We would find him for sure.
That was the confidence that the council held more than I did but I still felt like we were missing something big, with all my technology and the number of people I had on the job, not only from the pack but from my cartel… it was fucking weird that there was still nothing. Even reaching out to my trusted Allies… I just had to stay fucking positive.
“Would you like someone from the coven to come and place protective barriers around your pack?” Xavier, the man from the coven, asked me.
“I’m making sure no one steps out of or into this pack unless with complete security, as long as we are on pack premises, he can’t get in even if he tries. I appreciate the offer.” I replied confidently, giving him a nod of thanks. I didn’t really expect them to offer, but something about my own words made me frown.
He escaped from the holding centre, but instead of escaping, he came to the pack… for Azura…
Why did he fucking want her so much…
Could it somehow be to do with her ability? Or was that me just over analysing shit? I mean how the fuck would he have known when her powers were pretty much dormant?
“I have a question Leo, how exactly did you cross paths with someone so dangerous that now those around you are at risk? Care to share?” Elijah asked seriously.
“Actually Elijah-” I raised my hand and cut Alejandro off.
I did not want Azura’s name in this shit, and I did not need him to defend me. “That’s none of your fucking business,” I replied coldly.
“It is our business when it involves my sister and his daughter. You are putting her life at risk because of your actions.” Liam growled, “Liam.” Elijah warned, but the younger man simply shook his head.
“If anything happens to her because of you…” He left his threat open, and I scoffed. “You’ve hurt her enough.”
“Maybe if you were a better fucking brother, she wouldn’t have gotten hurt.” I countered arrogantly; he’d probably think I’m talking about what I did to her but I meant Judah… “You’re so-“
“Ladies.” Alejandro smirked, “Let’s not fight like a bunch of women, if you want to talk this shit out, I would be up to see a one-on-one match.”
A few chuckled but I didn’t bother with them, this was my fight now, I’m the fucking shield between the world and Azura.
A few petty insults and accusations were not going to fuck with my head when I had my Psycho Queen by my side.
“I’ll take care of my woman; you can back the fuck off.” I said quietly, glaring at the blond man.
“Watch it, Leo, you still have a long way to go.” Liam snarled.
“No shit.” I remarked smoking my cigarette carelessly knowing I was just pissing him off.
“Leo, please.” Dad sighed as Rayhan smirked slightly.
“We’ll have everything figured out; I am actually out with a team right now.” He said, “We’ll get to the bottom of this and catch Judah.”
“And the fucker’s out too.” Alejandro added, referring to Dante.
“We are yet to have the honour of meeting the Alpha Prince.” Kenneth remarked.
Alejandro shrugged, “He doesn’t really like to fucking mix.”
Kenneth was obviously disappointed. “Well, I will look into the information you have requested immediately, Alpha Alejandro. It was indeed a pleasure to have met the Alpha of Shadows, that we have so much yet to learn about… I will look forward to seeing you at more meetings… I presume we will see you of course?”
“My father will retain his position as a member of the council, even after I take over the Sangue Pack.” I replied clearly.
Like fuck you want to know about me you fucking weirdo.
He raised an eyebrow before nodding, and I reached forward,
“Have a good evening.” With that, I left the meeting and snapped my laptop shut. I frowned deeply, running a hand through my hair.
What the fuck was Judah?
What was I missing?
I sat back smoking, just when my phone rang. Taking it out of my pocket I frowned seeing it was Jin.
“Yeah?” I asked.
“We have a code red situation regarding the drugs we sold.”
“What is it?” I asked, my heart racing as I stood up.
Jin exhaled, “You might want to sit down.”
“Spit it out,” I growled.
“They’ve been tampered with Leo, people are dying.”
LEO.
“Meet me at headquarters.” I said coldly.
Despite the shock his words had caused me, my voice was in control.
There was no way those drugs were tainted, I had got the best of the fucking best, I had checked them myself, as well as getting… Shane to check it all… that shipment had been completely fucking fine.
I left the office swiftly heading downstairs when I saw Azura nibbling on a handful of freshly cooked, homemade chips. I could hear the oil sizzling in the kitchen, and the quiet hum told me Rosaline was here. Dad did say he’d ask her to move in as Corrado loved her cooking, I wondered if he thought this would be a permanent thing.
I didn’t fucking know what we were going to do yet, but I’d deal with that when things weren’t so fucking hectic.
