of sexiness, and I was ready to bend the knee if it meant I could have her until my last breath… 4

She reached the bottom, and although I saw her eyes run over me, and her erratic heartbeat, she didn’t speak even a word to me, and instead turned to Jax.

“Hi.” She said to him.

“Hey, you look incredible, you both do.” Jax said to them both, as Azura raised her hand, running her fingers through her curled locks My eyes fell on her back, and I realised she was wearing a gold upper armband that looked fucking hot…

“Thanks.” Song said with a smile.

“Aww thank you, Jax.” Azura added, her voice holding a hint of seduction.

So, she was going to play like that? With my own fucking men? 3

Irritation seeped through me, and the urge to hide her from the fucking world tempted me.

I don’t fucking think so.

I was about to speak when the sound of footsteps reached my ears, the front door opened, and three familiar scents filled my nose. One of them only making my irritation heighten.

Azura looked behind me, her eyes shadowing, before she looked away.

“Hey, guys.” Eric’s voice came, and I turned to see him with both Jackie and Nikki. Jackie was

dressed in a simple dress, whilst Nikki had obviously tried her hardest…

She was now watching me, her heart racing.

‘Like what I’m wearing?‘ She asked suggestively through the link.

I frowned about to reply when Jackie walked over to Azura. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

“Azura, can I have a word?” She whispered just as Azura was turning to leave with Song.

“Sure.” Azura said, drawing my attention back to her.

Fuck, did she have to look so fucking good?

They walked to the side, my eyes on Azura’s ass.

Damn, I fucking needed to get laid.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry for everything he did to you. Forgive me?” Jackie whispered. She was speaking silently, but I could hear her still despite the music.

Azura tilted her head, her glossy locks just itching to be played with.

“You didn’t do anything wrong. It’s fine.” She said smiling gently. “It’s really ok. Please don’t worry.”

“Thank you.” Jackie replied as both women embraced.

“Stay strong.” Azura whispered just as a sudden wave of heat washed over me, but it vanished as soon as it came. 3

“I won’t forgive him. I will reject him.” Jackie whispered, her voice breaking. 1

“Rejections won’t break us, we will come out of this stronger.” Azura replied as she moved back

“Thanks.” Jackie said, smiling at her.

I frowned, wondering what had happened to me moments earlier. 7

“Come on, let’s go outside.” Azura said to Jackie, motioning Song over.

She didn’t spare any of us a further glance as she left, hand in hand with Song, her other hand on Jackie’s back.

“Wow, the Luna is angry with me?” Eric asked quietly.

“She isn’t the Luna, Eric.” Nikki said sharply. 6

“She bears our Alpha’s mark, so she is.” He replied firmly. For someone who was always welcoming, he seemed a little hostile towards her, not that I fucking cared. 3

Either something was in the fucking air, or my senses were on overdrive.

I turned, leading the way out back, not wanting to spend an extra minute in Nikki’s presence. She really fucking didn’t get the damn fucking hint. 1

‘You know, I’m glad you dumped her, although it took you two years.‘ Jax remarked through

the link. 1

‘Yeah, and just so we’re clear, stay away from Azura, she’s mine.‘ I growled back. 7

I frowned in shock at my own words, as my eyes met Jax’s who simply smirked. 2

What the actual fuck was going on with my mood? •

My eyes found her, her scent reaching my nose, and I inhaled deeply watching her talking to Winona and Corrado.

Was it just me or was it too fucking hot out here?

“Leo-”

Nikki’s hand touched my shoulder and in a flash, I had grabbed it, ripping it off me.

“I have been fucking patient with you, so before I have you thrown out of here… get the fuck away from me.” I growled. 4

Silence seemed to fall over the garden of people, and I could feel all eyes on me, but I didn’t really fucking care… The hatred that was coursing through me felt stronger than ever. 2

Nikki’s eyes filled with tears as she tried to tug free.

“You’re hurting me, Leo.”

“Then don’t fucking touch me.” I replied venomously, letting go of her.

I turned away only for my eyes to meet with Azura’s. She was frowning slightly as she watched me with concern, her eyes a blinding silver.

The predatorial growl of my wolf filled my head as I looked at her.

I needed her… No. I fucking wanted her. 3

My mind felt murky.

Claim her so the world fucking knew she was mine… 2

Suddenly time that had seemed to slow down returned to normal, and the rush of sound surrounding me returned; chattering, laughing and the music.

“Leo?” Jax asked quietly, now concerned.

I glanced at him frowning, before motioning a member of staff over, taking a glass of wine from the tray.

“Since we’re at a party… drink up.” I said casually, downing my glass in one.

My eyes once again found Azura… 13
