Page 122 of Her Cold-Hearted Alpha: Part 2

I raised one hand to her cheek, brushing it softly, as I looked down at her plump, pink coated lips.

"I have to say… You yourself look incredibly sexy…" She whispered, biting her lip as she ran her hands over my chest until she wrapped them around my shoulders.

"Good to know." I replied. Her body was moulded completely against me, and I was fucking feeling the heat rushing south as all I wanted was to kiss her senseless. I cupped the back of her neck claiming her lips with mine. She gasped against my lips before kissing me back.

The sweet taste of her mouth was like a fucking intoxicating drug, and it took my all not to fucking groan in pleasure. Our lips moved in sync, like a dance that we had perfected. She sighed softly and it only made me hold her tighter. Her heart was racing and I didn’t give a fuck that all eyes were on us. She was mine and I was hers. And I wanted everyone to fucking know.

She gasped for air, and I broke away, when I smelt the first hint of her arousal. My eyes darkened as I looked into her vibrant purple ones. I smirked as I bent closer, my lips grazing her ear.

"As much as I want to carry on… Amore Mio… I’d rather I be the only one to be able to smell how intoxicating you are…" I whispered into her ear, letting my tongue flick out.

She gasped at my move, her blush only darkening. I smirked in amusement, my nose grazing her cheek. This was how I wanted my life, forever… with her by my side. Forever.

I was brought out of my thoughts as Rafael came over.

"You look beautiful, Kiara." He said, taking her hand and kissing it gently. He gave me an annoying grin and I knew he was trying to irritate me. Shame. I knew he thought of Kiara as a niece for far too long. He wiggled his brows at me and I raised an eyebrow. When he realised it wasn’t going to work, he dropped her hand gently.

"Thank you, you look good too." Kiara replied, ever the polite one. I held her close, kissing her bare shoulder softly. My eyes took in the shimmer that coated her body. I couldn’t wait to undress her…

Elijah and Scarlett approached us. Elijah let go of Scarlett and looked at Kiara. I couldn’t read the emotions that stormed his eyes, as he held his arms out to her.

"Not going to give your dad a hug?" He asked quietly.

"Dad…" She whispered, pulling away from me and rushing into her dad’s arms.

He hugged her tightly, as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"You look beautiful, Angel." He whispered, kissing the side of her head.

Scarlett watched them with a slightly sad expression on her face, and I realised this was it. For them, they weren’t only giving her away, but she would lose that pack link with them. That connection…

The thought fucking sucked, and I prayed the Moon Goddess never gave me a daughter because I now understood those emotions that I saw in Elijah’s eyes, and they didn’t seem like something I ever wanted to experience.

"I’ll always be here for you, even if you don’t need me anymore. Just remember you always have your dad on your side." He whispered quietly to her.

"Don’t say that, I will always need you." She whispered, her voice breaking.

"Don’t make her cry, come on guys." Scarlett said, trying not to cry herself as she took a deep breath, fanning her face.

I clenched my jaw as the father-daughter duo broke apart. Kiara looked at me, her eyes filled with unshed tears and her hand still on her father’s shoulder.

Ok, I’m going to fucking say it. Fuck it. For Kiara. I looked Elijah in the eye, before exhaling.

"You know I’m way fucking stronger than you; you don’t need to worry about her. I’ll protect her with every fucking thing I have. Probably isn’t believable coming from a fucker like me, but you should at least know that when I say I’m going to do something, I do it. I can’t fucking guarantee that I’ll never hurt her… but I will try my fucking hardest not to. She’s become my world, my purpose to live, my everything…I do love her, even if that may be hard to believe." I said, looking away.

Maybe I fucking shouldn’t have said it... I saw Scarlett’s smile, as she brushed away her tears. Rafael’s shit-eating grin was annoying, but I made sure my face was as emotionless as ever as I looked at Elijah square in the eye…

KIARA

His words sent my heart into a frenzy, my eyes blurring. He didn’t even realise how much he had changed from the first time I met him. I watched him hide his emotions and my heart ached to go to him. I looked at dad, wishing he understood my baby wasn’t heartless.

To my surprise, he had a small smile on his face. He took my hand that rested on his shoulders and kissed it gently.

"I don’t really doubt that… I’ve seen the change Kiara’s brought into your life… and you do deserve to live that life… you are…" He took a deep breath as Alejandro looked at us, a flash of surprise in his eyes. "I always knew my Angel deserved the best… And I suppose she was destined for greatness... born to be a queen. Your queen. I know she’ll be taken care of. So I’ll admit it… that I don’t think there is anyone more suited for her than you…" Dad said, almost pouting as he said it.

Oh, goddess, these men… I smiled, thinking I actually loved their relationship. Dad looked at me and took my hand, moving it towards Alejandro’s.
