“Hey, ow, ow…”
“Shit, sorry, I forgot you’re hurt!” I quickly get off her, only for Winona to chuckle.
“Well, I’ll leave you two to it. Alpha Marcel needs me downstairs. Someone will pop in to do your hair and make-up soon,” she says with a small smile.
“My hair and make-up?” I ask. She pauses at the door andlooks over her shoulder at me.
“Of course. Alpha Marcel insisted that you have everything you need.”
The door shuts and I look at Song, planting my hands on my hips.
“What were you two discussing?”
“I don’t know, but… check the dress out…” She tilts her head towards the bed next to her, and my gaze falls on the top dress bag.
Unzipping it, I stare at the stunning dress that is inside. Somehow… this doesn’t feel like just any ordinary dinner party. Hmm, what is Marcel planning? He and Corrado, together thrown in with Winona, mean trouble. And although the Westwood Devil can handle trouble... I’m not so sure about a cherub, an angel, and an Alpha with a wish…Goddess, these three really are trying to get Leo and me together…
I tilt my head, an idea popping into my head. Well, even if they are just hoping for something that will never happen, I can’t throw out the chance to torture Leo. I mean sure, I am not as hot as Nikki, but thanks to the mate bond, he is attracted to me.
“Oh, you’re up to something…” Song replies, smiling slightly.
“Hmm, maybe…”
“Tell me what’s going through that naughty brain of yours…”
“I’m just thinking I might take a note out of Mama’s book, and show Little Alpha exactly how a Westwood woman rocks the colour red…”
Tonight, I plan to be the devil in red, and I will make the most of the mate bond to mess with him.
Oh, Little Weo, you are so damn screwed.
A Call
Leo
She played me fucking dirty and left. But despite the fucking beast she awoke within me, it was her words that really got to me.Although I’m not enough for you…If I wasn’t half as stubborn as I fucking am, I would have told her the truth that that shit ain’t true… but, that’s all there fucking is to it.
I feel lighter getting that over with, and it reminds me of the past when I at least had my father. It’s just a shame it’s too late for all of that to be back. Right? I am delaying… I know I am far past the stage of Kiara being able to help me, but I don’t think I want to hear it. Even if I already know the truth.
I push the thought away thinking back to the moment between Azura and Corrado. Corrado has only ever said ‘I love you’ to three people before now: Dad, Winona, and me. It hit hard… he has taken to her. I don’t need any more fucking signs that she is meant for me.
That hatred I felt… even the word Elites… it all seems so fucking far in the past…
I walk to the bottom of the garden of the mansion and pull out my phone.Time to ring Alejandro.I smoke my cigarette while looking down at my phone. Although I don’t want to hear his cocky comebacks right now, I can’t delay it. I find his number and hit call. He answers after a few rings.
“Leo.” His voice is level, yet it is obvious he is happy to get this damn call.
“Alejandro,” I reply.
“I’m getting lucky with all the calls. How are you?”Not so fucking good.
“Perfect.”
“Good to hear. How’s your son, or should I say, my grandson?” I frown, obviously that wasn’t going to stay a secret forever.
“Stop acting like I consider you anything close to a father,” I reply icily, refusing to answer his question. “I called for a reason.”
“You always fucking do.”Just get it over with, Leo…
